If any of the following problems occur, it is possible that there is a malfunc-
tion in the system. We recommend that you have your vehicle inspected by
any authorized SUBARU dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.

Neither “ON” nor “OFF” comes on.
●
The indicator light does not change when the front passenger’s front air-

WARNING
■ Front passenger’s front airbag manual cut off switch precautions
Seat children in the rear seat and always use a seatbelt and/or an appropri-
ate child restraint system. The impact of the front seat (front passenger seat)
airbag deployment may cause death or serious injury. The rear seat is the
safest seat for children in the cabin. If the child restraint device has to be
placed on the front passenger seat, turn the front passenger’s front airbag
manual cut off switch to the “OFF” position.
■
When a child restraint system is not installed on the front passenger
seat
Ensure that the airbag manual on-off system is set to “ON”.
If it is left off, the airbag may not deploy in the event of an accident, which
may result in serious injury or even death.
