Automatic climate control system (if equipped)
Although this climate control system can be used as a full-automatic climate control system, it can also, if desired, be used as a semi-automatic climate control system. When it is used as a full-automatic climate control system, the outlet air temperature, fan speed, air flow distribution, air inlet control, and air conditioner compressor operation are all automatically controlled to maintain a constant, comfortable tem- perature inside the vehicle. NOTE . Operate the automatic climate con- trol system when the engine is running. . When the engine coolant is cold, the blower does not run. . In the “AUTO” mode, when the air temperature in the passenger compart- ment is sufficiently cool, the air condi- tioner compressor does not operate. For efficient defogging or dehumidify- ing in cold weather, press the “A/C” button to operate the air conditioner compressor. . Even when cooling is not necessary, setting the temperature much lower than the current outlet air temperature turns on the air conditioner compres-
sor automatically and the “A/C” indi- cator light on the control panel comes on.

SUBARU recom- mends using the AUTO position. Other positions: The fan speed can be adjusted in seven steps.
This dial is used to set the desired interior temperature.

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

To improve acceleration and gas mileage, the air conditioner compressor is designed to temporarily shut off during air condi- tioner operation whenever the accelerator is fully depressed such as during rapid acceleration or when driving on a steep upgrade.
& Refrigerant for your climate
control system
Your air conditioner uses ozone friendly refrigerant HFC134a. Therefore, the meth- od 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.

& Lubrication oil circulation in

Operate the air conditioner compressor at a low engine speed (at idle or low driving speeds) a few minutes each month during the off-season to circulate its oil.
& Checking air conditioning

If your vehicle’s air conditioning system is equipped with an air filtration system, replace the filter element according to the replacement schedule shown in the following. This schedule should be fol- lowed to maintain the filter’s dust collec- tion ability.
