& Driving with Pets

s00ad10

Unrestrained pets can interfere with your

driving and distract your attention from

driving. In a collision or sudden stop,

unrestrained pets or cages can be thrown

around inside the vehicle and hurt you or

your passengers. Besides, the pets can be

hurt under these situations. It is also for

their own safety that pets should be

properly restrained in your vehicle. Re-

strain a pet with a special traveling harness

which can be secured to the rear seat with

a seatbelt or use a pet carrier which can be

secured to the rear seat by routing a

seatbelt through the carrier’s handle.

Never restrain pets or pet carriers in the

front passenger’s seat. For further infor-

mation, consult your veterinarian, local

animal protection society or pet shop.

& Tire Pressures

s00ad11

Check and, if necessary, adjust the pres-

sure of each tire and the spare (if

equipped) at least once a month and

before any long journey.

Check the tire pressure when the tires are

cold. Use a pressure gauge to adjust the

tire pressures to the values shown on the

tire inflation pressure label. For detailed

information, refer to “Tires and Wheels”

�P532.

WARNING

Driving at high speeds with

excessively low tire pressures

can cause the tires to deform

severely and to rapidly be-

come hot. A sharp increase in

temperature could cause tread

separation, and destruction of

the tires. The resulting loss of

vehicle control could lead to

an accident.

& On-Road and Off-Road Driv-

ing

s00ad13

This vehicle is classified as a utility vehicle.

Utility vehicles have a significantly higher

rollover rate than other types of vehicles.

Your vehicle has a higher ground clear-

ance and higher center of gravity, making it

more likely to roll over than ordinary

passenger cars. It also handles and

maneuvers differently from other passen-

ger cars. For this reason, please read

carefully the following section and follow

the instructions and precautions in order to

prevent serious injury or death due to loss

of control, rollover and other accidents.

Refer to “On-Road and Off-Road Driving”

�P446.

& Attaching Accessories

WARNING

. Do not attach any accessories,

labels or stickers (other than

properly placed inspection stick-

ers) to the windshield. Such

items may obstruct your view.

. If it is necessary to attach an

accessory (such as an electronic

toll collection (ETC) device or

security pass) to the windshield,

consult your SUBARU dealer for

details on the proper location.

. Do not connect any unauthorized

accessories or devices to the

data link connector (OBDII port).

This connector should be used

only with compatible diagnostic

devices for inspection and main-

tenance by an authorized service

technician using authorized ser-

vice tools. Connecting unauthor-

ized devices, such as a driver-

behavior tracking device, may

adversely affect vehicle systems,

including safety systems, or al-

low others to access information

stored in your vehicle. The use of

unauthorized devices may also

cause unexpected malfunctions,

such as a drained battery, or may

damage vehicle systems. The

manufacturer’s warranty will not

cover any part that malfunctions,

fails, or is damaged due to the

use of an unauthorized device

with the data link connector.

General Information

& California Perchlorate Advi-

sory

s00ak03

Certain vehicle components such as air-

bag modules, seatbelt pretensioners and

keyless entry transmitter batteries may

contain perchlorate material. Special

handling may apply for service or vehicle

end of life disposal. See www.

hazardouswaste/perchlorate.

& Noise from under the Vehicle

s00ak01

NOTE

You may hear a noise from under the

vehicle approximately 5 to 10 hours

after the ignition switch is turned to the

“LOCK”/“OFF” position. However, this

does not indicate a malfunction. This

noise is caused by the operation of the

fuel evaporation leakage checking sys-

tem and the operation is normal. The

noise will stop after approximately 15

minutes.

& Event Data Recorder

s00ak04

This vehicle is equipped with an event data

recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an

EDR is to record, in certain crash or near

crash-like situations, such as an air bag

deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data

that will assist in understanding how a

vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is

designed to record data related to vehicle

dynamics and safety systems for a short

period of time, typically 30 seconds or less.

The EDR in this vehicle is designed to

record such data as:

. How various systems in your vehicle

were operating;

. Whether or not the driver and passen-

ger safety belts were buckled/fastened;

. How far (if at all) the driver was

depressing the accelerator and/or brake

pedal; and,

. How fast the vehicle was traveling.

These data can help provide a better

understanding of the circumstances in

which crashes and injuries occur. NOTE:

EDR data are recorded by your vehicle

only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs;

no data are recorded by the EDR under

normal driving conditions and no personal

data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash

location) are recorded. However, other

parties, such as law enforcement, could

combine the EDR data with the type of

personally identifying data routinely ac-

quired during a crash investigation.

To read data recorded by an EDR, special

equipment is required, and access to the
