Winter Driving
296warning flasher to alert other drivers.
Refer to "Hazard Warning Flasher"
P127.
We recommend use of non-freezing type
wiper blades (winter blades) during the
seasons you could have snow and
freezing temperatures. Blades of this type
give superior wiping performance in
snowy conditions. Be sure to use blades
that are suitable for your vehicle.NOTEWhen the season requiring non-freez-
ing type wiper blades is over, replace
them with standard wiper blades.■
Corrosion Protection
Refer to "Corrosion Protection" P334.
■
Snow Tires
In winter, it may be possible to enhance
performance through use of tires
designed specifically for winter driving
conditions.
If you choose to install winter tires on your
vehicle, be sure to use the correct tire size
and type.
You must install four winter tires that are of
the same size, construction, brand and
load range and you should never mix
radial, belted bias or bias tires since this
may result in dangerous handling charac-
teristics. When you choose a tire, make
sure that there is enough clearance
between the tire and vehicle body.
CAUTION
During high-speed driving, non-
freezing type wiper blades may not
perform as well as standard wiper
blades. If this happens, reduce the
vehicle speed.
WARNING
 When replacing or installing
winter tire(s), all four tires must
be the same for the following
items.
(a) Size(b) Speed symbol(c) Load index(d) Circumference(e) Construction(f) Manufacturer(g) Brand (tread pattern)(h) Degrees of wearFor items (a) to (c), you must
obey the specification that is
printed on the tire inflation pres-
sure label. The ti re inflation pres-
sure label is located on the
driver’s center pillar.If all four tires are not the same in
items (a) to (h), serious mechani-
cal damage could be caused to
the drivetrain of the car, and
affect the followings.
- Ride- Handling- Braking- Speedometer/Odometer cali-
bration- Clearance between the bodyand the tires
It also may be dangerous and
lead to loss of vehicle control,
and it can lead to an accident.
 Do not use a combination of
radial, belted bias or bias tires
since it may cause dangerous
handling characteristics and lead
to an accident.

6. Models with spare tire: Take out the
under-floor storage compartment and turn
the attaching bolt counterclockwise, then
take the spare tire out.
 Always turn off the engine before
raising the flat tire off the ground
using the jack. Never swing or
push the vehicle supported with
the jack. The jack can come out of
the jacking point due to a jolt and
this can result in serious injury or
death. All passengers must exit the
vehicle before you raise it with
the jack. Raising the vehicle with
someone inside of it could result
in serious injury or death.Do not start the vehicle while it is
supported by the jack. Doing so
could result in serious injury or
death.
CAUTION
Do not hit and bend the disc rotor
backing plate when removing and
installing the tire. A bent backing
plate may scrape against the disc
rotor and cause noise while the
vehicle is in motion.

In Case of Emergency9
– CONTINUED –
If the tire is punctured, you can seal the
flat tire temporarily by using the flat tire
repair kit. You can seal a flat tire caused,
for example, by nails or similar objects
with less than 0.2 in (4 mm). However,
depending on the type and extent of tire
damage, some tires can only be partially
sealed or not sealed at all, and this condi-
tion may cause a loss of tire pressure. A
loss of tire pressure can affect vehicle
handling, leading to the loss of vehicle
control.
After sealing the flat tire temporarily,
change the tires with new ones as soon as
possible. We recommend that you have
the sealed tire changed by your nearest
SUBARU dealer. You may reuse the
wheel if the attached sealant is wiped off,
but the valve of the wheel must be
replaced with a new one. If you reuse the
wheel without replacing the valve, air may
leak from the valve. For tire replacement, refer to "Tire
Replacement" 
P365.
