Stopping the engine
Subaru XV Crosstrek / Subaru XV Crosstrek 2011-2024 Owners Manual / Starting and operating / Stopping the engine
The ignition switch should be turned off only when the vehicle is stopped and the engine is idling.
WARNING
Do not stop the engine when the
vehicle is moving. This will cause
loss of power to the power steering
and the brake booster, making steering
and braking more difficult. It
could also result in accidental activation
of the “LOCK” position on the
ignition switch, causing the steering
wheel to lock.
