About EyeSight

EyeSight
EyeSight is a driving support system that uses a range of functions to assist the driver in
making decisions in order to provide for more safe and comfortable driving and to reduce
driver fatigue. Making use of images created by the stereo camera specially designed by
SUBARU, EyeSight detects the vehicle in front, obstacles, traffic lanes and other items.
Drivers are responsible for driving safely. Always comply with all
traffic rules and regulations regardless of the fact that your vehicle
is equipped with EyeSight. Always maintain a safe following dis-
tance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you, pay
attention to your surroundings and driving conditions, and take
necessary actions in order to maintain a safe following distance.
Never attempt to drive relying on EyeSight alone.
EyeSight is intended to assist the driver in making decisions in
order to reduce the risk of accidents or damage and lessen the bur-
den on the driver.
When an EyeSight warning is activated, pay attention to what is in
front of you and to your surroundings, and take necessary actions.
This system is not designed to support driving in poor visibility or
in extreme weather conditions, or to protect against careless driv-
ing when the driver is not paying complete attention to the road
ahead. It also cannot prevent collisions from occurring in all driving
conditions.
There are limits to the EyeSight recognition performance and con-
trol performance. Be sure to read the instructions for each function
before using the system, and always use it properly. Improper use
may lead to failure of control performance, which could cause an
accident.
