Driving Tips8
– CONTINUED –
Remember to drive with care at all times
regardless of the type of tires on your
vehicle.■
Tire Chains
NOTE
When tire chains cannot be used, use
of another type of traction device
(such as spring chains) may be
acceptable if use on your vehicle is
recommended by the device manufac-
turer, taking into account tire size and
road conditions. Follow the device
manufacturer’s instructions, espe-
cially regarding maximum vehicle
speed.
To help avoid damage to your vehicle,
drive slowly, readjust or remove the
device if it is contacting your vehicle,
and do not spin your wheels. Damage
caused to your vehicle by use of a
traction device is not covered under
warranty.
Make certain that any traction device
you use is an SAE class S device, and use it on the rear wheels only. Always
use the utmost care when driving with
a traction device. Overconfidence
because you are using a traction
device could easily lead to a serious
accident.
■
Rocking the Vehicle
If you must rock the v
ehicle to free it from
snow, sand, or mud, depress the acceler-
ator pedal slightly and move the shift
lever/select lever back and forth between
“1” (MT model)/“D” (AT model) and “R”
repeatedly. Do not race the engine. For
the best possible traction, avoid spinning
the wheels when trying to free the vehicle.
When the road surface is extremely slip-
pery, you can obtain better traction by
starting the vehicle with the transmission
in 2nd than in 1st (MT models).
If your vehicle is a AT model, Snow mode
can be used. For details about how to use
the mode, refer to "Driving Mode Select
Switch (If Equipped)" P241.
8-9. Loading Your Vehicle
CAUTION
Tire chains cannot be used on your
vehicle because of the lack of clear-
ance between the tires and vehicle
body.
WARNING
Never allow passengers to ride on a
folded rear seatback or in the trunk.
Doing so may result in serious
injury.
WARNING
 Never stack luggage or other
cargo higher than the top of the
seatback because it could tumble
forward and injure passengers in
the event of a sudden stop or
accident. Keep luggage or cargo
low, as close to the floor as
possible.

NOTEContact a SUBARU dealer when jack-
ing up the vehicle using a garage jack.
1. Park on a hard, level surface, when-
ever possible, then stop the engine.
2. Set the parking brake securely and
shift the shift lever in reverse (MT models)
or the select lever to the “P” (Park) posi-
tion (AT models).
3. Turn on the hazard warning flasher
and unload all occupants and luggage
from the vehicle.
4. Put wheel blocks at the front and rear
of the tire diagonally opposite the flat tire.5. Take out the jack, jack handle and
wheel nut wrench.
The tools and the spare tire are stored
under the floor of the trunk. Refer to
"Maintenance Tools"
P302.
NOTEMake sure that the jack is well lubri-
cated before using it.
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.

To Restart the Engine When
Involved in an Accident
Your vehicle has a fuel pump shut off
system. When the vehicle sustains an
impact in an accident, etc., the fuel pump
shut off system stops supplying the fuel in
order to minimize fuel leakage.
However, depending on the impact condi-
tions at the time of collision, the fuel pump
shut-off system may not operate.

■
When Checking or Servicing
in the Engine Compartment
Do not tamper wi th the wiring of
the SRS airbag system or seatbelt
pretensioner system, or attempt
to take its connectors apart, as
that may activate the system or it
can render it inoperative. NEVER
use a circuit tester for these
wiring. If your SRS airbag or
seatbelt pretensioner needs
service, consult your nearest
SUBARU dealer. Check the inside of the engine
compartment to see if there are
any cloths and tools left. If they
are left inside, they may be a
cause of malfunction and fire.
WARNING
Always stop the engine and apply
the parking brake to prevent the
vehicle from moving.Always let the engine cool down.
Engine parts become very hot
when the engine is running and
remain hot for some time after the
engine is stopped.Do not spill engine oil, engine
coolant, brake fluid or any other
fluid on hot engine components.
This may cause a fire.When the ignition switch is in the
“ON” position, the cooling fan
may operate suddenly even when
the engine is stopped. If your
body or clothes come into
contact with a rotating fan, that
could result in serious injury. To
avoid risk of injury, always turn
the push-button i gnition switch to
the “OFF” position and confirm
that the operation indicator on
the switch is turn ed off. Then take
the access key fob out from the
vehicle.
 Before performing any servicing
on a vehicle equipped with a
remote engine start system
temporarily place that system in
the service mode to prevent it
from unexpectedly starting the
engine.
