New vehicle break-in driving

– the first 1,000 miles (1,600

km)

The performance and long life of your

vehicle are dependent on how you handle

and care for your vehicle while it is new.

Follow these instructions during the first

1,000 miles (1,600 km):

. Do not race the engine. And do not

allow engine speed to exceed 4,000 rpm

except in an emergency.

. Do not drive at one constant engine or

vehicle speed for a long time, either fast or

slow.

. Avoid starting suddenly and rapid

acceleration, except in an emergency.

. Avoid ha rd brakin g, except in an

emergency.

The same break-in procedures should be

applied to a newly installed or overhauled

engine or when brake pads or brake

linings are replaced with new ones.

Fuel economy hints

The following suggestions will help to save

your fuel.

. Select the proper gear position for the

speed and road conditions.

. Avoid sudden acceleration or decelera-

tion. Always accelerate gently until you

reach the desired speed. Then try to

maintain that speed for as long a s

possible.

. Do not pump the accelerator and avoid

racing the engine.

. Avoid unnecessary engine idling.

. Keep the engine properly tuned.

. Keep the tires inflated to the correct

pressure shown on the tire placard, which

is located under the door latch on the

driver’s side. Low pressure will increase

tire wear and fuel consumption.

. Use the air condition er only when

necessary.

. Keep the front and rear wheels in

proper alignment.

. Avoid carrying unnecessary luggage or

cargo.

. The i ndication of the ECO gauge

shows a reference for saving fuel. For

details, refer to “ECO gauge” F3-11.

Engine exhaust gas (carbon

monoxide)

WARNING

. Never inhale engine exhaust gas.

Engine exhaust gas contains

carbon monoxide, a colorless

and odorless gas which is dan-

gerous, or even lethal, if inhaled.

. Always properly maintain the en-

gine exhaust system to prevent

engine exhaust gas from enter-

ing the vehicle.

. Never run the engine in a closed

space, such as a garage, except

for the brief time needed to drive

the vehicle in or out of it.

. Avoid remaining in a parked

vehicle for a long time while the

engine is running. If that is

unavoidable, then use the venti-

lation fan to force fresh air into

the vehicle.

. Always keep the front ventilator

inlet grille free from snow, leaves

or other obstructions to ensure

that the ventilation system al-

ways works properly.

. If at any time you suspect that

exhaust fumes are entering the

vehi cle, have t h e pr o blem

checked and corrected as soon

as possible. If you must drive

under these conditions, drive

only with all windows fully open.

. Keep the trunk lid (Legacy) or

rear gate (Outback) closed while

driving to prevent exhaust gas

from entering the vehicle.

NOTE

Due to the expansion and contraction

of the metals used in the manufacture

of the exhaust system, you may hear a

crackling sound coming from the ex-

haust system for a short time after the

engine has been shut off. This sound is

normal.

Catalytic converter

WARNING

. Avoid fire hazards. Do not drive

or park the vehicle anywhere

near flammable mater ial s (e.g.

grass, paper, rags or leaves),

because the catalytic converter

operates at very high tempera-

tures.

. Ke ep everyone and flammable

materials away from the exhaust

pipe while the engine is running.

The exhaust gas is very hot.

2.5 L models

3.6 L models

The catalytic converter is installed in the

exhaust system. It serves as catalyst to

reduce HC, CO and NOx in exhaust

gases, thus providing cleaner exhaust.

To avoid damage to the catalytic conver-

ter:

. Use only unleaded gasoline. Even a

small am ount of l eaded gasoline will

damage the catalytic converter.

. Never start the engine by pushing or

pulling the vehicle.

. Avoid racing the engine.

. Never turn off the ignition switch while

the vehicle is moving.

. Keep your engine tuned-up. If you feel

the engine running rough (misfiring, back-

firing or incomplete combustion), have

your vehicle checked and repaired by an

authorized SUBARU dealer.

. Do not apply undercoa ting or rust

prevention treatment to the heat shield of

catalytic converter and the exhaust sys-

tem.

. Do not drive with an extremely low fuel

level.

