Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags/*SRS airbag (Supplemental Restraint System airbag)
and OFF indicators do not work properly
even when the front passengers seat is
dry, do not allow anyone to sit on the front
passengers seat and have the occupant
detection system checked by your
SUBARU dealer.
Also, if luggage or electronic devices are
placed on the front passengers seat, this
may adversely affect the ability of the
system to determine deployment. This
may prevent the front passengers frontal
airbag ON and OFF indicators from work-
ing properly. Check that the indicators
work properly.
When the OFF indicator turns off and the
ON indicator illuminates, the front passen-
gers frontal airbag may deploy during a
collision. Remove luggage and electronic
devices from the front passengers seat.
CAUTION
Electrical devices, such as cell
phones, lapto ps, portable music
players, or electronic games, espe-
cially when connected to the acces-
sory power outlet and placed on the
front passenger s seat or used by
the person sitting in the front pas-
sengers seat, may affect the opera-
tion of the occupant detection sys-
tem. If the occupant detection sys-
tem warning light illuminates or
operates erratically when using an
electronic device in the vehicle, at
first try to relocate that device to
avoid it creating any interference. If
the device continues to cause inter-
ference, the use of that device in the
vehicle should be discontinued.
! Conditions in which front passen-
gers SRS frontal airbag is not
activated
The front passengers SRS frontal airbag
will not be activated when any of the
following conditions are met regarding the
front passengers seat:
. The seat is empty.
. The seat is equipped with an appro-
priate child restraint system and an infant
is restrained in it. (See WARNING that
follows.)
. The front passengers occupant detec-
tion system is malfunctioning.
WARNING
NEVER INSTALL A REARWARD FA-
CING CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT
PASSENGERS SEAT EVEN IF THE
FRONT PASSENGERS SRS FRON-
TAL AIRBAG IS DEACTIVATED. Be
sure to install it in the REAR seat in
a correct manner. Also, it is strongly
recommended that any forward fa-
cing child seat or booster seat be
installed in the REAR seat, and that
even children who have outgrown a
child restraint system be also
seated in the REAR seat. This is
because children sitting in the front
passengers seat may be killed or
severely injured should the fro nt
passengers SRS frontal airbag de-
ploy. REAR seats are the safest
place for children.
CAUTION
When the front passengers seat is
occupied by an infant in an appro-
priate child restraint system, ob-
serve the following precautions.
Failure to do so may interfere with
the proper operation of the occu-
pant detection system, activating
the front passengers SRS frontal
airbag even though that seat is
occupied by the infant in the child
restraint system.
. Do not place any article (includ-
ing electronic devices) on the
seat other than the infant in the
child restraint system.
