Subaru Forester Eyesight 2019 Owner's Manual
Foreword
Congratulations on choosing a SUBARU vehicle equipped with EyeSightTM.
EyeSight incorporates the latest driver assistance features available from
SUBARU, including such features as Adaptive Cruise Control, a Lead Vehicle Start
Alert and a Lane Departure and Lane Sway Warning, all of which are designed to
assist the driver in making decisions and increase driver comfort and
convenience. Initially, the operation and use of the various EyeSight features may
be unfamiliar to you. That is why we urge you to read this manual carefully before
using EyeSight. We also recommend that you first take the time to test EyeSight in
order to experience its features for yourself so that you can become familiar with
their operation.
Please keep in mind that it is the responsibility of drivers to operate their vehicles
safely at all times. Drivers should always remain alert and should never become
complacent while operating their vehicles because of the presence of EyeSight.
EyeSight is never a substitute for active driver involvement and it may not operate
optimally under all driving conditions.
This booklet is a supplement to the Owner’s Manual for your SUBARU vehicle and
contains a detailed description of EyeSight. It should be read in conjunction with
your Owner’s Manual so that you will gain a thorough understanding of the proper
operation of your vehicle.
The information, specifications and illustrations found in this booklet are those in
effect at the time of printing. SUBARU CORPORATION reserves the right to
change specifications and designs at any time without prior notice and without
incurring any obligation to make the same or similar changes on vehicles
previously sold.
Please keep this booklet together with your Owner’s Manual and leave it in the
vehicle at the time of resale. The next owner will need the information it contains.

About EyeSight
WARNING
EyeSight
EyeSight is a driving support system that uses a range of functions to assist the driver in
making decisions in order to provide for more safe and comfortable driving and to reduce
driver fatigue. Making use of images created by the stereo camera specially designed by
SUBARU, EyeSight detects the vehicle in front, obstacles, traffic lanes and other items.
Drivers are responsible for driving safely. Always comply with all traffic rules and regulations regardless of the fact that your vehicle is
equipped with EyeSight. Always maintain a safe following distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you, pay attention to
your surroundings and driving conditions, and take necessary actions
in order to maintain a safe following distance.
Never attempt to drive relying on EyeSight alone.
EyeSight is intended to assist the driver in making decisions in order
to reduce the risk of accidents or damage and lessen the burden on
the driver.
When an EyeSight warning is activated, pay attention to what is in
front of you and to your surroundings, and take necessary actions.
This system is not designed to support driving in poor visibility or in
extreme weather conditions, or to protect against careless driving
when the driver is not paying complete attention to the road ahead. It
also cannot prevent collisions from occurring in all driving conditions.
There are limits to the EyeSight recognition performance and control
performance. Be sure to read the instructions for each function before
using the system, and always use it properly. Improper use may lead
to failure of control performance, which could cause an accident.
Refer to the following pages for each function:
• For the Pre-Collision Braking System, refer to page 25.
• For Adaptive Cruise Control, refer to page 40.
• For Lane Keep Assist, refer to page 66.
• For Pre-Collision Throttle Management, refer to page 75.
• For Lane Departure Warning, refer to page 81.
• For Lane Sway Warning, refer to page 84.
• For Lead Vehicle Start Alert, refer to page 87.
• For Conventional Cruise Control, refer to page 88.

About EyeSight
CAUTION
S01970
Low objects surrounding the vehicle
cannot be detected.
• The characteristics of the stereo camera are similar to those of human eyes.
For this reason, conditions that make it difficult for the driver to see in the forward direction have the same effect on the stereo camera. They also make it
difficult for the system to detect vehicles, obstacles, and traffic lanes.
• Detection by the EyeSight system is limited to objects that are within the
range of the stereo camera’s field of view. Also, after an object enters the
range of the camera’s field of view, it may take some time for the system to
detect it as a controllable target and to warn the driver.
• Under the conditions listed below, it will become more difficult for the system
to detect the vehicle in front, motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians and obstacles
on the road, and lane markers. Also, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating. However, the temporary stop will be canceled once these conditions have
improved and the vehicle is driven for a short period of time.
- Bad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog). In particular,
the system is more likely to temporarily stop operating when there is an oil
film adhering to the windshield, a glass coating has been applied, or poorly
performing wipers are used.
- When affected by strong light from the front (sunlight or headlight beams of
oncoming traffic, etc.)
- When the windshield washer is in use.
- When raindrops, water drops, or dirt on the windshield are not wiped off sufficiently
- When the windshield has become fogged, scratched, or snow, dirt, dust or
frost has adhered to it, or it is otherwise affected, these will reduce the stereo camera’s field of view.
- The vehicle is tilted at an extreme angle due to loaded cargo or other factors.

