Hazard warning flasher
The hazard warning flasher is used to warn other driv-
ers when you have to park your vehicle under emer-
gency conditions. The hazard warning flasher works
with the ignition switch in any position.
To turn on the hazard warning flasher, push the haz-
ard warning button on the instrument panel. To turn off
the flasher, push the button again.
NOTE
When the hazard warning flasher is on, the turn
signals do not work.
Meters and gauges (WRX-STi) „Combination meter illumination
When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position,
the various parts of the combination meter are illumi-
nated in the following sequence:
1. Meter needles and gauge needles light up.
2. Meter needles and gauge needles each show MAX
position.
3. Meter needles and gauge needles each show MIN
position, and REV indicator flashes.
4. Dials and indicators in meters and gauges light up.
5. “STi” mark lights up.
6. Regular illumination (for driving) begins. „ Cancelling sequential illumination of
the combination meter
With the ignition switch in the “ON” position, it is pos-
sible to cancel sequential illumination of the combina- tion meter.
Press the trip knob while turning the REV setting knob
clockwise or counterclockwise. The buzzer will sound
briefly, and the outside temperature indicator will show“ON” or “– –”.

REV indicator light and buzzer (WRX-
STi)
The REV alarm system issues a warning using the
REV indicator light (and a buzzer if additionally select-
ed) when the engine speed reaches a level previously
set using the REV setting knob.
If you press the trip knob when the ignition switch is in
the “LOCK” position, the outside temperature indicator
will show the engine speed that has already been set.
NOTE
Even if the REV alarm system is not set, the REV
indicator light will come on whenever the engine speed enters the tachometer’s red zone. „
Setting the alarm-level engine speed
1. Turn the REV setting knob clockwise or counter-
clockwise, then release it and let it return to its initial
position. The buzzer will sound. The REV alarm sys-
tem is now ready to be set.
2. Turn the REV setting knob to select the desired
alarm-level engine speed.
At this time, the outside temperature indicator will
show the engine-speed setting. yCounterclockwise (–) for less than 0.5 second:
Speed setting changes downward by 100 rpm.

Clockwise (+) for less than 0.5 second: Speed
setting changes upward by 100 rpm. y Counterclockwise (–) for 0.5 second or longer:
Speed setting changes downward by 1,000 rpm.y Clockwise (+) for 0.5 second or longer: Speed
setting changes upward by 1,000 rpm.
The speed setting will stop changing if it reaches 0
rpm or the maximum engine speed.

The alarm-level engine speed can be set (in 100 rpm
steps) within a range from 2,000 to 7,500 rpm.
The indicator shows the setting as follows:
Approximately three seconds after you stop turning
the knob, the REV alarm system will automatically en-
ter its next setting mode (step 3 below), in which you
can activate or deactivate the buzzer.
3. Activate or deactivate the buzzer as desired using
the REV setting knob. yTurn the knob clockwise (+) to activate the buzz-
er. The indicator will show “ON”, and the buzzer will
sound three times. With the buzzer activated, en- gine-speed warnings are given by both the REV in-
dicator light and the buzzer.y
Turn the knob counterclockwise (–) to deactivate
the buzzer. The indicator will show “– –”, and the
buzzer will not sound. With the buzzer deactivated,
engine-speed warnings are given only by the REV
indicator light.
Approximately three seconds after you stop turning
the knob, the buzzer will sound once to indicate the
end of the setting procedure. The indicator will return
to showing the outside temperature.
Also, the tachometer needle will return to approxi- mately “0”.
NOTE y The REV alarm system does not operate while
settings are being entered. y The speed-setting mode terminates if 0 rpm is
selected. y The speed-setting mode is canceled if the igni-
tion switch is turned to OFF or the vehicle starts
moving before the setting procedure is finished.y Speed setting is impossible when the vehicle is
moving.y The set engine speed may differ from the engine
speed shown by the tachometer. Use the engine
speed shown by the tachometer as a rough guide.

1. Set the air inlet selection lever to the “ ” po-sition. 2. Set the air flow control dial to the “ ” position.
3. Set the temperature control dial to the most com-
fortable level.

air from the foot outlets is slightly warmer than from the
instrument panel outlets.

NOTE
With the fan speed control dial in the AUTO posi-
tion and the air flow control dial in the “ ”,
“ ”, or “ ” position, the fan does not oper-
ate during engine warmup until the engine coolant
temperature exceeds approx. 122 °F (50 °C).
„ Temperature control dial
This dial is used to set the desired interior tempera-
ture. With the dial set to your desired temperature, the
system automatically adjusts the temperature of air
supplied from the outlets such that the desired temper-
ature is achieved and maintained. If the dial is turned fully counterclockwise, the system
gives maximum cooling performance. If the dial is
turned fully clockwise, the system gives maximum
heating performance. „
Air flow control dial
This dial has the following six positions. The outlets
from which air is supplied in each position are as fol-
lows:AUTO: The air flow control is adjusted automatically in
accordance with the air temperature inside and out-
side the passenger compartment, the intensity of sun-
light, and other factors. SUBARU recommends using