Periodic inspections

To keep your vehicle in the best condition

at all times, always have the recom-

mended maintenance services listed in

the maintenance schedule in the “War-

ranty and Maintenance Booklet” per-

formed at the specified time or mileage

intervals.

Driving in foreign countries

When planning to use your vehicle in

another country:

. Confirm the availability of the correct

fuel. Refer to “Fuel requirements” F7-3.

. Comply with all regulations and re-

quirements of each country.

Driving tips for AWD vehicles

WARNING

. Always maintain a safe driving

speed according to the road and

weather conditions in order to

avoid having an accident on a

sharp turn, during sudden brak-

ing or under other similar condi-

tions.

. Always use the utmost care in

driving – overconfidence b e-

cause you are driving an All-

Wheel Drive vehicle could easily

lead to a serious accident.

. When replacing a tire, you must

use a tire that is of the same size,

circumference, construction,

brand (tread pattern), speed sym-

bol and load index as the original

tires listed on the tire placard.

Using tires of other sizes, cir-

cumfe rences or constructions

may result in severe mechanical

damage to the drive train of your

vehicle and may affect ride,

handling, braking, speedometer/

odometer calibration, and clear-

ance between the body and tires.

It also may be dangerous and

lead to loss of vehicle control.

. You must install four tires that are

of the same size, circumferences,

construction, manufacturer,

brand (tread pattern), degree of

wear, speed symbol and load

index. Mixing tires of other sizes,

circumferences or constructions

may result in severe mechanical

damage to the drive train of your

vehicle and may affect ride,

handling, braking and speed-

ometer/odometer calibration. It

also may be dangerous and lead

to loss of vehicle control.

CAUTION

If you use a temporary spare tire to

replace a flat tire, be sure to use the

original temporary spare tire stored

in the vehicle. Using other sizes may

result in severe mechanical damage

to the drive train of your vehicle.

All-Wheel Drive distributes the engine

power to all four wheels. AWD vehicles

provide better traction when driving on

slippery, wet or snow-covered roads and

when moving out of mud, dirt and sand.

By shifting power between the front and

rear wheels, SUBARU AWD can also

provide added traction during accelera-

tion, and added engine braking force

during deceleration.

Therefore, your SUBARU AWD vehicle

may handle differently than an ordinary

two wheel drive vehicle and it contains

some features unique to AWD. For safety

purposes as well as to avoid damaging

the AWD system, you should keep the

following tips in mind:

. An AWD vehicle is better able to climb

steeper roads under snowy or slippery

Driving tips 8-5

conditions than a two wheel drive vehicle.

There i s little difference in handling,

however, during extremely sharp turns or

sudden braking. Therefore, when driving

down a slope or turning corners, be sure

to reduce your speed and maintain an

ample distance from other vehicles.

. Always check the cold tire pressure

be fore starting to drive. The recom-

mended tire pressure is provided on the

tire placard, which is located on the door

pillar on the driver’s side.

. There are some precautions that you

must observe when towing your vehicle.

For detailed information, refer to “Towing”

F9-14.

Off road driving

WARNING

. Always maintain a safe driving

speed according to the road and

weather conditions in order to

avoid having an accident on a

sharp turn, during sudden brak-

ing or under other similar condi-

tions.

. Always use the utmost care in

driving – overconfidence be-

cause you are driving an All-

Wheel Drive vehicle could easily

lead to a serious accident.

& Legacy

Your AWD vehicle is neither a conven-

tional off-road vehicle nor an all terrain

vehicle. It is a passenger car designed

primarily for on-road use. The AWD

featur e gives it some limited off-roa d

capabilities in situations in which the

driving surface is relatively level, obstruc-

tion-free and otherwise similar to on-road

driving conditions. Operating it under other

than those conditions could subject the

vehicle to excessive stress which might

result in damage not eligible for repair

under warranty. If you do take your

SUBARU off road, you should review the

common sense precautions in the next

section (applicable to the Outback) for

genera l guidance . But please keep in

mind that your vehicle’s off-road capabil-

ities are more limited than those of the

Outback.

