The following two situations could indicate a malfunction of the Vehicle Dynamics Control system. If either should occur, have an authorized SUBARU dealer carry out an inspection of that system at the first available opportunity.

● The indicator light does not illuminate when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position.

● The indicator light does not turn off approximately 2 seconds after the ignition switch has been turned to the ON position.
