3-1. Ignition Switch (Models

without Push-Button Start

System)

s03aa

WARNING

. Never turn the ignition switch to

“LOCK” while the vehicle is being

driven or towed because that will

lock the steering wheel, prevent-

ing steering control. And when

the engine is turned off, it takes a

much greater effort than usual to

steer.

. Before leaving the vehicle, al-

ways remove the key from the

ignition switch for safety and

never allow an unattended child

to remain in the vehicle. Failure to

follow this procedure could re-

sult in injury to a child or others.

Children could operate the power

windows, the moonroof or other

controls or even make the vehicle

move.

CAUTION

Do not attach a large key holder or

key case to either key. If it banged

against your knees or hands while

you are driving, it could turn the

ignition switch from the “ON” posi-

tion to the “ACC” or “LOCK” posi-

tion, thereby stopping the engine.

Also, if the key is attached to a

keyholder or to a large bunch of

other keys, centrifugal force may act

on it as the vehicle moves, resulting

in unwanted turning of the ignition

switch.

The ignition switch has four positions:

LOCK, ACC, ON and START.

NOTE

. Keep the ignition switch in the

“LOCK” position when the engine is

not running.

. Using electrical accessories for a

long time with the ignition switch in the

“ON” or “ACC” position can cause the

battery to go dead.

. If the ignition switch will not move

from the “LOCK” position to the “ACC”

position, turn the steering wheel

slightly to the left and right as you turn

the ignition switch.

& Key Positions

s03aa11

Position Description

LOCK

The key can only be inserted

or removed in this position.

The ignition switch will lock

the steering wheel when you

remove the key.

ACC

In this position the electrical

accessories (audio, acces-

sory power outlet, etc.) can be

used.

This is the normal operating

position after starting the en-

gine.

START

The engine is started in this

position.

CAUTION

Do not turn the ignition switch to the

“START” position while the engine

is running.

the engine, pull out the key once (the

security indicator light will blink), and

then insert the key again and turn it to

the “START” position again to restart

the engine.

. The engine may not start in the

following cases:

– The key grip is touching another

key or a metallic key holder.

– The key is near another key that

contains an immobilizer transpon-

der.

– The key is near or touching

another transmitter.

tion Indicator Light

s03ae04

CAUTION

If the CHECK ENGINE warning light/

malfunction indicator light illumi-

nates while you are driving, have

your vehicle checked/repaired by

your SUBARU dealer as soon as

possible. Continued vehicle opera-

tion without having the emission

control system checked and re-

paired as necessary could cause

covered by your vehicle’s warranty.

If this light illuminates steadily or blinks

while the engine is running, it may indicate

that there is at least one problem or

potential problem somewhere in the emis-

sion control system.

! If the light illuminates constantly

s03ae0401

If the light illuminates constantly while

driving or does not turn off after the engine

starts, an emission control system mal-

function has been detected.

You should have your vehicle checked by

an authorized SUBARU dealer immedi-

ately.

NOTE

This light also illuminates when the fuel

filler cap is not tightened until it clicks.

If you have recently refueled your vehicle,

the cause of the CHECK ENGINE warning

light/malfunction indicator light coming on

could be a loose or missing fuel filler cap.

Remove the cap and retighten it until it

clicks. Make sure nothing is interfering with

the sealing of the cap. Tightening the cap

will not make the CHECK ENGINE warn-

ing light/malfunction indicator light turn off

immediately. It may take several driving

trips. If the light does not turn off, take your

vehicle to your authorized SUBARU dealer

immediately.

! If the light is blinking

s03ae0402

& Oil Pressure Warning

Light

s03ae06

CAUTION

Do not operate the engine with the

oil pressure warning light on. This

may cause serious engine damage.

If this light illuminates when the engine is

running, it may indicate that the engine oil

pressure is low and the lubricating system

is not working properly.

If the light illuminates while driving or does

not turn off after the engine starts, stop the

engine at the first safe opportunity and

contact your nearest SUBARU dealer

immediately.

For details about checking the engine oil

level or adding the engine oil, refer to

“Engine Oil” �P521.

