Fuel
224need to add any fuel system cleaning
agents to your fuel tank.
Many gasolines are now blended with
materials called oxygenates. Use of these
fuels can also help keep the air cleaner.
Oxygenated blend fuels, such as ethanol
(ethyl or grain alcohol) may be used in
your vehicle, but should contain no more
than 15% ethanol for the proper operation
of your SUBARU.
Do not use any gasoline that contains
more than 15% ethanol, including from
any pump labeled E30, E50 or E85 (which
are only some examples of fuel containing
more than 15% ethanol).
In addition, some gasoline suppliers are
now producing reformulated gasolines,
which are designed to reduce vehicle
emissions. SUBARU approves the use of
reformulated gasoline.
If you are not sure what the fuel contains,
you should ask your service station oper-
ators if their gasolines contain detergents
and oxygenates and if they have been
reformulated to reduce vehicle emissions.
As additional guidance, only use fuels
suited for your vehicle as explained in the
following description.
Fuel should be unleaded and have an
octane rating no lower than that specified
in this manual. 
Methanol (methyl or wood alcohol) is
sometimes mixed with unleaded gasoline.
Methanol can be used in your vehicle
ONLY if it does not exceed 5% of the fuel
mixture AND if it is accompanied by suffi-
cient quantities of the proper cosolvent
and corrosion inhibitors required to
prevent damage to the fuel system. Do not
use fuel containing methanol EXCEPT
under these conditions.
 If undesirable driveability problems are
experienced and you suspect they may be
fuel related, try a different brand of gaso-
line before seeking service at your
SUBARU dealer.
 Fuel system damage or driveability
problems which result from the use of
improper fuel are not covered under the
SUBARU Limited Warranty.

that are posted at the service station.
1. Stop the vehicle, turn the ignition
switch to the “OFF” position and turn off all

2266. Stop filling the tank after the fuel filler
pump automatically stops. Do not add any
more fuel.
7. Put the cap back on and turn it clock-
wise until you hear a clicking noise. Be
certain not to catch the tether under the
cap while tightening.
8. Close the fuel filler lid completely.
NOTEYou will see the “ ” sign in the
fuel gauge. This indicates that the fuel
filler lid is located on the right side of
the vehicle.
 If the fuel filler cap is not tightened
until it clicks or if the tether is caught
under the cap, the CHECK ENGINE
warning light/malfunction indicator
light may illuminate. Refer to "CHECK
ENGINE Warning Light/Malfunction
Indicator Light" 
P136.
 To lock the fuel filler lid, perform one
of the operations below. However if
these operations are performed when
the fuel filler lid is open, the fuel filler
lid will not lock when it is subsequently
closed. - Press the “ ” button on the key
fob.
- Press the lock side of the power
door locking switch.
WARNING
When refueling, insert the fuel
nozzle securely into the fuel filler
pipe. If the nozzle is lifted or not
fully inserted, its automatic stop-
ping mechanism may not func-
tion, causing fuel to overflow the
tank and creating a fire hazard. Stop refueling when the auto-
matic stop mechanism on the fuel
nozzle activates. If you continue
to add fuel, temperature changes
or other conditions may cause
fuel to overflow from the tank and
create a fire hazard.
CAUTION
Make sure that the cap is tightened
until it clicks to prevent fuel spillage
in the event of an accident.
CAUTION
Do not let fuel sp ill on the exterior
surfaces of the vehicle. Because
fuel may damage th e paint, be sure
to wipe off any spilled fuel quickly.
Paint damage caused by spilled fuel
is not covered under the SUBARU
Limited Warranty.
CAUTION
 Never add any cleaning agents to
the fuel tank. Th e addition of a
cleaning agent may cause
damage to the fuel system. After refuelin g, turn the cap to the
right until it clicks to ensure that it
is fully tightened. If the cap is not
securely tightened, fuel may leak
out while the vehicle is being
driven or fuel spillage could
occur in the event of an accident,
creating a fire hazard. Do not let fuel spill on the exterior
surfaces of the vehicle. Because
fuel may damage the paint, be
sure to wipe off any spilled fuel
quickly. Paint damage caused by
spilled fuel is not covered under
the SUBARU Limited Warranty.Always use a genuine SUBARU
fuel filler cap. If you use the
wrong cap, it may not fit or have
proper venting and your fuel tank
and emission control system may
be damaged. It could also lead to
fuel spillage and a fire.
