Inspection Mode
1. PREPARATION FOR THE INSPECTION
MODE
1) Check battery voltage is more than 12 V and fuel
remains half [20 to 402 (5.3 to 10.6 US gal, 4.4 to
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 raising 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.

4) Connect the diagnosis cable to Subaru Select
Monitor.
5) Insert the cartridge to Subaru Select Monitor.
6) Connect the test mode connector (A) located at
the lower portion of instrument panel (on the driv-
er’s side).

UAL”.
For details concerning DTCs, refer to the List of
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).
Release the parking brake.
The speed difference between front and rear
wheels may light either the ABS warning light, but
this indicates no malfunctions.When engine control
diagnosis is finished, perform the ABS memory
clearance procedure of self-diagnosis function.
3. OBD-II GENERAL SCAN TOOL
1) After performing the diagnostics and clearing the
memory, check for any remaining unresolved trou-
ble data.
2) Idle the engine.
3) Connect the test mode connector (A) located at

er’s side).
4) Connect the OBD-II general scan tool to its data
link connector in the lower portion of the instrument
panel (on the driver’s side).
CAUTION:
