Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags
. Do not apply any strong impact to the
front passenger's seat such as by kicking.
. Do not spill liquid on the front passen-
ger's seat. If liquid is spilled, wipe it off
immediately.
. Do not remove or disassemble the front
passenger's seat.
. Do not install any accessory (such as
an audio amplifier) other than a genuine
SUBARU accessory under the front pas-
senger's seat.
. Do not place anything (shoes, umbrel-
la, etc.) under the front passenger's seat.
. The front passenger's seat must not be
used with the head restraint removed.
. Do not leave any article including a
child restraint system on the front passen-
ger's seat or the seatbelt tongue and
buckle engaged when you leave your
vehicle.
. Do not place a magnet near the
seatbelt buckle and the seatbelt retractor.
If the seatbelt buckle switch and/or front
passenger's occupant detection system
have failed, the SRS airbag system
warning light will illuminate. Have the
system inspected by your SUBARU deal-
er immediately if the SRS airbag system
warning light illuminates.
If your vehicle has sustained impact, this
may affect the proper function of the
SUBARU advanced frontal airbag system.
Have your vehicle inspected at your
SUBARU dealer.
NOTE
The front passenger's SRS side airbag,
SRS curtain airbag and seatbelt pre-
tensioner are not controlled by the
SUBARU advanced frontal airbag sys-

! Passenger's frontal airbag ON and
OFF indicators
: Front passenger's frontal airbag ON
indicator
: Front passenger's frontal airbag OFF
indicator
The front passenger's frontal airbag ON
and OFF indicators show you the status of
the front passenger's SRS frontal airbag.
The indicators are located in the center
portion of the instrument panel.
When the ignition switch is turned to the
"ON" position, both the ON and OFF
indicators illuminate for 6 seconds during
which time the system is checked. Follow-
ing the system check, both indicators turn
off for 2 seconds. After that, one of the
indicators illuminates depending on the
status of the front passenger's SRS frontal
airbag determined by the SUBARU ad-
vanced frontal airbag system monitoring.
If the front passenger's SRS frontal airbag
is activated, the passenger's frontal airbag
ON indicator will illuminate while the OFF
indicator will remain off.
If the front passenger's SRS frontal airbag
is deactivated, the passenger's frontal
airbag ON indicator will remain off while
the OFF indicator will illuminate.
With the ignition switch turned to the "ON"
position, if both the ON and OFF indica-
tors simultaneously remain illuminated or
off even after the system check period, the
system is malfunctioning. Contact your
SUBARU dealer immediately for an in-
spection.
