About EyeSight

EyeSight is a driving support system that uses a range of functions to assist the driver in making decisions in order to provide for more safe and comfortable driving and to reduce driver fatigue. Making use of images created by stereo cameras specially designed by SUBARU, EyeSight detects the vehicle in front, obstacles, traffic lanes and other items.

EyeSight

WARNING

Drivers are responsible for driving safely. Always comply with all traffic rules and regulations regardless of the fact that your vehicle is equipped with EyeSight. Always maintain a safe following dis- tance behind the vehicle in front of you, pay attention to your sur- roundings and the driving conditions, operate the brake pedal and take other action as necessary in order to maintain a safe following distance. Never attempt to drive relying on EyeSight alone. EyeSight is intended to assist the driver in making decisions in order to reduce the chance of accidents or damage and lessen the burden on the driver. When a warning is activated, pay attention to what is in front of you and to your surroundings, operate the brake pedal and take other action as necessary. This system is not designed to support driving in poor visibility or in extreme weather conditions, or to protect against careless driv- ing when the driver is not paying complete attention to the road ahead. It also cannot prevent collisions from occurring in all driving conditions. There are limits to the EyeSight recognition performance and con- trol performance. Be sure to read the instructions for each function before using the system, and always use it properly. Improper use may lead to failure of control performance, which could cause an accident. Refer to the following pages for each function: For the Pre-Collision Braking System, refer to page 22. For Adaptive Cruise Control, refer to page 34. For Pre-Collision Throttle Management, refer to page 62. For Conventional Cruise Control, refer to page 75.

The EyeSight system in your vehicle is designed for use in countries in which traffic drives on the right-hand side of the road. EyeSight for LHD vehicles such as yours is not designed for use in countries in which vehicles are driven on the left-hand side of the road. The system may not operate correctly under the conditions listed below.

When these conditions occur, turn off the Pre-Collision Braking System. Also, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control and Conventional Cruise Control.

- The tire pressure is not correct.*1 - The temporary spare tire is installed on any wheel.*1

CAUTION The characteristics of the stereo cameras are similar to those of human

eyes. For this reason, conditions that make it difficult for the driver to see in the forward direction have the same effect on the stereo cameras and make it difficult for the system to detect vehicles, obstacles and traffic lanes.

Detection by the EyeSight system is limited to objects that are within the range of the stereo cameras field of vision. Also, after an object enters the range of the cameras field of vision, it may take some time for the system to detect it as a controllable target and warn the driver.

Under the conditions listed below, it will become more difficult for the sys- tem to detect the vehicle in front, motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians and obstacles on the road, and lane markers. Also, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating. However, the temporary stop will be canceled once these conditions have improved and the vehicle is driven for a short period of time.

- Bad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog). In particu- lar, the system is more likely to temporarily stop operating when there is an oil film adhering to the windshield, a glass coating has been applied or old wipers are used.)

- When affected by strong light from the front (sunlight or headlight beams of oncoming traffic, etc.)

- When the front windshield washer is being used. - The windshield has become fogged, or snow, dirt, dust or frost has

adhered to it, reducing the stereo cameras field of view. - The vehicle is tilted at an extreme angle due to loaded cargo or other

factors. - When visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor in the air, or

when the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic causes water, snow, dirt or other substances to obscure the view

- When the stereo cameras field of view is obstructed (for example by a canoe on the roof of the vehicle)

- When passing through the entrance or exit of a tunnel - When the rear aspect of the vehicle in front is low, small or irregular (for

example a low bed trailer, etc.) - When there is a fence, a wall or a shutter, etc. with a uniform pattern (a

striped pattern, brick, etc.) or with no pattern in front - When there is a wall or door made of glass or a mirror in front - When driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that

does not have its taillights on - When passing a banner or flag, low branches on a tree or thick/tall vege-

tation - On steep uphill or downhill grades - When the stereo cameras are obstructed by a hand, etc. (If even one of

the cameras is obstructed, the system does not operate properly.) - When it is completely dark and no objects are detected - When the area around the vehicle has a uniform color (such as when

completely covered in snow, etc.) - When the stereo camera lenses are dirty due to fingerprints, etc. - When accurate detection is not possible due to reflections in the front

windshield - When the stereo cameras have become misaligned due to a strong

impact Under the conditions listed below, EyeSight may temporarily stop

operating. If this occurs, EyeSight will resume operating when the conditions improve.

- The temperature inside the vehicle is high, such as after the vehicle was left in bright sunshine, or the temperature inside the vehicle is low, such as after the vehicle was left in an extremely cold environment.

- Immediately after the engine starts When there is a malfunction in the EyeSight system, turn off the Pre-Colli-

sion Braking System ( refer to page 32) and the Lane Departure Warning ( refer to page 70), and stop using the Adaptive Cruise Control and Con- ventional Cruise Control. Contact a SUBARU dealer and have the system inspected.

When the Vehicle Dynamics Control warning light is illuminated, the Pre- Collision Braking System may not operate properly. If the indicator light is illuminated, turn off the Pre-Collision Braking System. Also, do not use the Adaptive Cruise Control or Conventional Cruise Control.

