Subaru Forester: Starting and operating / Auto Start Stop system
The Auto Start Stop system is designed to
automatically stop and restart the engine
when the vehicle is stationary for a short
period of time (while waiting for a traffic
light or in a traffic jam) after the engine has
warmed up. The system operates in order
to reduce fuel consumption, exhaust emissions
and undesired idling noise.
CAUTION
The Auto Start Stop system is designed
to automatically stop and
restart the engine for a short period
of time during idling. Do not use the
system when parking the vehicle
normally...
Other information:
New transmitters can be programmed to
the remote engine start system in the
event that a transmitter is lost, stolen,
damaged or additional transmitters are
desired (the system will accept up to eight
transmitters). New remote engine start
transmitters can be programmed according
to the following procedure...
While the light control switch is in the
“AUTO” position, the headlights will automatically
turn on when the windshield
wipers operate several times. The headlights
will automatically turn off when the
wipers stop.
NOTE
The ON/OFF setting of this function can
be changed by a SUBARU dealer...
