(cid:121) Do not operate the wipers when the wind- shield 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.

tempting 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 oper- ate the defroster, wiper deicer (if equipped) or rear window defogger before turning on the wiper. (cid:121) If the wipers stop during operation because of ice or some other 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 operation. (cid:121) 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 flu- id” section in chapter 11.) Also, when driving the vehicle when there are freezing temperatures, use non-freezing type wiper blades. (cid:121) 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 (cid:121) The wiper operates only when the ignition switch is in the “ON” or “ACC” position. (cid:121) Clean your wiper blades and window glass peri- odically with a washer solution to prevent streak- ing, 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 windshield or rear window. (cid:121) Grease, wax, insects or other material on the windshield or the wiper blades results in jerky wip- er operation and streaking on the glass. If you can- not remove those streaks after operating the washer or if the wiper operation is jerky, clean the outer surface of the windshield or rear window and the wiper blades using a sponge or soft cloth with a neutral detergent or mild-abrasive cleaner. After cleaning, rinse the window glass and wiper blades with clean water. The glass is clean if no beads form on the glass when you rinse with wa- ter. (cid:121) If you cannot eliminate the streaking even after following this procedure, replace the wiper blades with new ones. Refer to the “Replacement of wind-


shield wiper blades” section (chapter 11) for re- placement instructions.

To improve acceleration and gas mileage, the air con- ditioner compressor is designed to temporarily shut off during air conditioner operation whenever the acceler- ator is fully depressed such as during rapid accelera- tion or when driving on a steep upgrade. (cid:84) Refrigerant for your climate control system Your air conditioner uses ozone friendly refrigerant HFC134a. Therefore, 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 el- ement 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:

The accessory power outlet is located at the rear of the center console. Electrical power (12V DC) from the battery is available at the socket when the ignition switch is either in the “ACC” or “ON” position. You can use an in-car use electrical appliance by con- necting it to the accessory power outlet.


(cid:121) Do not attempt to use a cigarette lighter in the accessory power outlet.


(cid:121) Do not place any foreign objects, especially metal ones such as coins or aluminum foil, into the accessory power outlet. That could cause a short circuit. Always put the cap on the acces- sory power outlet when it is not in use. (cid:121) Use only electrical appliances which are de- signed for 12V DC and which consume less than 120W. Overloading the accessory power outlet can cause a short circuit. Do not use dou- ble adapters or more than one electrical appli- ance. (cid:121) If the plug on your electric appliance is either too loose or too tight for the accessory power outlet, this can result in a poor contact or cause the plug to get stuck. Only use plugs that fit properly. (cid:121) Use of an electric appliance in the accessory power outlet for a long period of time while the engine is not running can cause battery dis- charge. (cid:121) Do not raise the rear seat cushion while an electric appliance is plugged into the accessory power outlet.

Cigarette lighter socket


(cid:121) The electrical power socket located on the lower part of the instrument panel is originally designed to use a genuine SUBARU cigarette lighter plug. Do not use non-genuine cigarette lighter plugs in the socket. Doing so may cause a short-circuit and overheating, resulting in a fire. (cid:121) If the socket is ever used for a plug-in acces- sory such as a mobile phone, they may damage the portion of the socket’s internal mechanism that causes a cigarette lighter plug to “pop out” after its lighter element is heated. Therefore, do not place a cigarette lighter plug in a socket that has been used, even once, to power a plug- in accessory. Doing so may cause the plug to stick and overheat, creating a potential fire haz- ard. (cid:121) Do not place any foreign objects, especially metal ones such as coins or aluminum foil, into the socket. That could cause a short circuit.
