rear seat detects if the seat is occupied
by a passenger. Heavy cargo or large
pets on the rear seat may result in the
activation of the passenger seatbelt
warning light and chime. Fastening the
rear seatbelt prior to loading cargo or
large pets will avoid activating the
passenger seatbelt warning light and
chime.
 When folding the rear seat, ensure
that the seat is empty prior to folding. Items caught between the seat bottom
and seatback, when folded, may
damage the seat surface or activate the
passenger seatbelt warning light and

If the warning light exhibits any of
the following conditions, immedi-
ately stop the vehicle in a safe
place, and consult a SUBARU
dealer. Unless a technician checks

This coolant temperature low indicator
light/coolant temperature high warning
light has the following three functions.
Illumination in BLUE indicates insuffi-
cient warming up of the engine
 Blinking in RED indicates that the
engine is close to overheating
 Illumination in RED indicates over-
heating condition of the engine
For the system check, this indicator light/
warning light illuminates in RED for
approximately 2 seconds when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the “ON” position.
After that, this indicator light/warning light
changes to BLUE and maintains illumina- tion in BLUE
. This BLUE illuminated light
turns off when the engine is warmed up
sufficiently.
If the engine coolant temperature
increases over the specified range, the
indicator light/warning light blinks in RED.
At this time, the engine is close to over-
heating.
If the engine coolant temperature
increases further, the indicator light/
warning light illuminates in RED continu-
ously. At this time, the engine may be
overheating.
When the indicator light/warning light
blinks in RED or illuminates in RED, safely
stop the vehicle as soon as possible, and
refer to the emergency steps for the
engine overheating. Refer to "Engine
Overheating" P319. After that, have the
system checked by your nearest
SUBARU dealer.
Also, if the indicator light/warning light
often blinks in RED, the electrical system
may be malfunctioning. Contact your
SUBARU dealer for an inspection.
NOTEIf the engine is restarted after a certain
driving condition, this indicator light/
warning light may illuminate in RED.
However, this is not a malfunction if the indicator light/warning light turns
off after a short time.

If this light illuminates when the engine is
running, it may indicate that the charging
system is not working properly.
If the light illuminates while driving or does
not turn off after the engine starts, stop the
engine at the first safe opportunity and
check the alternator belt. If the belt is
loose, broken or if the belt is in good
condition but the light remains illuminated,
contact your nearest SUBARU dealer
immediately.■

Preparing to Drive
228have implemented emission inspection of
the OBDII system.
The inspection of the OBDII system
consists of a visual operational check of
the “ CHECK ENGINE ” warning light/
malfunction indicator light (MIL) and an
examination of the OBDII system with an
electronic scan tool.
 A vehicle passes
the OBDII system
inspection if proper operation of the
“ CHECK ENGINE ” warning light is
observed, there are no stored diagnostic
trouble codes, and the OBDII readiness
monitors are all complete.
 A vehicle fails
the OBDII inspection if
the “ CHECK ENGINE ” warning light is not
properly operating (light is illuminated or is
not working due to a burned out bulb) or
there is one or more diagnostic trouble
codes stored in the vehicle’s computer.
 A state emission inspection may reject
(not pass or fail) a vehicle if the number of
OBDII system readiness monitors “ NOT
READY ” is greater than one. If the
vehicle’s battery has been recently
replaced or disconnected, the OBDII
system inspection may indicate that the
vehicle is not ready for the emission test.
Under this condition, the vehicle driver
should be instructed to drive his/her
vehicle for a few days to reset the readi-
ness monitors and return for an emission
re-inspection. 
Owners of rejected or failing vehicles
should contact their SUBARU Dealer for
service.
7-3. Preparing to DriveYou should perform the following checks
and adjustments every day before you
start driving.
1. Check that all windows, mirrors, and
lights are clean and unobstructed.
2. Check the appearance and condition
of the tires. Also check tires for proper
inflation.
3. Look under the vehicle for any sign of
leaks.
4. Check that no small animals enter the
engine compartment.
5. Check that the hood and trunk are fully
closed.
6. Check the adjustment of the seat.
7. Check the adjustment of the inside
and outside mirrors.
8. Fasten your seatbelt. Check that your
passengers have fastened their seatbelts.
9. Check the operation of the warning
and indicator lights when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position.
10. Check the gauges, indicator and
warning lights after starting the engine.

General Precautions When
Starting Engine
NOTE
It may be difficult to start the engine
when the battery has been discon-
nected and reconnected (for mainte-
nance or other purposes). This
difficulty is caused by the electroni-
cally controlled throttle’s self-diag-
nosis function. To overcome it, keep
the ignition switch in the “ON” position
for approximately 10 seconds before
starting the engine.
 Avoid rapid racing and rapid accel-
eration immediately after the engine
has started.
 For a short time a fter the engine has
started, the engine speed is kept high.
CAUTION
Small animals trapped in the cool-
ing fan and belt of the engine may
result in a malfunction. Check that
no small animal enters the engine
compartment and under the vehicle
before starting the engine.
WARNING
 Never start the engine from
outside the vehicle. It may result
in an accident.Do not leave the engine running
in locations with poor ventilation,
such as a garage and indoors.
The exhaust gas may enter the
vehicle or indoors, and it may
result in carbon monoxide
poisoning.
Do not start the engine near dry
foliage, paper, or other flammable
substances. The exhaust pipe
and exhaust emissions can
create a fire hazard at high
temperatures.
CAUTION
If the engine is stopped during
driving, the catalyst may overheat
and burn.When starting the engine, be sure
to sit in the driver’s seat.
