NEW VEHICLE BREAK-IN
The performance and long life of your Subaru are dependent on how you handle and care
for your Subaru while it is new.
Follow these instructions during the first 1,000 miles:
• Do not race the engine.
• Do not drive at one consistent engine or vehicle speed, either fast or slow.
• Avoid starting suddenly and rapid acceleration, except in an emergency.
• Avoid hard braking, except in an emergency.
ENGINE OIL
Use 0W-20 synthetic, with one of the following specifications:
• API classification SN or SN PLUS with the words “RESOURCE CONSERVING”.
• ILSAC GF-5, which can be identified with the ILSAC certification mark (Starburst mark).
ENGINE OIL CAPACITY
4.4 US quarts (during oil and filter change).
When the level is at the "low" mark, add approximately 1 quart of
engine oil in through the filler cap to bring the oil level to the “full”
mark. For filler cap location see the engine compartment on page
50.
