Child Safety Locks; Windows; Power Windows - Subaru 2008 TRIBECA Owner's Manual

signal lights to flash for a short time when
the sensed impact is weak, but it warns of
a strong impact or multiple impacts by
sounding the horn and flashing the turn
signal lights, both lasting approximately 30
seconds.
If you desire, your SUBARU dealer can
connect them and set them for activation
or deactivation.
NOTE
The shock sensors are not always
able to sense impacts caused by break-
ing in, and cannot sense an impact that
does not cause vibration (such as
breaking the glass using a rescue
hammer).
The shock sensors may sense vi-
bration like those shown in the follow-
ing and trigger the alarm system.
Select the settings of the alarm system
and shock sensors appropriately de-
pending on where you usually park
your vehicle.
Example:
Vibration from construction site
Vibration in multistory car park
Vibration from trains
You can have the sensitivity of the
shock sensors adjusted to your pre-
ference by your SUBARU dealer.

Child safety locks

WARNING
Always use the child safety lock
whenever a child rides in the rear.
Serious injury could result if a child
accidentally opened the door and
fell out.
Each rear door has a child safety lock that
prevents the doors from being opened
even if the inside door handle is pulled.
When the child safety lock lever is in the
lock position, the door cannot be opened
from inside regardless of the position of
the inner door handle lock lever. The door
can only be opened from the outside.
Keys and doors

Windows

& Power windows
WARNING
To avoid serious personal injury
caused by entrapment, you must
do the following.
When operating the power win-
dows, be extremely careful to
prevent anyone's fingers, arms,
neck or head from being caught
in the window.
Always lock the passengers' win-
dows using the lock switch when
children are riding in the vehicle.
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
result in injury to a child operat-
ing the power window.
The power windows operate only when
the ignition switch is in the "ON" position.