- When visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor blowing in the
wind, or when the front vision is obscured due to water splashes, snow, dirt
or dust stir up generated by the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic
- When the stereo camera’s field of view is obstructed (for example by a
canoe on the roof of the vehicle)
- When passing through the entrance or exit of a tunnel
- When the rear aspect of the vehicle in front is low, small or irregular (for
example a low bed trailer, etc.)
- When the obstacle is a fence, a wall or a shutter, etc. with a uniform pattern
(a striped pattern, brick, etc.) or with no pattern in front
- When the obstacle is a wall or door made of glass or a mirror in front
- When driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that does
not have its taillights on
- When driving through a banner or flag, low branches on a tree or thick/tall
vegetation
- On steep uphill or downhill grades
- When the stereo camera is obstructed by a hand, etc. (If even one of the
lens is obstructed, the system does not operate properly.)
- When it is completely dark and no objects are detected
- When the area around the vehicle has a uniform color (such as when completely covered in snow, etc.)
- When accurate detection is not possible due to reflections in the windshield
• Under the conditions listed below, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating. If
this occurs, EyeSight will resume operating when the conditions improve.
- The temperature inside the vehicle is high, such as after the vehicle was left
in bright sunshine, or the temperature inside the vehicle is low, such as after
the vehicle was left in an extremely cold environment.
- Immediately after the engine starts
• Under the conditions listed below, it is difficult to recognize vehicles in front,
motorcycles, pedestrians, obstacles on the road, traffic lanes, etc. Also, the
EyeSight system may temporarily stop operating. If the EyeSight system
repeatedly stops operating several times, contact a SUBARU dealer and have
the system inspected.
- When the stereo camera lenses are smeared such as from fingerprints
- When the stereo camera has become misaligned due to a strong impact
• When there is a malfunction in the EyeSight system, turn off the Pre-Collision
Braking System (
refer to page 83), and stop using the Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keep
(
Assist and Conventional Cruise Control. Contact a SUBARU dealer and have
the system inspected.

Handling of the Stereo Camera
The stereo camera is located on the front map
lights unit.
• The stereo camera monitors and detects smears or blurs on the front of the
camera. However, detection is not 100% accurate.
Under certain conditions, the function may fail to detect smears or blurs on
the front of the stereo camera accurately. In addition, this function may not
detect that there is snow or ice on the windshield close to the stereo camera.
In such conditions, be sure to keep the windshield clean at all times (indicated
by ). Otherwise the system may not operate correctly. When this
function detects that the front of the stereo camera is smeared or blurred, no
EyeSight functions can be activated except for Conventional Cruise Control.
• The stereo camera lenses are precision components. Always observe the following precautions especially when handling them.
- Never touch the stereo camera lenses, and do not attempt to wipe or clean
the lenses. Doing so could damage or soil the lens, and lead to improper
system performance.
If you ever touch a lens for any reason, be sure to contact a SUBARU
dealer.