Never attempt to drive through pools and

puddles, or roads flooded wi th water.

Water entering the engine air intake or

the exhaust pipe or water splashing onto

electrical parts may damage your vehicle

and may cause it to stall.

& Outback

Because of the AWD feature and higher

ground clearance, your SUBARU can be

driven on ordinary roads or off-road. But

please keep in mind that an AWD

SUBARU is a passenger car and is

neither a conventional off-road vehicle

nor an all-terrain vehicle. If you do take

your SUBARU off-road, certain common

sense precautions such as those in the

following list should be taken:

. Make certain that you and all of your

passengers are wearing seatbelts.

. Carry some emergency equipment,

such as a towing rope or chain, a shovel,

wheel blocks, first aid kit and cell phone or

citizens band radio.

. Drive carefully. Do not take unneces-

sary risks by driving in dangerous areas or

over rough terrain.

. Slow down and employ extra caution at

all times. When driving off-road, you will

not have the benefit of marked traffic

lanes, banked curves, traffic signs and

the like.

. Do not drive across steep slopes.

Instead, drive either straight up or straight

down the slopes. A vehicle can much

more easily tip over sideways than it can

end over end. Avoid driving straight up or

down slopes that are too steep.

. Avoid sharp turning maneuvers, espe-

cially at higher speeds.

. Do not grip the inside or spokes of the

steering wheel. A bad bump could jerk the

wheel and injure your hands. Instead drive

with your fingers and thumbs on the

outside of the rim.

. If driving through water, such as when

crossing shallow streams, first check the

depth of the water and the bottom of the

stream bed for firmness and ensure that

the bed of the stream is flat. Drive slowly

and completely through the stream. The

water should be shallow enough that it

does not reach the vehicle’s undercar-

riage. Water entering the engine air intake

or the exhaust pipe or water splashing

onto electrical parts may damage your

vehicle and may cause it to stall. Never

attempt to drive through rushing water;

regardless of its depth, it can wash away

the ground from under your tires, resulting

in possible loss of traction and eve n

vehicle rollover.

. Always check your brakes for effec-

tiveness immediately after driving in sand,

mud or water. Do this by driving slowly

and stepping on the brake pedal. Repeat

that process several times to dry out the

brake discs and brake pads.

. Do not drive or park over or near

flammable materials such as dry grass or

fallen leaves, as they may burn easily. The

exhaust system is very hot while the

en gine is running and right after the

engine stops. This could create a fire

hazard.

. After driving through tall grass, mud,

rocks, sand, rivers, etc., check that there

is no grass, bush, paper, rags, stones,

sand, etc. adhering to or trapped on the

underbody. Clear off any such matter from

the underbody. If the vehicle is used with

these materials trapped or adhering to the

underbody, a mechanical breakdown or

fire could occur.

. Secure all cargo carried inside the

vehicle and make certain that it is not

piled higher than the seatbacks. During

sudden stops or jolts, unsecured cargo

could be thrown around in the vehicle and

cause injury. Do not pile heavy loads on

the roof. Those loads raise the vehicle’s

center of gravity and make it more prone

to tip over.

. If you must rock the vehicle to free it

from sand or mud, depress the accelerator

pedal slightly and move the shift lever/

select lever back and forth between “1”/

“D” 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

slippery, you can obtain better traction by

starting the vehicle with the transmission

in 2nd than 1st (both for MT, AT and CVT).

For AT and CVT models, refer to “Selec-

tion of manual mode” F7-25.

. Never equip your vehicle with tires

larger than those specified in this manual.

. Wash the vehicle’s underbody after off-

road driving. Suspension components are

particularly prone to dirt buildup, so they

need to be washed thoroughly.

. Frequent driving of an AWD vehicle

under hard-driving conditions such as

rough roads or off roads will necessitate

more frequent replacement of engine oil,

brake fluid and transmission oil than that

specified in the maintenance schedule

described in the “Warranty and Mainte-

Driving tips 8-7

nance Booklet”.

Remember that damage done to your

SUBARU while operating it off-road and

no t using common sense precautions

such as those listed above is not eligible

for warranty coverage.

