It blinks when the skid suppression function is activated. It illuminates when only the traction control function is operating. The Vehicle Dynamics Control system is This warning light has both the function of indicating faults in the Vehicle Dynamics Control system and the function of indicating that the Vehicle Dynamics Control system has been deactivated. It comes on in the event of a fault in the system and is on when the system is not operating. This warning light comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position and goes out after the engine has started. It indicates that the Vehicle Dynamics Control system is in normal operation. ! Vehicle Dynamics Control warning light The Vehicle Dynamics Control system is probably inoperative under any of the following conditions. Have your vehicle checked at a SUBARU dealer immediately. . The warning light does not come on when the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position. . The warning light comes on while the vehicle is running. . If the electrical circuit of the Vehicle Dynamics Control system itself becomes faulty, the warning light only comes on. At this time, the ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) remains fully operational. . The warning light comes on when the electronic control system of the ABS/ Vehicle Dynamics Control system becomes faulty. The Vehicle Dynamics Control system provides its ABS control through the electrical circuit of the ABS system. Accordingly, if the ABS is inoperative, the Vehicle Dynamics Control system becomes unable to provide ABS control. As a result, the Vehicle Dynamics Control system also becomes inoperative, causing the warning light to come on. Though both the Vehicle Dynamics Control and

Instruments and controls
engine has started.
This light comes on when All-Wheel Drive
is disengaged and the drive mechanism is
switched to Front Wheel Drive for main-
tenance or similar purposes.
It flashes if the vehicle is driven with tires
of differing diameters fitted on the wheels
or with an excessively low air pressure in
any of the tires.
CAUTION
Continuing to drive with the AWD
warning light flashing can damage
the powertrain. If the AWD warning
light starts to flash, promptly park in
a safe place and check whether the
tires have differing diameters and
whether
any
of
the
tires
has
an
excessively low inflation pressure.

Vehicle Dynamics
Control operation indi-
cator light (if equipped)
This light comes on when the ignition
switch is ON and goes out approximately
2 seconds later.
It blinks when the skid suppression func-
tion is activated. It illuminates when only
the traction control function is operating.
The Vehicle Dynamics Control system is
probably faulty under any of the following
conditions. Have your vehicle checked at
a SUBARU dealer immediately.
.
The light does not come on when the
ignition
switch
is
turned
to
the
ON
position.
.
The light does not go out even after a
period of approximately 2 seconds after
the ignition switch has been turned to the
ON
position.
&
Vehicle Dynamics
Control warning light (if
equipped)/Vehicle Dy-
namics Control OFF in-
dicator light (if
equipped)
This warning light has both the function of
indicating faults in the Vehicle Dynamics
Control system and the function of indicat-
ing
that
the
Vehicle
Dynamics
Control
system has been deactivated.
It comes on in the event of a fault in the
system and is on when the system is not
operating.
This warning light comes on when the
ignition
switch
is
turned
to
the
ON
position and goes out after the engine
has started. It indicates that the Vehicle
Dynamics Control
system is in
normal
operation.
!
Vehicle Dynamics Control warning
light
The Vehicle Dynamics Control system is
probably
inoperative
under
any
of
the
following conditions. Have your vehicle
checked at a SUBARU dealer immedi-
ately.
.
The warning light does not come on
when the ignition switch is turned to the
ON
position.
.
The warning light comes on while the
vehicle is running.
.
If the electrical circuit of the Vehicle
Dynamics Control system itself becomes
faulty, the warning light only comes on. At
this time, the ABS (Anti-lock Brake Sys-
tem) remains fully operational.
.
The warning light comes on when the
electronic
control
system
of
the
ABS/
Vehicle
Dynamics
Control
system
be-
comes faulty.
The
Vehicle
Dynamics
Control
system
provides
its
ABS
control
through
the
electrical
circuit
of
the
ABS
system.
Accordingly, if the ABS is inoperative, the
Vehicle
Dynamics
Control
system
be-
comes unable to provide ABS control. As
a result, the Vehicle Dynamics Control
system also becomes inoperative, caus-
ing the warning light to come on. Though
both the Vehicle Dynamics Control and
