WARNING

Fastening the seatbelt with the web-
bing twisted can increase the risk or
severity of injury in an accident.
When fastening the belt after it is
pulled out from the retractor, espe-
cially when inserting the anchor
tongue plate into the mating buckle
(on right-hand side), always check
that the webbing is not twisted.

WARNING

Be sure to fasten both tongue plates
to the respective buckles. If the
seatbelt is used only as a shoulder
belt (with the anchor tongue plate

not fastened to the anchor buckle on
the right-hand side), it cannot prop-
erly restrain the wearer in position in
an accident, possibly resulting in
serious injury or death.

Rear center seatbelt is stowed in the
recess of the ceiling.

1. Retrieve the anchor tongue plate from
the slot in the recess by pulling the anchor
tongue plate.

2. Pass the seatbelt through the belt
guide.

3. Make sure that the “

” mark on the

anchor tongue plate and the “

” mark on

the buckle face outwards.

4. After confirming that the webbing is not
twisted, insert the anchor tongue plate
attached at the webbing end into the
buckle on the right-hand side until a click
sounds.

If the belt stops before reaching the

buckle, return the belt slightly and pull it
out more slowly.

If the belt still cannot be unlocked,

give it a strong pull and let it retract
slightly, then pull it out slowly again.

5. Insert the center seatbelt tongue plate
into the center seatbelt buckle until it
clicks.

6. To tighten the lap part, pull up on the
shoulder belt. And place the lap belt as low
as possible on the hips, not on the waist.

2. Insert a tongue plate or other hard
pointed object into the slot in the connector
(buckle) on the right-hand side and push it
in. The anchor tongue plate will then
disconnect from the buckle.

3. Allow the retractor to roll up the belt.

You should hold the webbing end and
guide it back into the retractor while it is
rolling up. Neatly store the tongue plate in
the recess and then insert the anchor
tongue plate into the slot.

CAUTION

Observe the following precautions.
Otherwise, the tongue plate can hit
against the trim, causing damage to
the trim.

Do not allow the retractor to roll

up the seatbelt too quickly.

Have the seatbelt fully rolled up

so that the tongue plates are
neatly stored.

Seatbelt Maintenance

To clean the seatbelts, use a mild soap and
lukewarm water. Never bleach or dye the
belts because this could seriously affect
their strength.

Inspect the seatbelts and attachments
including the webbing and all hardware
periodically for cracks, cuts, gashes, tears,
damage, loose bolts or worn areas. Re-
place the seatbelts even if only minor
damage is found.

CAUTION

Keep the belts free of polishes,

oils, chemicals and particularly
battery acid.

Never attempt to make modifica-

tions or changes that will prevent
the seatbelt from operating prop-
erly.

Seatbelts

1-6. Seatbelt Pretensioners

The following seatbelts have a seatbelt
pretensioner.

Driver’s seatbelt

Front passenger’s seatbelt

Rear passenger’s seatbelt (window-

side)

The seatbelt pretensioners are designed
to be activated in the event of an accident
involving a moderate to severe frontal and
side collision and rollover accident.

WARNING

To obtain maximum protection,

the occupants should sit in an
upright position with their seat-
belts properly fastened. Refer to
“Seatbelts”

P46.

Do not modify, remove or strike

the seatbelt retractor assemblies
equipped with seatbelt preten-
sioners or surrounding area. This
could result in accidental activa-
tion of the seatbelt pretensioners
or could make the system inop-
erative, possibly resulting in ser-
ious injury. Seatbelt preten-
sioners have no user-serviceable
parts. For required servicing of

seatbelt retractors equipped with
seatbelt pretensioners, consult
your SUBARU dealer.

When discarding seatbelt retrac-

tor assemblies equipped with
seatbelt pretensioners or scrap-
ping the entire vehicle due to
collision damage or for other
reasons, consult your SUBARU
dealer.

NOTE

Seatbelt pretensioners are not de-

signed to activate in minor impacts or
in rear impacts.

Pretensioners are designed to func-

tion on a one-time-only basis. In the
event that a pretensioner is activated,
the seatbelt retractor assemblies
equipped with seatbelt pretensioners
should be replaced only by an author-
ized SUBARU dealer. When replacing
seatbelt retractor assemblies, use only
genuine SUBARU parts.

If a seatbelt that has a seatbelt

pretensioner does not retract or cannot
be pulled out due to a malfunction or
activation of the pretensioner, contact
your SUBARU dealer as soon as pos-
sible.

If the seatbelt retractor assembly or

surrounding area has been damaged,
contact your SUBARU dealer as soon
as possible.

When you sell your vehicle, we urge

you to inform the buyer that the vehicle
is equipped with seatbelt preten-
sioners. Also, notify the buyer of the
contents in this section.

