Turn signal lever

Operating instructions

Subaru Solterra turn signal lever controls showing right left turn and lane change operation

The turn signal lever in the Subaru Solterra is designed for precise, intuitive operation, allowing the driver to clearly communicate intended maneuvers to other road users. Proper use of this control enhances safety and ensures predictable driving behavior in all traffic conditions.

  1. Right turn — Push the lever upward to activate the right turn indicators on the Subaru Solterra.
  2. Lane change to the right (move the lever partway and release it)
    The Subaru Solterra will automatically flash the right turn signals three times, providing a convenient and efficient indication for lane changes without continuous input.
  3. Lane change to the left (move the lever partway and release it)
    Similarly, moving the lever slightly downward and releasing it will cause the left turn signals to flash three times, making lane transitions smoother and safer in the Subaru Solterra.
  4. Left turn — Push the lever downward fully to engage the left turn indicators.

Thanks to the refined electronic control system in the Subaru Solterra, the turn signal lever responds smoothly and consistently, offering a premium driving experience.

■ Turn signals can be operated when

The turn signals of the Subaru Solterra are functional when the power switch is set to ON, ensuring that all signaling systems are active during normal driving operation.

■ If the indicator flashes faster than usual

If you notice that the turn signal indicators in your Subaru Solterra are blinking more rapidly than normal, this may indicate that one of the front or rear signal bulbs is not functioning properly. Inspect the lighting system promptly and replace any faulty bulbs to maintain proper visibility and compliance with road safety regulations.

■ If the turn signals stop flashing before a lane change has been performed

If the automatic three-flash lane change signal in the Subaru Solterra stops before completing your maneuver, simply operate the turn signal lever again to reactivate the indicators and ensure that your intended movement is clearly communicated.

Consistent and correct use of the turn signal system in the Subaru Solterra not only improves personal driving safety but also enhances awareness for surrounding drivers, contributing to a more predictable and controlled driving environment.
