trim can be used to hold beverage bottles
and other items.
6-5. Accessory Power OutletsPower outlet in the glove boxAccessory power outlets are provided in
the glove box. Electrical power (12 V DC)
from the battery is available at any of the
outlets when the ignition switch is in either
the “ACC” or “ON” position.
You can use an in-vehicle electrical appli-
ance by connecting it to an outlet.
The maximum power rating of an appli-
ance that can be connected is 120 W. Do
not use an appliance which exceeds the
indicated wattage for each outlet.
When using appliances connected to two
or more outlets simultaneously, the total
power consumed by them must not
exceed 120 W.
CAUTION
Do not pick up a bottle from the
bottle holder or pu t a bottle in the
holder while you are driving, as
this may distract you and lead to
an accident. When placing a beverage in a
bottle holder, make sure it is
capped. Otherwise, the beverage
could spill when opening/closing
the door or while driving and, if
the beverage is hot, it could burn
you and/or your passengers.

could cause a short circuit.
Always put the cap on the acces-
sory power outlet when it is not in
use.Use only electrical appliances
which are designed for 12 V DC.
The maximum power rating of an
appliance that can be connected
is 120 W. Do not use an appliance
which exceeds the indicated
wattage for each outlet.When using appliances con-
nected to two or more outlets
simultaneously, the total power
consumed by them must not
exceed 120 W. Overloading the

NOTEThe rated voltage of each USB
terminal is 5 V/2.1 A (total 4.2 A). For
details about the maximum rated
power, refer to "How to Use the USB
Power Supply"
P217. Before
connecting a device, be sure to read
the instruction manual of the device
and check whether or not this specifi-
cation of the output is supported by the
device. If a device that requires power
exceeding the maximum rating is
connected, power supply or charging
may not be possible. Even if charging
could be completed, the time required
for charging may be longer than when
the genuine charger for that device is
used.
Depending on the device, charging
may be possible only when a special
If the plug on your electric appli-
ance is either too loose or too
tight for the accessory power
outlet, this can result in a poor
contact or cause the plug to get
stuck. Only use plugs that fit
properly.Use of an electric appliance in the
accessory power outlet for a long
period of time while the engine is
not running can cause battery
discharge.Before driving your vehicle, make
sure that the plug and the cord on
your electrical appliance will not
interfere with your shifting gears
and operating the accelerator and
brake pedals. If they do, do not
use the electrical appliance while
driving.
CAUTION

7-1. Fuel■
Fuel Requirements
The engine is designed to operate using
unleaded gasoline with an octane rating
of 93 AKI (98 RON) or higher .
If unleaded gasoline with an octane
rating of 93 AKI (98 RON) is not available,
unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of
91 AKI (95 RON) may be used with no
detriment to engine durability or
driveability.
However, you may notice a slight
decrease in maximum engine perfor-
mance and you may hear some knocking
(pinging) from the engine while using 91
AKI (95 RON) fuel. Use of 91 AKI (95 RON)
fuel will not affect your warranty
coverage.
▼
Fuel octane rating
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 some-
times knocks lightly when you drive up a
hill or when you accelerate. See your
dealer or a qualified service technician if
you use a fuel with the specified octane
rating and your vehi cle knocks heavily or
persistently.
▽RON
This octane rating is the Research Octane
Number.
▽AKI
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).
▼Unleaded gasoline
The neck of the fuel filler pipe is designed
to accept only an unleaded gasoline filler
nozzle. Under no circumstances should
leaded gasoline be used because it will
damage the emission control system and
may impair driveability and fuel economy. ▼
Reformulated gasoline
SUBARU supports the use of reformu-
lated gasoline when available. Reformu-
lated gasoline has been blended to burn
more cleanly and reduce vehicle emis-
sions.
▼MMT
Some gasoline contains an octane-
enhancing additive called MMT (Methylcy-
clopentadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl). If
you use such fuels, your emission control
system performance may deteriorate and
the CHECK ENGINE warning light/
malfunction indicator light may turn on. If
this happens, return to your authorized
SUBARU Dealer for service. If it is deter-
mined that the condition is caused by the
type of fuel used, repairs may not be
covered by your warranty.
▼Gasoline for cleaner air
Your use of gasoline with detergent addi-
tives will help prevent deposits from
forming in your engi ne and fuel system.
This helps keep your engine in tune and
your emission cont rol 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
CAUTION
Use of a fuel which is low in
quality or use of an inappropriate
fuel additive may cause damage
to the engine and/or fuel system.Some gas stations, particularly
those in high altitude areas, offer
fuels posted as regular octane
gasoline with an octane rating
below 93 AKI (98 RON). Use of
those fuels are not recom-
mended.

Fuel
224need 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 ethanol
(ethyl or grain alcohol) may be used in
your vehicle, but should contain no more
than 15% ethanol for the proper operation
of your SUBARU.
Do not use any gasoline that contains
more than 15% ethanol, including from
any pump labeled E30, E50 or E85 (which
are only some examples of fuel containing
more than 15% ethanol).
In addition, some gasoline suppliers are
now producing reformulated gasolines,
which are designed to reduce vehicle
emissions. SUBARU approves the use of
reformulated gasoline.
If you are not sure what the fuel contains,
you should ask your service station oper-
ators if their gasolines contain detergents
and oxygenates and if they have been
reformulated to reduce vehicle emissions.
As additional guidance, only use fuels
suited for your vehicle as explained in the
following description.
Fuel should be unleaded and have an
octane rating no lower than that specified
in this manual.
Methanol (methyl or wood alcohol) is
sometimes mixed with unleaded gasoline.
Methanol can be used in your vehicle
ONLY if it does not exceed 5% of the fuel
mixture AND if it is accompanied by suffi-
cient quantities of the proper cosolvent
and corrosion inhibitors required to
prevent damage to the fuel system. Do not
use fuel containing methanol EXCEPT
under these conditions.
If undesirable driveability problems are
experienced and you suspect they may be
fuel related, try a different brand of gaso-
line before seeking service at your
SUBARU dealer.
Fuel system damage or driveability
problems which result from the use of
improper fuel are not covered under the
SUBARU Limited Warranty.

Locations of the fuel filler lid
▼Refueling
Only one person should be involved in
refueling. Do not allow others to approach
the area of the vehicle near the fuel filler
pipe while refueling is in progress.
Be sure to observe any other precautions
that are posted at the service station.
1. Stop the vehicle, turn the ignition
switch to the “OFF” position and turn off all
the other electrical components.
2. Push the rear side of the fuel filler lid.
If the fuel filler lid is locked, perform one of
the operations below.
