Main Owner’s Manual
Please note that this manual applies to all models and explains all equip-
ment, including options. Therefore, you may find some explanations for
equipment not installed on your vehicle.
All specifications provided in this manual are current at the time of printing.
However, because of the SUBARU policy of continual product improvement,
we reserve the right to make changes at any time without notice and without
incurring any obligation to make changes on vehicles previously sold.

from your vehicle in terms of color and equipment.
Noise from under vehicle after turning off the engine
Approximately five to ten hours after the engine is turned off, you may hear
sound coming from under the vehicle for several minutes. This is the sound
of a fuel evaporation leakage check and, it does not indicate a malfunction.
