(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.

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 cell phone, they may damage the portion of the socket’s internal mechanism that causes a cigarette lighter plug to “pop out” af- ter 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.

Do not hold the lighter pushed in, because it will overheat.


UB6011BA


The electrical power socket located on the lower part of the instrument panel can be used as cigarette light- er socket. A cigarette lighter plug is an optional acces- sory. It is available from your SUBARU dealer. The cigarette lighter socket may also be used as a power source for an in-car use electrical appliance.

UB6011DA


The cigarette lighter operates only when the ignition switch is in the “ON” and “ACC” positions. To use the cigarette lighter, push in the knob and wait a few moments. It will automatically spring up when ready for use.


(cid:132) Using as an accessory power outlet Electrical power (12V DC) from the battery is available at the socket when the ignition switch is either in the “ACC” or “ON” position. If you use the socket as an accessory power outlet, take the following precautions. When the socket is not in use, always put the cap on the socket to prevent any foreign object from entering it.


(cid:121) Use only in-car use electrical appliances which are designed for 12V DC and which con- sume less than 120W. Overloading the socket can cause a short circuit. Do not use double adapters or more than one electrical appliance. (cid:121) If the plug on your electric appliance is either too loose or too tight for the socket, this can re- sult 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 socket for a long period of time while the engine is not running can cause battery discharge. (cid:121) Before driving your vehicle, make sure that the plug and the cord on your electrical appli- ance will not interfere with your shifting gears

and operating the accelerator and brake pedals. If they do, do not use the electrical appliance while driving.


If the socket has been used for electrical appliances, damage may have been done to the internal mecha- nism that cause a cigarette lighter to “pop-out” after its element has been heated. For that reason, a cigarette lighter, even if it is a genuine part, should not be used in the socket. If you want to use the socket for a ciga- rette lighter again, or to protect your purchaser before you sell your vehicle, have your SUBARU dealer re- place the socket with a new one.

1) Crossbar kit


The roof rail is not designed to carry cargo by itself. Cargo can be carried after securing the roof crossbar kit to the roof rail and installing the appropriate carry- ing attachment. When installing the roof crossbar kit, follow the manufacturer’s instructions. When you carry cargo on the roof using the roof cross- bar kit and a carrying attachment, never exceed the maximum load limit explained in the following. You should also be careful that your vehicle does not ex- ceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and front and rear Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). See the “Loading your vehicle” section in chapter 8 for in-


formation on loading cargo into or onto your vehicle. The maximum load limit of the cargo, crossbars and carrying attachment must not exceed 100 lbs (45 kg). Place the heaviest load at the bottom, nearest the roof, and evenly distribute the cargo. Always properly secure all cargo.


(cid:132) Installing carrying attachments on the


crossbars


When installing any carrying attachment such as a bike carrier, ski carrier, kayak carrier, cargo basket, etc. on the crossbars, follow the manufacturer’s in- structions and make sure that the attachment is se- curely fixed to the crossbars. Use only attachments designed specifically for the crossbars. A set of the crossbars is designed to carry loads (cargo and at- tachment) of not more than 100 lbs (45 kg). Before operating the vehicle, make sure that the cargo is properly secured on the attachment. NOTE Remember that the vehicle’s center of gravity is al- tered with the weight of the load on the roof, thus affecting the driving characteristics. Drive carefully. Avoid rapid starts, hard cornering and abrupt stops. Crosswind effects will be in- creased.

(cid:132) Removal and installation of the cross-


bars


Do not carry cargo on the roof when the cross- bars are removed. Luggage on the roof will be thrown forward or backward in sudden stops or rapid accelerations, resulting in a dangerous road hazard.


The crossbars can be removed when you do not use the roof to carry cargo.