Winter driving

& Operation during cold

weather

Carry some emergency equipment, such

as a window scraper, a bag of sand,

flares, a small shovel and jumper cables.

Check the battery and c ables . Cold

temperatures reduc e battery capacity.

The battery must be in good condition to

provide enough power for cold winter

starts.

It normally takes longer to start the engine

in very cold weather conditions. Use an

engine oil of a proper grade and viscosity

for cold weather. Using heavy summer oil

will make it harder to start the engine.

Keep the door locks from freezing by

squirting them with deicer or glycerin.

Forcing a frozen door open may damage

or separate the rubber weather strips

around the door. If the door is frozen,

use hot water to melt the ice, and after-

wards thoroughly wipe the water away.

Use a windshield washer fluid that con-

tains an antifreeze solution. Do not use

engine antifreeze or othe r substitutes

because they may damage the paint of

the vehicle.

SUBARU Windshield Washer Fluid con-

tains 58.5% methyl alcohol and 41.5%

surfactant, by volume. Its freezing tem-

perature varies according to how much it

is diluted, as indicated in the following

table.

Washer Fluid Con-

centration

Freezing Temperature

30% 10.48F (−128C)

50% −48F (−208C)

100%

−498F (−458C)

In order to prevent freezing of washer

fluid, check the freezing temperatures in

the table above when adjusting the fluid

concentration to the outside temperature.

If you fill the reservoir tank with a fluid with

a different concentration from the one

used previously, purge the old fluid from

the piping between the reservoir tank and

washer nozzles by operating the washer

for a certain period of time. Otherwise, if

the concentration of the fluid remaining in

the piping is too lo w for the outs ide

temperature, it may freeze and block the

nozzles.

CAUTION

. Adjust the washer fluid concen-

tration appropriately for the out-

side temperature. If the concen-

tration is inappropriate, sprayed

washer fluid may freeze on the

winds hield and obstruct your

view, and the fluid may freeze in

the reservoir tank.

. State or local regulations on

volatile organic compounds may

restrict the use of methanol, a

common windshield washer anti-

freeze add itive. Washer flu ids

containing non-methano l anti-

freeze agents sh ould be used

only if they provide cold weather

protection without damaging

your vehicle’s paint, wiper blades

or washer system.

! Before driving your vehicle

Before entering the vehicle, remove any

snow or ice from your shoes because that

could make the pedals slippery and

driving dangerous.

Wh ile warming up the vehicl e before

driving, check that the accelerator pedal,

brake pedal, and all other controls operate

smoothly.

Clear away ice and snow that has

accumulated under the fenders to avoid

making steering difficult. During severe

winter driving, stop when and where it is

safe to do so and check under the fenders

periodically.

! Parking in cold weather

WARNING

Snow can trap dangerous exhaust

gases under your vehicle. Keep

snow clear of the exhaust pipe and

from around your vehicle if you park

the vehicle in snow with the engine

running.

Do not us e the parking brak e when

parking for long periods in cold weather

since it could freeze in that position.

Instead, you should observe the following

tips.

1. Place the shift lever in “1” or “R” for MT

models, or the select lever in “P” for AT

models and CVT models.

2. Use tire stops under the tires t o

prevent the vehicle from moving.

When the vehicle is parked in snow or

when it snows, raise the wiper blades off

the glass to prevent damage to them.

When the vehicle has been left parked

after use on roads heavily covered with

snow, or has been left parked during a

snowstorm, icing may develop on the

brake system, which could cause poor

braking action. Check for snow or ice

buildup on the suspension, disc brakes

and brake hoses underneath the vehicle.

If there is caked snow or ice, remove it,

being careful not to damage the disc

brakes and brake hoses and ABS har-

ness.

! Refueling in cold weather

To help prevent moisture from forming in

the fuel system and the 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

antifreeze additive is used, its effect lasts

longer if the tank is refilled whenever the

fuel level reaches half empty.

Driving tips 8-9

– CONTINUED –

8-10 Driving tips

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

WARNING

Do not use the cruise control on

slippery roads such as snowy or icy

roads. This may cause loss of

vehicle control.

