1) Good 2) Blown
If any lights, accessories or other electri- cal controls do not operate, inspect the corresponding fuse. If a fuse has blown, replace it. 1. Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position and turn off all electrical accesso- ries. 2. Remove the cover. 3. Determine which fuse may be blown. The back side of each fuse box cover and the “Fuses and circuits” section in chapter 12 in this manual show the circuit for each fuse.

Main fuse box
The main fuses are designed to melt dur- ing an overload to prevent damage to the wiring harness and electrical equipment. Check the main fuses if any electrical component fails to operate (except the starter motor) and other fuses are good. A melted main fuse must be replaced. Use only replacements with the same speci- fied rating as the melted main fuse. If a main fuse blows after it is replaced, have the electrical system checked by your nearest SUBARU dealer.
11-42 Maintenance and service
Installation of accessories Always consult your SUBARU dealer be- fore installing fog lights or any other elec- trical equipment in your vehicle. Such ac- cessories may cause the electronic sys- tem to malfunction if they are incorrectly installed or if they are not suited for the ve- hicle.

to replace
High-intensity-discharge (HID) bulbs are used for the low beams of the headlights on the Canada-spec. 2.5XT. These HID bulbs use an ex- tremely high voltage. To avoid the risk of an electric shock and result- ing serious injury, you should not at- tempt them. Neither should you attempt to replace the high-beam bulbs, remove/refit the headlight assemblies, or remove any headlight-assembly components. For replacement of the headlight bulbs (low-beam and high-beam), re- moval and installation of the head- light assemblies, and removal of headlight-assembly components, contact your SUBARU dealer.

Before replacing the left-hand (battery- side) low- or high-beam light bulb, remove the screw that retains the windshield washer nozzle and tip the windshield washer nozzle sideways.
Halogen headlight bulbs become very hot while in use. If you touch the bulb surface with bare hands or greasy gloves, finger prints or grease on the bulb surface will de- velop into hot spots and cause the bulb to break. If there are finger prints or grease on the bulb surface, wipe them away with a soft cloth moistened with alcohol. NOTE (cid:121) If headlight aiming is required, con- sult your SUBARU dealer for proper adjustment of the headlight aim. (cid:121) It may be difficult to replace the bulbs. Have your SUBARU dealer re- place the bulbs if necessary.

Consumer information and Reporting safety defects
Tire information (cid:132) Tire labeling Many markings (e.g. Tire size, Tire Identification Number or TIN) are placed on the sidewall of a tire by tire manufacturers. These marking can provide you with useful information on the tire. (cid:84) Tire size Your vehicle comes equipped with P- Metric tire size. It is important to un- derstand the sizing system in select- ing the proper tire for your vehicles. Here is a brief review of the tire sizing system with a breakdown of its indi- vidual elements. (cid:86) P Metric With the P-Metric system, Section Width is measured in millimeters. To convert millimeters into inches, divide by 25.4. The Aspect Ratio (Section Height divided by Section Width) helps provide more dimensional infor- mation about the tire size.
Example:
(4)
(3)
(2)
P 215 / 60 R 16
(1) (5) (1) P = Certain tire type used on light duty vehicles such as passenger cars (2) Section Width in millimeters (3) Aspect Ratio (= section height ÷ section width). (4) R = Radial Construction (5) Rim diameter in inches (cid:86) Load and Speed Rating Descrip-tions
The load and speed rating descrip- tions will appear following the size designation. They provide two important facts about the tire. First, the number des- ignation is its load index. Second, the letter designation indicates the tire’s speed rating. Example:
P 215 / 60 R 16 94 H (7)

