Warning and indicator lights
Warning and indicator lights Several of the warning and indicator lights come on momentarily and then go out when the ignition switch is initially turned to the “ON” position. This permits checking the operation of the bulbs. Apply the parking brake and turn the ignition switch to the “ON” position. The following lights come on:
Seatbelt warning light SRS airbag system warning light CHECK ENGINE warning light / Malfunction indica- tor lamp Charge warning light Oil pressure warning light AT OIL temperature warning light (AT vehicles) ABS warning light Brake system warning light All-Wheel Drive warning light (AT vehicles)
If any lights fail to come on, it indicates a burned-out bulb or a malfunction of the corresponding system. Consult your authorized SUBARU dealer for repair.

If this light comes on steadily or blinks while the engine is running, it may indicate that there is a problem or po- tential problem somewhere in the emission control system. (cid:84) If the light comes on steadily: If the light comes on steadily while driving or does not go out after the engine starts, an emission control sys- tem malfunction has been detected.

If the wiper blades are 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) 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.

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 sur- face turns bright if the transmission is shifted into re- verse. This is to ensure good rearward visibility during reversing. (cid:86) Photosensors
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 similar items. Periodically wipe the sensors clean using a piece of dry soft cotton cloth or an applicator. (cid:86) Compass calibration 1. For optimum calibration, switch off all nonessential electrical accessories (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 metal- lic 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 re- lease, 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 (approximately two or three circles). The compass is now calibrated. 5. Further calibration may be necessary should out- side influences cause the mirror to read inaccurately. You will know that this has occurred 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.

UB4037BA
Always keep the front ventilator inlet grille free of snow, leaves, or other obstructions to ensure efficient heating and defrosting.

(cid:84) Air conditioner compressor shut-off when en-
gine is heavily loaded
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.

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. (cid:84) Lubrication oil circulation in the refrigerant cir-
cuit
Operate the air conditioner compressor at a low en- gine speed (at idle or low driving speeds) a few min- utes each month during the off-season to circulate its oil. (cid:84) Checking air conditioning system before sum-
mer 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. (cid:84) Cooling and dehumidifying in high humidity
and low temperature weather condition
Under certain weather conditions (high relative humid- ity, low temperatures, 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.
4-12
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 in the following. This schedule should be followed to maintain the filter’s dust collection ability. Under ex- tremely 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) whichev- er comes first
NOTE The filter can influence the air conditioning, heat- ing and defroster performance if not properly maintained.

When working on the cargo bed, be careful not to get poked in the eye by the roof antenna.
NOTE (cid:121) Detach the roof antenna before putting the vehi- cle in a garage and before washing it in an auto- matic car wash. (cid:121) After detaching the roof antenna, keep the mounting hole free of dirt and dust. If any dirt or dust sticks to the hole, remove it before attaching the roof antenna. (cid:121) When detaching the roof antenna, grasp and turn the roof antenna at the base. (cid:121) To avoid damaging the roof antenna, be careful not to overtighten it when attaching it. (cid:121) Radio reception is not possible with the roof an- tenna folded down. Also, reception deteriorates if metallic objects are placed near the roof antenna.

(cid:132) FM reception Although FM is normally static free, reception can be affected by the surrounding area, atmospheric condi- tions, station strength and transmitter distance.
