  2. Shift the select lever to "P" range.
  3. Fully apply the parking brake.
  4. Lift up the vehicle.
    CAUTION: While working, be sure to keep the lower edge of the tires 30 cm or more above the ground as vehicle will vibrate.
  5. Connect the Subaru Select Monitor to data link connector.
  6. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
  7. Turn off all switches causing an electrical load, such as headlights, A/C, seat heater and rear defogger.
  8. On vehicles equipped with an ECO switch, turn the ECO switch to ON. On vehicles equipped with an SPORT mode, turn the SPORT mode to OFF. On vehicles equipped with an POWER/HOLD switch, turn the POWER/HOLD switch to OFF. On vehicles equipped with SI-DRIVE, set to I mode.
    NOTE: Error message is not displayed even when an incorrect mode is set. While the operation is continued, "AT learning promoting" is displayed, but it cannot end normally. If the message does not change after 2 minutes have passed, retry "AT learning mode" from the beginning.
