malfunction of the Vehicle Dynamics
Control system; if any should occur, we
recommend that you have an authorized
SUBARU dealer carry out an inspection of
the system at the first available opportu-
nity.
.
The warning light does not turn on
when the ignition switch is turned to the
“
ON
”
position.
.
The warning light turns on while the
vehicle is being driven.
.
When a malfunction has occurred in
the Vehicle Dynamics Control electrical
system, only the warning light will turn on.
In such an event, the ABS will still be
operating normally.
.
The warning light will also turn on when
a problem occurs with the ABS or Vehicle
Dynamics Control electronic control sys-
tems.
Because the Vehicle Dynamics Control
system controls each brake through the
ABS, whenever the ABS stops operating
due to a malfunction in that electrical
system, the Vehicle Dynamics Control will
also become unable to control all four
brakes. Thus Vehicle Dynamics Control
system operation halts and the warning
light turns on. Although both the Vehicle
Dynamics Control system and the ABS
will be inoperable in this situation, it will
still be possible to stop the vehicle using
normal braking. The Vehicle Dynamics
Control system and the ABS do not
adversely affect operation of the vehicle
in any way when they are inoperable;
however should such a situation occur,
drive with care and we recommend that
you have an authorized SUBARU dealer
carry out an inspection of those systems
at the first available opportunity.
NOTE
When the warning light turns on and off
in the following way, it indicates that
the Vehicle Dynamics Control system
is operating normally.
.
Although turning on after the engine
has been started, the warning light
quickly turns off and stays off.
.
The warning light turns on when the
vehicle is being driven; it then turns off
and stays off.
!
Vehicle Dynamics Control OFF in-
dicator light
This light comes on to indicate that the
Vehicle Dynamics Control system is in
non-operation mode. This does not con-
stitute failure of the Vehicle Dynamics
Control system.
NOTE
.
The indicator light may stay on for a
while after the engine has been started,
especially in cold weather. This occurs
because the engine has not yet
warmed up and is completely normal.
The light will turn off when the engine
has reached a suitable operating tem-
perature.
.
When an engine problem occurs
and the malfunction indicator lamp
turns on, the indicator light will also
come on.
The following two situations could indicate
malfunction of the Vehicle Dynamics
Control system; if either should occur, we
recommend that you have an authorized
SUBARU dealer carry out an inspection of
that system at the first available opportu-
nity.
.
The indicator light does not turn on
when the ignition switch is turned to the
“
ON
”
position.
.
The indicator light fails to turn off after
the engine is started, even when several
minutes have passed to allow the engine
to heat up sufficiently.