CAUTION

Avoid prolonged continuous driving

in snowstorms. Snow will enter the

en gine’s intake syste m and may

hinder the airflow, which could re-

sult in engine shutdown or even

breakdown.

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 beha-

vior can cause the wheels to lock, possibly

leading to loss of vehicle control.

An anti-lock br ake system (ABS) en-

hances your vehicle’s braking perfor-

mance on snowy and icy roads. For

information about braking on slippery

surfaces, refer to “ABS (Anti-lock Brake

System)” F7-29 and “Vehicle Dynamics

Control system” F7-31.

! Wiper operation when snowing

Before driving in cold weather, make sure

the wiper blades are not frozen to the

windshield or rear window.

If the wiper blades are frozen to the

windshield or rear window, perform the

following procedure.

. To thaw the windshield wiper blades,

use the defroster with the airflow selection

i n “

” and the temperature set for

maximum warmth until the wiper blades

are completely thawed. Refer to “Climate

control” F4-1.

. If your vehicle is equipped with a wiper

deicer, use it. It is helpful to thaw the

windshield wiper blades. Refer to “Defog-

ger and deicer” F3-49.

. To thaw the rear wiper blade, use the

rear window defogger. Refer to “Defogger

and deicer” F3-49.

When driving in snow, if frozen snow starts

to stick on the surface of the windshield

despite wiper operation, use the defroster

with the airflow selection in “

” and the

temperature set for maximum warmth.

After the windshield gets warmed enough

to melt the frozen snow on it, wash it away

using the windshield washer. Refer to

“Windshield washer” F3-47.

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

warni ng flashe r to alert other drivers.

Refer to “Hazard warning flasher” F3-7.

We recommend use of non-freezing type

wiper blades (winter blades) during the

seasons you could have snow and freez-

ing temperatures. Blades of this type give

superior wiping performance in snowy

conditions. Be sure to use blades that

are suitable for your vehicle.

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.

NOTE

When the season requiring non-freez-

ing type wiper blades is over, replace

them with standard wiper blades.

& Corrosion protection

Refer to “Corrosion protection” F10-4.

& Snow tires

WARNING

. When replacing original tires with

winter (snow) tires, make sure

you use only tires of the same

size, circumference, construc-

tion, brand (tread pattern), speed

symbol and load index as the

original tires listed on the tire

placard. Using tires of other sizes

a nd constructio ns may affect

speedometer/odometer calibra-

tion and clearance between the

body and tires. It also may be

dangerous and lead to loss of

vehicle control.

. You must install four winter tires

that are of the same size, circum-

ference, construction, manufac-

turer, brand (tread pattern), de-

gree of wear, speed symbol and

load index. Mixing tires of other

sizes or constructions may result

in severe mechanical damage to

the drive train of your vehicle and

may affect ride, handling, braking

and speedometer/odometer cali-

bration. It also may be dangerous

and lead to loss of vehicle con-

trol.

. Do not use a combination of

radial, belted bias or bias tires

since it may cause dangerous

handling characteristics and lead

to an accident.

Your vehicle is equipped with “all season

tires” which are designed to provide an

adequate measure of traction, handling

and braking performance in year-round

driving. 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 hand-

ling characteristics. When you choose a

tire, make sure that there is e nough

clearance between the tire and vehicle

body.

Remember to drive with care at all times

regardless of the type of tires on your

vehicle.

& Tire chains

CAUTION

Tire chains cannot be used on your

vehicle because of the lack of

clearance between the tires and

vehicle body.

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 manufacturer, taking into

account tire size and road conditions.

Follow the device manufacturer’s in-

structions, especially regarding max-

imum 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 front wheels only. Always

use the utmost care when driving with

a traction device. Overconfidence be-

cause you are using a traction device

could easily lead to a serious accident.

& Rocking the vehicle

If you must rock the vehicle to free it from

snow, sand, or mud, depress the accel-

erator pedal slightly and move the shift

lever/select lever back and forth between

“1”/“D” 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

slippery, you can obtain better traction by

starting the vehicle with the transmission

in 2nd than 1st (for MT, AT and CVT).