The pretensioner sensor also serves as
follows.

Front impact sensor

Side impact sensor

Front door impact sensor

Rollover sensor

If the sensor detects a certain predeter-
mined amount of force during frontal or
side collisions or rollover accidents, any
seatbelt that has a seatbelt pretensioner is
quickly drawn back in by the retractor to
take up the slack so that the belt more
effectively restrains the seat occupant.

The rear passenger’s seatbelt (window-
side) pretensioner includes a tension
reducing device which limits the peak
forces exerted by the seatbelt on the
occupant in the event of a collision.

The front passenger’s seatbelt preten-
sioner includes a tension reducing device
which limits the peak forces exerted by the
seatbelt on the occupant in the event of a
collision. The adaptive force limiter will
select a reducing load to suit the body size
of the occupant as detected by the
occupant detection system sensors.

When a seatbelt pretensioner is activated,
an operating noise will be heard and a
small amount of smoke will be released.
These occurrences are normal and not

harmful. This smoke does not indicate a
fire in the vehicle.

Once the seatbelt pretensioner has been
activated, the seatbelt retractor remains
locked. Consequently, the seatbelt can not
be pulled out and retracted and therefore
must be replaced.

Seatbelt with Shoulder Belt
and Lap Belt Pretensioners

NOTE

This section is applicable to the follow-
ing components.

Driver’s seatbelt

Seatbelt retractor assembly (shoulder
belt pretensioner and adaptive force
limiter)

Lap belt pretensioner

The shoulder belt pretensioner is supple-
mented by a lap belt pretensioner, which is
located at the base of the center pillar. Like
the shoulder belt pretensioner, the lap belt
pretensioner instantaneously pulls in the
belt to eliminate slack if a certain level of
frontal collision force is detected. As a
result, the seatbelt restrains the front seat
occupant more effectively.

The driver’s seatbelt pretensioner includes
a tension reducing device which limits the
peak forces exerted by the seatbelt on the
occupant in the event of a collision.
The adaptive force limiter will select a
reducing load to suit the body size of
occupant as detected by the occupant
detection sensor.

When a seatbelt pretensioner is activated,
an operating noise will be heard and a
small amount of smoke will be released.
These occurrences are normal and not
harmful. This smoke does not indicate a
fire in the vehicle.

Once the seatbelt pretensioner has been
activated, the seatbelt pretensioner re-
mains locked. Consequently, the seatbelt
cannot be pulled out and retracted and
therefore must be replaced.

Seatbelt Pretensioners

(59,1)

System Monitors

A diagnostic system continually monitors
the readiness of the seatbelt pretensioner
with the ignition switch in the “ON” position.
The seatbelt pretensioners share the
control module with the SRS airbag
system. Therefore, if any malfunction
occurs in a seatbelt pretensioner, the
SRS airbag system warning light will
illuminate. For details, refer to “SRS Airbag
System Monitors”

P108.

System Servicing

WARNING

When discarding a seatbelt re-

tractor assembly or scrapping
the entire vehicle damaged by a
collision, consult your SUBARU
dealer.

Tampering with or disconnecting

the system’s wiring could result
in accidental activation of the
seatbelt pretensioner and/or
SRS airbag or could make the
system inoperative, which may
result in serious injury. Do not
use electrical test equipment on
any circuit related to the seatbelt
pretensioner and SRS airbag sys-
tems. For required servicing of

the seatbelt pretensioner, con-
sult your nearest SUBARU deal-
er.

CAUTION

For the locations of the sensors and
control modules, refer to “Compo-
nents”

P85.

If you need service or repair in those
areas or near the front seatbelt
retractors, have the work performed
by your authorized SUBARU dealer.

NOTE

If the front or side part of the vehicle is
damaged in an accident to the extent
that the seatbelt pretensioner does not
operate, contact your SUBARU dealer
as soon as possible.

Precautions against Vehicle
Modification

Always consult your SUBARU dealer if you
want to install any accessory parts to your
vehicle.

CAUTION

Do not perform any of the following
modifications. Such modifications
can interfere with proper operation
of the seatbelt pretensioners.

Attachment of any equipment

(bush bar, winches, snow plow,
skid plate, etc.) other than genu-
ine SUBARU accessory parts to
the front end.

Modification of the suspension

system or front end structure.

Installation of a tire of different

size and construction from the

1-7. Rear Seat Reminder

This function prompts the driver to confirm
the presence of passengers and cargo in
the rear.
This function will be activated when the
rear doors are opened and closed.
It alerts the driver by warning messages on
the combination meter display (color LCD)
and beeps when the ignition switch is
turned from the “ON” position to the “OFF”
position.

