Press the switch to enter traction mode. This mode restricts the functions of the Traction
Control System and Vehicle Dynamics Control system and thus delays utilizing their functions
as a reaction to vehicle behavior. This mode should be used in driving situations where the
vehicle dynamic performance will improve without decreasing engine torque control. The
indicator light in the gauge cluster will turn green.
Vehicle Dynamics Control OFF Mode
Press and hold the switch to enter Vehicle Dynamics Control Off mode. This mode should be
used in emergency situations, such as getting out of mud or deep snow. The indicator light in
the gauge cluster will turn yellow.

REV Alarm System
(Impreza WRX STI only)The REV alarm system automatically issues a warning
using the REV indicator light whenever the tachometer
needle enters the red zone. The REV alarm level can
be set manually to an engine speed of your choosing
between 2,000 and 7,000 rpm using the trip knob.
The trip knob is also used to select a warning alarm
buzzer in addition to the light. The REV alarm set
level can be viewed in the odometer/tripmeter by

warning buzzer.
6-Speed Manual Transmission
(Impreza WRX STI only)This manual transmission is a fully
synchromeshed 6 - forward and 1 - reverse
speed transmission. Before you can shift into
reverse gear, you must raise the slider ring
and hold it in that position. Only pull the slider
ring up when shifting into Reverse gear.

Front Hood and Hood ScoopDue to the lightweight material, a slight vibration
is normal at higher speeds and will not affect the
durability of the hood. To avoid deforming the
front hood when closing, do not press down
on the hood with your hands. You can release
your hold on the front hood approximately
12 inches above the closing position and its
weight should cause it to close securely.
Driver Control Center
Differential (DCCD)
(Impreza WRX STI only)This system adjusts the torque-distribution
ratio between the front and rear wheels
of the center differential to suit driving and
road surface conditions. The DCCD can be
operated automatically or manually. When

make a vibration or noise when the vehicle is in
tight turns at slow speeds (torque binding). In addition, if the rear differential oil
exceeds a certain temperature, the DCCD will automatically cancel the current
torque-distribution ratio setting and adopt its minimum ratio.
Front Fender VentsThe front fender has functional side vents that increase
air flow through the engine compartment. This provides
additional cooling for the intercooler and engine.
Limited Slip Differential
(Impreza WRX STI only)The Limited Slip Differential (LSD) provides optimum distribution of power according to
the difference in revolution between the right and left rear wheels that may be caused
by certain driving conditions, thereby improving driving stability on snow-covered,
muddy or other slippery roads or during high speed driving. Due to the nature of this
mechanical Limited Slip Differential, the rear differential gears may make a vibration
and/or noise when making turns. When servicing the LSD, use only specified gear oil.
TiresThe factory-fitted tires on your vehicle are summer
tires. Summer tires are high-speed capability tires
best suited for highway driving under dry conditions.
Summer tires are inadequate for driving on slippery
roads, such as on snow-covered or icy roads. If you drive your vehicle on
snow-covered or icy roads, we
strongly recommend the use
of winter (snow) tires for all four
wheels. Please note that these
originally equipped summer
tires offer advanced grip
performance and will wear out
quicker than ordinary tires.

1. Power Steering Fluid Reservoir Check your power steering fluid level
monthly. The power steering fluid expands
greatly as its temperature rises and
the fluid level differs according to fluid
temperature. Therefore, the reservoir tank
has two different checking ranges for
hot and cold fluid. Please refer to your
Owner’s Manual for details.

until the engine has been shut off and has
fully cooled down. If steam is coming from
the engine compartment, turn the engine
off and move everyone away from the
vehicle until it cools. Please refer to your
Owner’s Manual for details. 4. Intercooler
The intercooler is positioned behind
the throttle body to cool intake air and
improve supercharging efficiency. (Intake
air passing through the turbocharger gets
very warm, which could result in lower
supercharging efficiency.) To prevent
damage to this important system, avoid
placing tools and other objects on
the intercooler.
5. Engine Oil Level Gauge Check the engine oil level at each fuel
stop. Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean,
and insert it again. Pull it out and check
the oil level. If it’s below the lower level,
add oil to bring the level up to the
upper level. (Use only engine oil of the
recommended grade and viscosity.
Please refer to your Owner’s Manual
for oil recommendations and other
important details.) 6. Engine Coolant Reservoir
Check your coolant level at each
fuel stop. Observe the coolant
level on the outside of the reservoir
while the engine is cool. If the level

9. Battery When your vehicle does not start
due to a battery that has run down,
the vehicle may be jump-started by
connecting your battery to another
battery with jumper cables. Jump-starting is dangerous if
done incorrectly. Please refer
to your Owner’s Manual for
instructions. If you’re unsure
about how to jump-start your
vehicle, please consult a
competent mechanic.
10. Windshield Washer Tank It’s a good idea to check your washer fluid every time you stop
for fuel. If the level is low, fill the
windshield washer tank to the
neck of the reservoir with
windshield washer fluid. In cold
weather, use a freeze resistant
windshield washer fluid.
11. Main Fuse Box Your Impreza WRX has two fuse boxes. One is located under the
instrument panel, behind the
fuse box cover on the driver’s
seat side. The other is housed
in your engine compartment, as
shown here. Fuses are designed
to melt during an overload
situation in order to prevent
damage to the wiring harness and
electrical equipment. If any lights,
accessories or electrical controls
fail to operate properly, inspect
the corresponding fuse. If it has
blown, replace it in accordance
with the instructions in your
Owner’s Manual. The fuse puller
and spare fuses are located
in the main fuse box in the
engine compartment.

all times.
Location of Spare Tire and Jack
A jack and other maintenance tools are stored
in the tool bucket in the center of the spare
tire, located in the trunk or cargo area.
Internal Child Safety
Trunk Release with
Self-Illuminating Handle (4-Door only)
In the event that children or adults become
locked inside the trunk, this luminescent
handle allows them to open the lid from inside
the trunk. To open, simply pull the yellow
handle downward as indicated by the arrow
on the handle, and then push up on the lid.
Towing Your All-Wheel Drive Vehicle
Since all-wheel drive distributes engine power to all four wheels, improper
towing will severely damage your AWD system. A flatbed truck is the only
recommended way to properly transport your AWD vehicle. If towing is
necessary, it is best done by your Subaru dealer or a commercial towing service.
