closed position. Push the switch again to open the moonroof completely. To stop the moonroof at a desired position, simply push the opposite side of the switch.


After washing the vehicle or after it rains, wipe away water on the roof prior to opening the moonroof to pre- vent water drops from falling into the passenger com- partment.


 To close the moonroof Push and quickly release the front part of the switch to close the moonroof. The moonroof will stop at a posi- tion 8 in. (20 cm) away from the fully closed position. Push the switch again to close the moonroof com- pletely. To stop the moonroof at a desired position, simply push the opposite side of the switch.


 Anti-entrapment function When the moonroof senses an object trapped be- tween its glass and the vehicle’s roof during closure, it automatically moves back by 6 in. (15 cm) from that point and then stops. The anti-entrapment function may also be activated by a strong shock on the moon- roof even when there is nothing trapped.


NOTE  For the sake of safety, it is recommended that you avoid driving with the moonroof fully opened.  Driving with the moonroof fully open can cause an annoying sound to generate at high speeds. If such a condition has been encountered, use the moonroof at the initial stop position of 20 in. (50
cm).  If the moonroof cannot be closed through switch operation because of system failure, it can be closed manually using a hex-head wrench. For the procedure, refer to “Moonroof – if the moon- roof cannot be closed” in Chapter 9 “In case of emergency”.

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


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.


 Seatbelt warning light and chime When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position, the seatbelt warning light will come on and the remind- er chime will sound for about six seconds to remind the

driver to fasten the seatbelt. The seatbelt warning light remains on for about six seconds and turns off automatically after six seconds. The seatbelt reminder chime will turn off when the driver’s side seatbelt is buckled or it will turn off auto- matically after six seconds.


 SRS airbag system warning light When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position, the SRS airbag system warning light will come on for about six seconds and go out. This shows the SRS air- bag and SRS side airbag (if equipped) and seatbelt pretensioners are in normal operation. If this light comes on while driving or remains illuminat- ed even after a period of about 6 seconds from when the ignition has been turned on, it may indicate that the SRS airbag system or SRS side airbag system (if equipped) or seatbelt pretensioner system is not work- ing properly. Contact your nearest SUBARU dealer immediately.


 CHECK ENGINE warning light/


Malfunction indicator lamp


If the CHECK ENGINE light comes on while you are driving, have your vehicle checked/repaired by your SUBARU dealer as soon as possible. Continued vehicle operation without having the emission control system checked and repaired as necessary could cause serious damage, which may not be covered by your vehicle’s warranty.


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:0) 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. You should have your vehicle checked by an autho- rized SUBARU dealer immediately.


Instruments and controls


NOTE This light also comes on when the fuel filler cap is not tightened until it clicks.


If you have recently refueled your vehicle, the cause of the CHECK ENGINE warning light/malfunction indica- tor lamp coming on could be a loose or missing fuel fill- er cap. Remove the cap and retighten it until it clicks. Make sure nothing is interfering with the sealing of the cap. Tightening the cap will not make the CHECK EN- GINE warning light turn off immediately. It may take several driving trips. If the light does not go out, take your vehicle to your authorized SUBARU dealer im- mediately. (cid:0) If the light is blinking: If the light is blinking while driving, an engine misfire condition has been detected which may damage the emission control system. To prevent serious damage to the emission control system, you should do the following:  Reduce vehicle speed.  Avoid hard acceleration.  Avoid steep uphill grades.  Reduce the amount of cargo, if possible.  Stop towing a trailer as soon as possible.

and come on steadily after several driving trips. You should have your vehicle checked by an authorized SUBARU dealer immediately.


 Charge warning light If this light comes on when the engine is running, it may indicate that the charging system is not working properly.


If the light comes on while driving or does not go out after the engine starts, stop the engine at the first safe opportunity and check the alternator belt. If the belt is loose, broken or if the belt is in good condition but the light remains on, contact your nearest SUBARU deal- er immediately.


 Oil pressure warning light If this light comes on when the engine is running, it may indicate that the engine oil pressure is low and the lubricating system is not working properly. If the light comes on while driving or does not go out after the engine starts, stop the engine at the first safe opportunity and check the engine oil level. If the oil lev- el is low, add oil immediately. If the engine oil is at the proper level but the light remains on, contact your nearest SUBARU dealer immediately.


3-12


Do not operate the engine with the oil pressure warning light on. This may cause serious en- gine damage.


 AT OIL TEMPerature warning


light (for AT vehicles)


If this light comes on when the engine is running, it may indicate that the automatic transmission fluid tem- perature is too hot.


If the light comes on while driving, it is unnecessary to stop the vehicle, but avoid driving up steep grades or in stop and go traffic. (cid:0) Automatic transmission control system warn-


ing


If the light flashes after the engine starts, it may indi- cate that the automatic transmission control system is not working properly. Contact your nearest SUBARU dealer for service immediately.


(U.S.)  ABS warning light (Canada) The ABS warning light comes on when the ignition


switch is turned to the “ON” position and goes out after about two seconds. This is an indication that the ABS system is working properly.


If the warning light behaves as follows, the ABS system may not work properly. When the warning light is on, the ABS function shuts down; however, the conventional brake system continues to operate normally.  The warning light does not come on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position.  The warning light comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position, but it does not go out even when the vehicle speed exceeds approximately 8 mph (12 km/h).  The warning light comes on during driving. If these occur, have the ABS system repaired at the first available opportunity by your SUBARU dealer.