Handling of the Stereo Cameras

CAUTION A function is included that will automatically detect that the fronts of the

stereo cameras are dirty. However it is not 100% effective. Under certain conditions, this function may fail to detect that the fronts of the stereo cameras have become dirty. In addition, this function may not detect that there is snow or ice on the windshield close to the stereo cam- eras. In such conditions, be sure to keep the windshield clean at all times (indicated by ). Otherwise the system may not operate correctly. When this function detects that the fronts of the stereo cameras are dirty, no EyeSight functions are activated except for Conventional Cruise Control.

The stereo camera is a precision component. Always observe the following precautions especially when handling lenses.

- Never touch the stereo camera lenses, and do not attempt to wipe or clean the lenses. Doing so could damage or soil the lens, and lead to improper system performance. If you ever touch a lens for any reason, be sure to contact a SUBARU dealer.

- When cleaning the front windshield, cover the front of the camera casing with paper that does not collect dust, such as copy paper. Affix the paper to prevent glass cleaner from getting on the camera lenses. At this point, make sure that the tapes adhesive sur- face does not come in contact with the windshield or the lens. Be sure to remove the paper after cleaning.

- When having the inside of windshield cleaned at a service station, etc., be sure to request that the attendant covers the camera covers before washing the vehicle.

- Do not subject the stereo cameras to a strong impact. - Do not remove or disassemble the stereo cameras. - Do not change the positions where the stereo cameras are installed or

modify any of the surrounding structures. Do not install an interior rearview mirror other than a genuine SUBARU

rearview mirror (such as a wide-type mirror) and the sun visor. Also, use the rearview mirror so that it does not obstruct the stereo cameras. Failure to do so may affect the stereo cameras field of vision and could prevent the EyeSight system from functioning properly.

Do not install any accessories other than the ones designated by SUBARU on the prohibited areas shown in the illustrations (grey zones). Even if some accessories are installed on the outside of the prohibited areas, abnormal operation of EyeSight may occur due to the reflection of the light or any objects. In this situation, move the accessories. For details, contact a SUBARU dealer.

Do not place any objects on top of the instrument panel. The stereo cameras may not be able to detect objects accurately and the EyeSight system may not function properly due to reflections in the front windshield. For details, contact a SUBARU dealer.

If the top of the instrument panel is polished with chemicals or other sub- stances, the stereo cameras may not be able to detect objects accurately and the EyeSight system may not operate properly due to reflections in the front windshield.

Do not install any wiper blades other than genuine SUBARU wiper blades. Doing so may affect the stereo cameras field of vision and could prevent the EyeSight system from functioning properly.

Replace damaged wiper blades as soon as possible. The stereo cameras may not be able to detect objects accurately and the EyeSight system may not function properly due to liquid remaining on the windshield.

Do not install any accessories on the front side such as on the hood or the grille. It may affect the camera view and the system may not operate correctly.

Make sure that the cargo loaded on the roof does not obstruct or interfere in the ste- reo cameras field of view. Obstructing the stereo cam- eras view may impair the sys- tem operation. For details, contact a SUBARU dealer.

Continued from previous page Keep the windshield (outside and inside) clean at all times. When the wind-

shield has become fogged, or it has a dirt or an oil film on it, the stereo camera may not detect objects accurately and the EyeSight system may not operate correctly. Never mount any device to the center air vent, as any airflow change may impact performance of the EyeSight system.

Do not place any stickers or accessories on the windshield (outside or inside). If you have to do so (for example, legally required or electronic toll tag), avoid the area directly in front of the camera. Doing so may adversely affect the field of vision of the stereo camera and can cause improper operation of the system. For details, contact a SUBARU dealer.

Do not use any glass coating agents or similar substances on the wind- shield. Doing so may prevent the system from operating correctly.

Do not install a film on the front windshield. The system may not operate correctly.

If there are scratches or cracks on the front windshield, contact a SUBARU dealer.

To have the front windshield replaced or repaired, contact a SUBARU dealer. Do not install a front windshield other than a genuine SUBARU front windshield. The stereo cameras may not be able to detect objects accurately and the EyeSight system may not operate properly.

EyeSight includes the following functions.

Pre-Collision Braking System This function uses a following distance warning feature to warn the driver to take evasive action when there is the possibility of a collision with a vehicle or obstacle in front of the drivers vehicle. If the driver still does not take evasive action, the brakes are quickly applied automatically just before the collision in order to reduce the collision damage or, if possible, prevent the collision. Refer to page 22.

Adaptive Cruise Control This function maintains the set vehicle speed and when there is a vehicle in front in the same traffic lane, it tracks the speed of the vehicle in front up to the maximum of the set vehicle speed. Refer to page 34.

Lane Keep Assist This function helps suppress lane drifting by detecting lane markings (e.g., white lines) on highways, etc. and by assisting steering operation. Refer to page 54.

Pre-Collision Throttle Management This function reduces accidental forward movement caused by the select lever being placed in the wrong position or the accelerator pedal being accidently depressed, or depressed too strongly. Refer to page 62.

Lane Departure Warning This function warns the driver when the vehicle is about to depart the traffic lane during driv- ing. Refer to page 68.

Lane Sway Warning This system detects vehicle drifting caused by driver fatigue, failure to concentrate on the road, inattention, strong crosswinds or other factors, and warns the driver. Refer to page 71.

Pre-Collision Braking System When there is the risk of a rear-end collision with an obstacle in front, the EyeSight system helps to minimize or prevent a collision by warning the driver. If the driver still does not take evasive action to avoid a collision, the brakes can be automatically applied just before the collision in order to reduce impact damage, or if possible, prevent the collision. If the driver takes evasive action to avoid a collision, Pre-Collision Brake Assist will operate in order to help the driver to prevent the collision. This system can be effective not only with direct rear-end collisions, but also with offset rear-end collisions. This function can be activated when the select lever is in the , or

positions.

