Instruments and controls
! Vehicle communication system
fault indication
The vehicle communication system car-
ries various types of information (vehicle
speed, running conditions, etc.) to control
modules. In the event of a fault in this
communication system, the trip meter will
show “
”.
If the trip meter shows “
”, immediately
contact the nearest SUBARU dealer and
have the vehicle communication system
inspected.
NOTEIf you press the trip knob while the trip
meter is showing “
”, the trip meter
indication will appear for 10 seconds.
& TachometerThe tachometer shows the engine speed
in thousands of revolutions per minute.
CAUTION
Do not operate the engine with the
pointer of the tachometer in the red
zone. In this range, fuel injection will
be cut by the engine control module
to protect the engine from overrev-
ving. The engine will resume run-
ning normally after the engine speed
is reduced below the red zone.NOTE (3.0-liter models only)To protect the engine while the “P ” or
“ N ” position is selected, the engine is
controlled such that the engine speed
does not become too high even if the
accelerator pedal is pressed hard.
& Fuel gaugeThe fuel gauge shows the approximate
amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
The gauge does not return to “E”even
though the ignition switch is in the “ACC”
or “LOCK ”position.
The gauge may move slightly during
braking, turning or acceleration due to fuel
level movement in the tank.
If you press the trip knob while the ignition
switch is in the “LOCK”position, the fuel
gauge ’s dial will light up and the needle
will indicate the amount of fuel remaining
in the tank.
If, while the fuel gauge needle is indicating
the amount of fuel remaining in the tank,
you (a) do not press the trip knob for 10
seconds or (b) open and close the driver ’s

door, the fuel gauge needle will drop to the
“E”position and the dial, needle, and rim
will go off.NOTEYou will see the “
”sign in the fuel
gauge.
This indicates that the fuel filler door
(lid) is located on the right side of the
vehicle.
! Low fuel warning light
The low fuel warning light comes on when
the tank is nearly empty [Approximately
2.6 US gal (10 liters, 2.2 lmp gal)].
It only operates when the ignition switch is
in the “ON”position.
NOTEThis light does not go out unless the
tank is replenished up to an internal
fuel quantity of approximately 4.0 US
gal (15 liters, 3,3 lmp gal).
CAUTION
Promptly put fuel in the tank when-
ever the low fuel warning light
comes on. Engine misfires as a
result of an empty tank could cause
damage to the engine.& Temperature gauge1) Normal operating rangeThe temperature gauge shows engine coolant temperature when the ignition
switch is in the
“ON”position.
The coolant temperature will vary in
accordance with the outside temperature
and driving conditions.
We recommend that you drive moderately
until the pointer of the temperature gauge
reaches near the middle of the range.
Engine operation is optimum with the
engine coolant at this temperature range
and high revving operation when the
engine is not warmed up enough should
be avoided.
CAUTION
If the pointer exceeds the normal
operating range, safely stop the
vehicle as soon as possible.
