Front differential gear oil
(CVT models) and rear differ-
ential gear oilIt is not necessary to check the gear oil
level. Check that there are no cracks,
damage or leakage. However, have the oil
inspected by your SUBARU dealer ac-
cording to the maintenance schedule in
the“Warranty and Maintenance Booklet”.
Consult your SUBARU dealer for details.&Recommended grade and
viscosityEach oil manufacturer has its own base
oils and additives. Never use different
brands together. For details, refer to
“Manual transmission, front differential
and rear differential gear oil”F12-6.
CAUTION
Using a differential gear oil other
than the specified oil may cause a
decline in vehicle performance.
Power steering fluid (STI)&Checking the fluid levelThe power steering fluid expands greatly
as its temperature rises; the fluid level
differs according to fluid temperature.
Therefore, the reservoir tank has two
different checking ranges for hot and cold
fluids.
Check the power steering fluid level
monthly.
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface, and
stop the engine.
2. Check the fluid level of the reservoir
tank.
When the fluid is hot after the vehicle has
been run: Check that the oil level is
between“HOT MIN”and“HOT MAX”onthe surface of the reservoir tank.
When the fluid is cool before the vehicle is
run: Check that the oil level is between
“COLD MIN”and“COLD MAX”on the
surface of the reservoir tank.
3. If the fluid level is lower than the
applicable“MIN”line, add the recom-
mended fluid as necessary to bring the
level between the“MIN”and“MAX”line.
If the fluid level is extremely low, it may
indicate possible leakage. Consult your
SUBARU dealer for an inspection.
WARNING
Be careful not to burn yourself
because the fluid may be hot.
CAUTION
.When you add power steering
fluid, use only clean fluid, and
be careful not to allow any dirt
into the tank. And never use
different brands together.
.Be careful not to spill power
steering fluid when adding it. If
power steering fluid touches the
exhaust pipe, it may cause a bad
smell, smoke, and/or a fire. If
power steering fluid gets on the
