Safety precautions when driving
& Seatbelt and SRS airbag
WARNING
. All persons in the vehicle should
fasten their seatbelts BEFORE the vehicle starts to move. Other­wise, the possibility of serious injury becomes greater in the event of a sudden stop or acci­dent.
. To obtain maximum protection in
the event of an accident, the driver and all passengers in the vehicle should always wear seat­belts when the vehicle is moving. The SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) airbag does not do away with the need to fasten seatbelts. In combination with the seat­belts, it offers the best combined protection in case of a serious accident.
Not wearing a seatbelt increases the chance of severe injury or death in a crash even when the vehicle has the SRS airbag.
CONTINUED

. The SRS airbags deploy with
considerable speed and force. Occupants who are out of proper position when the SRS airbag deploys could suffer very serious injuries. Because the SRS airbag needs enough space for deploy­ment, the driver should always sit upright and well back in the seat as far from the steering wheel as practical while still maintaining full vehicle control and the front passenger should move the seat as far back as possible and sit upright and well back in the seat.
For instructions and precautions, carefully read the following sections.
. For the seatbelt system, refer to Seat- beltsF1-11.
. For the SRS airbag system, refer to *SRS airbag (Supplemental Restraint System airbag)F1-33.
& Child safety
WARNING
. Never hold a child on your lap or
in your arms while the vehicle is moving. The passenger cannot protect the child from injury in a collision, because the child will be caught between the passen­ger and objects inside the vehi­cle.
. While riding in the vehicle, in-
fants and small children should always be placed in the REAR seat in an infant or child restraint system which is appropriate for the childs age, height and weight. If a child is too big for a child restraint system, the child should sit in the REAR seat and be restrained using the seatbelts. According to accident statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seating positions than in the front seat­ing positions. Never allow a child to stand up or kneel on the seat.
. Put children in the REAR seat
properly restrained at all times in a child restraint device or in a seatbelt. The SRS airbag deploys
with considerable speed and force and can injure or even kill children, especially if they are not restrained or improperly re­strained. Because children are lighter and weaker than adults, their risk of being injured from deployment is greater.
. NEVER INSTALL A REARWARD
FACING CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT SEAT. DOING SO RISKS SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO THE CHILD BY PLACING THE CHILDS HEAD TOO CLOSE TO THE SRS AIRBAG.
. Always turn the child safety locks
to the LOCKposition when children sit in the rear seat. Serious injury could result if a child accidentally opens the door and falls out. Refer to Child safety locksF2-32.
. Always lock the passengers win-
dows using the lock switch when children are riding in the vehicle. Failure to follow this procedure could result in injury to a child operating the power window. Re­fer to WindowsF2-32.
. Never leave unattended children,
adults or animals in the vehicle.

They could accidentally injure themselves or others through inadvertent operation of the ve­hicle. Also, on hot or sunny days, the temperature in a closed ve­hicle could quickly become high enough to cause severe or pos­sibly fatal injuries.
. Help prevent children, adults or
animals from locking themselves in the trunk. On hot or sunny days, the temperature in t he trunk could quickly become high enough to cause death or serious heat-related injuries including brain damage to anyone locked inside, particularly for small chil­dren.
. When leaving the vehicle, close
all windows and lock all doors. Also make certain that the trunk is closed.
For instructions and precautions, carefully read the following sections.
. For the seatbelt system, refer to Seat- beltsF1-11.
. For the child restraint system, refer to Child restraint systemsF1-21.
. For the SRS airbag system, refer to *SRS airbag (Supplemental Restraint
System airbag)F1-33.
& Engine exhaust gas (carbon
monoxide)
WARNING
. Never inhale engine exhaust gas.
Engine exhaust gas contains carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas which is dan­gerous, or even lethal, if inhaled.
. Always properly maintain the en-
gine exhaust system to prevent engine exhaust gas from enter­ing the vehicle.
. Never run the engine in a closed
space, such as a garage, except for the brief time needed to drive the vehicle in or out of it.
. Avoid remaining in a parked
vehicle for a lengthy time while the engine is running. If that is unavoidable, then use the venti­lation fan to force fresh air into the vehicle.
. Always keep the front ventilator
inlet grille free from snow, leaves or other obstructions to ensure that the ventilation system al­ways works properly.
. If at any time you suspect that
exhaust fumes are entering the vehicle, have the problem checked and corrected as soon as possible. If you must drive under these conditions, drive only with all windows fully open.
. Keep the trunk lid closed while
driving to prevent exhaust gas from entering the vehicle.
& Drinking and driving
WARNING
Drinking and then driving is very dangerous. Alcohol in the blood­stream delays your reaction time and impairs your perception, judg­ment and attentiveness. If you drive after drinking – even if you drink just a little – it will increase the risk of being involved in a serious or fatal accident, injuring or killing yourself, your passengers and others. In addition, if you are injured in the accident, alcohol may increase the severity of that injury.
Please dont drink and drive.
Drunken driving is one of the most

