NOTEFor better fuel economy, do not carry
unneeded cargo.
■
Vehicle Capacity Weight
The load capacity of your vehicle is deter-
mined by weight, not by available cargo
space. The maximum load you can carry
in your vehicle is shown on the tire infla-
tion pressure label attached to the driver’s
side center pillar. It includes the total
Stow cargo and luggage in the
trunk whenever possible.To prevent cargo and luggage
from sliding forward during
braking, do not stack anything in
the enlarged trunk. Keep cargo
and luggage low, as close to the
floor as possible.When you carry something inside
the vehicle, secure it whenever
you can to prevent it from being
thrown around inside the vehicle
during sudden stops, sharp turns
or in an accident.Secure long items properly to
prevent them from shooting
forward and causing serious
injury during a sudden stop.Never exceed the maximum load
limit. If you do, some parts on
your vehicle can break, or it can
change the way your vehicle
handles. This could result in loss
of control and cause personal
injury. Also, overloading can
shorten the life of your vehicle.
Do not place cargo or luggage in
or on the following locations as
the item may get under the clutch,
brake, or accelerator pedal and
prevent the pedals from being
depressed properly, block the
driver’s vision, or hit the driver or
passengers, causing an accident:
- At the feet of the driver- On the front passenger or rear
seats (when stacking items)- On the rear shelf- On the instrument panel- On the dashboard
CAUTION
Do not carry spray cans, containers
with flammable or corrosive liquids
or any other dangerous items inside
the vehicle.

Cleaning the Interior
335
Appearance Care10
– CONTINUED –
Check the interior of the vehicle for water
and dirt accumulation under the floor mats
because that could cause corrosion.
Occasionally check under the mats to
make sure the area is dry.
Keep your garage dry. Do not park your
vehicle in a damp, poorly ventilated
garage. In such a garage, corrosion can
be caused by dampness. If you wash the
vehicle in the garage or put the vehicle
into the garage when wet or covered with
snow, that can cause dampness.
If your vehicle is operated in cold weather
and/or in areas where road salts and other
corrosive materials are used, the door
hinges and locks, trunk lid lock, and hood
latch should be inspected and lubricated
periodically.
10-3. Cleaning the InteriorUse a soft, damp cloth to clean the climate
control panel, audio equipment, instru-
ment panel, center console, combination
meter panel, and switches. (Do not use
organic solvents.)■
Seat Fabric Material
Remove loose dirt, dust or debris with a
vacuum cleaner. If the dirt is caked on the
fabric or hard to remove with a vacuum
cleaner, use a soft brush then vacuum it.
Wipe the fabric surface with a tightly
wrung cloth and dry the seat fabric thor-
oughly. If the fabric is still dirty, wipe using
a solution of mild soap and lukewarm
water then dry thoroughly.
If the stain does not come out, try a
commercially available fabric cleaner. Use
the cleaner on a hidden place and make
sure it does not affect the fabric adversely.
Use the cleaner according to its instruc-
tions.
NOTEAs the color of the meter visor may
transfer, do not place anything on top
of it.■
Leather Seat Materials
The leather used by SUBARU is a high
quality natural product which will retain its
distinctive appearance and feel for many
years with proper care.
Allowing dust or road dirt to build up on the
surface can cause leather to become
brittle and wear prematurely. To maintain
its resiliency, leather should be cleaned
monthly or whenever it becomes soiled.
Before cleaning leather upholstery,
vacuum it to remove dust. Use a soft and
lint-free cloth dampened with lukewarm
water and mild soap, taking care not to
soak the leather or allow water to pene-
trate the stitched seams. Use a gentle
circular motion while cleaning the leather -
do not rub or apply extreme pressure.
Wipe the leather again with another clean,
slightly damp cloth to remove soap
residue and dry with a soft cloth.
Minor surface blemishes or difficult dirt
spots may be treated with a commercial
leather spray. Never use alcohol, cleaning
solvents, leather oils, varnishes or
polishes on your leather as it will dry out
the leather finish.
CAUTION
When cleaning the seat, do not use
benzine, paint thinner, or any simi-
lar materials. Doing so could dam-
age the surface and cause the color
to deteriorate.

Cleaning the Interior
336If your SUBARU is to be parked for a long
time in bright sunlight, it is recommended
that the seats and headrests be covered,
or the windows shaded, to prevent fading
or shrinkage.
You will discover that each leather seat
section will develop soft folds or wrinkles,
which is characteristic of genuine leather.■
Synthetic Leather Upholstery
The synthetic leather material used on the
SUBARU may be cleaned using mild soap
or detergent and water, after first vacu-
uming or brushing away loose dirt. Allow
the soap to soak in for a few minutes and
wipe off with a clean, damp cloth.
Commercial foam-type cleaners suitable
for synthetic leather materials may be
used when necessary.
■
Instrument Panel, Console
Panel, Switches, Combina -
tion Meter, and Other Plastic
Surface
Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the instru-
ment panel, center console, combination
meter panel, and switches.■
Center Information Display
To clean the center information display,
wipe it with a silicone cloth or with a soft
cloth. If the monitor is extremely dirty,
clean it with a soft cloth moistened with
neutral detergent then carefully wipe off
any remaining detergent.
CAUTION
Strong cleaning agents such as sol-
vents, paint thinners, window
cleaner or gasoline must never be
used on leather or synthetic interior
materials. Doing so could damage
the surface and cause the color to
deteriorate.
CAUTION
 Do not use organic solvents such
as paint thinners or gasoline, or
strong cleaning agents that
contain those solvents. Doing so
could damage the surface and
cause the color to deteriorate.Do not use chemical solvents that
contain silicone on the vehicle
audio system, electrical compo-
nents of the air-conditioner or
any switches. If silicone adheres
to these parts, it may cause
damage to electrical compo-
nents.
CAUTION
Do not spray neutral detergent
directly onto the monitor. Doing
so could damage the monitor’s
components.Do not wipe the monitor with a
hard cloth. Doing so could
scratch the monitor.Do not use cleaning fluid that
contains thinner, fuel, or any
other volatile substance. Such
cleaning fluid could erase the
lettering on the switches at the
bottom of the monitor.

