Precautions to observe when handling a compact disc (CD)


Use only compact discs (CDs) that have the mark shown below. CD- RWs cannot be used. Also, some CD-Rs cannot be played.


HB5062AA


D In cold and/or rainy weather, dew can form inside the CD player, pre- venting normal operation. If this happens, eject the CD and wait for the player to dry out. D Skipping may occur when the CD player is subjected to severe vibra- tion (for example, when the vehicle is driven on a rough surface). D To remove a disc from the case, press the center of the case and hold both edges of the disc. If the disc surface is touched directly, contamina- tion could cause poor tone quality. Do not touch the disc surface. D Use a clean disc whenever possible. If there are deposits, wipe the disc surface from the center outward with a dry, soft cloth. Be sure not to use a hard cloth, thinner, benzene, alcohol, etc. D Do not use any disc that is scratched, deformed, or cracked. Also, do not use any disc that has a non-standard shape (for example, a heart shape). Malfunctions or problems might result. D A disc is vulnerable to heat. Never keep it either in places exposed to direct sunlight, near heaters or in vehicles parked in the sun or hot days.

CAUTION


D The electrical power socket located on the lower part of the instrument panel is originally designed to use a SUBARU genuine cigarette lighter plug.

D If the socket is ever used for a plug-in accessory such as a mobile phone, they may damage the portion of the socket’s inter- nal mechanism that causes a cigarette lighter plug to “pop out” after its lighter element is heated. Therefore, do not place a ciga- rette 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 hazard. D Do not place any foreign objects, especially metal ones such as coins or aluminum foil, into the socket. That could cause a short circuit.

To avoid being burned, never grasp the lighter by the end with the heating element. Doing so could result in injury and could also damage the heating element.


CAUTION


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

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.


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


CAUTION


D Use only in-car use electrical appliances which are designed for 12V DC and which consume less than 120W. Overloading the socket can cause a short circuit. Do not use double adapters or more than one electrical appliance. D If the plug on your electric appliance is either too loose or too tight for the socket, this can result in a poor contact or cause the plug to get stuck. Only use plugs that fit properly. D Use of an electric appliance in the socket for a long period of time while the engine is not running can cause battery discharge. D Before driving your vehicle, make sure that the plug and the cord on your electrical appliance will not interfere with your shift- – CONTINUED –

ing 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 mechanism 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 cigarette lighter again, or to protect your purchaser before you sell your car, have your SUBARU dealer replace the socket with a new one.

The cargo area is equipped with four anchorage eyelets so that cargo can be secured with a luggage net or ropes.


When using the anchorage eyelets, turn them down out of the storing recesses. When not in use, put the eyelets up into the storing recesses.

Fuel


CAUTION


Use of a fuel which is low in quality or use of an inappropriate fuel additive may cause engine damage.


J Fuel requirements


B 2.5 Liter models The 2.5 Liter engine is designed to operate using unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 AKI or higher.


B 3.0 Liter models The 3.0 Liter engine is designed to operate using premium unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 91 AKI or higher. Regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 AKI may be used if necessary. For optimum engine performance and driveability, it is recommended that you use premium grade unleaded gasoline.


B Fuel octane rating This octane rating is the average of the Research Octane and Motor Octane numbers and is commonly referred to as the Anti Knock Index (AKI). Using a gasoline with a lower octane rating can cause persistent and heavy knocking, which can damage the engine. Do not be concerned if your vehicle sometimes knocks lightly when you drive up a hill or when you accelerate. See your dealer or a qualified service techni- cian if you use a fuel with the specified octane rating and your vehicle knocks heavily or persistently.


B Unleaded gasoline The neck of the fuel filler pipe is designed to accept only an unleaded gasoline filler nozzle. Under no circumstances should leaded gaso- line be used because it will damage the emission control system and may impair driveability and fuel economy.

Starting and operating


B Gasoline for California-certified LEV Your vehicle was certified to California’s low emission vehicle (LEV) standards as indicated on the underhood tune-up label. It is designed to optimize engine and emission performance with gasoline that meets the clean burning low-sulfur California gasoline specifications. If you live in any other state than California, your vehicle will operate on gasoline meeting Federal specifications. Gasoline sold outside California is permitted to have higher sulfur levels, which may affect the performance of your vehicle’s catalytic converter and may pro- duce a sulfur exhaust odor or smell. SUBARU recommends that you try a different brand of unleaded gasoline having lower sulfur to deter- mine if the problem is fuel related before returning your vehicle to an authorized dealer for service.


B Gasoline for cleaner air


CAUTION


Do not let fuel spill on the exterior surfaces of the vehicle. Fuels containing alcohol may cause paint damage, which is not cov- ered under the SUBARU Limited Warranty.


Your use of gasoline with detergent additives will help prevent depos- its from forming in your engine and fuel system. This helps keep your engine in tune and your emission control system working properly, and is a way of doing your part for cleaner air. If you continuously use a high quality fuel with the proper detergent and other additives, you should never need to add any fuel system cleaning agents to your fuel tank.


Many gasolines are now blended with materials called oxygenates. Use of these fuels can also help keep the air cleaner. Oxygenated blend fuels, such as MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl ether) or ethanol (ethyl or grain alcohol) may be used in your vehicle, but should con- tain no more than 15% MTBE or 10% ethanol for the proper operation of your SUBARU.

In addition, some gasoline suppliers are now producing reformulated gasolines, which are designed to reduce vehicle emissions. SUBARU approves the use of reformulated gasoline.