WARNING

Never use the Pre-Collision Braking System and Pre-Collision Brake Assist to stop your car or avoid a collision under ordinary conditions. These functions cannot prevent collisions under all conditions. If the driver relies only on the Pre-Collision Braking System for Brake operation, collisions may occur.

When a warning is activated, pay attention to the front of the vehicle and its surroundings, and operate the brake pedal and/or take other actions if nec- essary.

The EyeSight Pre-Collision Braking System is primarily designed to pre- vent rear-end collisions with other vehicles when possible and to minimize damage and injuries in the event of a collision. In addition to other vehi- cles, things such as motorbikes, bicycles and pedestrians can also be treated as obstacles. However, there may be cases when detection is not possible depending on a variety of conditions*2. For example, when a vehi- cle is viewed from the side, oncoming vehicle, vehicles approaching in reverse, small animals or children, or walls or doors are not likely to be detected.

The Pre-Collision Braking System will operate at the point when it deter- mines that a collision cannot be avoided and is designed to apply strong braking force just before a collision. The result of this varies depending on a variety of conditions*2. Because of this, performance of this function will not always be the same.

When the Pre-Collision Braking System is activated, it will continue to operate even if the accelerator pedal is partially depressed. However, it will be canceled if the accelerator pedal is deeply depressed.

If the driver depresses the brake pedal or turns the steering wheel, the sys- tem may determine that this constitutes evasive action by the driver, and the automatic braking control may not activate in order to allow the driver full control.

When the difference in speed with the obstacle in front is the following fig- ure*1 or more, it may not be possible to avoid a collision. Even if the speed difference is the following figure*1 or less, in cases such as when another vehicle cuts in front of you, or in other cases depending on visibility, the condition of road surface and other factors*2, the function may be unable to stop the vehicle or may not activate. Pre-Collision Brake Assist also may not activate depending on the conditions*2 listed below.

*1: For vehicles: approximately 30 MPH (50 km/h), For pedestrians: approximately 20 MPH (35 km/h) *2: Conditions

- Distance to obstacle in front of you, speed difference, proximity condi- tions, lateral displacement (the amount of offset)

- Vehicle conditions (amount of load, number of occupants, etc.) - Road conditions (grade, slipperiness, shape, bumps, etc.) - When visibility ahead is poor (rain, snow, fog or smoke, etc.)

CAUTION In the following situations, turn off the Pre-Collision Braking System. Other-

wise the Pre-Collision Braking System may activate unexpectedly. - When the vehicle is being towed - When loading the vehicle onto a carrier - When a chassis dynamometer, free-rollers or similar equipment is used - When a mechanic lifts up the vehicle, starts the engine and spins the

wheels freely - When passing hanging banners, flags or branches, or when thick/tall

vegetation is contacting the vehicle - When using a drive-through

car wash

The Pre-Collision Braking System may activate in the following situations. Therefore concentrate on safe driving.

- When passing through an automatic gate (opening and shutting) - When driving close to the vehicle in front - When driving in a location where the grade of the road changes rapidly

- When visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor in the air, or when the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic causes water, snow, dirt or other substances to obscure the view

- When passing through clouds of steam or smoke, etc.

- When the exhaust gas emitted by the vehicle in front is clearly visible in cold weather, etc.

- When there is an obstacle on a curve or intersection

- When narrowly passing a vehicle or an object

- When stopping very close to a wall or a vehicle in front

If there is cargo or installed accessories, etc. that are pro- truding over the edge of the front bumper, the vehicles length will increase and the system may not be able to pre- vent a collision.

If the driver operates the brake pedal during automatic braking, the pedal may feel stiff; however, this is nor- mal. By depressing the brake pedal further you can apply more braking force.

NOTE Some unusual noises may be audible during automatic braking. This is caused by the braking control and is normal.

Detection of pedestrians The EyeSight system can also detect pedestrians. The EyeSight system detects pedestrians from their size, shape and movement. The system detects a pedestrian when the contour of the head and shoulders are clear.

WARNING

The EyeSight systems Pre-Collision Braking function also treats pedestrians as obstacles. However, depending on the conditions, there may be cases when the system cannot detect a pedestrian. In the following conditions, the possibility that the system may not be able to detect a pedestrian as an object is particularly high. When pedestrians are walking in a group When a pedestrian is next to a wall or other obstacle When a pedestrian is using an umbrella When a pedestrian is wearing clothes that are a similar color to the sur-

rounding environment When a pedestrian is carrying bulky luggage When a pedestrian is bent over, crouching down or lying down When a pedestrian is in a dark location When a pedestrian suddenly crosses in front of you from the side or sud-

denly runs in front of you

When there is an obstacle in the forward direction during driving, the system activates in the following sequence in order to warn the driver, activate braking control, and active the brake lights.

Following Distance Warning: When the system determines that there is a risk of collision, a buzzer sounds repeated short beeps and the indicators on the multi information display illuminate to warn the driver. The Following Distance Warning operates when Adaptive Cruise Control is not set. When the driver depresses the brake pedal to decelerate and achieves a suitable following distance, the warning is canceled.