Maintenance Precautions
340NOTESUBARU does not endorse the use of
non-SUBARU approved flushing sys-
tems and strongly advises against per-
forming these services on a SUBARU
vehicle. Non-SUBARU approved flush-
ing systems use chemicals and/or sol-
vents which have not been tested or
approved by SUBARU. SUBARU war-
ranties do not cover any part of the
vehicle which is damaged by adding or
applying chemicals and/or solvents
other than those approved or recom-
mended by SUBARU.

Before Checking or
Servicing in the Engine
Compartment
■
When Checking or Servicing
in the Engine Compartment
Do not tamper wi th the wiring of
the SRS airbag system or seatbelt
pretensioner system, or attempt
to take its connectors apart, as
that may activate the system or it
can render it inoperative. NEVER
use a circuit tester for these
wiring. If your SRS airbag or
seatbelt pretensioner needs
service, consult your nearest
SUBARU dealer. Check the inside of the engine
compartment to see if there are
any cloths and tools left. If they
are left inside, they may be a
cause of malfunction and fire.
WARNING
Always stop the engine and apply
the parking brake to prevent the
vehicle from moving.Always let the engine cool down.
Engine parts become very hot
when the engine is running and
remain hot for some time after the
engine is stopped.Do not spill engine oil, engine
coolant, brake fluid or any other
fluid on hot engine components.
This may cause a fire.When the ignition switch is in the
“ON” position, the cooling fan
may operate suddenly even when
the engine is stopped. If your
body or clothes come into
contact with a rotating fan, that
could result in serious injury. To
avoid risk of injury, always turn
the push-button i gnition switch to
the “OFF” position and confirm
that the operation indicator on
the switch is turn ed off. Then take
the access key fob out from the
vehicle.
 Before performing any servicing
on a vehicle equipped with a
remote engine start system
temporarily place that system in
the service mode to prevent it
from unexpectedly starting the
engine.

Maintenance and Service11
– CONTINUED –
It is unnecessary to periodically check the
battery fluid level or periodically refill with
distilled water.
11-26. FusesNOTEFuse rating and using circuit are
described on the fuse box cover.
The fuses are designed to melt during an
overload to prevent damage to the wiring
harness and electrical equipment. The
fuses are located in two fuse boxes.
One is located under the instrument panel
behind the fuse box cover on the driver’s
seat side. To remove the cover, pull it out.
 To lessen the risk of sparks,
remove rings, metal watchbands,
and other metal jewelry. Never
allow metal tools to contact the
positive battery terminal and
anything connected to it WHILE
you are at the same time in
contact with any other metallic
portion of the vehicle because a
short circuit will result. Keep everyone including children
away from the battery.Charge the battery in a well-venti-
lated area.Battery posts, terminals, and
related accessories contain lead
and lead compounds, chemicals
known to the State of California to
cause cancer and reproductive
harm. Batteries also contain
other chemicals known to the
State of California to cause
cancer. Wash hands after
handling.
CAUTION
Never use more than 10 amperes
when charging the battery because
it will shorten battery life.
CAUTION
Never replace a fuse with one hav-
ing a higher rating or with material
other than a fuse because serious
damage or a fire could result.

Consumer Information and Reporting Safety Defects13
– CONTINUED –
The vehicle placard shows original
tire size, recommended cold tire
inflation pressure on each tire at
maximum loaded vehicle weight,
seating capacity and loading infor-
mation.
▼Adverse safety consequences
of under-inflation
Driving at high speeds with exces-
sively low tire pressures can cause
the tires to flex severely and to
rapidly become hot. A sharp
increase in temperature could
cause tread separation, and failure
of the tire(s). Possible resulting loss
of vehicle control could lead to an
accident.
▼ Measuring 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 pressures. Also,
the tire pressures are affected by
the outside temperature. It is best to
check tire pressure outdoors before
driving the vehicle. When a tire
becomes warm, t
he 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Accessory weight
The combined weight (in excess of
those standard items which may be
replaced) of automatic transmis-
sion, power steering, power brakes,
power windows, power seats, radio,

items are available as factory-
installed equipment (whether
installed or not).
 Bead
The part of the tire that is made of
steel wires, wrapped or reinforced by ply cords and that is shaped to fit
the rim.

Bead separation
A breakdown of the bond between
components in the bead.
 Bias ply tire
A pneumatic tire in which the ply
cords that extend to the beads are
laid at alternate an gles substantially
less than 90 degrees to the
centerline of the tread.
 Carcass
The tire structure, except tread and
sidewall rubber which, when
inflated, bears the load.
 Chunking
The breaking away of pieces of the
tread or sidewall.
 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.
 Cord
The strands forming the plies in the
