In case of emergency
4. Turn the hoist shaft end counterclockwise with the
wheel nut wrench until the temporary spare tire is on
the ground with enough cable slack to allow you to pull
it out from under the vehicle.
Do not put your fingers into the center hole of
the temporary spare tire while you pulling it out,
because they might be pinched in between the
wheel and the retainer.
5. Tilt the retainer at the end of the cable and pull it
through the center of the temporary spare tire.
6. After the temporary spare tire is removed from the
cable, the cable must be wound up completely by turn-
ing the hoist nut shaft clockwise until you hear a click-
ing sound. Also visually inspect the cable to make cer-
tain that there is no longer any slack present.y
When using the spare tire hoist:
After the temporary spare tire is removed from
the cable, wind the cable up completely until
the retainer at end of the cable sits against the

underside of the vehicle. Driving with the cable
not retracted fully could result in damage to the
adjacent under floor parts and lead to a serious
accident. yThe spare tire holder is designed to carry
only the smaller temporary spare tire. Never store a full size tire (flat or otherwise) in the
spare tire holder. Doing so can result in dam-
age to adjacent under floor parts and can lead
to a serious accident.
When using the spare tire hoist:
Do not use air tools or power tools to turn the
spare tire hoist shaft end. If you do, it could re-
sult in severe mechanical damage to the spare
tire hoist.
„ Re-storage of spare tire
1. Turn the spare tire hoist shaft end counterclock-
wise with the wheel nut wrench to loosen the cable
sufficiently enough to allow the cable end retainer go
through center hole of the temporary spare tire.
2. Insert the retainer through the center hole of the temporary tire (with the outside of the tire facing up).
3. Turn the hoist shaft end clockwise with the wheel
nut wrench to wind the cable up completely until you
hear a few clicking sounds. Confirm that the temporary
spare tire holding cable has been wound up complete-
ly by shaking the temporary tire.
If the temporary spare tire is not stored secure-
ly, it could damage adjacent areas of the vehi-
cle and make an abnormal noise.
4. Put the rubber cap on the hoist shaft end hole.
5. Place the wheel nut wrench back into the tool bag
and store the jack and tool bag in their storage loca-
tions.

In case of emergency
Confirm that the cooling fan is turning. If the fan is not
turning, immediately turn the engine off and contact
your authorized dealer for repair.
3. After the engine coolant temperature has dropped,
turn off the engine.
If the temperature gauge stays at the overheated
zone, turn the engine off.
4. After the engine has fully cooled down, check the
coolant level in the reserve tank.
If the coolant level is below the “MIN” mark, add cool-
ant up to the “MAX” mark.
5. If there is no coolant in the reserve tank, add cool-
ant to the reserve tank. Then remove the radiator cap
and fill the radiator with coolant.
If you remove the radiator cap from a hot radiator, first
wrap a thick cloth around the radiator cap, then turn
the cap counterclockwise slowly without pressing
down until it stops. Release the pressure from the ra-
diator. After the pressure has been fully released, re-
move the cap by pressing down and turning it.Towing
Never tow AWD vehicles (both AT and MT) with
the front wheels raised off the ground while the
rear wheels are on the ground, or with the rear
wheels raised off the ground while the front
wheels are on the ground. This will cause the
vehicle to spin away due to the operation or de-
terioration of the center differential.
If towing is necessary, it is best done by your SUBARU