First Braking and Warning: When the system determines that there is a high risk of collision with an obstacle in front, a buzzer sounds repeated short beeps and the indicators on the multi information display illu- minate to warn the driver, and braking control is activated and the engine output, in some situations, is also controlled. If the system determines that the amount of evasive action (braking, steering, etc.) taken by the driver has reduced the risk of collision, braking activa- tion is canceled.

Secondary Braking and Warning: If the system then determines that the risk of collision is extremely high, the buzzer changes to a continuous beeping sound and stronger braking control is activated. If, despite any eva- sive action taken by the driver, the system subsequently determines that a collision is unavoidable, braking control and the engine output control are continued. Even after the vehicle has stopped, depress the brake pedal.

Vehicle restart: After the vehicle is completely stopped by the automatic braking system, brake will be slightly released 2 seconds after vehicle stop. After sounding a short tone beep, beep, ding, the vehicle starts creeping. To stop the vehicle completely, depress the brake pedal after the vehicle has stopped.

When the Pre-Collision Braking System is activated (when the system determines that there is a high risk of collision with an obstacle in front), if the driver depresses the brake pedal, the system determines that this is emergency braking and activates braking assist automat- ically.

Neither first braking nor secondary braking will operate in the following cases.

- When the vehicle is traveling at approximately 1 MPH (1 km/h) or less (When the select lever is in the position and your vehicle speed is approximately 2 MPH (4 km/h) or less) or 100 MPH (160 km/h) or more

- When Vehicle Dynamics Control is active If the system detects the brake lights of the vehicle in front, your vehicle

will start decelerating earlier than if it does not. There are some cases where the first braking is applied for a longer period

of time. One of the reasons for this is due to a large speed difference with an obstacle in front. In those cases, stronger or weaker braking control may be activated.

Pre-Collision Braking Assist operation

CAUTION If the driver depresses the brake pedal manually while following distance warning is activated, the Pre-Collision Braking Assist will not work. (The vehicle decelerates with the normal braking force operated by the driver.)

NOTE Pre-Collision Braking Assist function does not operate when the vehicle

speed is approximately 7 MPH (10 km/h) or less or 100 MPH (160 km/h) or more.

For information about the braking assist function, refer to the Owners Manual for your vehicle.

Adaptive Cruise Control Adaptive Cruise Control is a driving support system intended to allow more comfortable driving on expressways, freeways and interstate highways. The vehicle in front in the same traffic lane is detected by means of the stereo cameras, and your vehicle tracks the vehicle in front (up to the maximum speed of the set vehicle speed) while automatically maintaining a following distance that corresponds to the speed of the vehicle in front. The system uses the vehicles conventional braking system to stop your vehicle when the vehicle in front is stopped. The vehicle is capable of being controlled at a speed between approximately 0 and 90 MPH (145 km/h). Please remember that you should not exceed posted speed limits.

WARNING

This system does not provide the driver with an automatic driving function that handles all traffic conditions.

Do not rely excessively on Adaptive Cruise Control. This system is not intended to assist in driving when the driver is not paying full attention to what is ahead of him/her due to distractions or a lack of concentration while driving, or under conditions of poor visibility. It is not intended to pre- vent rear-end collisions. Strive for safe driving at all times. Always maintain a safe following dis- tance behind the vehicle in front of you, pay attention to your surroundings and the driving conditions, and operate the brake pedal and take other action as necessary.

Set the set vehicle speed within a range that is appropriate to the road con- ditions and surrounding environment.

Before using the system, perform a daily inspection and verify that there are no malfunctions of the tires or brakes. Refer to the separate Warranty and Maintenance Booklet.

The system may not operate correctly under the conditions listed below. When these conditions occur, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control.

- The tire pressure is not correct.*1 - The temporary spare tire is installed on any wheel.*1 - Tires that are worn or have large variations in wear conditions are

installed.*1 - Tires other than those of the designated size are installed.*1 - Flat tires have been fixed temporarily with a tire repair kit. - The suspension has been modified (including a genuine SUBARU sus-

pension that has been modified). - Any object that disturbs the stereo cameras view is installed on the vehi-

cle. - The headlights are dirty or they have snow and ice or dirt on them.

(Objects are not correctly illuminated and are difficult to detect.) - The optical axes are not aligned correctly. (Objects are not correctly illu-

minated and are difficult to detect.) - The lights including headlights and fog lamps have been modified. - Vehicle operation has become compromised due to an accident or mal-

function. - The brake system warning light is illuminated in red. - A heavy cargo is loaded onto or inside the vehicle. - The maximum number of occupants is exceeded. - There is something wrong with the combination meter; such as when the

lights do not illuminate, the beeps do not sound, the display is different from when it is normal, etc.*2 *1: The wheels and tires have functions that are critically important. Be

Continued on next page

Adaptive Cruise Control is designed for use on expressways, freeways, toll roads, interstate highways and similar limited access roads. It is not intended to be used in city traffic. In the following conditions, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control. Doing so may result in an accident.

- Ordinary roads (roads other than those mentioned above) Depending on the driving environment (complexity of roads and other factors), the system may not be able to perform as the traffic conditions require, and that may result in an accident.

- Roads with sharp curves or winding roads - Frozen roads, snow-covered roads or other slippery road surfaces

The tires may spin, causing loss of control of the vehicle. - Traffic conditions when frequent acceleration and deceleration make it diffi-

cult to maintain the following distance It may not be possible for the system to perform as the traffic conditions require.