Pre-Collision Braking System
When there is the risk of a rear-end collision with an obstacle in front, the EyeSight system
helps to prevent or minimize a collision by warning the driver. If the driver still does not take
evasive action to avoid a collision, the brakes can be automatically applied just before the
collision in order to reduce impact damage, or if possible, prevent the collision. If the driver
takes evasive action to avoid a collision, Pre-Collision Braking Assist will operate in order to
help the driver to prevent or minimize the collision.
This system can be effective not only with direct rear-end collisions, but also with offset
rear-end collisions. This function can be activated when the select lever is in the , or
positions.
• Never use the Pre-Collision Braking System and Pre-Collision Braking Assist
to stop your car or avoid a collision under ordinary conditions. These functions
cannot prevent collisions under all conditions. If the driver relies only on the
Pre-Collision Braking System for Brake operation, collisions may occur.
• When a warning is activated, pay attention to the front of the vehicle and its
surroundings, and operate the brake pedal and/or take other actions if necessary.
• The EyeSight Pre-Collision Braking System is primarily designed to prevent
rear-end collisions with other vehicles when possible or to minimize damage
and injuries in the event of a collision. In addition to other vehicles, things
such as motorbikes, bicycles and pedestrians can also be treated as obstacles. However, there may be cases when detection is not possible depending
on a variety of conditions
side, oncoming vehicle, vehicles approaching in reverse, small animals or
children, or walls or doors are not likely to be detected.
• The Pre-Collision Braking System will operate at the point when it determines
that a collision cannot be avoided and is designed to apply strong braking
force just before a collision. The result of this varies depending on a variety of
conditions
the same.
• When the Pre-Collision Braking System is activated, it will continue to operate
even if the accelerator pedal is partially depressed. However, it will be canceled if the accelerator pedal is suddenly or fully depressed.
• If the driver depresses the brake pedal or turns the steering wheel, the system
may determine that this constitutes evasive action by the driver, and the automatic braking control may not activate in order to allow the driver full control.

listed below.
*1: For vehicles: approximately 30 MPH (50 km/h),
For pedestrians: approximately 21 MPH (35 km/h)
*2: Conditions in which the Pre-Collision Braking system cannot detect obstacles
- Distance to obstacle in front of you, speed difference, proximity conditions,
lateral displacement (the amount of offset)
- Vehicle conditions (amount of load, number of occupants, etc.)
- Road conditions (grade, slipperiness, shape, bumps, etc.)
- When visibility ahead is poor (rain, snow, fog or smoke, etc.)
- When the detected object is something other than a vehicle, motorcycle,
bicycle or pedestrian
• A domestic animal or other animal (a dog or deer, etc.)
• A guardrail, telephone pole, tree, fence or wall, etc.
- Even if the obstacle is a motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian, depending on the
brightness of the surroundings as well as the relative movement, and
aspect or angle of the object, there may be cases when the system cannot
detect it.
- When the system determines that operation by the driver (based on accelerator pedal operation, braking, steering wheel angle, etc.) is intended as
evasive action
- Vehicle maintenance status (brake systems, tire wear, tire pressure,
whether a temporary spare tire is being used, etc.)
- When towing a trailer or another vehicle, etc.
- When the brakes are cold due to outside temperature being low or just after
starting the engine.
- When the brakes are overheated on downhill grades (braking performance
is reduced)
- When driving in rain or after washing the vehicle (the brakes are wet and
braking performance is reduced)
- Recognition conditions of the stereo camera
In particular, the function may be unable to stop the vehicle or may not activate in the following cases.
• Bad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog)
• When visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor blowing in the
wind, or when the front vision is obscured due to water splashes, snow,
dirt or dust stir up generated by the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic
• When driving at night or in a tunnel without the headlights on

• When driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that
does not have its taillights on
• When approaching a motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian at night
• When ambient light is poor in the evening or early morning
• When a vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian is outside the area illuminated by the headlights
• When affected by strong light from the front (for example, sunlight at
dawn, sunset or headlight beams, etc.)
• When the windshield has become fogged, scratched, or snow, dirt, dust or
frost has adhered to it, or it is otherwise affected.
• When fluid has not been fully wiped off the windshield during or after
washer use
• When the target cannot be correctly recognized because the stereo camera’s view is obstructed by water droplets from rain or the window washer,
or by the wiper blades.
• When the stereo camera’s field of view is obstructed (for example by a
canoe on the roof of the vehicle)
• When the rear aspect of the
vehicle in front is low, small
or irregular (the system
may recognize another part
of the vehicle as its rear
