Starting and operating/BSD/RCTA
& System warning
So that it can be used safely and comfor-
tably, the Auto Start Stop system is
designed to constantly monitor the vehicle
conditions as well as the environment
inside and outside the vehicle in addition
to driver operations, and to provide various
warnings to the driver via the warning light
and/or indicator light illuminating or flash-
ing and a buzzer sounding. For details
about the warning light and indicator light,
refer to "Auto Start Stop warning light/Auto
Start Stop OFF indicator light (yellow)"
F3-32 and "Auto Start Stop indicator light
(green)" F3-32.
! Warning buzzer
The buzzer will sound when the engine
hood is opened while the engine is
stopped by the Auto Start Stop system.
When this occurs, the buzzer will stop
sounding when the following operations
are performed.
. The engine is restarted by normal
operation (refer to "Preparing to drive"
F7-8).
. The ignition switch is turned to the
"LOCK"/"OFF" position.
! Display of warning messages
(models with combination meter
display (color LCD))
If a warning message is displayed on the
combination meter display (color LCD)
while the vehicle is being driven, a
malfunction may have occurred in the Auto
Start Stop system. In this case, the Auto
Start Stop warning light will illuminate or
flash in yellow. We recommend that you
have your vehicle inspected at a SUBARU
dealer as soon as possible.

BSD/RCTA (if equipped)

The BSD/RCTA consists of rear corner
radar with Blind Spot Detection and Rear
Cross Traffic Alert.
These functions enable the system to
detect objects or vehicles to the rear,
drawing attention to the driver when
changing a lane or when driving in reverse.
WARNING
The driver is responsible for driving
safely. Always be sure to check the
surroundings with your eyes when
changing lanes or reversing the
vehicle.
The system is designed to assist the
driver to change lanes or reverse
safely by monitoring the rear and
side areas of the vehicle. However,
you cannot rely on this system alone
in assuring the safety during a lane
change or reversing. Overconfi-
dence in this system could result in
an accident and lead to serious
injury or death. Since the system
operation has various limitations,
the flashing or illumination of the
BSD/RCTA approach indicator light
may be delayed or it may not operate