- Steep downhill grades The set vehicle speed may be exceeded.

- On a steep continuous downhill grade The brakes may overheat.

- Roads and overpasses with repeated steep uphill and downhill grades Detection of the vehicle in front may be lost, or the road surface may be detected instead of the vehicle in front, making correct control impossible.

- When entering a sharp curve into an interchange or junction, or a service area, parking area, toll booth or other facilities Detection of the vehicle in front may not be possible.

- When there are changes in brightness, such as at a tunnel entrance or exit - When visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor blowing in the

wind, or when the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic causes water, snow, dirt or dust to obscure the view Detection of the vehicle in front may be lost, or water or other substances may be incorrectly detected instead, making correct control impossible.

- When there is snow, frost, dirt or dust on the windshield or it is clouded

Continued from previous page - When water droplets from rain or the window washer, or dirt has not

been fully wiped off the windshield It may not be possible to detect the vehicle in front, making correct control impossible.

- When the stereo cameras field of view is obstructed (for example by a canoe on the roof of the vehicle)

The stereo cameras may have difficulty detecting the following objects or conditions. Operate the brake pedal and take other actions as necessary.

- Vehicles at significantly different speeds (vehicles driving slowly, stopped or oncoming vehicles, etc.)

- Vehicles cutting into your lane - Motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians and animals, etc. - When light is poor in the evening or early morning - When driving at night or in a tunnel without the headlights on - When driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that

does not have its taillights on - When affected by strong light from the front (sunlight or headlight high

beams, etc.) - Vehicles in front that have

a rear aspect that is low, small or irregular (the sys- tem may recognize another part of the vehicle and will determine opera- tion from that) An empty truck or trailer

that has no cargo in the cargo bed being affected by wind

Vehicles that have cargo protruding from their back ends

Non-standard shaped ve- hicles (vehicle transport- ers or vehicles with a sidecar fitted, etc.)

Vehicles that are low - Objects that are located close to the bumper of your vehicle

When you do not want to use Adaptive Cruise Control, be sure to turn the (CRUISE) switch off. If the switch is left on, cruise control may be

accidentally engaged, possibly resulting in an accident. Before using Adaptive Cruise Control, be sure to fully verify the safety of

the vehicle occupants and the area around the vehicle. Never operate the cruise control from outside the vehicle.

Detection of the vehicle in front by the EyeSight stereo cameras Under the following road conditions or conditions of your vehicle, detection

of the vehicle in front may not be possible. Vehicles in neighboring traffic lanes or roadside objects may also be incorrectly detected. Under condi- tions such as these, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control. If cruise control is currently in use, operate the brake pedal and take other action as neces- sary.

- When tracking begins from a short following distance, such as when the vehicle in front is a vehicle that cut into your lane

- When driving on curved roads, at the start and end of a curve and on roads with continuous curves (These conditions make it difficult for the system to detect vehicles because they are outside the detectable area.)

- When driving on an on- ramp or off-ramp to a free- way, highway, or other restricted access road (EyeSight Adaptive Cruise Control is not designed for use in this kind of driving environment.)

- When driving in an urban, or suburban environment (Adaptive Cruise Control is not appropriate for use in these driving areas. Adaptive Cruise Control should only be used on limited-access highways.)

- When the vehicle in front is not directly ahead of your vehicle and is shifted to one side

- When there is an obstacle at the side of the road

- When the relative speed difference compared to the vehicle in front is large

- When a vehicle cuts into your lane in front of you

- When the distance between vehicles is extremely short

- When your vehicle is drift- ing within the lane

- When driving on a bumpy or unpaved road surface

- When driving on a road with extremely narrow lanes, such as when traffic restrictions are in effect or in areas where construction work is taking place

- When normal driving has become compromised due to an accident or malfunction

- When extremely heavy cargo is loaded in the cargo area, rear seat or trunk of your vehicle

There are limits to the capabilities of Adaptive Cruise Control. Even when the vehicle in front is detected, the system may not be able to decelerate in time in cases such as when the difference in speeds is large or when the vehicle in front decelerates suddenly. Operate the brake pedal and decel- erate as necessary.

If the buzzer sounds frequently, do not use Adaptive Cruise Control. Even when the following distance is short, the brake more warning may

not activate in the following cases. - When the relative speed difference compared to the vehicle in front is

small (the two vehicles are traveling at almost the same speed) - When the vehicle in front is traveling faster than your vehicle (the follow-

ing distance is gradually increasing) - When another vehicle cuts into your lane very close to your vehicle - When the vehicle in front decelerated suddenly - When there are repeated uphill and downhill grades

CAUTION After Adaptive Cruise Control has started, it maintains control continuously

according to the behavior of the vehicle in front. When your vehicle comes to a stop if the vehicle in front has stopped, the stay-stopped function is engaged. However, if the EyeSight stereo cameras lost detection of the vehicle in front, the system may not stop your vehicle. Operate the brake pedal and maintain the correct following distance as necessary. Be aware that the EyeSight system has difficulty detecting objects or vehicles that have a relative speed in comparison to your vehicle. Therefore, if the EyeSight system loses detection just as you are approaching a line of stopped cars, for example - you will have to brake manually.

There is no possibility that the vehicle will automatically begin moving from a stay-stopped condition without operation from the driver.

Braking may not be sufficient depending on the following conditions. Oper- ate the brake pedal and decelerate as necessary.

