Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags
1-41
– CONTINUED –
Driver ’ s SRS frontal airbag
The driver ’ s SRS frontal airbag uses a
dual stage inflator. The inflator operates in
different ways depending on the severity
of impact, backward-forward adjustment
of the driver ’ s seat position and whether or
not he/she is wearing the seatbelt.
The backward-forward adjustment of the
driver ’ s seat position is monitored by the
driver ’ s seat position sensor under the
driver ’ s seat.
Whether or not the driver is wearing the
seatbelt is monitored by the seatbelt buck-
le switch.
Observe the following precautions. Failure
to do so may cause the seatbelt buckle
switch and/or the seat position sensor to
malfunction, preventing the Subaru ad-
vanced frontal airbag system from func-
tioning correctly or causing the system to
fail.
Do not place articles/metal objects or in-
stall any accessory other than a genuine
SUBARU accessory under the driver ’ s
seat. Do not allow the rear seat occupant
to kick the driver ’ s seat or push up its bot-
tom surface with his/her feet.
Do not place a magnet near the seatbelt
buckle or under the driver ’ s seat.
If the seatbelt buckle switch and/or the
driver ’ s seat position sensor have failed,
the SRS airbag system warning light will il-
luminate. Although the driver ’ s SRS fron-
tal airbag can deploy regardless of the
backward-forward adjustment of the driv-
er ’ s seat position even when the warning
light is on, have the system inspected by
your SUBARU dealer immediately if the
SRS airbag system warning light comes
on.
NOTE
The driver ’ s SRS side airbag and seat-
belt pretensioner are not controlled by
the Subaru advanced frontal airbag
system.
Front passenger ’ s SRS frontal air-
bag
The front passenger ’ s SRS frontal airbag
uses a dual stage inflator. The inflator op-
erates in different ways depending on the
severity of impact.
The total load on the seat is monitored by
the occupant detection system ’ s weight
sensor located under the seat.
The system has another sensor that mon-
itors the tension of the front passenger
seatbelt. Using the total seat load and
seatbelt tension data from the sensors,
the occupant detection system deter-
mines whether the front passenger ’ s SRS
frontal airbag should or should not be in-
flated.
The occupant detection system may not
inflate the front passenger ’ s SRS frontal
airbag even when the driver ’ s SRS frontal
airbag deploys. This is normal.
Observe the following precautions. Failure
to do so may prevent the Subaru ad-
vanced frontal airbag system from func-
tioning correctly or cause the system to
fail.
Do not attach accessories to the
windshield, or fit an extra-wide mir-
ror over the rear view mirror. If the
SRS airbag deploys, those objects
could become projectiles that could
seriously injure vehicle occupants.