For information on holding the transmis-

sion in 2nd position, refer to “Selection of

manual mode” F7-25.

Loading your vehicle

WARNING

Never allow passengers to ride on a

folded rear seatback, in the trunk or

in the cargo area. Doing so may

result in serious injury.

WARNING

. Never s tack 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.

. When you carry something inside

the vehicle, secure it whenever

you can to prevent it from being

thrown around inside the vehicle

during sudden stops, sharp turns

or in an accident.

. Do not pile heavy loads on the

roof. These loads raise the vehi-

cle’s center of gravity and make it

more prone to tip over.

. Secure long items pr operly to

prevent them from shooting for-

ward and causing serious injury

during a sudden stop.

. Never exceed the maximum load

limit. If you do, some parts on

your vehicle can break, or it can

change the way your vehicle

handles. This could result in loss

of control and cause personal

injury. Also, overloading can

shorten the life of your vehicle.

. Do not place anything on the rear

shelf behind the rear seatback

(Legacy) or the extended cargo

area cover (Outback). Such items

could tumble forward in the event

of a sudden stop or a collision.

This could cause serious injury.

CAUTION

Do not carry spray cans, containers

with flammable or corrosive liquids

or any other dangerous items inside

the vehicle.

NOTE

For better fuel economy, do not carry

unneeded cargo.

& Vehicle capacity weight

The load cap acity of your vehicle is

determined by weight, not by available

cargo space. The maximum load you can

carry in your vehicle is shown on the

vehicle placard attached to the driver’s

side door pillar. It includes the total weight

of the driver and all passengers and their

belongings, any optional equipment such

as a trailer hitch, roof rack or bike carrier,

etc., and the tongue load of a trailer.

& GVWR and GAWR (Gross

Vehicle Weight Rating and

Gross Axle Weight Rating)

Certification label

The certification label attached to the

driver’s side door shows GVWR (Gross

Vehicle Weight Rating) and GAWR (Gross

Axle Weight Rating).

The GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight) must

never exceed the GVWR. GVW is the

combined total of weight of the vehicle,

fuel, driver, all passengers, luggage, any

optional equipment and trailer tongue

Driving tips 8-13

– CONTINUED –

8-14 Driving tips

load. Therefore, the GVW changes de-

pending on the situation.

In addition, the total weight applied to

each axle (GAW) must never exceed the

GAWR. The front and rear GAWs can be

adjusted by relocating luggage inside the

vehicle.

Even if the total weight of your luggage is

lower than the vehicle capacity weight,

either front or rear GAW may exceed the

GAWR, depending on the distribution of

the luggage.

When possible, the load should be evenly

distributed throughout the vehicle.

If you carry heavy loads in the vehicle, you

should confirm that GVW and front and

rear GAWs are within the GVWR and

GAWR by putt ing your veh icle on a

ve hicle scale, found at a commercial

weighing station.

Do not use replacement tires with a lower

load range than the originals because they

may lower the GVWR and GAWR limita-

tions. Replacement tires with a higher load

range than the originals do not increase

the GVWR and GAWR limitations.

& Roof rails with integrated

crossbars (Outback)

1) Integrated crossbars

CAUTION

. For cargo carrying purposes, the

bars must be used as crossbars

and be used together with the

genuine SUBARU carrying at-

tachment. The bars must never

be used alone to carry cargo.

Otherwise, damage to the roof or

paint or a dangerous road hazard

due to loss of cargo could result.

. When using the bars as cross-

bars, make sure that the total

weight of th e carrying attach-

ment and cargo does not exceed

the maximum load limit. Over-

loading may cause damage to

the vehicle and create a safety

hazard.

The bars can be used as crossbars.

Cargo can be carried after setting the

bars as crossb ars and installing the

genuine SUBARU carrying attachment.

