Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags/*SRS airbag (Supplemental Restraint System airbag)
WARNING
Do not hang coat hangers or other
hard or pointed objects on the coat
hooks. If such items were hanging
on the coat hooks during deployment of the SRS curtain airbags,
they could cause serious injuries by
coming off the coat hooks and being
thrown through the cabin or by
preventing deployment of the curtain airbags.
Before hanging clothing on the coat
hooks, make sure there are no sharp
objects in the pockets. Hang clothing directly on the coat hooks without using hangers.

WARNING
. Do not put any kind of clothes or
other objects over either front
seatback and do not attach labels
or stickers to the front seat surface on or near the SRS side
airbag. They could prevent proper deployment of the SRS side
airbag, reducing protection available to the front seat’s occupant.
. Do not install a seat cover unless
it is designed exclusively for use
with a genuine SUBARU SRS
airbag. Even when using a genuine SUBARU seat cover, the SRS
side airbag system may not function normally if the seat cover is
not installed correctly.
WARNING
Place children in the rear seat
properly restrained at all times. The
SRS airbag deploys with considerable speed and force and can injure
or even kill children, especially if
they are not restrained or improperly restrained. Because children
are lighter and weaker than adults,
their risk of being injured from
deployment is greater.
For that reason, we strongly recommend that ALL children (including
those in child seats and those that
have outgrown child restraint devices) sit in the REAR seat properly
restrained at all times in a child
