ON / : 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 next to the
clock in the center portion of the dash-
board.
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 remain illuminated or off simulta-
neously even after the system check
period, the system is malfunctioning.
Contact your SUBARU dealer immedi-
ately for an inspection.