& Engine Low Oil Level

Warning Indicator

s03ae58

This indicator appears when the engine oil

level decreases to the lower limit.

If the warning indicator appears, check the

engine oil level on a level surface. When

the engine oil level is not within the normal

range, refill with engine oil. Refer to

“Engine Oil” �P521. After adding or

changing the engine oil, warm up the

engine and stop it on a level surface, then

start the engine after a lapse of 1 minute or

more. Confirm that the warning indicator

has turned off after the engine has started.

If the warning indicator does not turn off

after refilling the engine oil, or the indicator

appears even though the engine oil level is

within the normal range, have the vehicle

checked by a SUBARU dealer.

NOTE

. The oil level will be detected by the

system just after turning the ignition

switch to the “OFF” position. If the oil

level is below the lower limit when the

ignition switch is turned to the “ON”

position, the engine low oil level warn-

ing indicator will turn on.

. When the vehicle is parked on a

steep slope, the engine low oil level

warning indicator may not illuminate

even if the oil level is below the lower

limit to avoid erroneous lighting.

& AT OIL TEMP Warning

Light

s03ae07

If this light illuminates when the engine is

running, it may indicate that the transmis-

sion fluid temperature is too hot.

If the light illuminates while driving, im-

mediately stop the vehicle in a safe place

and let the engine idle until the warning

light turns off.

! Transmission control system warn-

ing

& Low Tire Pressure

Warning Light (U.S.-

Spec. Models)

s03ae08

When the ignition switch is turned to the

“ON” position, the low tire pressure warn-

ing light will illuminate for approximately 2

seconds to check that the tire pressure

monitoring system (TPMS) is functioning

properly. If there is no problem and all tires

are properly inflated, the light will go out.

Each tire, including the spare (if provided),

– CONTINUED –

Warning and Indicator Lights

185

Instruments and Controls

(188,1)

北米Model "A2620BE-A" EDITED: 2022/ 4/ 25

should be checked monthly when cold and

inflated to the inflation pressure recom-

mended by the vehicle manufacturer on

the vehicle placard or tire inflation pres-

sure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a

different size than the size indicated on the

vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure

label, you should determine the proper tire

inflation pressure for those tires.)

As an added safety feature, your vehicle

has been equipped with a tire pressure

monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates

a low tire pressure telltale when one or

more of your tires is significantly under-

inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire

pressure telltale illuminates, you should

stop and check your tires as soon as

possible, and inflate them to the proper

pressure. Driving on a significantly under-

inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and

can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also

reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,

and may affect the vehicle’s handling and

stopping ability.

Please note that the TPMS is not a

substitute for proper tire maintenance,

and it is the driver’s responsibility to

maintain correct tire pressure, even if

under-inflation has not reached the level

to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire

pressure telltale.

Your vehicle has also been equipped with

a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate

when the system is not operating properly.

The TPMS malfunction indicator is com-

bined with the low tire pressure telltale.

When the system detects a malfunction,

the telltale will flash for approximately one

minute and then remain continuously

illuminated. This sequence will continue

upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long

as the malfunction exists. When the mal-

function indicator is illuminated, the sys-

tem may not be able to detect or signal low

tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunc-

tions may occur for a variety of reasons,

including the installation of replacement or

alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that

prevent the TPMS from functioning prop-

erly. Always check the TPMS malfunction

telltale after replacing one or more tires or

wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the

replacement or alternate tires and wheels

allow the TPMS to continue to function

properly.

Should the warning light illuminate steadily

after blinking for approximately one min-

ute, have the system inspected by your

nearest SUBARU dealer as soon as

possible.

WARNING

If this light does not illuminate

briefly after the ignition switch is

turned on or the light illuminates

steadily after blinking for approxi-

mately one minute, you should have

your Tire Pressure Monitoring Sys-

tem checked at a SUBARU dealer as

soon as possible.

If this light illuminates while driving,

never brake suddenly. Instead, per-

form the following procedure. Other-

wise an accident involving serious

vehicle damage and serious perso-

nal injury could occur.

