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.

  • Page 4: About Eyesight

    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. WARNING Drivers are responsible for driving safely.
  • Page 5 - Tires that are the wrong size are installed. - A flat tire has been fixed temporarily with a tire repair kit. - The suspension has been modified (including a genuine SUBARU suspen- sion that has been modified). - An object that obstructs the stereo camera’s view is installed on the vehicle.
  • Page 6 For details, refer to the vehicle Owner’s Manual. *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 vehicle Owner’s Manual.
  • Page 7 About EyeSight CAUTION • The characteristics of the stereo camera are similar to those of human eyes. For this reason, conditions that make it difficult for the driver to see in the for- ward direction have the same effect on the stereo camera. They also make it difficult for the system to detect vehicles, obstacles, and traffic lanes.
  • Page 8 Also, the EyeSight system may temporarily stop operating. If the EyeSight system repeatedly stops operating several times, contact a SUBARU dealer and have the system inspected. - The stereo camera lenses are smeared such as from fingerprints.
  • Page 9 - Data related to ABS, Vehicle Dynamics Control and Traction Control Func- tion • SUBARU and third parties contracted by SUBARU may acquire and use the recorded data for the purpose of vehicle research and development. SUBARU and third parties contracted by SUBARU will not disclose or provide the acquired data to any other third party except under the following condi- tions.
  • 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 About EyeSight  Continued from previous page • Do not install any accessories other than the ones designated by SUBARU on the prohibited areas shown in the illustrations (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.
  • 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.
  • Page 15 About EyeSight ■ Lane Sway Warning This function warns the driver when it detects vehicle drifting caused by driver fatigue, fail- ure to concentrate on the road, inattention, strong crosswinds or other factors.  Page 83 ■ Lead Vehicle Start Alert This function notifies the driver when the vehicle stopped in front starts moving but the driver’s vehicle remains stationary.

  • Page 26: Pre-Collision Braking System

    Pre-Collision Braking System When there is the risk of a rear-end collision with an obstacle in front, the EyeSight system helps to prevent or minimize a collision by warning the driver. If the driver still does not take evasive action to avoid a collision, the brakes can be automatically applied just before the collision in order to reduce impact damage, or if possible, prevent the collision.
  • Page 27 Pre-Collision Braking System • When the difference in speed with the obstacle in front is the following figure or more, it may not be possible to avoid a collision.

    Troubleshooting Adaptive Cruise Control cannot be activated. Did you remember to press the (CRUISE) switch? 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: White) is displayed on the combination meter display.
  • Page 113 Troubleshooting A vehicle (in front of your vehicle) is not detected, detection is delayed or detec- tion is lost quickly. Is the vehicle in front stopped, moving slowly relative to your vehicle or moving extremely slowly? Detection of stopped vehicles, vehicle moving slowly relative to your vehicle, and vehicles moving extremely slowly may be difficult.
  • Page 114 Troubleshooting Lead Vehicle Start Alert activates, even though there is no vehicle in front. Depending on surrounding objects, traffic environment and weather, Lead Vehicle Start Alert may issue a warning in response to objects other than a vehicle that appears in front of your vehicle. EyeSight does not restart after a temporary stop.
  • Page 115 Troubleshooting When the vehicle in front has turned off the roadway or the distance from the vehi- cle in front has increased, acceleration is sometimes slower or faster. 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 116 Troubleshooting Lane Keep Assist was unexpectedly canceled. Did you take your hands off the steering wheel? Did you just lightly put your hands on the steering wheel while driving? If the system does not detect the steering operation of the driver, it will temporarily cancel Lane Keep Assist.
