Location of Spare Tire and Jack
A jack and other maintenance tools are stored in the tool bucket in the center of the
spare tire, located in the trunk or cargo area. Raise the center lid and remove the bucket
from the center of the spare tire. Take the jack out of the bucket. The jack handle is
stowed on the back of the center lid of the cargo area.
Towing Your All-Wheel Drive Vehicle
Since all-wheel drive distributes engine power to all four wheels, improper
towing will severely damage your AWD system. A flatbed truck is the only
recommended way to properly transport your AWD vehicle. If towing is
necessary, it is best done by your Subaru dealer or a commercial towing service.

Assistance is available anytime during the 3-year/36,000-mile Subaru Lim\
ited
Warranty, whichever comes first.* A Subaru Roadside Assistance decal has
