Subaru Forester: P (Park) / R (Reverse) / N (Neutral) / D (Drive) / / R (Reverse)
This position is for backing the vehicle. To
shift from the “N” to “R” position, stop the
vehicle completely then move the lever to
the “R” position while pressing the select
lever button in.
When the ignition switch has been turned
to the “ACC” position, the movement of the
select lever from the “N” to “R” position is
only possible by depressing the brake
pedal. For details, refer to “Shift lock
function”.
This position is for restarting a stalled
engine. In this position, the transmission is

Other information:
The following seatbelts have a seatbelt
pretensioner.
Driver’s seatbelt
Front passenger’s seatbelt
Rear passenger’s seatbelt (windowside)
The seatbelt pretensioners are designed
to be activated in the event of an accident

The disc brakes have audible wear indicators
on the brake pads. If the brake
pads wear close to their service limit, the
wear indicator makes a very audible
scraping noise when the brake pedal is
applied.
If you hear this scraping noise each time
you apply the brake pedal, have the brake
pads serviced by your SUBARU dealer as
soon as possible...
