• Temporary use: Even when the selector lever is in the “D” (Drive) position, you can


temporarily shift the gear by pulling the “+” or “-” paddle shift control switch. The transmission will then automatically switch back to Normal Mode.


• When the shift selector lever is in Manual Mode, shift to the next higher gear by pulling the “+” paddle shift control switch on the steering wheel. Pull the “-” paddle shift control switch to shift into the next lower gear.

Automatic Transmission Shift Mode


The automatic transmission gives you ultimate control with two different driving modes: Normal Mode and Manual Mode.


Normal Mode When the selector lever is in the “D” (Drive) position, the transmission is in Normal shift mode. The shift position indicator on the instrument panel shows “D” and the transmission automatically shifts into a suitable forward gear.


Manual Mode In Manual Mode, you select the desired gear position to obtain necessary acceleration and engine braking. Moving the selector lever left into the manual gate 1 from the “D” (Drive) position causes the transmission to change into Manual Mode. To shift, use the paddle shift control switches or gear lever. The shift position indicator shows the selected gear position. When Manual Shifting Operation is Possible


• Arrow-shaped indicator lights in the center of the instrument panel show


whether an upshift is possible and whether a downshift is possible.


- Both arrows are on: Upshifting and downshifting are both possible.


- Up arrow only is on: Only upshifting is possible.


- Down arrow only is on: Only downshifting is possible.

BRZ Engine Compartment


1. Air Cleaner Element


4. Main Fuse Box


This element filters intake air. Follow the maintenance guidelines in your “Warranty and Maintenance” booklet. When necessary, replace this element with a genuine Subaru air cleaner.


2. Engine Coolant Reservoir


Check your coolant level at each fuel stop. Observe the coolant level on the outside of the reservoir while the engine is cool. If the level is close to – or lower than – the “LOW” level mark, add coolant to the “FULL” level mark. If the reserve tank is empty, remove the radiator cap and refill as required. Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for details.


3. Radiator Cap


If your engine overheats, safely pull off the road and stop your vehicle in a safe place. Never attempt to remove the radiator cap until the engine has been shut off and has fully cooled down. If steam is coming from the engine compartment, turn the engine off and move everyone away from the vehicle until it cools. Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for details.


2222


Your BRZ has two fuse boxes. One is located under the instrument panel, behind the fuse box cover on the driver’s seat side. The other is housed in the engine compartment, as shown here. Fuses are designed to melt during an overload situation in order to prevent damage to the wiring harness and electrical equipment. If any lights, accessories or electrical controls fail to operate properly, inspect the corresponding fuse. If it has melted or appears discolored, replace it in accordance with the instructions in your Owner’s Manual. The fuse puller and spare fuses are located in the main fuse box in the engine compartment.


5. Engine Oil Level Gauge


Check the engine oil level at each fuel stop. Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean, and insert it again. Pull it out and check the oil level. If it’s below the lower level, add oil to bring the level up to the upper level. Use only engine oil of the recommended grade and viscosity.


1145810_13a_Subaru_BRZ_QRG_030812.indd 22


3/8/12 2:08 PM


8. Engine Oil Filler Cap


Change your oil according to the maintenance schedule in your “Warranty and Maintenance Booklet.” Your engine oil must be changed more frequently when you drive on dusty roads, frequently make short trips, or when you drive in extremely cold weather.


9. Windshield Washer Tank


It’s a good idea to check your washer fluid every time you stop for fuel. If the level is low, fill the windshield washer tank to the neck of the reservoir with windshield washer fluid. In cold weather, use a freeze resistant windshield washer fluid.


Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for oil recommendations and other important details.


6. Battery


When your vehicle does not start due to a battery that has run down, the vehicle may be jump-started by connecting your battery to another battery with jumper cables. Jump-starting is dangerous if done incorrectly. Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for instructions. If you’re unsure about how to jump- start your vehicle, please consult a competent mechanic.


7. Brake Fluid Reservoir


Check your brake fluid level monthly. Observe the fluid level on the outside of the reservoir. If the level is below the “MIN” level mark, add the recommended brake fluid (FMVSS No. 116, fresh DOT 3 or 4 brake fluid) to the “MAX” level mark. Use only brake fluid from a sealed container.

Safety/In Case of Emergency


Child Restraint System For maximum safety, first carefully read the LATCH system instructions from the device manufacturer, as well as the installation instructions in your Owner’s Manual, to properly install the LATCH compatible child restraint system. Use the appropriate seatbelts or anchorages provided in your vehicle. Children age 12 and under must properly occupy the rear seat at all times.


Internal Safety Trunk Release with Self-Illuminating Handle In the event that children or adults become locked inside the trunk, this luminescent handle allows them to open the lid from inside the trunk. To open, simply pull the yellow handle downward as indicated by the arrow on the handle, and then push up on the lid.
