Subaru Forester: System operation / Engine restart non-operational conditions
To ensure safety, the engine will not be
automatically restarted if the engine hood
is opened when the Auto Start Stop
system is in operation, even if the brake
pedal is released. In this case, check the
surrounding area and restart the engine by
normal operation.
Also, when the Auto Vehicle Hold operation
indicator light is illuminated, the
engine will not restart.
NOTE
- When the Auto Start Stop system is
in operation, the brake pedal may feel
stiff. However, this is not a malfunction.
- In the following conditions, the engine
will be automatically restarted
even if you keep the brake pedal
depressed.
- When the battery is discharged.
- When the negative pressure in
the brake booster has lowered.
- In the following cases, the length of
time that the engine is temporarily
stopped by the Auto Start Stop system
may be shorter.
- When the climate control system
is in operation.
- When the outside temperature is
high, or when it is low (because the
climate control system can no longer
maintain the set temperature).
- When consumption of electricity
by electrical components is high.
- When the engine is automatically
restarted by the Auto Start Stop system,
the power provided via the accessory
power outlet will be reduced.
