WARNING
If the warning light exhibits any of
the following conditions, there may
be a malfunction in the seatbelt
pretensioners and/or SRS airbag
system. We recommend that you
have the system checked immedi-
ately by your nearest SUBARU deal-
er. Unless checked and properly
repaired, the seatbelt pretensioners
and/or SRS airbags will operate
improperly (e.g. SRS airbags may
inflate in a very minor collision or
not inflate in a severe collision),
which may increase the risk of
injury.
