Subaru Forester: Interior equipment / Overhead console

To open the console, push on the lid lightly
and it will automatically open.
CAUTION
When your vehicle is parked in the
sun or on a warm day, the inside of
the overhead console heats up.
Avoid storing plastic or other heatvulnerable
or flammable articles
such as a lighter in the overhead
console.
CAUTION
Always keep the storage compartment
closed while driving to
reduce the risk of injury in the
event of a sudden stop or an
accident.
Do not store spray cans, containers
with flammable or corrosive
liquids or any other dangerous
items in the storage compartment...
Other information:
You can initialize the items that have been
set to your preference.
Select “Initialize” from the 2nd menu on
the setting screen. Refer to “Setting
screen”.
Select “Yes” or “No” by using the
control switches.
NOTE
You cannot initialize the items if the
Driver Monitoring System is not operated...
WARNING
Never turn the ignition switch to
the “LOCK” position while the
vehicle is being driven or towed
because that will lock the steering
wheel, preventing steering
control. And when the engine is
turned off, it takes a much greater
effort than usual to steer...
