malfunctioning. However, the
conventional brake system con-
tinues to operate normally.
The ABS warning light illuminates to-
gether with the brake system warning light
if the EBD system becomes malfunction-
ing. For further details of the EBD system
malfunction warning, refer to
“
Brake Force Distribution (EBD) system
warning
NOTE
If the warning light behavior is as
shown in the following, the ABS sys-
tem may be considered normal.
.
The warning light illuminates right
after the engine is started but turns off
immediately, remaining off.
.
The warning light remains illumi-
nated after the engine has been started,
but it turns off when the vehicle speed
reaches approximately 12 km/h (8
mph).
.
The warning light illuminates during
driving, but it turns off immediately and
remains off.
When driving with an insufficient battery
voltage such as when the engine is jump
started, the ABS warning light may illumi-
nate. This is due to the low battery voltage
and does not indicate a malfunction.
When the battery becomes fully charged,
the light will turn off.

Vehicle Dynamics
Control warning light/
Vehicle Dynamics Con-
trol operation indicator
light
The light illuminates when the ignition
switch is turned to the
“
ON
”
position and
turns off several seconds after the engine
has started. This lighting pattern indicates
that the Vehicle Dynamics Control system
is operating normally.
!
Vehicle Dynamics Control warning
light
CAUTION
The Vehicle Dynamics Control sys-
tem provides its ABS control
through the electrical circuit of the
ABS system. Accordingly, if the ABS
is inoperative, the Vehicle Dynamics
Control system becomes unable to
provide ABS control. As a result, the
Vehicle Dynamics Control system
also becomes inoperative, causing
the warning light to illuminate.
Though both the Vehicle Dynamics
Control and ABS systems are inop-
erative in this case, the ordinary
functions of the brake system are
still available. You will be safe while
driving with this condition, but drive
carefully and we recommend that
you have your vehicle checked at a
SUBARU dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
NOTE
.
If the electrical circuit of the Vehicle
Dynamics Control system itself mal-
functions, the warning light only illumi-
nates. At this time, the ABS (Anti-lock
Brake System) remains fully opera-
tional.
.
The warning light illuminates when
the electronic control system of the
ABS/Vehicle Dynamics Control system
malfunctions.
The Vehicle Dynamics Control system is
probably inoperative under any of the
following conditions. We recommend that
you have your vehicle checked at a
SUBARU dealer immediately.
.
The warning light does not illuminate
when the ignition switch is turned to the
“
ON
”
position.
.
The warning light illuminates while the
vehicle is running.
