make it more comfortable to ride in. Plus,

New Auto-dimming Mirrors with Approach Light

Make it easier—and safer—to come and go with the new accessory Exterior

Auto-dimming Mirrors with Approach Light1

When the doors are opened or unlocked with the key fob, L.E.D. lights on the

side-view mirrors will help light the way, casting light on all four doors and the

ground near the vehicle.

They can also help reduce headlight glare in trafﬁc. When the Interior Auto-dimming

Rearview Mirror detects excessive light from the rear of the vehicle, the side-view

mirrors automatically dim, helping to keep the light out of your eyes. The brighter the

light, the dimmer the mirrors and the better you’ll be able to see.

1 Exterior Auto-dimming Mirrors with Approach Light are accessory equipment. Requires Interior Auto-dimming Rearview Mirror accessory.

Scan this page to watch how EyeSight®works in the real world.

A driver ahead unexpectedly hits the brakes

or cuts you off. EyeSight®1 warns you, applies

brakes to help avoid, and at lower speeds can

even help you stop your Subaru.

You accidentally drift to the edge of your lane and

begin to cross into another. EyeSight®watches

for lane markers and chimes to warn you before

you leave yours.

Pre-Collision Braking Lane Departure and Sway Warning

Forester 2.5i Touring in Marine Blue Pearl with optional equipment.

1 EyeSight is a driver-assist system which may not operate optimally under all driving conditions. The driver is always responsible for safe and attentive driving. System effectiveness depends on many factors

such as vehicle maintenance, weather and road conditions. See Owner’s Manual for complete details on system operations and limitations.

Trafﬁc doesn’t always ﬂow, so EyeSight®doesn’t

only keep a set speed. The system looks ahead

and helps automatically adjust to keep your

distance, even in stop and go highway traffic.

Adaptive Cruise Control

You put the car in Drive instead of Reverse.

EyeSight®cuts power when it sees an object in

your path to help you avoid accelerating into it.
