Meters and gauges (Non-tur-
bo models)NOTELiquid-crystal displays are used in
some of the meters and gauges in the
combination meter. You will find their
indications hard to see if you wear
polarized glasses.& Combination meter illumina-
tionWhen the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON ”position, the various parts of the
combination meter are illuminated in the
following sequence:
1. Combination meter dials light up.
2. Meter needles and gauge needles
each show MAX position.
3. Meter needles and gauge needles
each show MIN position.
4. Regular illumination (for driving) be-
gins.
& Canceling the function for
meter/gauge needle move-
ment upon turning on the
ignition switchIt is possible to activate or deactivate the
movement of the meter needles and
gauge needles that takes place when the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON ”
position.
Turn the ignition switch to the “ACC ”
position. With the A trip meter indication
selected, briefly press the trip knob twice.
You can now establish the activated/
deactivated setting for movement of the
meter needles and gauge needles. To
change the current setting, press the trip
knob for at least two seconds.
: Activated: Deactivated
Briefly press the knob to return to the A trip
meter indication.
If you turn the ignition switch to the
“LOCK ”position, turn the ignition switch
to the “ON”position, or open and close the
driver ’s door during the setting procedure,
the new setting will be canceled. Also, if
you do not press the trip knob for a period
of 10 seconds, the new setting will be
canceled.
NOTEIt is not possible to cancel sequential
illumination of the combination meter
while sequential illumination is actually
taking place. Cancel sequential illumi-

& OdometerThis meter displays the odometer when
the ignition switch is in the “LOCK”,“ACC”
or “ON ”position.
The odometer shows the total distance
that the vehicle has been driven.
If you press the trip knob when the ignition
switch is in the “LOCK ”position, the
odometer/trip meter will light 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.
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 go off.
& Double trip meterThis meter displays the two trip meters
when the ignition switch is in the “LOCK”,
“ACC ”or “ON ”position.
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 mode
indication 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.
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 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.
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 go off.
CAUTION
To ensure safety, do not attempt to
change the function of the indicator
during 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.

switch in the “ON”position and with the
parking brake fully released.
If the brake system warning light should
come on while driving (with the parking
brake fully released and with the ignition
switch positioned in “ON”), it could be an
indication of leaking of brake fluid or worn
brake pads. If this occurs, immediately
stop the vehicle at the nearest safe place
and check the brake fluid level. If the fluid
level is below the “MIN ”mark in the
reservoir, do not drive the vehicle. Have
the vehicle towed to the nearest SUBARU
dealer for repair.
! Electronic Brake Force Distribution
(EBD) system warning
The brake system warning light also
illuminates if a malfunction occurs in the
EBD system. In that event, it comes on
together with the ABS warning light.
The EBD system may be faulty if the
brake system warning light and ABS
warning light illuminate simultaneously
during driving.
Even if the EBD system fails, the conven-
tional braking system will still function.
However, the rear wheels will be more
prone to locking when the brakes are
applied harder than usual and the vehi-
cle ’s motion may therefore become some-
what harder to control. If the brake system warning light and ABS
warning light illuminate simultaneously,
take the following steps:
1. Stop the vehicle in the nearest safe,
flat place.
2. Shut down the engine, then restart it.
3. Release the parking brake. If both
warning lights go out, the EBD system
may be faulty.
Drive carefully to the nearest SUBARU
dealer and have the system inspected.
4. If both warning lights come on again
and stay illuminated after the engine has
been restarted, shut down the engine
again, apply the parking brake, and check
the brake fluid level.
5. If the brake fluid level is not below the
“MIN
”mark, the EBD system may be
faulty. Drive carefully to the nearest
SUBARU dealer and have the system
inspected.
6. If the brake fluid level is below the
“MIN ”mark, DO NOT drive the vehicle.
Instead, have the vehicle towed to the
nearest SUBARU dealer for repair.

Low fuel warning light
The low fuel warning light comes on when
the tank is nearly empty approximately 2.6
US gal (10.0 liters, or 2.2 Imp gal). It only
operates when the ignition switch is in the “ON
”position.
NOTEThis light does not go out unless the
tank is replenished up to an internal
fuel quantity of approximately 3.7 US
gal (14 liters, 3.1 Imp gal).
CAUTION
(Turbo model only) Promptly put
fuel in the tank whenever the low
fuel warning light comes on. Engine
misfires as a result of an empty tank
could cause damage to the engine.&
Door open warning
light
When any of the doors, the rear gate
(Station wagon) or the trunk lid (Sedan) is
not fully closed, the door warning light
comes on.
For non-turbo models, the open door is
indicated by the corresponding part of the
door warning light.
For turbo models, the opening door is
indicated on the multi-information display.
Always make sure this light is out before
you start to drive.

surface may be frozen.
If the outside temperature drops to 37 8F
(3 8C) or lower while the display is giving
an indication other than the outside
temperature, the display switches to the
outside temperature indication and flashes
for five seconds before returning to its
original indication.
If the display is already indicating an
outside temperature of 37 8F(3 8C) or lower
when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ ON ”position, the indication does not
flash.NOTEThe outside temperature indication
may differ from the actual outside
temperature. The road surface freeze

only as a guide. Be sure to check the
condition of the road surface before
driving.

Pressing the trip knob toggles the indica-
tion between the average fuel consump-
tion corresponding to the A trip meter
indication and the average fuel consump-
tion corresponding to the B trip meter
indication.
When either of the trip meter indications is
reset, the corresponding average fuel
consumption value is also reset.NOTE. The indicated values vary in accor-
dance with changes in the vehicle ’s
running conditions. Also, the indicated
values may differ slightly from the
actual values and should thus be
treated only as a guide.
. When either trip meter indication is
reset, the average fuel consumption
corresponding to that trip meter indica-
tion is not shown until the vehicle has
subsequently covered a distance of 1
mile (or 1 km).
& Driving range on remaining
fuelU.S.-spec. vehiclesCanada-spec. vehiclesThe driving range indicates the distance that can be driven taking into account the
amount of fuel remaining in the tank and
the average rate of fuel consumption.
When the low fuel warning light comes on,
the driving range indication flashes for five
seconds. (The display first switches to the
driving range indication if it was originally
giving some other indication.)