With a vehicle equipped with an EBD system, the ABS warning light comes on together with the brake system warning light if the EBD system becomes faulty. For


Instruments and controls


further details of the EBD system fault warning, refer to “Brake system warning light”. NOTE If the warning light behavior is as described be- low, the ABS system may be considered normal.  The warning light comes on right after the en- gine is started but goes out immediately, remain- ing off.  The warning light remains on after the engine has been started, but it goes out when the vehicle speed reaches about 8 mph (12 km/h).  The warning light comes on during driving, but it goes out immediately and remains off.


When driving with an insufficient battery voltage such as when the engine is jump started, the ABS warning light may come on. This is due to the low battery volt- age and does not indicate a malfunction. When the battery becomes fully charged, the light will go out.


 Brake system warning light


(U.S.) (Canada)


 Driving with the brake system warning light on is dangerous. This indicates your brake sys- tem may not be working properly. If the light re- – CONTINUED –

mains on, have the brakes inspected by a SUBARU dealer immediately.  If at all in doubt about whether the brakes are operating properly, do not drive the vehicle. Have your vehicle towed to the nearest SUBARU dealer for repair.


This light has the following three functions: (cid:0) Parking brake warning The light comes on with the parking brake applied while the ignition switch is in the “ON” position. It goes out when the parking brake is fully released. (cid:0) Brake fluid level warning This light comes on when the brake fluid level has dropped to near the “MIN” level of the brake fluid res- ervoir with the ignition switch in the “ON” position and with the parking brake fully released.


If the brake system warning light should come on while driving (with the parking brake fully released and with the ignition switch positioned in “ON”), it could be an indication of leaking of brake fluid or worn brake pads. If this occurs, immediately stop the vehicle at the near- est safe place and check the brake fluid level. If the flu- id level is below the “MIN” mark in the reservoir, do not

drive the vehicle. Have the vehicle towed to the near- est SUBARU dealer for repair. (cid:0) Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD) sys-


tem warning (for vehicles with EBD)


The brake system warning light also illuminates if a malfunction occurs in the EBD system. In that event, it comes on together with the ABS warning light. The EBD system may be malfunctioning if the brake system warning light and ABS warning light illuminate simultaneously during driving. Even if the EBD system fails, the conventional braking system will still function. However, the rear wheels will be more prone to locking when the brakes are applied harder than usual and the vehicle’s motion may there- fore become somewhat harder to control. If the brake system warning light and ABS warning light illuminate simultaneously, take the following steps: 1. Stop the vehicle in the nearest safe, flat place. 2. Shut down the engine, then restart it. 3. Release the parking brake. If both warning lights go out, the EBD system may be faulty. Drive carefully to the nearest SUBARU dealer and have the system inspected. 4. If both warning lights come on again and stay illu- minated after the engine has been restarted, shut down the engine again, apply the parking brake, and


check the brake fluid level. 5. If the brake fluid level is not below the “MIN” mark, the EBD system may be faulty. Drive carefully to the nearest SUBARU dealer and have the system inspect- ed. 6. If the brake fluid level is below the “MIN” mark, DO NOT drive the vehicle. Instead, have the vehicle towed to the nearest SUBARU dealer for repair.


 Door open warning lights The door open warning light comes on if any door or the rear gate is not fully closed.


Always make sure this light is out before you start to drive.


 Low fuel warning light The low fuel warning light comes on when the tank is nearly empty about 2.3 U.S. gal. (9.0 liters, or 1.9 Imp. gal.). It only operates when the ignition switch is in the “ON” position. NOTE This light does not go out unless the tank is re- plenished up to an internal fuel quantity of about 4.0 U.S. gal.

Wiper and washer


In freezing weather, do not use the windshield washer until the windshield is sufficiently warmed by the defroster. Otherwise the washer fluid can freeze on the windshield, blocking your view.


 Do not operate the washer continuously for more than ten seconds, or when the washer flu- id tank is empty. This may cause overheating of the washer motor. Check the washer fluid level frequently, such as at fuel stops.  Do not operate the wipers when the wind- shield or rear window is dry. This may scratch the glass, damage the wiper blades and cause the wiper motor to burn out. Before operating the wiper on a dry windshield or rear window, always use the windshield washer.  In freezing weather, be sure that the wiper blades are not frozen to the windshield or rear window before switching on the wipers. At-

tempting to operate the wiper with the blades frozen to the window glass could cause not only the wiper blades to be damaged but also the wiper motor to burn out. If the wiper blade is frozen to the window glass, be sure to oper- ate the defroster, windshield wiper deicer (if equipped) or rear window defogger before turn- ing on the wiper.  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.  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 the “Windshield washer fluid” section in chapter 11.) Also, when driving the vehicle when there are freezing temperatures, use non-freezing type wiper blades.  Do not clean the wiper blades with gasoline or a solvent, such as paint thinner or benzene. This will cause deterioration of the wiper

blades.


NOTE  The wiper operates only when the ignition switch is in the “ON” or “ACC” position.  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.  Grease, wax, insects or other material on the windshield or the wiper blade results in jerky wip- er operation and streaking on the glass. If you can- not remove those streaks after operating the washer or if the wiper operation is jerky, clean the outer surface of the windshield or rear window and the wiper blades using a sponge or soft cloth with a neutral detergent or mild-abrasive cleaner. After cleaning, rinse the window glass and wiper blades with clean water. The glass is clean if no beads form on the glass when you rinse with wa- ter.  If you cannot eliminate the streaking even after following this procedure, replace the wiper blades with new ones. Refer to the “Replacement of wiper