1) Keep driving straight ahead while

gradually reducing speed.

2) Slowly pull off the road to a safe

place.

If this light still illuminates while

driving after adjusting the tire pres-

sure, a tire may have significant

damage and a fast leak that causes

the tire to lose air rapidly. If you have

a flat tire, replace it with a spare tire

as soon as possible.

When a spare tire is mounted or a

wheel rim is replaced without the

original pressure sensor/transmitter

being transferred, the Low tire pres-

(189,1)

北米Model "A2620BE-A" EDITED: 2022/ 4/ 25

sure warning light will illuminate

steadily after blinking for approxi-

mately one minute. This indicates

the TPMS is unable to monitor all

four road wheels. Contact your

SUBARU dealer as soon as possible

for tire and sensor replacement and/

or system resetting. If the light

illuminates steadily after blinking

for approximately one minute,

promptly contact a SUBARU dealer

to have the system inspected.

CAUTION

The tire pressure monitoring system

is NOT a substitute for manually

checking tire pressure. The tire

pressure should be checked peri-

odically (at least monthly) using a

tire gauge. After any change to tire

pressure(s), the tire pressure mon-

itoring system will not re-check tire

inflation pressures until the vehicle

is first driven more than 20 mph (32

km/h). After adjusting the tire pres-

sures, increase the vehicle speed to

at least 20 mph (32 km/h) to start the

TPMS re-checking of the tire infla-

tion pressures. If the tire pressures

are now above the severe low pres-

sure threshold, the low tire pressure

warning light should turn off a few

minutes later. Therefore, be sure to

install the specified size for the front

and rear tires.

& ABS Warning Light

s03ae09

CAUTION

. If any of the following conditions

occur, we recommend that you

have the ABS repaired at the first

available opportunity by your

SUBARU dealer.

– The warning light does not

illuminate when the ignition

switch is turned to the “ON”

position.

– The warning light illuminates

when the ignition switch is

turned to the “ON” position,

but it does not turn off even

after starting the vehicle.

– The warning light illuminates

during driving.

. When the warning light is on (and

brake system warning light is

off), the ABS function shuts

down; however, the conventional

brake system continues to oper-

ate normally.

The ABS warning light illuminates together

with the brake system warning light if the

EBD system malfunctions. For further

details of the EBD system malfunction

warning, refer to “Brake System Warning

Light” �P188.

NOTE

If the warning light behavior is as

described in the following conditions,

the ABS may be considered normal.

. The warning light illuminates right

after the engine is started but turns off

immediately, remaining off.

. The warning light remains illumi-

nated after the engine has been started,

but it turns off while driving.

. The warning light illuminates during

driving, but it turns off immediately and

remains off.

When driving with an insufficient battery

voltage such as when the engine is jump

started, the ABS warning light may illumi-

nate. This is due to the low battery voltage

and does not indicate a malfunction. When

the battery becomes fully charged, the

light will turn off.

WARNING

Continued driving with the AWD

warning light flashing can lead to

powertrain damage. If the AWD

warning light flashes, promptly park

in a safe location and then check

whether all four tires are the same

diameter and whether any of the

tires has a puncture or has lost air

pressure for some other reason.

NOTE

If the temporary spare tire is used, the

AWD warning light may flash. Use of the

temporary spare tire should therefore

be restricted to the minimum time

necessary. Replace the temporary

spare tire with a conventional tire as

soon as possible.

This light flashes if the vehicle is driven

with tires of different diameters fitted on its

wheels or with the air pressure excessively

low in any of its tires.

& Power Steering Warn-

ing Light

s03ae53

While the engine is running, this warning

light illuminates when a malfunction has

been detected in the electric power steer-

ing system.

CAUTION

When the power steering warning

light is illuminated, there may be

more resistance when the steering

wheel is operated. Drive carefully to

the nearest SUBARU dealer and

have the vehicle inspected immedi-

ately.

NOTE

If the steering wheel is operated in the

following ways, the power steering

control system may temporarily limit

the power assist in order to prevent the

system components, such as the con-

trol computer and drive motor, from

overheating.

