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.

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.
