Safety precautions when driving
SEAT BELT AND SRS AIRBAG
WARNING
DAll persons in the vehicle should fasten their seat belts BE-
FORE the vehicle starts to move. Otherwise, the possibility of se-
rious injury becomes greater in the event of a sudden stop or ac-
cident.
DTo obtain maximum protection in the event of an accident, the
driver and all passengers in the vehicle should always wear seat
belts when the vehicle is moving. The SRS (Supplemental
Restraint System) airbag does not do away with the need to fas-
ten seat belts. In combination with the seat belts, it offers the
best combined protection in case of a serious accident.
Not wearing a seat belt increases the chance of severe injury or
death in a crash even when the car has the SRS airbag.
DThe SRS airbags deploy with considerable speed and force.
Occupants who are out of proper position when the SRS airbag

–CONTINUED –
deploys could suffer very serious injuries. Because the SRS air-
bag needs enough space for deployment, the driver should al-
ways sit upright and well back in the seat as far from the steering
wheel as practical while still maintaining full vehicle control and
the front passenger should move the seat as far back as possible
and sit upright and well back in the seat.
Carefully read the sections “Seat belts and SRS airbag”in chapter 2 of
this owner’s manual for instructions and precautions concerning the seat
belt system and SRS airbag system.
CHILD SAFETY
WARNING
DNever hold a child on your lap or in your arms while the ve-
hicle is moving. The passenger cannot protect the child from in-
jury in a collision, because the child will be caught between the
passenger and objects inside the vehicle.
DWhile riding in the vehicle, infants and small children should
always be placed in the REAR seat in an infant or child restraint
system which is appropriate for the child’s age, height and
weight. If a child is too big for a child restraint system, the child
should sit in the REAR seat and be restrained using the seat
belts. According to accident statistics, children are safer when
properly restrained in the rear seating positions than in the front
seating positions. Never allow a child to stand up or kneel on the
seat.
DPut children aged 12 and under in the REAR seat properly re-
strained at all times in a child restraint device or in a seat belt.
The SRS airbag deploys with considerable speed and force and
can injure or even kill children, especially if they are 12 years of
age and under and are not restrained or improperly restrained.
Because children are lighter and weaker than adults, their risk be-
ing injured from deployment is greater.
DNEVER INSTALL A REARWARD FACING CHILD SEAT IN THE
FRONT SEAT. DOING SO RISKS SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO
IMPREZA U.S.A. (E) A1820BE– A
vi
THE CHILD BY PLACING THE CHILD’S HEAD TOO CLOSE TO
THE SRS AIRBAG.
DAlways use the child safety locks whenever a child rides in the
rear seat. Serious injury could result if a child accidentally
opened the door and fell out. Refer to the “Door locks”section in
chapter 1.
DAlways lock the passenger’s windows using the lock switch
when children are riding in the vehicle. Failure to follow this pro-
cedure could result in injury to a child operating the power win-
dow. Refer to the “Power windows”section in chapter 1.
DNever leave unattended children in the vehicle. They could ac-
cidentally injure themselves or others through inadvertent opera-
tion of the vehicle. Also, on hot or sunny days, temperature in a
closed vehicle could quickly become high enough to cause se-
vere or possibly fatal injuries to them.
Carefully read the sections “Child restraint systems”, “SRS airbag”and
“Seat belts”in chapter 2 of this owner’s manual for instructions and pre-
cautions concerning the child restraint system, seat belt system and SRS
airbag system.
ENGINE EXHAUST GAS (CARBON MONOXIDE)
WARNING
DNever inhale engine exhaust gas. Engine exhaust gas contains
carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas which is danger-
ous, or even lethal, if inhaled.
DAlways properly maintain the engine exhaust system to pre-
vent engine exhaust gas from entering the vehicle.
DNever run the engine in a closed space, such as a garage, ex-
cept for the brief time needed to drive the vehicle in or out of it.
DAvoid remaining in a parked vehicle for a lengthy time while
the engine is running. If that is unavoidable, then use the ventila-
tion fan to force fresh air into the vehicle.
DAlways keep the front ventilator inlet grille free from snow,
leaves or other obstructions to ensure that the ventilation system
always works properly.
IMPREZA U.S.A. (E) A1820BE– A

–CONTINUED –
DIf at any time you suspect that exhaust fumes are entering the
vehicle, have the problem checked and corrected as soon as pos-
sible. If you must drive under these conditions, drive only with all
windows fully open.
DKeep the trunk lid or rear gate closed while driving to prevent
exhaust gas from entering the vehicle.
DRINKING AND DRIVING
WARNING
Drinking and then driving is very dangerous. Alcohol in the
bloodstream delays your reaction and impairs your perception,
judgment and attentiveness. If you drive after drinking –even if
you drink just a little –it will increase the risk of being involved in
a serious or fatal accident, injuring or killing yourself, your pas-
sengers and others. In addition, if you are injured in the accident,
alcohol may increase the severity of that injury.
Please don’t drink and drive.
Drunken driving is one of the most frequent causes of accidents. Since
alcohol affects all people differently, you may have consumed too much
alcohol to drive safely even if the level of alcohol in your blood is below
the legal limit. The safest thing you can do is never drink and drive. How-
ever if you have no choice but to drive, stop drinking and sober up com-
pletely before getting behind the wheel.
DRUGS AND DRIVING
WARNING
There are some drugs (over the counter and prescription) that
can delay your reaction time and impair your perception, judg-
ment and attentiveness. If you drive after taking them, it may in-
crease your, your passengers’and other persons’risk of being
involved in a serious or fatal accident.