(6) Load Index: A numerical code
Consumer information and Reporting safety defects 13-3
which specifies the maximum load a tire can carry at the speed indicated by its speed symbol, at maximum in- flation pressure. For example, “94” means 1,477 lbs (670 kg).
Load indices apply only to the tire, not to the vehicle. Putting a load rated tire on any vehicle does not mean the vehicle can be loaded up to the tire’s rated load. (7) Speed Rating: An alphabetical system describing a tire’s capability to travel at established and predeter- mined speeds. For example, “H” means 130 mph (210 km/h)
(cid:121) Speed ratings apply only to the tire, not to the vehicle. Put- ting a speed rated tire on any vehicle does not mean the ve- hicle can be operated at the tire’s rated speed.
(cid:121) The speed rating is void if the tires are worn out, damaged, repaired, retreaded, or other- wise altered from their original condition. If tires are repaired, retreaded, or otherwise al- tered, they may not be suitable for original equipment tire de- signed loads and speeds.
(cid:84) Tire Identification Number (TIN) Tire Identification Number (TIN) is marked on the intended outboard sidewall. The TIN is composed of four groups. Here is a brief review of the TIN with a breakdown of its individual elements.

(cid:84) Vehicle placard
800221
The vehicle placard is affixed to the driver’s side door pillar. Example:D00115
The vehicle placard shows original tire size, recommended cold tire infla- tion pressure on each tire at maxi- mum loaded vehicle weight, seating capacity and loading information. (cid:84) Adverse safety consequences
of under-inflation
Driving at high speeds with exces- sively low tire pressures can cause the tires to flex severely and to rapidly become hot. A sharp increase in tem- perature could cause tread separa- tion, and failure of the tire(s). Possible resulting loss of vehicle control could lead to an accident. (cid:84) Measuring and adjusting air
pressure to achieve proper infla- tion
Check and, if necessary, adjust the pressure of each tire (including the spare) at least once a month and be- fore any long journey. Check the tire pressures when the tires are cold. Use a pressure gauge to adjust the tire pressures to the specific values. Driving even a short distance warms up the tires and increases the tire pressures. Also, the tire pressures
are affected by the outside tempera- ture. It is best to check tire pressure outdoors before driving the vehicle. When a tire becomes warm, the air in- side it expands, causing the tire pres- sure to increase. Be careful not to mistakenly release air from a warm tire to reduce its pressure.

(cid:121) Vehicle normal load on a tire Load on an individual tire that is deter- mined by distributing to each axle its share of the curb weight, accessory weight, and normal occupant weight and dividing by two.
(cid:132) Tire care – maintenance and
safety practices
(cid:121) Check on a daily basis that the tires are free from serious damage, nails, and stones. At the same time, check the tires for abnormal wear. (cid:121) Inspect the tire tread regularly and replace the tires before their tread
wear indicators become visible. When a tire’s tread wear indicator becomes visible, the tire is worn beyond the ac- ceptable limit and must be replaced immediately. With a tire in this condi- tion, driving at even low speeds in wet weather can cause the vehicle to hy- droplane. Possible resulting loss of vehicle control can lead to an acci- dent. (cid:121) To maximize the life of each tire and ensure that the tires wear uniformly, it is best to rotate the tires every 7,500
miles (12,500 km). Rotating the tires involves switching the front and rear tires on the right-hand side of the ve- hicle and similarly switching the front and rear tires on the left-hand side of the vehicle. (Each tire must be kept on its original side of the vehicle.) Re- place any damaged or unevenly worn tire at the time of rotation. After tire ro- tation, adjust the tire pressures and make sure the wheel nuts are correct- ly tightened.

