trip meter, the odometer/trip meter will turn
off.
Also, if you open and close the driver’s
door within 10 seconds of illumination of
the odometer/trip meter, the odometer/trip
meter will turn off.
You can switch the display as shown in the
following sequence by pressing the trip

CAUTION
To ensure safety, do not attempt to
change the function of the indicator
while driving, as an accident could
result.NOTEIf the connection between the combina-
tion meter and battery is broken for any
reason such as vehicle maintenance or
fuse replacement, the data recorded on
the trip meter will be lost.
&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.
&Fuel gauge1) Low fuel warning lightThe fuel gauge shows the approximate
amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
When the ignition switch is in the“LOCK”/
“OFF”or“ACC”position, the fuel gauge
shows“E”even if the fuel tank contains
fuel.
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”/“OFF”or“ACC”
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,

.The warning light illuminates while
driving, but it turns off immediately and
remains off.
When driving with an insufficient battery
voltage such as when the engine is jump
started, the ABS warning light may illumi-
nate. This is due to the low battery voltage
and does not indicate a malfunction. When
the battery becomes fully charged, the
light will turn off.&Brake system
warning light
WARNING
.Driving with the brake system
warning light on is dangerous.
This indicates your brake system
may not be working properly. If
the light remains illuminated,
have the brakes inspected by a
SUBARU dealer immediately.
.If at all in doubt about whether the
brakes are operating properly, do
not drive the vehicle. Have your
vehicle towed to the nearest
SUBARU dealer for repair.
.For models with the electronic
parking brake: If the brake sys-
tem warning light illuminates, the
electronic parking brake systemmay be malfunctioning. Immedi-
ately stop your vehicle in a safe
location, use tire stops under the
tires to prevent the vehicle from
moving and contact your
SUBARU dealer. For details, refer
to“Electronic parking brake
(models with electronic parking
brake system)”F7-43.
NOTEFor models with the electronic parking
brake:
.Even if the brake system warning
light illuminates, if the warning light
behavior is as described in the follow-
ing examples, the electronic parking
brake system is not malfunctioning.
–The warning light turns off when
the electronic parking brake is ap-
plied or released.
–The warning light turns off when
the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON”position again.
.The brake system warning light may
illuminate immediately after the engine
is started. However, it is not malfunc-
tioning if the warning light turns off
after the electronic parking brake is
released.
.The brake system warning light mayilluminate after the electronic parking
brake is frequently applied and re-
leased. However, the electronic parking
brake system is not malfunctioning if
the light turns off for a short period of
time.
.When the engine is started while the
electronic parking brake is applied/
released, the system may judge an
abnormal situation and the warning
light may illuminate. If the warning light
illuminates, turn the ignition switch
once to the“LOCK/OFF”position and
then restart the engine. Then, apply/
release the electronic parking brake. If
the warning light turns off, the system
will be restored.
This light has the following functions.
!Parking brake indicator (models
without electronic parking brake
system)
This light illuminates with the parking
brake applied while the ignition switch is
in the“ON”position. It turns off when the

outside of the garage.
.Do not use HomeLink with any
garage door opener that lacks
safety stop and reverse features
as required by U.S. federal safety
standards (this includes any gar-
age door opener model manufac-
tured before April 1, 1982). A
garage door that cannot detect
an object signaling the door to
stop and reverse does not meet
current U.S. federal safety stan-
dards.
.It is also recommended that a new
battery be placed in the hand-
held remote (garage door opener
remote) of the device for quicker
and more accurate training.
.Some vehicles may require the
ignition switch to be turned to the
“ON”or“ACC”position for pro-
gramming and/or operation of
HomeLink.
.Keep the hand-held remote (gar-
age door opener remote) of the
device you are programming for
use in other vehicles as well as
for future HomeLink program-
ming. It is also suggested that
upon the sale of the vehicle, the
programmed HomeLink buttonsbe erased for security purposes.
Refer to“Erasing HomeLink But-
tons”F3-81.
!Programming a New HomeLink
Button
1) Indicator Light
2) HomeLink Buttons1. Press and release the HomeLink but-
ton that you would like to program. The
HomeLink indicator light will flash orange
slowly (if not, refer to“Erasing HomeLink
Buttons”F3-81).
1) Garage door opener remote2. Position the hand-held remote (garage
door opener remote) 1 to 3 inches (2 to 8
cm) away from the HomeLink button that
you would like to program.NOTESome hand-held remotes (garage door
opener remotes) may actually train
better at a distance of 6 to 12 inches
(15 to 30 cm). Keep this in mind if you
have difficulty with the programming
process.

outside mirrors have been cleared and the
windshield wiper blade rubbers have been
deiced completely before that time, press
the control switch to turn them off. If
defrosting, defogging or deicing is not
complete, you have to press the control
switch to turn them on again.
It is possible for the defogger and deicer
system to be set to continuous operation
mode by a SUBARU dealer. Consult your
SUBARU dealer for details. Also, you can
change the setting using the multi-function
display (color LCD). For details, refer to
“Defogger setting”F3-61.
If the battery voltage drops below the
permissible level, continuous operation of
the defogger and deicer system is can-
celed and the system stops operating.
CAUTION
.To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not operate the
defogger and deicer system con-
tinuously for any longer than
necessary.
.Do not use sharp instruments or
window cleaner containing abra-
sives to clean the inner surface of
the rear window. They may da-
mage the conductors printed onthe window.
NOTE.Turn on the defogger and deicer
system if the wipers are frozen to the
windshield.
.If the windshield is covered with
snow, remove the snow so that the
windshield wiper deicer works effec-
tively.
.While the defogger and deicer sys-
tem is in the continuous operation
mode:
–If the vehicle speed remains at 9
mph (15 km/h) or lower for 15
minutes, the windshield wiper dei-
cer system automatically stops op-
erating. However, the rear window
defogger system and outside mirror
defogger system maintain continu-
ous operation in this condition.
–If the vehicle battery voltage
drops below the permissible level,
continuous operation of the defog-
ger system and deicer system is
canceled and the system stops
operating.
Tilt/telescopic steering wheel
WARNING
.Do not adjust the steering wheel
tilt/telescopic position while driv-
ing. This may cause loss of
vehicle control and result in per-
sonal injury.
.If the lever cannot be raised to the
fixed position, adjust the steering
wheel again. It is dangerous to
drive without locking the steering
wheel. This may cause loss of
vehicle control and result in per-
sonal injury.