frequent causes of accidents. Since alco­hol affects all people differently, you may have consumed too much alcohol to drive safely even if the level of alcohol in your blood is below the legal limit. The safest thing you can do is never drink and drive. However if you have no choice but to drive, stop drinking and sober up comple­tely before getting behind the wheel.
& Drugs and driving
WARNING
There are some drugs (over the counter and prescription) that can delay your reaction time and impair your perception, judgment and at­tentiveness. If you drive after taking them, it may increase your, your passengersand other personsrisk of being involved in a serious or fatal accident.
If you are taking any drugs, check with your doctor or pharmacist or read the literature that accompanies the medication to determine if the drug you are taking can impair your driving ability. Do not drive after taking any medications that can make you drowsy or otherwise affect your ability to safely operate a motor vehicle. If you have a medical condition that requires
you to take drugs, please consult with your doctor.
Never drive if you are under the influence of any illicit mind-altering drugs. For your own health and well-being, we urge you not to take illegal drugs in the first place and to seek treatment if you are addicted to those drugs.
& Driving when tired or sleepy
WARNING
When you are tired or sleepy, your reaction time will be delayed and your perception, judgment and at­tentiveness will be impaired. If you drive when tired or sleepy, your, your passengersand other per­sonschances of being involved in a serious accident may increase.
Please do not continue to drive but instead find a safe place to rest if you are tired or sleepy. On long trips, you should make periodic rest stops to refresh yourself before continuing on your journey. When possible, you should share the driving with others.
& Modification of your vehicle
CAUTION
Your vehicle should not be modified other than with genuine SUBARU parts and accessories. Other types of modifications could affect its performance, safety or durability, and may even violate governmental regulations. In addition, damage or performance problems resulting from modification may not be cov­ered under warranties.
NOTE
This vehicle is equipped with a function that will record certain vehicle data in the event the vehicle is operated or maintained in a manner that exceeds or varies from routine normal use.
That data may be used as a means of determining whether or not a vehicle condition is eligible for repair under warranty.
7
& Car phone/cell phone and
driving
CAUTION
Do not use a car phone/cell phone while driving; it may distract your attention from driving and can lead to an accident. If you use a car phone/cell phone, pull off the road and park in a safe place be fore using your phone. In some States/ Provinces, only hands-free phones may legally be used while driving.
& Driving vehicles equipped
with navigation system
WARNING
Do not allow the monitor to distract your attention from driving. Also, do not operate the controls of the navigation system while driving. The loss of attention to driving could lead to an accident. If you wish to operate the controls of the navigation system, first take the vehicle off the road and stop it in a safe place.
& Driving with pets
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. Re­strain 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 carriers handle. Never restrain pets or pet carriers in the front passengers seat. For further information, consult your veterinarian, local animal protection society or pet shop.
& Tire pressures
Check and, if necessary, adjust the pressure of each tire (including the spare) 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 placard. For detailed information, refer to Tires and wheelsF11-31.
WARNING
Driving at high speeds with exces­sively low tire pressures can cause the tires to deform severely and to rapidly become 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.

General information
& California proposition 65
warning
WARNING
Engine exhaust, some of its consti­tuents, and certain vehicle compo­nents contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. In addi­tion, certain fluids in vehicles and certain components of product wear contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
& California Perchlorate Advi-
sory
Certain vehicle components such as air­bag 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.dtsc.ca.gov/ hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
& Noise from under the vehicle NOTE
You may hear a noise from under the vehicle approximately 5 to 10 hours after the engine is turned off. However, this does not indicate a malfunction. This noise is caused by the operation of the fuel evaporation leakage check­ing system and the operation is normal. The noise will stop after approximately 15 minutes.
& Event data recorder
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 vehicles 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 passen­ger 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 ac­quired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the informa­tion if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.
