Know what kind of control to look for.
This original category diagram is an orientation aid, not a picture of your exact trim. Use the written labels and your vehicle manual to identify the real control.
Step by step.
- 01
Close the driver's door, fasten the driver's seat belt, and keep the selector out of P.
- 02
Select Auto Vehicle Hold on the Center Information Display home screen.
- 03
Confirm the AVH indicator illuminates in the Combination Meter Display.
- 04
Bring the Crosstrek to a complete stop with the brake; the AVH indicator flashes while the vehicle is held.
- 05
Press the accelerator or brake pedal to release the hold, or select the AVH button again to switch the feature off.
Important limits
- The driver's door must be closed and the driver's seat belt fastened.
- Turn AVH off before entering an automatic car wash.
- AVH is a temporary stop aid and does not replace P and the parking brake when parking.
Quick checks.
- ✓If AVH will not arm, check the door, seat belt, and selector conditions.
- ✓If the indicator stays illuminated rather than flashing, press the brake until the vehicle is fully stopped.
- ✓If a system warning appears, hold the vehicle with the brake pedal and stop using AVH until the warning is resolved.
