SRS airbag system warning light
A diagnostic system continually monitors
the readiness of the seatbelt pretensioner
while the vehicle is being driven. The
seatbelt pretensioners share the control
modulewiththeSRSairbagsystem.
Therefore, if any malfunction occurs in a
seatbelt pretensioner, the SRS airbag
system warning light will illuminate. The
SRS airbag system warning light will show
normal system operation by lighting for
approximately 6 seconds when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the “ON” position.
The following components are monitored
by the indicator:
. Front sub sensor (right-hand side)

pact sensors)

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 collision),
which may increase the risk of
injury.
. Flashing or flickering of the warn-
ing light
. No illumination of the warning
light when the ignition switch is
first turned to the “ON” position
. Continuous illumination of the
warning light
