BAJA U.S.A..A2310BE–A


Instruments and controls


D Do not operate the wipers when the windshield or rear window is dry. This may scratch the glass, damage the wiper blades and cause the wiper motor to burn out. Before operating the wiper on a dry windshield or rear window, always use the windshield washer. D In freezing weather, be sure that the wiper blades are not fro- zen to the windshield or rear window before switching on the wipers. Attempting to operate the wiper with the blades frozen to the window glass could cause not only the wiper blades to be damaged but also the wiper motor to burn out. If the wiper blade is frozen to the window glass, be sure to operate the defroster, wiper deicer (if equipped) or rear window defogger before turning on the wiper. D If the wipers stop during operation because of ice or some oth- er obstruction on the window, the wiper motor could burn out even if the wiper switch is turned off. If this occurs, promptly stop the vehicle in a safe place, turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position and clean the window glass to allow proper wiper opera- tion. D Use clean water if windshield washer fluid is unavailable. In areas where water freezes in winter, use SUBARU Windshield Washer Fluid or the equivalent. (See “Windshield washer fluid” section in chapter 11.) Also, when driving the vehicle when there are freezing tempera- tures, use non-freezing type wiper blades. D Do not clean the wiper blades with gasoline or a solvent, such as paint thinner or benzene. This will cause deterioration of the wiper blades.


NOTE D The wiper operates only when the ignition switch is in the “ON” or “ACC” position. D Clean your wiper blades and window glass periodically with a washer solution to prevent streaking, and to remove accumulations of road salt or road film. Keep the washer button depressed at least for 1 second so that washer solution will be sprinkled all over the

D By pressing and releasing the right button, the compass display is toggled on or off. When the compass is on, an illuminated compass reading will appear in the lower part of the mirror.


Even with the mirror in anti-glare mode, the mirror surface turns bright if the transmission is shifted into reverse. This is to ensure good rear- ward visibility during reversing.


n Photosensors


HB6020BA


The mirror has a photosensor attached on both the front and back sides. If the glare from the headlights of vehicles behind you strikes the mirror, these sensors detect it and make the reflection surface of the mirror dimmer to help prevent you from being blinded. For this reason, use care not to cover the sensors with stickers, or other simi- lar items. Periodically wipe the sensors clean using a piece of dry soft cotton cloth or an applicator.


n Compass calibration 1. For optimum calibration, switch off all nonessential electrical ac- cessories (rear window defogger, heater/air conditioning system, spotlight, etc.) and ensure all doors are shut. 2. Drive to an open, level area away from large metallic objects or

structures and make certain the ignition switch is in the “ON” position. 3. Press and hold the left button for 3 seconds then release, and the compass will enter the calibration mode. “CAL” and direction will be displayed. 4. Drive slowly in a circle until “CAL” disappears from the display (about two or three circles). The compass is now calibrated. 5. Further calibration may be necessary should outside influences cause the mirror to read inaccurately. You will know that this has oc- curred if your compass begins to read in only limited directions. Should you encounter this situation, return to step one of the above procedure and recalibrate the mirror.


n Compass zone adjustment 1. The zone setting is factory preset to Zone 8. Refer to the “Com- pass calibration zone” map at the end of this manual to verify that the compass zone setting is correct for your geographical location. 2. Press and hold the right button for 3 seconds then release, and the word “ZONE” will briefly appear and then the zone number will be dis- played. 3. Press the right hand button repeatedly to cycle the display through all possible zone settings. Stop cycling when the correct zone setting for your location is displayed. 4. Releasing the button for 3 seconds will exit the zone setting mode.

Operating tips for heater and air conditioner


B Cleaning ventilator grille


HBF046BA


Always keep the front ventilator inlet grille free of snow, leaves, or oth- er obstructions to ensure efficient heating and defrosting. Since the condenser is located in front of the radiator, this area should be kept clean because cooling performance is impaired by any accumulation of insects and leaves on the condenser.


B Efficient cooling after parking in direct sunlight After parking in direct sunlight, drive with the windows open for a few minutes to allow outside air to circulate into the heated interior. This results in quicker cooling by the air conditioner. Keep the windows closed during the operation of the air conditioner for maximum cool- ing efficiency.


B Lubrication oil circulation in the refrigerant circuit Operate the air conditioner compressor at a low engine speed (at idle or low driving speeds) a few minutes each month during the off-sea- son to circulate its oil.


B Checking air conditioning system before summer season Check the air conditioner unit for refrigerant leaks, hose conditions, and proper operation each spring. This check is best performed by your SUBARU dealer.

Climate control


B Cooling and dehumidifying in high humidity and low tempera-


ture weather condition


Under certain weather conditions (high relative humidity, low tempera- tures, etc.) a small amount of water vapor emission from the air outlets may be noticed. This condition is normal and does not indicate any problem with the air conditioning system.


B Air conditioner compressor shut-off when engine is heavily


loaded


To improve acceleration and gas mileage, the air conditioner com- pressor is designed to temporarily shut off during air conditioner op- eration whenever the accelerator is fully depressed such as during rapid acceleration or when driving on a steep upgrade.


B Refrigerant for your climate control system Your air conditioner uses ozone friendly refrigerant HFC134a. There- fore, the method of adding, changing or checking the refrigerant is different from the method for CFC12 (freon). Consult your SUBARU dealer for service. Repairs needed as a result of using the wrong refrigerant are not covered under warranty.


Air filtration system (if equipped)


If your vehicle’s air conditioning system is equipped with a optional air filtration system, replace the filter element according to the replacement schedule shown below. This schedule should be followed to maintain the filter’s dust collection ability. Under extremely dusty conditions, the filter should be replaced more frequently. Have your filter checked or replaced by your SUBARU dealer.


Replacement schedule:


Every 12 months or 9,300 miles (15,000 km) whichever comes first


NOTE The filter can influence the air conditioning, heating and defroster performance if not properly maintained.

Precautions to observe when handling a compact disc (CD)


Use only compact discs (CDs) that have the mark shown below. CD- RWs cannot be used. Also, some CD-Rs cannot be played.


HB5062AA


D In cold and/or rainy weather, dew can form inside the CD player, pre- venting normal operation. If this happens, eject the CD and wait for the player to dry out. D Skipping may occur when the CD player is subjected to severe vibra- tion (for example, when the vehicle is driven on a rough surface). D To remove a disc from the case, press the center of the case and hold both edges of the disc. If the disc surface is touched directly, contamina- tion could cause poor tone quality. Do not touch the disc surface. D Use a clean disc whenever possible. If there are deposits, wipe the disc surface from the center outward with a dry, soft cloth. Be sure not to use a hard cloth, thinner, benzene, alcohol, etc. D Do not use any disc that is scratched, deformed, or cracked. Also, do not use any disc that has a non-standard shape (for example, a heart shape). Malfunctions or problems might result. D A disc is vulnerable to heat. Never keep it either in places exposed to direct sunlight, near heaters or in vehicles parked in the sun or hot days.
