Inspection Mode
1. PREPARATION FOR THE INSPECTION
MODE
1) Check battery voltage is more than 12 V and fuel
remains half [20 — 402 (5.3 — 10.6 US gal, 4.4 —
8.8 Imp gal)].
2) Lift-up the vehicle using a garage jack and place
it on rigid racks or drive the vehicle onto free rollers.
WARNING:
Before lifting-up the vehicle, ensure parking
brakes are applied.
Do not use a pantograph jack in place of a rig-
id rack.
Secure a rope or wire to the front or rear tow-
ing hooks to prevent the lateral runout of front
wheels.
Do not abruptly depress/release clutch pedal
or accelerator pedal during works even when
the engine is operating at low speeds since this
may cause vehicle to jump off free rollers.
In order to prevent the vehicle from slipping
due to vibration, do not place any wooden
blocks or similar items between the rigid racks
and the vehicle.
Since the rear wheels will also rotate, do not
place anything near them. Also, make sure that
nobody goes in front of the vehicle.
2. SUBARU SELECT MONITOR
1) After clearing the memory, check for any remain-
ing unresolved trouble data.
2) Idle the engine.
3) Prepare the Subaru Select Monitor kit.

Drive Cycle
13.Drive Cycle
A: OPERATION
There are three driving patterns on diagnosis. Fol-
lowing trouble can be diagnosed with driving spec-
ified patterns. After repair the following trouble, be
sure to check that the trouble is cleared correctly by
the driving specified patterns.
1. PREPARATION FOR DRIVE CYCLE
1) Check battery voltage is more than 12 V and fuel
remains half [20 — 402 (5.3 — 10.6 US gal, 4.4 —
8.8 Imp gal)].2) After clearing the memory, check for any remain-
ing unresolved trouble data.
3) Separate the test mode connector.
NOTE:
Be sure to perform the diagnosis after idling from
starting the cooled engine except when the engine
coolant temperature is specified.
Perform the diagnosis twice when the DTC is
marked with *. After the completion of first diagno-
sis, stop the engine and perform the second diag-
nosis on same condition.
2. DRIVE THE VEHICLE 20 MINUTES AT THE SPEED OF 80 KM/H (50 MPH), AND THEN IDLE
THE ENGINE 1 MINUTE.
3. 10 MINUTES IDLING
NOTE:
Drive the vehicle more than 4 km/h (6 MPH) before diagnosis.
