WARNING
●Do not let a rear passenger lift the front passenger seat with their feet or press on the seatback with their legs .
●Do not put objects under the front passenger seat .
●Do not recline the front passenger seatback so far that it
touches a rear seat . This may cause the “ AIR BAG OFF ” indicator light to be illuminated ,
which indicates that the SRS airbags for the front passenger will not activate in the event of a
severe accident . If the seatback touches the rear seat , return the seatback to a position where it
does not touch the rear seat . Keep the front passenger seatback as upright as possible
when the vehicle is moving . Reclining the seatback excessively may lessen the effectiveness of the seat belt system .
●If an adult sits in the front passenger seat , the “ AIR BAG ON ” indicator light is illuminated . If the “ AIR BAG OFF ” indicator is illuminated , ask the passenger to sit up straight , well back in
the seat , feet on the floor , and with the seat belt worn correctly . If the “ AIR BAG OFF ” indicator
still remains illuminated , either ask the passenger to move to the rear seat , or if that is not
possible , move the front passenger seat fully rearward .
●When it is unavoidable to install a forward-facing child restraint system on the front passenger seat , install the child restraint system on the front passenger seat in the proper order . ( �P . 49 )
●Do not modify or remove the front seats .
●Do not kick the front passenger seat or subject it to severe impact . Otherwise , the SRS warning light may come on to indicate a malfunction of the front passenger occupant classification system . In this case , contact your SUBARU dealer
immediately .
●Child restraint systems installed on the rear seat should not contact the front seatbacks .
●Do not use a seat accessory , such as a cushion and seat cover , that covers the seat cushion surface .
●Do not modify or replace the upholstery of the front seat .
●Adjust the front passenger seat so that the head restraint does not touch the ceiling . If the head
restraint is left in contact with the ceiling , the system may not detect the front passenger properly , leading to improper operation of the airbags .
