In case of emergency

If you park your vehicle in an

emergency

The hazard warning flasher should be

used in day or night to warn other drivers

when you have to park your vehicle under

emergency conditions.

Avoid stopping on the road. It is best to

safely pull off the road if a problem occurs.

The hazard warning flasher can be acti-

vated regardless of the ignition switch po-

sition.

Turn on the hazard warning by pushing

the hazard warning flasher switch. Turn it

off by pushing the switch again.

NOTE

When the hazard warning flasher is on,

the turn signals do not work.

Temporary spare tire

y

Never tow a trailer when the tem-

porary spare tire is used. The tem-

porary spare tire is not designed

to sustain the towing load. Use of

the temporary spare tire when

towing can result in failure of the

spare tire and/or less stability of

the vehicle and may lead to an ac-

cident.

y

When a spare tire is mounted or a

wheel rim is replaced without the

original pressure sensor/trans-

mitter being transferred, the low

tire pressure warning light will

flash. This indicates the tire pres-

sure monitoring system (TPMS) is

unable to monitor all four road

wheels. Contact your SUBARU

dealer as soon as possible for tire

and sensor replacement and/or

system resetting.
