Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags
low, we recommend that you have an autho-
rized SUBARU dealer perform the work. The
SRS airbag control module, impact sensors
and airbag modules are stored in these areas. y

y Inside each front fender
y Steering wheel and column and nearby areas
y Top of the dashboard on front passenger’s
side and nearby areas
y Inside each center pillar
In the event that the SRS airbag is deployed, re-
placement of the system should be performed
only by an authorized SUBARU dealer. When the
components of the SRS airbag system are re-
placed, use only genuine SUBARU parts.
To ensure their long-term reliability, the SRS airbags
must be inspected by a SUBARU dealer ten years af-
ter the date of manufacture, which is shown on the cer-
tification label attached to the driver’s door.
NOTE
In the following cases, contact your SUBARU deal-
er as soon as possible. y The front part of the vehicle was involved in an
accident in which the SRS frontal airbags did not deploy.y
The pad section of the steering wheel or front
passenger’s frontal airbag cover is scratched,
cracked, or otherwise damaged. „ Precautions against vehicle modifica- tion
yTo avoid accidental activation of the system
or rendering the system inoperative, which may
result in serious injury, no modifications
should be made to any components or wiring of
the SRS airbag system.
This includes following modifications:
yInstallation of custom steering wheels
y Attachment of additional trim materials to
the dashboard
y Installation of additional electrical/electronic
equipment such as a mobile two-way radio on
or near the SRS airbag system components
and/or wiring is not advisable. This could inter-
fere with proper operation of the SRS airbag
system.

Stand the roof antenna up for use. You can detach the
roof antenna by turning it counterclockwise. When fit-
ting the roof antenna, turn it clockwise and tighten it securely.
When working on the cargo bed, be careful notto get poked in the eye by the roof antenna.
NOTE yDetach the roof antenna before putting the vehi-
cle in a garage and before washing it in an auto-
matic car wash.y After detaching the roof antenna, keep the
mounting hole free of dirt and dust. If any dirt or
dust sticks to the hole, remove it before attaching
the roof antenna. y When detaching the roof antenna, grasp and
turn the roof antenna at the base. y To avoid damaging the roof antenna, be careful
not to overtighten it when attaching it.y Radio reception is not possible with the roof an-
tenna folded down. Also, reception deteriorates if
metallic objects are placed near the roof antenna. „
FM reception
Although FM is normally static free, reception can be
affected by the surrounding area, atmospheric condi-
tions, station strength and transmitter distance. Build-
ings or other obstructions may cause momentary stat-
ic, flutter or station interference. If reception continues
to be unsatisfactory, switch to a stronger station.