NOTE

This function does not directly de-

tect passengers and cargo in the rear
seat.

This function detects the opening

and closing of the rear doors. In this

situation, there is the possibility that
the following phenomenon may occur.

– It may alert the driver even if there
are no passengers or cargo in the
rear seat.
– It may not alert the driver even if
there are passengers and cargo in
the rear seat.

This function can be set to on or off

by the “Car settings”. For details, refer
to “Car settings”

P223 (11.6-inch dis-

play models) or “Vehicle setting icons”

P242 (dual 7.0-inch display models).

The ON/OFF setting will not be

changed even if the ignition switch is
turned to the “OFF” position.

The ON/OFF setting will be returned

to the default setting if the battery is
removed.

1-8. Child Restraint Systems

Safety Precautions

Infants and small children should always
be placed in an infant or child restraint
system in the rear seat while riding in the
vehicle.

You should use an infant or child restraint
system that meets Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards or Canada Motor Vehi-
cle Safety Standards, is compatible with
your vehicle and is appropriate for the
child’s age and size.

All child restraint systems are designed to
be secured in vehicle seats by lap belts or
the lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder belt
(except those described in “Installation of
Child Restraint Systems by Use of Lower

Rear Seat Reminder

(61,1)

and Tether Anchorages (LATCH)”

P70).

Children could be endangered in an
accident if their child restraint systems
are not properly secured in the vehicle.
When installing the child restraint system,
carefully follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions.

According to accident statistics, children
are safer when properly restrained in the
rear seating positions than in the front
seating positions.

All U.S. states and Canadian provinces
require that infants and small children be
restrained in an approved child restraint
system at all times while the vehicle is
moving.

WARNING

Before installing a child restraint

system, be sure to confirm that
the seatback is securely locked
into place. Otherwise, in an acci-
dent, serious injury or death
could result.

Do not leave children in the car

unattended. High interior tem-
peratures may cause heat stroke
and dehydration that result in
serious injury or death.

WARNING

Never let a passenger hold a child on
his or her lap or in his or her 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. Additionally, holding a child
in your lap or arms in the front seat
exposes that child to another ser-
ious danger. Since the SRS airbag
deploys with considerable speed
and force, the child could be injured
or even killed.

WARNING

Children should be properly re-
strained at all times. Never allow a
child to stand up, or to kneel on any
seat. Unrestrained children will be
thrown forward during sudden stop
or in an accident and can be injured
seriously.

Additionally, children standing up or
kneeling on or in front of the front
seat are exposed another serious
danger. Since the SRS airbag de-
ploys with considerable speed and
force, the child could be injured or
even killed.

Safety Tips for Installing
Child Restraint Systems

WARNING

Do not use a seatbelt extender. If

a seatbelt extender is used when
installing a child restraint sys-
tem, the seatbelt will not securely
hold the child restraint system.
Use of a seatbelt extender could
cause death or serious injury to
children or other passengers in
sudden braking, swerving, or
accidents.

Attach the child restraint system

to the anchors properly. When
using the LATCH anchors, be
sure that there are no foreign
objects around the anchors.
Make sure the child restraint
system is securely attached.
Otherwise it may cause death or
serious injury to children or other
passengers in sudden braking,
swerving, or accidents.

Child restraint systems and seat-

belts can become hot in a vehicle
that has been closed up in sunny
weather; they could burn a small
child. Check the child restraint
system before you place a child

in it.

Do not leave an unsecured child

restraint system in your vehicle.
Unsecured child restraint sys-
tems can be thrown around in-
side of the vehicle in a sudden
stop, turn or accident; they can
strike and injure vehicle occu-
pants as well as result in serious
injuries or death to the child.

CAUTION

When you install a child restraint
system, follow the manufacturer’s
instructions supplied with it. After
installing the child restraint system,
check to ensure that it is held
securely in position. If it is not held
tight and secure, the danger of your
child suffering personal injury in the
event of an accident may be in-
creased.

Child Restraint Systems

(63,1)

Where to Place a Child Re-
straint System

The following descriptions are SUBARU’s
recommendations on where to place a
child restraint system in your vehicle.

WARNING

Several types of child restraint

systems may conceal the buckle
of the neighboring seat. If the
occupant of the neighboring seat
cannot correctly fasten the seat-
belt, that person must move to a
different seat. If the seatbelt can-
not be correctly fastened, there is
the risk of serious injury or death
in the event of sudden braking or
a collision.

If the child restraint system can-

not be correctly installed be-
cause it contacts the driver’s
seat, move the child restraint
system to a different seat. If it
cannot be installed in a different
seat (other than the driver’s seat),
adjust the front seat so that
contact does not occur.