- Vehicle conditions (amount of load, number of occupants, etc.) - Road conditions (grade, slipperiness, shape, bumps, etc.) - Vehicle maintenance status (brake systems, tire wear, air pressure, tem-

porary spare tire is being used, etc.) - When the brakes are cold. (For example, just after the engine is started

or when the outside temperature is low.) - For a short period of time when driving after the engine is started until the

engine has warmed-up - When the brakes are overheated on downhill grades (braking effective-

ness may be reduced) - When driving in rain or after washing the vehicle (the brakes may

become wet and braking effectiveness may be reduced) - When towing a trailer or another vehicle, etc.

(2) Setting Adaptive Cruise Control Press the RES/SET switch to the SET/-. Adaptive Cruise Control is now set, and cruise control will start. If no vehicle in front has been detected, the vehicle drives at the constant set target speed. When Adaptive Cruise Control is set, the set speed and are displayed on the EyeSight display area.

NOTE The target vehicle speed can be set between 25 MPH (40 km/h) and 90

MPH (145 km/h). If the vehicle speed is approximately 25 MPH (40 km/h) or less when the

vehicle speed is set, the set vehicle speed is set to 25 MPH (40 km/h). When driving on a curve, the vehicle may not accelerate, or may deceler-

ate, even if the set speed is higher than the current vehicle speed. If the (Adaptive Cruise Control indicator) does not illuminate, even

when the (CRUISE) switch is pressed, Adaptive Cruise Control will not operate.

If the (Adaptive Cruise Control indicator) does not illuminate, even when the (CRUISE) switch is pressed, there may be a malfunction in the system. Contact a SUBARU dealer and have the system inspected.

Operation of Adaptive Cruise Control When no vehicle in front is detected

The vehicle drives constantly at the set tar- get vehicle speed between approximately 25 MPH (40 km/h) and 90 MPH (145 km/h).

When a vehicle in front is detected The vehicle tracks the lead vehicle in front, and will maintain the chosen following dis- tance (there are three settings), up to the set target vehicle speed - between 25 MPH (40 km/h) and 90 MPH (145 km/h).

NOTE The buzzer sound (lead vehicle acquisition sound) that occurs when a vehicle in front is detected or no longer detected while Adaptive Cruise Control is set can be turned off by customization. Refer to page 91.

If your vehicle no longer detects the vehicle in front The vehicle gradually accelerates back to the set target vehicle speed and will drive at that constant speed. If a vehicle in front is detected while accelerating to the set target vehicle speed, vehicle tracking will be started again.

CAUTION If the driver operates the brake pedal during automatic braking, the pedal may feel stiff; however, this is not a malfunction. By depressing the brake pedal further you can apply more braking force. When the brake pedal is released it will return to its original condition.

NOTE When the brakes are applied by Adaptive Cruise Control, the vehicles

brake lights will illuminate. Even if there is no lead vehicle present, on a downhill grade, the Adaptive

Cruise Controls automatic brake may operate in order to maintain the set target vehicle speed.

Some noises may be audible during automatic braking. This is caused by the braking control and does not indicate a malfunction.

To temporarily accelerate quickly, use the accelerator pedal. After acceler- ating, the vehicle will gradually return to the set target vehicle speed shown in the gauge cluster.

There are cases where the vehicle in front has turned off the road while your vehicle is still controlled by the automatic braking operation that has activated due to the deceleration of the vehicle in front of yours. In those cases, the brake will be automatically released gradually. Depress the accelerator pedal if necessary.

The lead-vehicle tracking function has the following characteristics: - If the lead vehicles brake lamp is detected, deceleration is started more

quickly than without detection. - If the vehicle moves to the fast lane while traveling more than 37 MPH

(60 km/h), the system starts acceleration to the set vehicle speed more quickly because it is linked with the turn signal.

Increasing the set vehicle target speed Using the RES/SET switch

While driving with Adaptive Cruise Control on, operate the RES/SET switch as follows. Push to the RES/+ side briefly.

Every time the switch is pushed, the set vehicle target speed will increase to the next 5 MPH (5 km/h) increment.

Push to the RES/+ side continuously. While the switch is being pushed, the set vehicle target speed will increase by 1 MPH (1 km/h).

When operating the switch, the set vehicle target speed changes on the multi information display and the multi function display.

Using the accelerator pedal Depressing the accelerator pedal will increase vehicle speed. Once the preferred speed has been attained, push the RES/SET switch to SET/-. When the switch is pressed, the new vehicle target speed will be set. The new set vehicle speed will be displayed in the EyeSight display area.

CAUTION When Adaptive Cruise Control is operating, the actual vehicle speed is

controlled according to the lead vehicle. Therefore, if the RES/SET switch is pressed to the RES/+ and set to a speed higher than the speed of the lead vehicle, the vehicle will not accelerate - it will maintain a safe following distance as the first priority. However, because doing so changed the set vehicle target speed, when the lead vehicle is no longer detected (for example, if you change to a freeway lane with no vehicles in front), the vehicle will accelerate to that new set target speed. Change the set vehicle target speed while briefly checking the value shown in the set speed dis- play on the EyeSight display.

When the accelerator pedal is depressed with Adaptive Cruise Control on, automatic braking control and warnings by Adaptive Cruise Control will not occur. However, if there is a high risk of collision with an obstacle in front of the vehicle at this time, the warning and braking control of the Pre-Collision Braking System may activate.

