REAR SEAT REMINDER
The Rear Seat Reminder system assists you in
preventing a child or pet from being left in your
Subaru. The system monitors the opening and
closing of the rear side door. It does not
physically sense the presence of a child or pet.
The system turns on if your Subaru is started
within 30 minutes of a rear side door opening
or closing. It also turns on if a rear side door is
opened and closed when your Subaru is
running and stationary. The system remains on
if your Subaru is turned off and back on again
within 30 minutes and the rear side doors
remained closed.
When you turn your Subaru off, the system warns you audibly and with a “Reminder, Look
in Rear Seat” message in the Combination Meter Display (CMD).
The system operates only one time with each ignition cycle and opening and closing of a
rear side door. You can turn the Rear Seat Reminder off with the touchscreen by selecting
“Settings”, then the “Car” menu.
Passenger Occupant Detection and Seatbelt Reminders
To help keep your passengers
safe, your Subaru has a
passenger occupant detection
and seatbelt reminder system for
each seat, including the rear
seats.
If passengers in the rear seats do
not fasten their seatbelts while the
ignition is in the "ON" position,
the seatbelt warning lights
illuminate or blink for the specific
seat, and a warning chime may
sound.
For more information, please
refer to “Seatbelt Warning Light and Chime” in your Subaru Owner’s Manual.