A: Front passenger’s seat

You should not install a child restraint
system (including a booster seat) due to
the hazard to children posed by the
passenger’s airbag.

B: Rear seat, window-side seating
positions

Recommended positions for all types of
child restraint systems.
In these positions, the following equipment
is provided for installing a child restraint
system.

Automatic Locking Retractor/Emer-

gency Locking Retractor (ALR/ELR) seat-
belts

Lower anchorages (bars)

Upper anchorages (tether anchorages)

C: Rear seat, center seating position
(U.S.-spec. models)

In this position, the following equipment is
provided for installing a child restraint
system.

ALR/ELR seatbelts

Lower anchorages (bars)

Top tether anchorages

Some types of child restraint systems
might not be able to be secured firmly
due to projection of the seat cushion.
In this seating position, you should use
only a child restraint system that has a
bottom base that fits snugly against the
contours of the seat cushion and can be
securely retained using the seatbelt.
The rear center seat includes lower an-
chorages, and the lower anchorages on
the center side of the rear right seat can be
used to install a child restraint system.
When a child restraint system is installed in
the rear center seat using the lower

– CONTINUED –

anchorages, do not sit in the rear right
seat.
If a child restraint system is not correctly
fixed in place (for example, if a child
restraint system can be moved more than
1 inch (2.5 cm) from side to side), the child
restraint system should be moved to a
window seat position of the rear seat.

C: Rear seat, center seating position
(other models)

In this position, the following equipment is
provided for installing a child restraint
system.

ALR/ELR seatbelts

Top tether anchorages

Some types of child restraint systems
might not be able to be secured firmly
due to projection of the seat cushion.
In this seating position, you should use
only a child restraint system that has a
bottom base that fits snugly against the
contours of the seat cushion and can be
securely retained using the seatbelt.
When you install a child restraint system in
the rear seat’s center seating position,
raise the center head restraint.
Lower anchorages (bars) for window-side
seating positions may be used for a seat in
the center seating position if a child
restraint system manufacturer’s instruc-

tions permit and specify using anchors as
far apart as those in this vehicle.
If a child restraint system is not correctly
fixed in place (for example, if a child
restraint system can be moved more than
1 inch (2.5 cm) from side to side), you
should install the child restraint system in a
rear seat, window-side seating position.

WARNING

Even with advanced airbags, chil-

dren can be seriously injured by
the airbag. Seat children in the
rear seat properly restrained at
all times. 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.

For that reason, be sure to secure
ALL types of child restraint sys-
tems in the REAR seats at all
times. You should choose a re-
straint system which is appropri-
ate for the child’s age, height and
weight. According to accident
statistics, children are safer

when properly restrained in the
rear seating positions than in the
front seating positions.

Do not use lower anchorages

(bars) for a seat in the center
seating position unless a child
restraint system manufacturer’s
instructions permit and specify
using anchors spaced as far
apart as those in this vehicle.

Do not connect two or more lower

hooks onto the same anchorage
(bar).

STALL A CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEM IN THE FRONT PAS-
SENGER’S SEAT. DOING SO
RISKS SERIOUS INJURY OR
DEATH TO THE CHILD BY PLA-
CING THE CHILD’S HEAD TOO
CLOSE TO THE SRS AIRBAG.

Do not allow children to lean their

heads or any other parts of their
bodies against the door or the
area of the seat, front and rear
pillars or roof side rails. The SRS
side airbags and SRS curtain
airbags deploy even if children
are seated in the child restraint
system. It will be dangerous if the
SRS side airbags and SRS cur-
tain airbags inflate. The impact
could cause death or serious
injury to the child.

To secure the child restraint sys-

tem, be sure to comply with all
installation instructions provided
by the child restraint system
manufacturer. Not doing so could
result in death or serious injury to
children in a sudden stop or
accident.

Choosing a Child Restraint
System

Choose a child restraint system that is
appropriate for the child’s age and size
(weight and height) in order to provide the
child with proper protection. The child
restraint system should meet all applicable
requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards for the United States or
of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
for Canada. It can be identified by looking
for the label on the child restraint system or
the manufacture’s statement of compli-
ance in the document attached to the
system. Also it is important for you to make
sure that the child restraint system is
compatible with the vehicle in which it will
be used.

NOTE

Some sizes of child restraint systems
may not fit the vehicle seat. Before
purchasing a child restraint system,
check whether it fits on the vehicle seat.

Installing Child Restraint
Systems with ALR/ELR Seat-
belt

CAUTION

When you install a child restraint

system, follow the manufac-
turer’s instructions supplied with
it. After installing the child re-
straint system, check to ensure
that it is held securely in position.
If it is not held tight and secure,
the danger of your child suffering
personal injury in the event of an
accident may be increased.

When installing a child restraint
