Light Control Switch; Headlights - Subaru Outback 2011 Owner's Manual

Light control switch

The light control switch operates when the
key is inserted into the ignition switch. For
models with the "Keyless access with
push-button start system", the light control
switch operates when the push-button
ignition switch is in the "Acc" or "ON"
position.
Regardless of the position of the light
control switch, the illuminated lights are
turned off when the following operation is
performed.
. The key is removed from the ignition
switch (except models with the "Keyless
access with push-button start system").
. The push-button ignition switch is
turned off (models with the "Keyless
access with push-button start system").
NOTE
Even if the key is removed from the
ignition switch or even if the push-
button ignition switch is turned off
(models with the "Keyless access with
push-button start system"), the lights
can be illuminated by operating the
light control switch from "OFF" to the
" " or " " position. In this case, if
the driver's door is opened, the chirp
sound will inform the driver that the
lights are illuminated.
CAUTION
. Use of any lights for a long period
of time while the engine is not
running can cause the battery to
discharge.
. Before leaving the vehicle, make
sure that the light control switch
is turned to the "OFF" position. If
the vehicle is left unattended for
a long time with the light control
switch set to a position other
than "OFF", the battery may be
discharged.
