This meter displays the odometer and two
trip meters when the ignition switch is inthe “LOCK ”, “Acc ”or “ON ”position.
If you press the trip knob when the ignition
switch is in the “LOCK ”position, the
odometer/trip meter will light up. It is
possible to switch between the A trip
meter and B trip meter indications while
the odometer/trip meter is lit up. If you do
not press the trip knob within 10 seconds
of illumination of the odometer/trip meter, the odometer/trip meter will go off. !
Odometer
The odometer shows the total distance
that the vehicle has been driven. ! Double trip meter
The trip meter shows the distance that the
vehicle has been driven since you last set
it to zero.
To change the mode indication, briefly
push the knob.
Each press of the knob changes the
function alternately.
To set the trip meter to zero, select the A
trip or B trip meter by pushing the knob
and keep the knob pushed for more than 2 seconds.
CAUTION
To ensure safety, do not attempt to
change the function of the indicator
during driving, as an accident couldresult.
NOTE
If 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. & Tachometer
The 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. Instruments and controls

accordance with the outside temperature
and driving conditions.
We recommend that you drive moderately
until the pointer of the temperature gauge
reaches near the middle of the range.
Engine operation is optimum with the
engine coolant at this temperature range
and high revving operation when the
engine is not warmed up enough should
be avoided.
CAUTION
If the pointer exceeds the normal
operating range, safely stop the
vehicle as soon as possible.

Outside temperature indica- tor
1) U.S.-spec. models
2) Canada-spec. models
The outside temperature indicator shows
the outside temperature in a range from 22 to 122 8F( 30 to 50 8C).
The indicator can give a false reading
under any of the following conditions: . When there is too much sun.
. During idling; while running at low
speeds in a traffic jam; when the engine
is restarted immediately following a shut- down. . When the actual outside temperature
falls outside the specified indicator range. REV indicator light and buz-
zer (WRX-STI)The REV alarm system issues a warning
using the REV indicator light (and a
buzzer if additionally selected) when the
engine speed reaches a level previously

changes downward by 100 rpm. . Clockwise (+): Speed setting
changes upward by 100 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 the range from
2,000 rpm to 7,000 rpm.
The indicator shows the setting as follows:
Speed (rpm) Indication 00 0

Approximately 3 seconds after you stop
turning the knob, the REV alarm system
will automatically enter 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. .Turn the knob clockwise (+) to
activate the buzzer. The indicator willshow “ON ”, and the buzzer will sound three times. With the buzzer activated,
engine-speed warnings are given by
both the REV indicator light and the
buzzer. .
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 3 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 approximately “0 ”.

ever the low fuel warning light
comes on. Engine misfires as a
result of an empty tank could cause
damage to the engine.
& Temperature gauge
1) Normal operating range
The temperature gauge shows engine
coolant temperature when the ignition
switch is in the “ON ”position. The coolant temperature will vary in
accordance with the outside temperature
and driving conditions.
We recommend that you drive moderately
until the pointer of the temperature gauge
reaches near the middle of the range.

4-8Climate control
Automatic climate control
system (if equipped)
Although this climate control system can
be used as a full-automatic climate control
system, it can also, if desired, be used as
a semi-automatic climate control system.
When it is used as a full-automatic climate
control system, the outlet air temperature,
fan speed, air flow distribution, air inlet
control, and air conditioner compressor
operation are all automatically controlled
to maintain a constant, comfortable tem-
perature inside the vehicle. NOTE .Operate the automatic climate con-
trol system when the engine is running. . When the engine coolant is cold, the
blower does not run.. In the “AUTO ”mode, when the air
temperature in the passenger compart-
ment is sufficiently cool, the air condi-
tioner compressor does not operate.
For efficient defogging or dehumidify-
ing in cold weather, press the “A/C ”
button to operate the air conditioner
compressor.. Even when cooling is not necessary,
setting the temperature much lower
than the current outlet air temperature
turns on the air conditioner compres- sor automatically and the
“A/C ”indi-
cator light on the control panel comeson. & Control panel

2) Fan speed control dial
3) Temperature control dial
4) Air conditioner button
5) Air inlet selection button
6) Rear window defogger button (Refer to
the“Rear window defogger button ”sec-
tion in chapter 3.)
& To use as full-automatic cli-
mate control system
Place the temperature control dial in the
position for your desired temperature, then
set the other dials and buttons as de- scribed in the following. The system
’s
functions will then switch to AUTO mode
and be controlled automatically. . Air flow control dial: AUTO position
. Fan speed control dial: AUTO position
. Air inlet selection button: Press for at
least 1 second. (Indicator will flash twice.). Air conditioner button: Press for at least
1 second. (Indicator will flash twice.)
& To use as semi-automatic
climate control system
Each function can be individually set to
AUTO mode independently of the others.
Any function set to AUTO mode is con-
trolled automatically. Any function not set
to AUTO mode can be manually adjusted
as desired.
The temperature can be set within a range
of 65 to 85 8F (20 to 30 8C).

&Fan speed control dial
The fan operates only with the ignition
switch in the ON position. The fan speed
control dial is used to select the AUTO
(automatic control) mode or to select the
desired fan speed. The dial ’s positions
and their functions are as follows: OFF: The fan does not operate.
AUTO: The fan speed is adjusted auto-
maticallyinaccordancewiththeair
temperature inside and outside the pas-
senger compartment, the intensity of sun-
light, and other factors. SUBARU recom-
mends using the AUTO position.
Other positions: The fan speed can be
adjusted in 25 steps. NOTE
With the fan speed control dial in the
AUTO position and the air flow control
dial in the
“
”, “”,or “”position,
the fan does not operate during engine
warm-up until the engine coolant tem-
perature exceeds approx. 122 8F (50 8C).
& Temperature control dial
This dial is used to set the desired interior
temperature. With the dial set to your
desired temperature, the system automa-
tically adjusts the temperature of air
supplied from the outlets such that the
desired temperature is achieved andmaintained.
If the dial is turned fully counterclockwise,
the system gives maximum cooling per- formance. If the dial is turned fully clock-
wise, the system gives maximum heatingperformance. &
Air flow control dial
This dial has the following six positions.
The outlets from which air is supplied in
each position are as follows: AUTO: The air flow control is adjusted
automatically in accordance with the air
temperature inside and outside the pas-
senger compartment, the intensity of sun-
light, and other factors. SUBARU recom-
mends using the AUTO position.