. The steering wheel is operated fre-

quently and turned sharply while the

vehicle is maneuvered at extremely low

speeds, such as while frequently turn-

ing the steering wheel during parallel

parking.

. The steering wheel remains in the

fully turned position for a long period of

time.

At this time, there will be more resis-

tance when steering. However this is

not a malfunction. Normal steering

force will be restored after the steering

wheel is not operated for a while and

the power steering control system has

an opportunity to cool down. However,

if the power steering is operated in a

non-standard way which causes power

assist limitation to occur too frequently,

that may result in a malfunction of the

power steering control system.

light

s03ae1401

CAUTION

The Vehicle Dynamics Control sys-

tem provides its ABS control

through the electrical circuit of the

ABS. Accordingly, if the ABS is

inoperative, the Vehicle Dynamics

Control system becomes unable to

provide ABS control. As a result, the

Vehicle Dynamics Control system

becomes inoperative, causing the

warning light to illuminate. Although

both the Vehicle Dynamics Control

and ABS are inoperative in this case,

the ordinary functions of the brake

system are still available. You will be

safe while driving in this condition,

but drive carefully and have your

vehicle checked at a SUBARU dealer

as soon as possible.

NOTE

. If the electrical circuit of the Vehicle

Dynamics Control system itself mal-

functions, the warning light only illumi-

nates. At this time, the ABS (Anti-lock

Brake System) remains fully opera-

tional.

. The warning light illuminates when

the electronic control system of the

ABS/Vehicle Dynamics Control system

malfunctions.

The Vehicle Dynamics Control system is

probably inoperative under any of the

following conditions. Have your vehicle

checked at a SUBARU dealer immedi-

ately.

. The warning light does not illuminate

when the ignition switch is turned to the

“ON” position.

. The warning light illuminates while the

vehicle is running.

NOTE

If the warning light behavior is as

described in the following examples,

the Vehicle Dynamics Control system

may be considered normal.

. The warning light illuminates right

after the engine is started but turns off

immediately and remains off.

. The warning light illuminates after

the engine has started and turns off

while the vehicle is subsequently being

driven.

! Tips for the high beam assist sys-

tem

s03ah0703

. The high beam assist function recog-

nizes the condition surrounding the vehicle

based on the brightness of illumination

ahead of your vehicle, etc. Therefore, the

headlight mode may switch in some

situations that do not match to the driver’s

sense.

. A bicycle or cargo cycle may not be

detected.

. Under the following situations, the

brightness of ambient illumination may

not be detected correctly and the high

3-13. Headlight Beam Leveler

s03at

The LED headlights produce more light

than conventional halogen headlights.

When the vehicle is carrying a heavy load

and the headlight beams are angled

upwards, the driver of an oncoming vehicle

may experience glare.

To prevent this, the automatic headlight

beam leveler adjusts the headlights to the

optimum height automatically depending

on the load the vehicle is carrying.

CAUTION

In certain circumstances, the head-

lights may become misaligned, and

the headlight beam leveler will not

reset them to the proper angle. This

may occur after transporting your

vehicle on a flat-bed truck, or if the

vehicle is parked and restarted on

different angles. In such cases, have

the headlight alignment checked by

a SUBARU dealer.

3-16. Wiper and Washer

s03am

WARNING

In freezing weather, do not use the

windshield washer until the wind-

shield is sufficiently warmed by the

defroster.

Otherwise the washer fluid can

freeze on the windshield, blocking

your view.

CAUTION

. Do not operate the washer con-

tinuously for more than 10 sec-

onds, or when the washer fluid

tank is empty. This may cause

overheating of the washer motor.

Check the washer fluid level fre-

quently, such as at fuel stops.

. Do not operate the wipers when

the windshield or rear window is

dry. This may scratch the glass,

damage the blade rubbers and

might cause the wiper motor to

fail. Before operating the wiper

on a dry windshield or rear win-

dow, always use the windshield

washer.

