Except for U.S. and Canada models
Some items of your vehicle are required to

details about your maintenance schedule,
read the separate “Warranty and Mainte-
nance Booklet”.
11-2. Maintenance Precau -tionsWhen maintenance and service are
required, it is reco mmended that all work
be done by an authorized SUBARU
dealer.
If you perform maintenance and service
by yourself, you should familiarize your-
self with the information provided in this
section on general maintenance and
service for your SUBARU.
Incorrect or incomplete service could
cause improper or unsafe vehicle opera-
tion. Any problems caused by improper
maintenance and service performed by
you are not eligible for warranty coverage.
WARNING
 Always select a safe area when
performing maintenance on your
vehicle. Always be very careful to avoid
injury when working on the
vehicle. Remember that some of
the materials in the vehicle may
be hazardous if improperly used
or handled, for example, battery
acid.
 Your vehicle should only be
serviced by persons fully compe-
tent to do so. Serious personal
injury may result to persons not
experienced in servicing vehi-
cles. Always use the proper tools and
make certain that they are well
maintained. Never get under the vehicle
supported only by a jack. Always
use safety stands to support the
vehicle. Never keep the engine running in
a poorly ventilated area, such as a
garage or other closed areas. Do not smoke or allow open
flames around the fuel or battery.
This will cause a fire. Because the fuel system is under
pressure, replacement of the fuel
filter should be performed only by
your SUBARU dealer. Wear adequate eye protection to
guard against getting oil or fluids
in your eyes. If something does
get in your eyes, thoroughly wash
them out with clean water.

Cooling System
348■Synthetic OilYou should use synthetic engine oil that
meets the same requirements given for
conventional engine oil. When using
synthetic oil, you must use oil of the same
classification, viscosity and grade shown
in this Owner’s Manual. Refer to "Engine
Oil" P381. Also, you must follow the oil
and filter changing intervals shown in the
Warranty and Maintenance booklet.NOTESynthetic oil of the grade and viscosity
noted in chapter 12 is the recom-
mended engine oil for optimum engine
performance. Conventional oil may be
used if synthetic oil is unavailable.
11-7. Cooling System
■ Cooling Fan, Hose and
ConnectionsYour vehicle employs an electric cooling
fan which is thermost atically controlled to
operate when the engine coolant reaches
a specific temperature.
If the radiator cooling fan does not operate
even when the engine coolant tempera-
ture gauge exceeds the normal operating
range, the cooling fan circuit may be
defective. Refer to "Engine Coolant
Temperature Gauge"  P129.
WARNING
Never remove the radiator cap until
the engine has been shut off and
has cooled down completely. Since
the coolant is under pressure, you
may suffer serious burns from a
spray of boiling hot coolant when
the cap is removed.
CAUTION
 Vehicles are filled at the factory
with SUBARU SUPER COOLANT
that does not require the first
change for 11 years/137,500 miles
(11 years/220,000 km). This
coolant should not be mixed with
any other brand or type of coolant
during this period. Mixing with a
different coolant will reduce the
life of the coolant. When neces-
sary to top off the coolant for any
reason, use only SUBARU
SUPER COOLANT.
If the SUBARU SUPER COOLANT
is diluted with another brand or
type, the maintenance interval is
shortened to that of the mixing
coolant.
 Do not splash the engine coolant
over painted parts. The alcohol
contained in the engine coolant
may damage the paint surface.
