Driving Tips8
– CONTINUED –
When parking for long periods in cold
weather, you should observe the following
tips.
1. For MT models, place the shift lever in
the “1” or “R” position. For AT models,
place the select lever in the “P” position.
2. Use tire stops under the tires to
prevent the vehicle from moving.
▼
Refueling in cold weather
To help prevent moisture from forming in
the fuel system and t he risk of its freezing,
use of an antifreeze additive in the fuel
tank is recommended during cold
weather.
Use only additives that are specifically
designed for this purpose. When an anti-
freeze additive is used, its effect lasts
longer if the tank is refilled whenever the
fuel level reaches half empty.
If your SUBARU is not going to be used for
an extended period, it is best to have the
fuel tank filled to capacity.
■
Driving on Snowy and Icy
Roads
To prevent skidding and slipping, avoid
sudden braking, abrupt acceleration, high-
speed driving, and sharp turning when
driving on snowy or icy roads.
Always maintain ample distance between
your vehicle and the vehicle ahead of you
to avoid the need for sudden braking.
To supplement the foot brake, use the
engine brake effectively to control the
vehicle speed. (Shift into a lower gear
when necessary.) Avoid shifting down abruptly. Such
behavior can cause the wheels to lock,
possibly leading to loss of vehicle control.
An anti-lock brake system (ABS)
enhances your vehicle’s braking perfor-
mance on snowy and icy roads. For infor-
mation about braking on slippery
surfaces, refer to "ABS (Anti-Lock Brake
System)"
P245 and "Vehicle Stability
Control (VSC)/TRAC System" P247.
For AT models, use the Snow mode when
driving on snowy or icy roads. For details
about how to use the mode, refer to
"Driving Mode Select Switch (If
Equipped)"  P241.
▼
Wiper operation when snowing
Before driving in cold weather, make sure
the wiper blade rubbers are not frozen to
the windshield.
If the wiper blade rubbers are frozen to the
windshield, use the defroster with the
airflow selection in “ ” and the tempera-
ture set for maximum warmth until the
wiper blade rubbers are completely
thawed. Refer to "Cli mate Control Panel"
 P198.
Snow stuck on the wiper arm prevents the
wiper from working effectively. If snow is
stuck on the wiper arm, pull off the road to
a safe place, then remove it. If you stop
the vehicle at road side, use the hazard
WARNING
Do not use the cruise control on
slippery roads such as snowy or icy
roads. This may cause loss of vehi-
cle control.
CAUTION
Avoid prolonged continuous driving
in snowstorms. Snow will enter the
engine’s intake system and may
hinder the airflow, which could
result in engine shutdown or even
breakdown.
