verse function. If the reverse
function does not operate for
some reason, this may lead to
serious injury or accidents.
.
The reverse function may not
operate if foreign objects are
caught in the rear gate just before
it closes completely. Be careful
not to catch your fingers and
other body parts.
.
The reverse function may not
operate depending on the object
shape and the manner in which it
was caught. Be careful not to
catch your fingers and other
body parts.
CAUTION

If the reverse function is operated
3 times consecutively, automatic
opening and closing of the power
rear gate function will be can-
celed and the rear gate will stop
opening or closing suddenly.
However, the rear gate may open
or close depending on the rear

eration is ceased. Be careful that
the rear gate does not hit any-
one’s head or face, etc. and that
fingers and baggage, etc. are not

Rear gate drop prevention function
The rear gate is lowered by the weight of
snow and such, an electronic chirp will
sound and the rear gate drop prevention
function will apply braking to the rear gate
so that it prevents a rapid closure of the
rear gate.
NOTE
If there is snow on the rear gate, only
use the power rear gate function after
removing the snow.
!
Selecting audible signal operation
Using an electronic chirp, the power rear
gate will give you an audible signal before
starting its operation. If desired, the audi-
ble signal can be turned off by a SUBARU
dealer. Consult your SUBARU dealer for
details.
For models with “keyless access with
push-button start system”, you can turn
the audible signal off by operating the
combination meter display (color LCD).
For details, refer to “Keyless Entry Sys-
tem”
The ON/OFF setting of the audible signal
also works as the audible signal settings
for the “remote keyless entry system” and
the “keyless access with push-button start
system”. However, for the warning chime
such as that caused by “Reverse function”
P152 or “Rear gate drop prevention
P153, it cannot be set as non-
operational.
!
Initialization of power rear gate
If the power rear gate detects some
abnormality while operating, an electronic
chirp will sound and the power rear gate
operation will be automatically stopped in
either opening or closing position. In this
case, the system needs to be initialized in
the following order to restart the function
properly.
!
If the power rear gate is closed
1. Keep pressing the rear gate opener
button until it is unlocked (for approxi-
mately 5 seconds) and lift up the rear gate.

2-10. Moonroof (if equipped)
WARNING
Never let anyone’s hands, arms,
head or any objects protrude from
the moonroof. A person could be
seriously injured if any of the follow-
ing conditions occur.
.
The vehicle stops suddenly.
.
The vehicle turns sharply.
.
The vehicle is involved in an
accident.
.
Body parts protruding from the
vehicle are struck by outside
objects.
To avoid serious personal injury
caused by entrapment, always con-
form to the following instructions
without exception.
.
Before closing the moonroof,
make sure that no one’s hands,
arms, head or other objects will
be accidentally caught in the
moonroof.
.
Always carry the key when you
leave the vehicle for safety rea-
sons and never allow an unat-
tended child to remain in the
vehicle. Failure to follow this
procedure could result in injury
to a child operating the moon-
roof.
.
Never try to check the anti-en-
trapment function by deliberately
placing part of your body in the
moonroof.
CAUTION
.
Do not sit on the edge of the open
moonroof.
.
Do not operate the moonroof if
falling snow or extremely cold
conditions have caused it to
freeze shut.
.
Do not touch the moving parts of
the moonroof while the moonroof
is operating.
.
If the moonroof does not close,
we recommend that you have the
system checked by a SUBARU
dealer.

“OPEN” side or “CLOSE” side.
After washing the vehicle or after it rains,
wipe away water on the roof prior to
opening the moonroof to prevent drops of
water from falling into the passenger
compartment.
NOTE
.
Driving with the moonroof fully open
can cause an annoying sound to be
generated at high speeds. If this oc-
curs, use the moonroof at the initial
stop position of 6 in (15 cm) away from
the fully opened position.
.
The moonroof cannot be operated
while the remote engine starter system
is operating.
&
Anti-entrapment function
When the moonroof senses a substantial
enough object trapped between its glass
and the vehicle’s roof during closure, it
automatically moves back to the fully open
position and stops there. The anti-entrap-
ment function may also be activated by a
strong shock on the moonroof even when
there is nothing trapped.
CAUTION
Never attempt to test this function
using fingers, hands or other parts
of your body.
NOTE
For the sake of safety, it is recom-
mended that you avoid driving with the
moonroof fully opened.
&
Sunshade
The sunshade can be slid forward or
backward by hand while the moonroof is
closed.
If the moonroof is opened, the sunshade
also moves back.

3-1. Ignition switch (models
without “keyless access with
push-button start system”)
WARNING
.
Never turn the ignition switch to
the “LOCK” position while the
vehicle is being driven or towed
because that will lock the steer-
ing wheel, preventing 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 key
holder 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.
&

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.

contains an immobilizer transpon-
der.
– The key is near or touching
another transmitter.

Type B combination meter
The fuel gauge is displayed when the
ignition is in the “ON” position, and it shows
the approximate amount of fuel remaining
in the tank.
The gauge indication may change slightly
during braking, turning or acceleration due

gauge. This indicates that the fuel filler
lid is located on the right side of the
vehicle.

ECO gauge (if equipped)
The ECO gauge shows the difference
between the current rate of fuel consump-
tion and the average rate of fuel consump-
tion since the trip meter was last reset.
If the ECO gauge moves towards the +
side, this indicates better fuel efficiency.
NOTE
.
The ECO gauge shows only an
approximate indication of fuel effi-
ciency.
.
After resetting the trip meter, the
average rate of fuel consumption is not
shown until you have driven for 1 mile
(or 1 km). Before that time, the ECO
gauge does not operate.
