sole panel, and switchesUse a soft, damp cloth to clean the climate
control panel, audio equipment, instru-
ment panel, center console, combination
meter panel, and switches.
CAUTION
.Do not use organic solvents such
as paint thinners or fuel, or
strong cleaning agents that con-
tain those solvents. Doing so
could damage the surface and
cause the color to deteriorate.
.Do not use chemical solvents that
contain silicone on the vehicle
audio system, electrical compo-
nents of the air-conditioner or
any switches. If silicone adheres
to these parts, it may cause
damage to electrical compo-
nents.
&MonitorTo clean the audio/navigation/multi-func-
tion display monitor, wipe it with a silicone
cloth or with a soft cloth. If the monitor is
extremely dirty, clean it with a soft cloth
moistened with neutral detergent then
carefully wipe off any remaining detergent.
CAUTION
.Do not spray neutral detergent
directly onto the monitor. Doing
so could damage the monitor’s
components.
.Do not wipe the monitor with a
hard cloth. Doing so could
scratch the monitor.
.Do not use cleaning fluid that
contains thinner, fuel, or any
other volatile substance. Such
cleaning fluid could erase the
lettering on the switches at the
bottom of the monitor.
Steering wheel with ultra-
suede covering (if equipped)In order to maintain the characteristic
texture and appearance of ultra-suede,
regular cleaning of the steering wheel is
recommended.NOTEIf the steering wheel is used continually
without cleaning, the surface will ap-
pear worn. This is due to dirt from
hands and other sources which causes
the ultra-suede fibers to harden. This is
not a defect.
Follow the procedure below and perform
cleaning.&Regular cleaningIt is recommended that regular cleaning
(approximately once a month) be per-
formed by following the procedure below.
1. Dampen a cloth or similar item with
warm water at approximately 1048F
(408C), then strongly wring it out and wipe
over the entire steering wheel.
2. When the surface of the ultra-suede is
dry, use a lint brush or similar means to
straighten the fibers.

WARNING
.Testing of an All-Wheel Drive
model must NEVER be performed
on a single two-wheel dynam-
ometer or similar apparatus. At-
tempting to do so will result in
transmission damage and in un-
controlled vehicle movement and
may cause an accident or injuries
to persons nearby.
.Always select a safe area when
performing maintenance on your
vehicle.
.Always be very careful to avoidinjury when working on the vehi-
cle. Remember that some of the
materials in the vehicle may be
hazardous if improperly used or
handled, for example, battery
acid.
.Your vehicle should only be ser-
viced by persons fully competent
to do so. Serious personal injury
may result to persons not experi-
enced in servicing vehicles.
.Always use the proper tools and
make certain that they are well
maintained.
.Never get under the vehicle sup-
ported only by a jack. Always use
safety stands to support the
vehicle.
.Never keep the engine running in
a poorly ventilated area, such as
a garage or other closed areas.
.Do not smoke or allow open
flames around the fuel or battery.
This will cause a fire.
.Because the fuel system is under
pressure, replacement of the fuel
filter should be performed only
by your SUBARU dealer.
