proper operation of the SRS cur-
tain airbags.
WARNING
S_602905-W
Do not hang coat hangers or other
hard or pointed objects on the coat
hooks. If such items were hanging on
the coat hooks during deployment of
the SRS curtain airbags, they could
cause serious injuries by coming off
the coat hooks and being thrown
through the cabin or by preventing
deployment of the curtain airbags.
Before hanging clothing on the coat
hooks, make sure there are no sharp
objects in the pockets. Hang clothing
directly on the coat hooks without
using hangers.
WARNING
S_103126-MW
. Do not put any kind of clothes or
other objects over the driver’s seat
and front passenger’s seatback
and do not attach labels or stickers
to the driver’s seat and front
passenger’s seat surface on or
near the SRS side airbag or the
SRS seat cushion airbag. They
could prevent proper deployment
of the SRS side airbag or the SRS
seat cushion airbag, reducing pro-
tection available to the occupant of
the driver’s seat or the front
passenger’s seat.
. Do not install a seat cover unless it
is a genuine SUBARU seat cover
exclusively designed for use with
the SRS airbag. Even when using a
genuine SUBARU seat cover, the
SRS side airbag or the SRS seat
cushion airbag may not function
normally if the seat cover is not
installed correctly.

WARNING
S_103040-MW
SUBARU strongly recommends that
ALL infants and children (including
those in child restraint systems) sit in
the REAR seat properly restrained in a
child restraint system or in a seatbelt,
whichever is appropriate for the child’s
age, height and weight. The SRS
airbag deploys with considerable
speed and force and can injure or
even kill children, especially if they are

not restrained or improperly re-
strained. Because children are lighter
and weaker than adults, their risk of
being injured from deployment is
greater. According to accident statis-
tics, children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seating positions
than in the front seating positions. For
instructions and precautions concern-
ing child restraint systems, refer to
“Child Restraint Systems” �P67.
WARNING
S_103091-MW
NEVER INSTALL A REARWARD FA-
CING CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
ON THE FRONT PASSENGER’S
SEAT, AND NEVER INSTALL A
FORWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT SYSTEM ON THE FRONT
PASSENGER’S SEAT IF THE
FRONT PASSENGER’S FRONTAL
AIRBAG ON INDICATOR LIGHT IL-
LUMINATES. DOING SO RISKS
SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO
THE CHILD BY PLACING THE
CHILD’S HEAD TOO CLOSE TO THE
SRS AIRBAG.
WARNING
S_103089-MW
Never allow a child to stand up or
kneel on the front passenger’s seat.
The SRS airbag deploys with consid-
erable force and can injure or even kill
the child.
WARNING
S_103088-MW
Never hold a child on your lap or in
your arms. The SRS airbag deploys
with considerable force and can injure
or even kill the child.

. Never allow a child to do the
following.
– Kneel on any passenger’s seat
facing the side window.
– Wrap his/her arms around the
front seat seatback.
– Put his/her head, arms or other
parts of the body out of the
window.
In the event of an accident, the
force of SRS side airbag and/or
SRS curtain airbag deployment
could injure the child seriously
because his/her head, arms or
other parts of the body are too
close to the SRS side airbag and/or
SRS curtain airbag.
. Since your vehicle is also equipped
with a front passenger’s SRS
frontal airbag, children and infants
should be placed on the rear seat
anyway and should be properly
restrained at all times.
