Foreword
TM
Congratulations on choosing a SUBARU vehicle equipped with EyeSight
.
EyeSight incorporates the latest driver assistance features available from
SUBARU, including such features as Adaptive Cruise Control, a Lead Vehicle Start
Alert and a Lane Departure and Lane Sway Warning, all of which are designed to
assist the driver in making decisions and increase driver comfort and
convenience. Initially, the operation and use of the various EyeSight features may
be unfamiliar to you. That is why we urge you to read this manual carefully before
using EyeSight. We also recommend that you first take the time to test EyeSight in
order to experience its features for yourself so that you can become familiar with
their operation.
Please keep in mind that it is the responsibility of drivers to operate their vehicles
safely at all times. Drivers should always remain alert and should never become
complacent while operating their vehicles because of the presence of EyeSight.
EyeSight is never a substitute for active driver involvement and it may not operate
optimally under all driving conditions.
This booklet is a supplement to the Owner's Manual for your SUBARU vehicle and
contains a detailed description of EyeSight. It should be read in conjunction with
your Owner's Manual so that you will gain a thorough understanding of the proper
operation of your vehicle.
The information, specifications and illustrations found in this booklet are those in
effect at the time of printing. SUBARU CORPORATION reserves the right to
change specifications and designs at any time without prior notice and without
incurring any obligation to make the same or similar changes on vehicles
previously sold.
Please keep this booklet together with your Owner's Manual and leave it in the
vehicle at the time of resale. The next owner will need the information it contains.

If the check engine light comes on and "EyeSight off check owner's manual" appears in your Subaru, it indicates a possible malfunction affecting the EyeSight system and other vehicle systems. You should take the vehicle to the nearest Subaru dealership or a qualified mechanic to diagnose the problem using a diagnostic scan tool.

  • Page 4: About Eyesight

    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.
  • Page 5 About EyeSight In LHD vehicles, EyeSight is configured for driving on the right-hand side of the road. However, it can be reconfigured by changing the Driv- ing Lane Customize setting for driving on the left-hand side.*  Page 126 If the setting for the traffic lane (driving side of the road) does not match the traffic lane, full EyeSight performance may not be available.
  • Page 6 *2: If the brake system warning light does not turn off, immediately pull the vehi- cle over in a safe place and contact a SUBARU dealer to have the system inspected. For details, refer to the Owner’s Manual for your vehicle.
  • Page 7 They also make it difficult for the system to detect vehicles, obstacles, and traffic lanes. • Detection by the EyeSight system is limited to objects that are within the range of the stereo camera’s field of view. Also, after an object enters the range of the camera’s field of view, it may take some time for the system to...
  • Page 8 - Accurate detection is not possible due to reflections in the windshield. • Under the conditions listed below, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating. If this occurs, EyeSight will resume operating when the conditions improve. - The temperature inside the vehicle is high, such as after the vehicle was left in bright sunshine, or the temperature inside the vehicle is low, such as after the vehicle was left in an extremely cold environment.
  • Page 9 About EyeSight • When there is a malfunction in the EyeSight system, turn off the Pre-Collision  Braking System ( page 41) and the Lane Departure Warning  page 102), and stop using the Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Centering Function, Lane Departure Prevention Function and Conventional Cruise Con- trol.
  • Page 10 - Never touch the stereo camera lenses, and do not attempt to wipe or clean the lenses. Doing so could damage or soil the lens, and lead to improper system performance. If you ever touch a lens for any reason, be sure to contact a SUBARU dealer.
  • Page 11 - Do not change the positions where the stereo camera is installed or modify any of the surrounding structures. • Do not install an interior rearview mirror other than a genuine SUBARU rear- view mirror (such as a wide-type mirror) and the sun visor. Also, use the rear- view mirror so that it does not obstruct the stereo camera.
  • Page 12 (gray zones). Even if some accessories are installed on the outside of the prohibited areas, abnormal operation of EyeSight may occur due to the reflection of the light or any objects. In this situation, move the accessories. For details, contact a SUBARU dealer.
  • Page 13 • Do not install any film or an additional layer of glass on the windshield. The system may not operate correctly. • If there are scratches or cracks on the windshield, contact a SUBARU dealer. • To have the windshield replaced or repaired, contact a SUBARU dealer. Do not install a windshield other than a genuine SUBARU windshield.
  • Page 14 About EyeSight EyeSight Functions EyeSight includes the following functions. ■ Pre-Collision Braking System This function uses a following distance warning feature to warn the driver to take evasive action when there is the possibility of a collision with a vehicle or obstacle in front of you. If the driver does not take evasive action, the brakes are applied automatically to help reduce vehicle collision damage or, if possible, help prevent a collision.

    If you have not pressed the (CRUISE) switch, (Adaptive Cruise Con- trol indicator) will not be shown. Is EyeSight operation temporarily stopped? When EyeSight is temporarily stopped, (EyeSight temporary stop indicator) is displayed on the combination meter display. Set Adaptive Cruise Control again after the cause for the temporary stop has been corrected.
  • Page 138 Clean off the dirt or fog from the windshield, and then try using the system again. Is the vehicle in front far away? The maximum detection distance of EyeSight’s stereo camera is approximately 360 ft (110 m). Detection is not possible if the vehicle is farther away. Is the vehicle on a curve? The detection range is limited in the horizontal directions when the stereo camera is properly aimed.
  • Page 139 Depending on the timing of when the detection of the vehicle in front is lost, EyeSight’s ability to react may be slower, causing the start of acceleration to feel delayed and braking time to feel longer than what seems to be normal operation.
  • Page 140 Braking control activates frequently when driving with Adaptive Cruise Control in heavy traffic. When Adaptive Cruise Control is activated, the EyeSight system performs control based on the movement of vehicles or objects in front. As a result, acceleration and deceleration may be more frequent while the system adjusts to vehicles or objects the camera system is detecting.
  • Page 141 If the warning light does not turn off after the engine starts, immediately contact a SUBARU dealer to have the system inspected. Lane Centering Function and Lane Departure Prevention Function were unex- pectedly canceled.