Turn Signal Lever

266

(269,1)

北米Model "A2620BE-A" EDITED: 2022/ 4/ 25

. In freezing weather, be sure that

the blade rubbers are not frozen

to the windshield or rear window

before switching on the wipers.

Attempting to operate the wiper

with the blade rubbers frozen to

the window glass could cause

not only the blade rubbers to be

damaged but also might cause

the wiper motor to fail. If the blade

rubbers are frozen to the window

glass, be sure to operate the

defroster, windshield wiper dei-

cer (if equipped) or rear window

defogger before turning on the

wiper.

. If the wipers stop during opera-

tion because of ice or some other

obstruction on the window, this

might cause the wiper motor to

fail even if the wiper switch is

turned off. If this occurs,

promptly stop the vehicle in a

safe location, turn the ignition

switch to the “LOCK”/“OFF” po-

sition and clean the window glass

to allow proper wiper operation.

. Use clean water if windshield

washer fluid is unavailable. In

areas where water freezes in

winter, use SUBARU Windshield

Washer Fluid or the equivalent.

Refer to “Windshield Washer

Fluid” �P540.

Also, when driving the vehicle

when there are freezing tempera-

tures, use non-freezing type wi-

per blades.

. Do not clean the wiper blades

with gasoline or a solvent, such

as paint thinner or benzine. This

will cause deterioration of the

wiper blades.

NOTE

. The windshield wiper motor is pro-

tected against overloads by a circuit

breaker. If the motor operates continu-

ously under an unusually heavy load,

the circuit breaker may trip to stop the

motor temporarily. If this happens, park

your vehicle in a safe location, turn off

the wiper switch, and wait for approxi-

mately 10 minutes. The circuit breaker

will reset itself, and the wipers will

again operate normally.

. Clean your blade rubbers and win-

dow glass periodically with a washer

solution to prevent streaking, and to

remove accumulations of road salt or

road film. Operate the windshield

washer for at least 1 second so that

washer solution will be sprinkled all

over the windshield or rear window.

. Grease, wax, insects, or other mate-

rial on the windshield or the wiper blade

results in jerky wiper operation and

streaking on the glass. If you cannot

remove the streaks after operating the

windshield washer or if the wiper

operation is jerky, clean the outer sur-

face of the windshield and rear window

using a sponge or soft cloth with a

neutral detergent or mild-abrasive clea-

ner. Do not, however, use detergent to

clean the blade rubbers. Use only a

sponge or soft cloth (and no neutral

detergent or mild abrasive cleaner)

when you clean the blade rubbers. If

you wipe the rubber of the blade

strongly, the black coating component

will peel off, which will cause the wiper

to judder. Also, after wiping it off, check

that the rubber has not come loose.

After cleaning the window glass and

wiper blade rubbers, be sure to rinse

them with clean water. Rinse the win-

dow until the water does not form

beads on the glass. This indicates that

the glass is clean.

the device during the “cycling” process

to prevent possible overheating.

Proceed with “Programming a New

HomeLink

button” step 4 to complete.

! Using HomeLink

s03ap100303

To operate, simply press and release the

programmed HomeLink

button. Activa-

tion will now occur for the trained device

(i.e. garage door opener, gate operator,

security system, entry door lock, home/

office lighting, etc.). For convenience, the

hand-held remote of the device may also

be used at any time.

! Erasing HomeLink

buttons

s03ap100304

To erase programming from the three

buttons (individual buttons cannot be

erased but can be “reprogrammed” as

outlined below), follow the step noted:

Press and hold the two outer HomeLink

buttons for at least 10 seconds. The LED

indicator will change from continuously lit

to rapidly flashing. Release both buttons.

Do not hold for longer than 20 seconds.

HomeLink

is now ready to be pro-

grammed at any time beginning with

“Programming a New HomeLink

button”

- step 1.

! Reprogramming a Single

HomeLink

button

s03ap100305

To program a previously trained button,

follow these steps:

1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink

button. DO NOT release the button.

2. The indicator light will begin to slowly

flash orange after 20 seconds. The

HomeLink

button can be released at this

point. Proceed with “Programming a New

HomeLink

button” - step 3.

