Your vehicle is equipped with a seatbelt
warning device at the drivers seat.
This device causes the seatbelt warning
light on the combination meter to illumi-
nate when the ignition switch is turned to
ON to remind the driver to wear the
seatbelt.
If the vehicle is driven at a speed no
higher than approximately 20 km/h (12.5
mph) with the drivers seatbelt not fas-
tened, the warning light will illuminate
continuously.
If the vehicle subsequently reaches a
speed of approximately 20 km/h (12.5
mph) with the drivers seatbelt not fas-
tened, the warning light will start a
repeated cycle consisting of 5 seconds
of flashing followed by 1 second of steady
illumination. At the same time, a chime will
start a repeated cycle consisting of 5
seconds of sounding followed by a 1-
second pause. If the seatbelt is fastened
at this time, the warning light will turn off
and the chime will stop sounding immedi-
ately. Thi s condition will continue for
approximately 108 seconds.
If the drivers seatbelt is still not fastened
when the 108-second period has elapsed,
the warning light will stop flashing and the
chime will stop sounding. The warning
light, however, will remain illuminated
continuously unless the seatbelt is fas-
tened.

WARNING
If the warning light exhibits any of
the following conditions, there may
be a malfunction in the seatbelt
pretensioners and/or SRS airbag
system. We recommend that you
have the system checked immedi-
ately by your nearest SUBARU deal-
er. Unless checked and properly
repaired, the seatbelt pretensioners
and/or SRS airbags will operate
improperly (e.g. SRS airbags may
inflate in a very minor collision or
not inflate in a severe co llision),
which may increase the risk of
injury.
