Subaru Ascent 2018-2026 Owner's Manual: Steering Responsive Headlight (SRH)
Steering Responsive Headlight (SRH)
- The target area of illumination when SRH is activated
- The target area of illumination when SRH is not activated
The Steering Responsive Headlight (SRH) system in the Subaru Ascent automatically adjusts the direction of the headlight beams based on steering input and vehicle speed. This advanced functionality improves nighttime visibility by illuminating the intended path of travel, particularly when navigating curves, intersections, or winding roads.
Drivers of the Subaru Ascent can enable or disable the SRH system through the center information display, allowing full control over this adaptive lighting feature. Refer to "Car settings" for configuration details.
- Steering Responsive Headlight OFF indicator light
When the SRH function is turned off, the corresponding indicator light will illuminate on the Subaru Ascent combination meter, clearly indicating that the system is inactive.
- Steering Responsive Headlight warning light
If a malfunction occurs within the SRH system, the warning light will illuminate on the Subaru Ascent display, and a notification will appear when the ignition is in the "ON" position. This indicates that the system has been deactivated and requires inspection by an authorized SUBARU dealer.
NOTE
- The SRH system status (enabled or disabled) in the Subaru Ascent remains unchanged even after the engine is turned off and restarted.
- When the ignition is switched to "ON", the SRH OFF indicator light will briefly illuminate and then turn off after a few seconds as part of a system check.
- The SRH function operates only when the Subaru Ascent is moving forward at speeds of approximately 5 mph (8 km/h) or higher.