Lane Keep Assist The stereo cameras detect lane markings (including Botts dots) of the lane and the system assists the steering operation by working with the electric power steering to help keep your vehicle in its lane when driving on expressways, freeways and interstate highways.

WARNING

Lane Keep Assist is not an automatic driving system. Do not overestimate the capabilities of Lane Keep Assist. It is not a sys- tem to assist inattentive driving or meant to permit driving without hold- ing the steering wheel. Make sure to grip the steering wheel while driving. To drive safely, check the distance from the vehicle in front or from a vehicle driving in parallel with your vehicle, the surrounding con- ditions and the surrounding environment while driving. If you feel that the level of control and timing by the system are different from your own driving style, the system may not support safe driving. Do not use Lane Keep Assist. Lane Keep Assist does not always operate under all situations. If you rely only on the Lane Keep Assist to stay in a lane, it may cause an accident such as a collision with an obstacle beside your lane or with a vehicle driving in an adjacent lane. Check that there are problems with the tires and brakes during a daily

inspection before using the system. * Refer to Warranty and Maintenance Booklet. The system may not operate properly under the following conditions. Do

not use Lane Keep Assist. - The air pressure of tires is not to specification.*1 - Tires that are worn or have large variations in wear conditions are

installed.*1 - Tires other than those of the designated size are installed.*1 - The wheel balance is abnormal (e.g., the balance weight is removed or

misaligned.)*1 - The wheel alignment is not adjusted within the specified value.*1 - Flat tires have been fixed temporarily with a tire repair kit. - The suspension has been modified (including genuine SUBARU parts). - Any object that disturbs the stereo cameras view is installed on the vehi-

cle.

The tires may spin, causing loss of control of the vehicle. - When entering a sharp curve into an interchange or junction, or a service

area, parking area, toll booth or other facilities. - When there are changes in brightness, such as at a tunnel entrance or

exit. - When visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor blowing in the

wind, or when the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic causes water, snow, dirt or dust to obscure the view.

- When there is snow, frost, dirt or dust on the windshield or it is clouded. - When water droplets from rain or dirt have not been fully wiped off on the

windshield. It may not be possible to detect the lane, making correct control impossi- ble.

- When the stereo cameras field of view is obstructed (for example by a canoe on the roof of the vehicle).

The stereo cameras may have difficulty detecting the objects under the follow- ing conditions and the system may not operate properly.

- When driving at night or in a tunnel without the headlights on. - When light is poor in the evening or early morning. - In bad weather (for example, rain or snow) - The distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front is short, mak-

ing it difficult to detect lane markings. - When a vehicle intruded from an adjacent lane or the vehicle in front

changed lanes. - The shape of a curve in the road suddenly changes. - Shadows of guardrails or similar objects are overlapped on the lane

markings. - When your vehicle is exposed to a strong light from the front (backlight

from the sun, headlights, etc.). - The width of a lane is narrow. - The stereo cameras may have difficulty detecting the lane due to the per-

formance of the cameras. There are no lane markings or they are very worn. The lane markings are painted in yellow. It is difficult to detect lane markings because they are similar in color to

the road surface. The lane markings are drawn in double. The width of lane markings is narrow. The indicated lines for the area are touched to walls and poles.

- The shape of lane markings suddenly changes (entrance/exit of a curve, crank and S-shaped road, etc.).

- There is curb or side wall in the road shoulder. - The brightness changes such as when you drive under an overpass.

Pre-Collision Throttle Management When an obstacle is detected in front of the vehicle, and the vehicle is stopped or traveling very slowly, if the system determines that the accelerator pedal has been depressed by more than the necessary amount (due to driver error), it greatly restricts engine output and ensures that vehicle forward movement is slower than normal in order to give the driver additional time to brake or react.

During system operation, a buzzer will sound several short beeps, and Obstacle Detected will be shown on the warning screen area of the multi information display. The lead vehicle indicator will also flash. This function only activates when the trans- mission select lever is in the or posi- tion.

WARNING

Do not rely excessively on Pre-Collision Throttle Management. Pre- Collision Throttle Management is not designed to help you avoid collisions in many situations. Always check the select lever and pedal positions as well as the surrounding environment before starting and operating the vehicle. Relying only on Pre-Collision Throttle Management could result in an accident. Pre-Collision Throttle Management is not designed to maintain the vehicle

in a stopped condition. Pre-Collision Throttle Management will not reduce acceleration under all

conditions. It is also not designed to prevent collisions. Pre-Collision Throttle Management will operate when an obstacle is

detected in front. However, this function will not reduce acceleration in cases where no obstacle is recognized (for example when approaching a cliff, etc.)

Do not intentionally depress the accelerator pedal excessively when there are obstacles nearby. If the driver relies only on Pre-Collision Throttle Management to control acceleration, collisions may occur.

Lead Vehicle Start Alert This function notifies the driver by means of a buzzer and the lead vehicle indicator on the multi information display when the drivers vehicle remains stopped after the vehicle in front has started to move forward. When the vehicle in front remains stopped continuously (within a following distance of approximately 32 ft (10 m) and the drivers vehicle remains stopped for several seconds or longer), the system continues to detect the vehicle in front and this alarm activates if the vehicle in front advances approximately 10 ft (3 m) or more while the drivers vehicle remains stationary. This function only activates when the select lever is in the , or position. When the Lead Vehicle Start Alert activates, a buzzer sounds a two-tone beep and the lead vehicle indicator moves.

