Subaru Forester: Connecting a trailer / Side mirrors

After hitching a trailer to your vehicle,
check that the standard side mirrors
provide a good rearward field of view
without significant blind spots. If significant
blind spots occur with the vehicle’s standard
side mirrors, use towing mirrors that
conform with Federal, state/province and/
or other applicable regulations.
CAUTION
Direct splicing or other improper
connection of trailer lights may
damage your vehicle’s electrical
system and cause a malfunction of
your vehicle’s lighting system...
Other information:
Perform either of the following procedures.
Briefly press a button (for less than 2
seconds) on the access key fob/remote
transmitter.
Carry the access key fob and perform
either of the following procedures (models
with “keyless access with push-button
start system”)...
To lower the armrest, pull down the top
edge of the armrest.
WARNING
To avoid serious injury, passengers
must never sit on the center
armrest.
When using the seatbelt, do not
allow it to become tangled with
an arm rest. The seatbelt will not
perform its original function in an
emergency and it may cause a
serious injury...