(cid:132) Vehicle load limit – how to de-
termine
The load capacity of your vehicle is determined by weight, not by avail- able cargo space. The load limit of your vehicle is shown on the vehicle placard attached to the driver’s side B-pillar. Locate the statement “The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs” on your vehicle’s placard. The vehicle placard also shows seat- ing capacity of your vehicle. The total load capacity includes the total weight of driver and all passen- gers and their belongings, any cargo, any optional equipment such as a trailer hitch, roof rack or bike carrier, etc., and the tongue load of a trailer. Therefore cargo capacity can be cal- culated by the following method. Cargo capacity = Load limit – (total weight of occupants + total weight of optional equipment + tongue load of a trailer (if applicable)) For towing capacity information and weight limits, refer to “Trailer towing” in Chapter 8.
(cid:84) Calculating total and load capac- ities varying seating configura- tions
Calculate the available load capacity as shown in the following examples: Example 1A
1. Calculate the total weight.
Total weight = 154 lbs (70 kg) + 662 lbs (300 kg)
(Occupant)
(Cargo)
= 816 lbs (370 kg) 2. Calculate the available load capac- ity by subtracting the total weight from the vehicle capacity weight of 900 lbs (408 kg).
D00106
Vehicle capacity weight of the vehicle is 900 lbs (408 kg), which is indicated on the vehicle placard with the state- ment “The combined weight of occu- pants and cargo should never exceed 900 lbs or 408 kg”. For example, if the vehicle has one occupant weighing 154 lbs (70 kg) plus cargo weighing 662 lbs (300 kg).3. The result of step 2 shows that a further 84 lbs (38 kg) of cargo can be carried.

2. Calculate the available load capac- ity.
D00107
For example, if a person weighing 176
lbs (80 kg) now enters the same vehi- cle (bringing the number of occupants to two), the calculations are as fol- lows: 1. Calculate the total weight.Total weight = 154 lbs (70 kg) + 176 lbs (80 kg)
(Occupant)
+ 662 lbs (300 kg)
(Cargo)
= 992 lbs (450 kg)
3. The total weight now exceeds the capacity weight by 92 lbs (42 kg), so the cargo weight must be reduced by 92 lbs (42 kg) or more. Example 2A
D00108
Vehicle capacity weight of the vehicle is 900 lbs (408 kg), which is indicatedon the vehicle placard with the state- ment “The combined weight of occu- pants and cargo should never exceed 408 kg or 900 lbs”. For example, the vehicle has one oc- cupant weighing 165 lbs (75 kg) plus cargo weighing 375 lbs (170 kg). In addition, the vehicle is fitted with a trailer hitch weighing 22 lbs (10 kg), to which is attached a trailer weighing 1,764 lbs (800 kg). 10% of the trailer weight is applied to the trailer tongue (i.e. Tongue load = 176 lbs (80 kg)). 1. Calculate the total weight.
Total weight = 165 lbs (75 kg) + 375 lbs (170 kg)
(Occupant)
(Cargo)
+ 22 lbs (10 kg) + 176 lbs (80 kg)
(Trailer hitch)
(Tongue load)
= 738 lbs (335 kg)
2. Calculate the available load capac- ity.

3. The result of step 2 shows that a further 162 lbs (73 kg) of cargo can be carried. Example 2B
the vehicle for the child to use, the cal- culations are as follows: 1. Calculate the total weight.
Total weight = 165 lbs (75 kg) + 143 lbs (65 kg)
(Occupant)
+ 40 lbs (18 kg) (Occupant)
+ 11 lbs (5 kg) + 375 lbs (170 kg)
(Child restraint)
(Cargo)
+ 22 lbs (10 kg) + 176 lbs (80 kg)
(Trailer hitch)
(Tongue load)
= 932 lbs (423 kg) 2. Calculate the available load capac- ity.
D00109
For example, if a person weighing 143
lbs (65 kg) and a child weighing 40 lbs (18 kg) now enter the same vehicle (bringing the number of occupants to three), and a child restraint system weighing 11 lbs (5 kg) is installed in3. The total weight now exceeds the
capacity weight by 32 lbs (15 kg), so the cargo weight must be reduced by 32 lbs (15 kg) or more.
(cid:132) Determining compatibility of tire and vehicle load capaci- ties
The sum of four tires’ maximum load ratings must exceed the maximum loaded vehicle weight (“GVWR”). In addition, sum of the maximum load ratings of two front tires and of two rear tires must exceed each axle’s maximum loaded capacity (“GAWR”). Original equipment tires are designed to fulfill those conditions. The maximum loaded vehicle weight is referred to Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). And each axle’s maximum loaded capacity is referred to Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). The GVWR and each axle’s GAWR are shown on the vehicle cer- tification label affixed to the driver’s door. The GVWR and front and rear GAWRs are determined by not only the maximum load rating of tires but also loaded capacities of the vehicle’s

