Cigarette lighter socket (if equipped)
CAUTION
The electrical power socket located on the lower part of the
instrument panel is originally designed to use a SUBARU genuine
cigarette lighter plug. Do not use non-genuine cigarette lighterplugs in the socket. Doing so may cause a short-circuit and over-heating, resulting in a fire. If the socket is ever used for a plug-in accessory such as a
mobile phone, they may damage the portion of the socket ’s inter-
nal mechanism that causes a cigarette lighter plug to “pop out ”
after its lighter element is heated. Therefore, do not place a ciga-rette lighter plug in a socket that has been used, even once, to
power a plug-in accessory. Doing so may cause the plug to stickand overheat, creating a potential fire hazard. Do not place any foreign objects, especially metal ones such
as coins or aluminum foil, into the socket. That could cause ashort circuit.

ing gears and operating the accelerator and brake pedals. If they do, do not use the electrical appliance while driving.If the socket has been used for electrical appliances, damage may
have been done to the internal mechanism that cause a cigarette
lighter to “pop-out” after its element has been heated. For that reason,
a cigarette lighter, even if it is a genuine part, should not be used in
the socket. If you want to use the socket for a cigarette lighter again,
or to protect your purchaser before you sell your car, have your
SUBARU dealer replace the socket with a new one.

CAUTION
Do not use ashtrays as waste receptacles or leave a lighted ciga-
rette in an ashtray. This could cause a fire.