NOTE The Lead Vehicle Start Alert setting can be turned on or off.

Refer to page 91. Under the following conditions, the Lead Vehicle Start Alert may activate

even when the vehicle in front has not started to move, or may not activate even after the vehicle in front has started to move:

- A motorcycle or similar object has cut in between your vehicle and the stopped vehicle in front.

- Weather or road conditions prevent detection of the vehicle in front. - The EyeSight stereo cameras lose detection of the vehicle in front.

Conventional Cruise Control

Conventional Cruise Control is a driving support system intended to allow more comfortable driving on expressways, freeways and interstate highways. It can be used to travel at a con- stant speed by maintaining the vehicle speed that was set by the driver. Please remember that you should not exceed posted speed limits.

About Conventional Cruise Control

WARNING

When Conventional Cruise Control is functioning, the system does not per- form tracking control to maintain following distance, as when using Adap- tive Cruise Control. Strive for safe driving and operate the brake pedal to decelerate the vehi- cle as necessary in order to ensure a safe following distance from the vehi- cle in front.

Under the following conditions, do not use the Conventional Cruise Control. Doing so may result in an accident.

- Roads with heavy traffic or roads with sharp curves You may fail to drive at a speed that is appropriate for the road condi- tions, possibly resulting in an accident.

- Frozen roads, snow-covered roads or slippery road surfaces The tires may spin, causing loss of control of the vehicle.

- Steep downhill grades The set vehicle speed may be exceeded.

- On a steep continuous downhill grade The brakes may overheat.

CAUTION When using Cruise Control, be sure to check the display screen to confirm which Cruise Control mode is selected: Adaptive Cruise Control or Conventional Cruise Control.

A vehicle (in front of your vehicle) is not detected, is detected later or detection is lost quickly.

Is the vehicle in front stopped, moving slowly relative to your vehicle or moving extremely slowly? Detection of stopped vehicles, vehicle moving slowly relative to your vehicle, and vehicles moving extremely slowly may be difficult.

Is the windshield dirty or fogged? If the windshield is dirty or fogged, it may not be possible to detect object or vehi- cles. Clean off the dirt or fog from the windshield, and then try using the system again.

Is the vehicle in front far away? The maximum detection distance of EyeSights stereo cameras is approximately 360 ft (110 m). Detection is not possible if the vehicle is farther away.

Is the vehicle on a curve? The detection range is limited in the left and right directions when the cameras are properly aimed.

Is the vehicle on a road with repeated uphill and downhill grades (such as an over- pass), or on a banked road? The detection range is limited in the up and down directions.

Did the vehicle detected in front change? Detection may be delayed after the vehicle in front has changed.

Have water, snow or other substances been kicked up by the vehicle in front as it drives? When water or snow have been kicked up, it may not be possible to detect the vehicle in front.

Control is activated even though no vehicle in front is detected?

Is there a vehicle in the neighboring lane? Depending on the road conditions, vehicles in neighboring lanes may be detected as well as a vehicle directly in front.

Are you driving on or near a curve? When driving on a curve, braking control may be activated in response to guard rails, the angle of the steering wheel, or roadside structures.

The Lead Vehicle Start Alert activates, even though there is no vehicle in front.

Depending on surrounding objects, traffic environment and weather, the Lead Vehicle Start Alert may issue a warning in response to objects other than a vehicle that appear in front of your vehicle.

B8222BE-A.book 97

Troubleshooting

EyeSight does not restart after a temporary stop.

Has the vehicle been parked in a cold or hot place? In either of these cases, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating until the temperature increases or decreases to a temperature at which the camera is operable.

Are you driving in the rain with old wipers or is there an oily film on the windshield? Replace the wipers with new ones, or clean the oily film off the windshield. Are you driving in poor weather conditions with heavy rain, snow, fog, or dust? In these cases, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating while visibility is very low.

Is your vehicle subject to sunlight from the front (sunset or sunrise, etc.) or to bright headlights from oncoming vehicles at nighttime? In these cases, EyeSight may temporarily stop operating.

The timing of the brake more warning is sometimes earlier and sometimes later than what seems to be normal operation.

The brake more warning sounds when the system determines that more braking is necessary, based on conditions such as the distance from the vehicle in front and the difference in speed compared to it. As a result, timing may vary depend- ing on how the brakes are applied in relation to the vehicle in front, and your rela- tive speed to that vehicle.

When the vehicle in front has turned off the road away or the distance from the vehicle in front has increased, acceleration is sometimes slower or faster.

Depending on the timing of when the detection of the vehicle in front is lost, EyeSights ability to react may be slower, causing the start of acceleration to feel delayed and braking time to feel longer than what seems to be normal operation.

Has the EyeSight system temporarily stopped?

A noise occurs when automatic braking control activates.

This is the sound of the automatic braking control operating - there are some mechanical components to the system, and they do occasionally make audible sounds during automatic braking control. It is not necessarily a malfunction.

Braking control activates frequently when driving in heavy traffic.

Unlike a human driving, the EyeSight system performs control based only on the actions of vehicles or objects in front. As a result, acceleration and deceleration may be more frequent while the system adjusts to vehicles or objects the camera system is detecting. If it is difficult to maintain a consistent following distance under certain conditions (like in bad weather or urban environments, etc.), do not use Adaptive