suspension, axles and other parts of the body. Therefore, this means that the vehicle cannot necessarily be loaded up to the tire’s maximum load rating on the tire sidewall.
(cid:132) Adverse safety consequenc- es of overloading on handling and stopping and on tires
Overloading could affect vehicle han- dling, stopping distance, vehicle and tire as shown in the following. This could lead to an accident and possibly result in severe personal injury. (cid:121) Vehicle stability will deteriorate. (cid:121) Heavy and/or high-mounted loads could increase the risk of rollover. (cid:121) Stopping distance will increase. (cid:121) Brakes could overheat and fail. (cid:121) Suspension, bearings, axles and other parts of the body could break or experience accelerated wear that will shorten vehicle life. (cid:121) Tires could fail. (cid:121) Tread separation could occur. (cid:121) Tire could separate from its rim.
(cid:132) Steps for Determining Cor-
rect Load Limit
1. Locate the statement “The com- bined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX pounds” on your vehicle’s placard. 2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be riding in your vehicle. 3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kilograms or XXX pounds. 4. The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and lug- gage load capacity. For example, if the “XXX” amount equals 1,400 lbs (635kg). and there will be five- 150 lbs (68 kg) passengers in your vehicle, the amount of available cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1,400 – 750 (5 × 150) = 650 lbs) 5. Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safe- ly exceed the available cargo and lug- gage load capacity calculated in Step 4. 6. If your vehicle will be towing a trail- er, load from your trailer will be trans-

Uniform tire quality grading standards This information indicates the relative performance of passenger car tires in the area of treadwear, traction, and temperature resistance. This is to aid the consumer in making an informed choice in the purchase of tires. Quality grades can be found where applicable on the tire sidewall be- tween tread shoulder and maximum section width. For example: Treadwear 200 Traction AA Tem- perature A The quality grades apply to new pneu- matic tires for use on passenger cars. However, they do not apply to deep tread, winter type snow tires, space- saver or temporary use spare tires, tires with nominal rim diameters of 12
inches or less, or to some limited pro- duction tires. All passenger car tires must confirm to Federal Safety Requirements in addition to these grades.(cid:132) Treadwear The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled con- ditions on a specified government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one-half (1-1/2) times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative perfor- mance of tires depends upon the ac- tual conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm due to variations in driving hab- its, service practices and differences in road characteristics and climate.
(cid:132) Traction AA, A, B, C The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B and C. Those grades represent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled conditions on speci- fied government test surfaces of as- phalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance.
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight- ahead braking traction tests, and does not include accelera- tion, cornering, hydroplaning, or peak traction characteristics.
(cid:132) Temperature A, B, C The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the tire’s resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled condi- tions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high tempera- ture can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C corre- sponds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of per- formance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by law.

tain other information about motor vehicle safety from the Hotline.
The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly inflated and not over- loaded. Excessive speed, under- inflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in combina- tion, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.
Reporting safety defects (USA) If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or could cause injury or death, you should immediately in- form the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying Subaru of America, Inc. If NHTSA receives similar com- plaints, it may open an investiga- tion, and if it finds that a safety de- fect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy campaign. However, NHTSA can- not become involved in individual problems between you, your deal- er, or Subaru of America, Inc. To contact NHTSA, you may either call the Auto Safety Hotline toll- free at 1-800-424-9393 (or 366- 0123 in the Washington D.C. area) or write to: NHTSA, U.S. Depart- ment of Transportation, Washing- ton, D.C. 20590.
