*SRS airbag (Supplemental Restraint System airbag)

Subaru Forester / Subaru Forester 2012-2026 Owners Manual / Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags / *SRS airbag (Supplemental Restraint System airbag)

*SRS: This stands for supplemental restraint system. This name is used because the airbag system supplements the vehicle’s seatbelts.

Your vehicle is equipped with a supplemental restraint system in addition to a lap/shoulder belt at each front seating position and each rear window-side seating positions. The supplemental restraint system (SRS) consists of seven airbags.

The configurations are as follows.

● Driver’s and front passenger’s frontal airbags
● Driver’s and front passenger’s side airbags
● Curtain airbags (for driver, front passenger, and window-side rear passengers) ● Knee airbag for driver

These SRS airbags are designed only as a supplement to the primary protection provided by the seatbelt.

The system also controls front seatbelt pretensioners. For operation instructions and precautions concerning the seatbelt pretensioner, refer to “Front seatbelt pretensioners” .
