To turn the wipers off, return the lever to the “OFF” po- sition.T
Mist (for a single wipe)
For a single wipe of the wipers, pull the lever toward
you. The wipers operate until you release the lever. T Wiper intermittent time control (if equipped)
When the wiper switch is in the “ ” position, turn
the dial to adjust the operating interval of the wiper.
The operating interval can be adjusted continuously
from the shortest interval to the longest.
Two click stop positions of the dial may help you to aim

OnStar services button
Press this button, and you will be connected to an On-
Star Advisor. You will hear a chime, followed by the
words “Connecting to OnStar”. The connection pro-
cess will normally take about 15 seconds. Your sys-
tem is equipped with backup connection retry capabil-
ities. If you do not immediately connect to OnStar, DO
NOT DISCONNECT. A series of retry attempts will be
made automatically. If you wish to cancel your call to
the OnStar center, simply press the OnStar Communi-
cation button. „ OnStar emergency button
In an emergency, press this button to connect with an
OnStar Advisor. Your call will be given the highest pri-
ority, and you will hear a chime followed by the words
“Connecting to OnStar Emergency.” The Advisor will
attempt to locate your vehicle, find out what kind of as-
sistance you require, and contact a nearby emergency
services provider who can dispatch ambulance, fire,
police or other emergency services. Please use this
button only for true emergencies. If you press this but-
ton by mistake, please stay on the line and tell the ad-
visor that there is no emergency. „
OnStar communication button (White DOT)
Press this button at the end of a call. You’ll hear the
words “OnStar Request Ended.” Also, press this but-
ton to answer a call from the OnStar Center, or cancel
a call if one of the other buttons is accidentally
pressed. This button is also used to access OnStar
Personal Calling and Virtual Advisor services, if those
services have been activated. „ System status light
y Solid green – Indicates the OnStar system in the
vehicle is powered ON and ready to make or receive
calls.y Blinking green – The light blinks green to indicate
a call is being connected or in progress. If you notice
this light blinking while you are not on a call, press the
OnStar Communication (white dot) button. y Red – This signals that your OnStar system may not
be functioning properly. Press the OnStar button to at-
tempt to contact an OnStar advisor. If the connection
is made, the advisor will assist you in making sure your
OnStar system is operating properly. If you cannot
contact the OnStar Center, please take your vehicle to
the nearest SUBARU dealership for diagnosis and
service.

a pressure gauge to adjust the tire pressures to the
values shown on the tire placard. The tire placard is lo-
cated on the door pillar on the driver’s side.
Driving even a short distance warms up the tires and
increases the tire pressures. Also, the tire pressures
are affected by the ambient temperature. It is best to
check tire pressure outdoors before driving the vehi- cle.
When a tire becomes warm, the air inside it expands,
causing the tire pressure to increase. Be careful not to
mistakenly release air from a warm tire to reduce itspressure.
NOTE yThe air pressure in a tire increases by approxi-
mately 4.3 psi (30 kPa, 0.3 kg/cm 2
) when the tire
becomes warm. y The tires are considered cold when the vehicle
has been parked for at least three hours or has
been driven less than one mile (1.6 km).
Do not let air out of warm tires to adjust pres-sure. Doing so will result in low tire pressure. Incorrect tire pressures detract from controllability and
ride comfort, and they cause the tires to wear abnor-mally. y
Correct tire pressure (tread worn evenly)
Roadholding is good, and steering is responsive. Roll-
ing resistance is low, so fuel consumption is also low-er.

hicle control could lead to an accident. TMeasuring and adjusting air pressure to
achieve proper inflation
Check and, if necessary, adjust the pressure of
each tire (including the spare) at least once a
month and before any long journey. Check the
tire pressures when the tires are cold. Use a
pressure gauge to adjust the tire pressures to the
specific values. Driving even a short distance
warms up the tires and increases the tire pres-
sures. Also, the tire pressures are affected by the
ambient temperature. It is best to check tire pres-
sure outdoors before driving the vehicle. When a
tire becomes warm, the air inside it expands,
causing the tire pressure to increase. Be careful
not to mistakenly release air from a warm tire to
reduce its pressure. „ Glossary of tire terminology
y Cold tire pressure
The pressure in a tire that has been driven less
than 1 mile or has been standing for three hours
or more. y Maximum inflation pressure The maximum cold inflation pressure to which a
tire may be inflated. y
Recommended inflation pressure
The cold inflation pressure recommended by a
vehicle manufacturer. y Intended outboard sidewall
1)The sidewall that contains a whitewall, bears
white lettering or bears manufacturer, brand,
and/or model name molding that is higher or
deeper than the same molding on the other
sidewall of the tire, or
2)The outward facing sidewall of an asymmet-
rical tire that has a particular side that must al-
ways face outward when mounting on a vehi- cle.
y Accessory weight
The combined weight (in excess of those stan-
dard items which may be replaced) of floor mats,
leather seats and cross bars to the extent that
these items are available as factory-installed
equipment (whether installed or not). y Curb weight
The weight of a motor vehicle with standard
equipment including the maximum capacity of fu-
el, oil, and coolant and air conditioning.
