!Satellite radio reception
Satellite radio signals are best received inareas with a clear view of the open sky. Inareas wherethere are tall buildings, trees,tunnels or other structures that mayobstruct the signal of the satellites, theremay be signal interruptions. Other circum-stances that may result in signal lossinclude driving near a wall, steep cliff orhill, or driving on the lower level of a multi-tiered road or inside a parking garage.
To help reduce this condition, satelliteradio providers have installed ground-based repeaters in heavily populatedareas. However, you may still experiencereception problems in some areas.

7-6Starting and operating
inspect your vehicle’s emission controlsystem. If your vehicle does not pass thistest, some states may deny renewal ofyour vehicle’s registration.
Your vehicle is equipped with a computerthat monitors the performance of theengine’s emission control system. Certi-fied emissioninspectors will inspect theOn-Board Diagnostic (OBDII) system aspart of the state emission inspectionprocess. The OBDII system is designedto detect engine and transmission pro-blems that might cause the vehicle emis-sions to exceed allowable limits. OBDIIinspectionsapply to all 1996 model yearand newer passenger cars and trucks.Over 30 states plus the District of Colum-bia have implemented emission inspec-tion of the OBDII system.
.The inspection of the OBDII systemconsists of a visual operational check ofthe“CHECK ENGINE”warning light/mal-function indicator light (MIL) and anexamination of the OBDII system with anelectronic scan tool.
.A vehiclepasses the OBDII systeminspection if proper operation of the“CHECK ENGINE”warning light is ob-served, there are no stored diagnostictrouble codes, and the OBDII readinessmonitors are all complete.
.A vehiclefails the OBDII inspection ifthe“CHECK ENGINE”warning light is notproperly operating (light is illuminated or isnot working due to a burned out bulb) orthere is one or more diagnostic troublecodes stored in the vehicle’s computer.
.A state emission inspection may reject(not pass or fail) a vehicle if the number ofOBDII system readiness monitors“NOTREADY”is greater than one. If thevehicle’s battery has been recently re-placed or disconnected, the OBDII systeminspection may indicate that the vehicle isnot ready for the emission test. Under thiscondition, the vehicle driver should beinstructed to drive his/her vehicle for a fewdays to reset the readiness monitors andreturn for an emission re-inspection.
.Owners of rejected or failing vehiclesshould contact their SUBARU Dealer forservice.
Some states still use dynamometers intheir emission inspection program. Adynamometer is a treadmill or roller-liketesting device that allows your vehicle’swheels to turn while the vehicle remains inone place. Prior to your vehicle being puton a dynamometer, tell your emissioninspectornot to place your SUBARUAWD vehicle on a two-wheel dynam-ometer.Otherwise, serious transmis-sion damage will result.
The U.S. Environmental ProtectionAgency (EPA) and states using two-wheeldynamometers in their emission testingprogram have EXEMPTED SUBARUAWD vehicles from the portion of thetesting program that involves a two-wheeldynamometer. There are some states thatuse four-wheel dynamometers in theirtesting program. When properly used, thisequipment should not damage a SUBARUAWD vehicle.
Under no circumstances should the rearwheels be jacked off the ground, norshould the driveshaft be disconnected forstate emission testing.

11-22Maintenance and service
not be functioning normally. In this event,go to a SUBARU dealer to have thesystem inspected as soon as possible.
While the vehicle is driven, friction be-tween tires and the road surface causesthe tires to warm up. After illumination ofthe low tire pressure warning light, anyincrease in the tire pressures caused byan increase in the outside air temperatureor by an increase in the temperature in thetires can cause the low tire pressurewarning light to turn off.
System resetting is necessary when thewheels are changed (for example, aswitch to snow tires) and new TPMSvalves are installed on the newly fittedwheels. Have this work performed by aSUBARU dealer following wheel replace-ment.
It may not be possible to install TPMSvalves on certain wheels that are on themarket. Therefore, if you change thewheels (for example, a switch to snowtires), use wheels that have the same partnumber as the standard-equipmentwheels. Without four operational TPMSvalve/sensors on the wheels, the TPMSwill not fully function and the warning lightin the instrument panel will illuminatesteadily after blinking for approximatelyone minute.
When a tire is replaced, adjustments arenecessary to ensure continued normaloperation of the tire pressure monitoringsystem. As with wheel replacement, there-fore, you should have the work performedby a SUBARU dealer.
WARNING
If the low tire pressure warning lightdoes not illuminate briefly after theignition switch is turned ON or thelight illuminates steadily after blink-ing for approximately one minute,you shouldhave your Tire PressureMonitoring System checked at aSUBARU dealer as soon as possi-ble.
If this light illuminates while driving,never brake suddenly and keepdriving straight ahead while gradu-ally reducing speed. Then slowlypull off the road to a safe place.Otherwise an accident involvingserious vehicle damage and seriouspersonal injury could occur.
If this light still illuminates whiledriving after adjusting the tire pres-sure, a tire may have significantdamage and a fast leak that causesthe tire to lose air rapidly. If you havea flat tire, replace it with a spare tire
as soon as possible.
When a spare tire is mounted or awheel rim is replaced without theoriginal pressure sensor/transmitterbeing transferred, the low tire pres-sure warning light will illuminatesteadily after blinking for approxi-mately one minute. This indicatesthe TPMS is unable to monitor allfour road wheels. Contact yourSUBARU dealer as soon as possiblefor tire and sensor replacement and/or system resetting. If the lightilluminates steadily after blinkingfor approximately one minute,promptly contact a SUBARU dealerto have the system inspected.
&Tire inspection
Checkon a daily basis that the tires arefree from serious damage, nails, andstones. At the same time, check the tiresfor abnormal wear.
Contact your SUBARU dealer immedi-ately if you find any problem.
NOTE
.When the wheels and tires strikecurbs or are subjected to harsh treat-ment as when the vehicle is driven on arough surface, they can suffer damage