3. If you do not complete the program-

ming of a new device to the button, it will

revert to the previously stored program-

ming.

! Garage Door Two-Way Commu-

nication

s03ap100306

HomeLink

has the capability of commu-

nicating with your garage door opener.

HomeLink

can receive and display “clos-

ing” or “opening” status messages from

compatible garage door opener systems.

At any time, HomeLink

can also recall and

display the last recorded status commu-

nicated by the garage door opener to

indicate your garage door being “closed”

or “opened”.

HomeLink

has the capability of receiving

this communication from the garage door

opener at a range up to 820 feet (250 m).

Range may be reduced by obstacles such

as houses or trees. You may have to slow

your vehicle speed to successfully receive

the garage door opener communication.

! Programming Two-Way Commu-

nication

s03ap100307

1) Status Indicators

Within 5 seconds after programming a new

HomeLink

button, both of HomeLink’s

garage door status indicators will flash

rapidly green indicating that the garage

door two-way communication has been

enabled. If your garage door status in-

dicators flashed, two-way communication

s03ap1104

1) Camera

. Make sure to clean the Smart Rearview

Mirror and the area around the camera

regularly. If these parts are not clean, the

screen cannot be seen clearly.

. Wipe off the Smart Rearview Mirror and

the area around the camera by using a dry

soft cloth. If the foreign matter cannot be

removed, first wipe the area off using a wet

soft cloth, and then wipe using a dry cloth.

. Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner

for cleaning. Doing so could result in

discoloration, deterioration, or malfunc-

tion.

. Make sure to clean the rear camera

lens regularly. When you clean the rear

camera lens, first soak a soft cloth with

diluted mild detergent to wipe it off, and

wipe using a dry cloth.

. During snowy weather, remove the

accumulated snow from around the anten-

na, because snow interferes with the

camera image on the mirror.

. When installing a roof box or a similar

accessory, do not block the area in front of

the camera lens to avoid interfering with

the camera image on the mirror.

. When the Smart Rearview Mirror’s

visibility is poor because there is dirt or

other foreign material adhering to the

camera, switch to the original rearview

mirror.

Mirror; check the rear visually if necessary.

Pay attention to traffic conditions for safe

driving.

. Adjust the brightness of the screen

appropriately. If the screen is too bright,

the driver’s eyes may get tired while

driving.

. The Smart Rearview Mirror sometimes

becomes hot. However, this is not a

malfunction.

! Gate Operator/Canadian Pro-

gramming

s03ap110803

Canadian radio-frequency laws require

transmitter remote signals to “time-out”

(or quit) after several seconds of transmis-

sion, which may not be long enough for

HomeLink to pick up the signal during

programming. Similar to this Canadian

law, some U.S. gate operators are de-

signed to “time-out” in the same manner.

The indicator LED on the hand-held

remote will go off when the device times

out, indicating that it has finished transmit-

ting.

If you live in Canada or you are having

difficulties programming a gate operator or

garage door opener by using the program-

ming procedures, replace “Programming a

following:

While the HomeLink indicator light is

flashing orange, press and release (“cy-

cle”) your device’s hand-held remote every

two seconds until the HomeLink indicator

light changes from orange to green. You

may now release the hand-held remote

button.

NOTE

If programming a garage door opener

WARNING

. When programming the

HomeLink

Wireless Control Sys-

tem, you may be operating a

garage door opener or other

device. Make sure that people

and objects are out of the way of

the garage door or other device

to prevent potential harm or da-

mage.

. Do not use the HomeLink

Wire-

less Control System with a gar-

age door opener that lacks the

safety stop and reverse feature

as required by applicable safety

standards. A garage door opener

which cannot detect an object,

signaling the door to stop and

reverse, does not meet these

safety standards. Using a garage

door opener without these fea-

tures increases risk of serious

injury or death. For more infor-

mation, consult the HomeLink

website at

Subaru or call 1-800-355-3515.

mirror switch continuously, it may not

work. This is not a malfunction. Operate

after waiting for a short period of time.

. The outside mirrors can be operated

(folded or unfolded) manually for ap-