When you carry cargo on the roof using

the crossbars and a carrying attachment,

never exce ed the maximum load limit

explained in the following. You should

also be careful that your vehicle does not

exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating

(GVWR) and front and rear Gross Axle

Weight Rating (GAWR). For information

on loading cargo into or onto your vehicle,

refer to “Loading your vehicle” F8-12. The

maximum load limit of the cargo and

carrying attachment must not exceed the

allowable load limit described in the Own-

er’s Manual of a genuine SUBARU carry-

ing attachment. Place the heaviest load at

the bottom, nearest the roof, and evenly

distribute the carg o. Always prop erly

secure all cargo.

! Installing carrying attachments on

the crossbars

When installing any carrying attachment

such as a bike carrier, ski carrier, kayak

carrier, cargo basket, etc. on the cross-

bars, follow the manufacturer’s instruc-

tions and make sure that the attachment is

securely fixed to the crossbars. Use only

attachments designed specifically for the

crossbars. A set of the crossba rs is

designed to carry loads (cargo and attach-

ment) of not more than the allowable load

limit described in the Owner’s Manual of a

genuine SUBARU carrying attachment.

Before operating the vehicle, make sure

that the cargo is properly secured on the

attachment.

NOTE

. Remember that the vehicle’s center

of gravity is altered with the weight of

the load on the roof, thus affecting the

driving characteristics. Drive carefully,

avoid rapid starts, hard cornering and

abrupt stops. Crosswind effects will be

increased.

. Restor e the bars to the original

position when the bars are not used

as crossbars.

! How to use as crossbars

CAUTION

. Do not raise the bar higher than

necessary. The base of the bar

may be damaged.

. Be careful not to contact the bars

while sliding them. Otherwise,

the bars may be scratched or

the latch portions may be da-

maged.

. Do not slide the bar more than

necessary when sliding the bar.

The bas e of the bar may be

damaged.

. Do not allow the bar to fall on or

contact the roof panel or the

moonroof when sliding the bar.

Otherwise the roof panel may be

dented or the glass of the moon-

roof may be damaged.

1. Pull out the integrated crossbars from

the roof rail holders by pulling up the

covers.

2. Slide the bars in the direction shown in

the illustration.

! How to re-stow bars

CAUTION

Do not use the bars as roof rails

when the bars are stowed.

1. Check that the rear crossbar is stowed

in the front side holder.

2. Pull out the crossbars from the roof rail

holders by pulling up the covers.

3. Slide the bars in the direction shown in

Trailer hitch (Outback — if

equipped)

WARNING

. Never exceed the maximum

weight specified for the trailer

hitch. Exceeding the maximum

weight could cause an accident

resulting in serious personal in-

juries. Permissible trailer weight

changes depending on the situa-

tion. For possible recommenda-

tions and limita tions, refer to

“Trailer towing” F8-20.

. Trailer brakes are required when

the towing load exceeds 1,000

lbs (453 kg). Be sure your trailer

has safety chains and that each

chain will hold the trailer’s max-

imum gross weight. Towing trai-

lers without safety chains could

create a traffic safety hazard if

th e trailer separates from the

hitch due to coupling damage or

hitch ball damage.

. Be sure to check the hitch pin

and safety pin for positive lock-

ing placement before towing a

trailer. If the ball mount comes off

th e hitch receiver, the traile r

co uld get loose and create a

traffic safety hazard.

. Use only the ball mount supplied

with this hitch. Use the hitch only

as a weight carrying hitch. Do not

use with an y type of weight

distributing hitch.

The trailer hitch is designed to tow a Class

1 rated load. The maximum gross trailer

weight and maximum gross tongue weight

are indicated in the following table.

hitch ball must be securely installed on the

ball mount.

6. Connect your trailer to the hitch ball.

7. Connect the trailer and the hitch with

safety chains that will hold the trailer’s

maximum gross weight. The chains

should cross under the trailer tongue to

prevent the tongue from dropping onto the

ground in case it should disconnect from

the hitch ball. Allow sufficient slack in the

chains taking tight turn situations into

account; however, be careful not to let

them drag on the ground.

WARNING

Do not connect safety chains to part

of the vehicle other than the safety

chain hooks.

Hitch harness connector

8. Connect the hitch wire harness’s black

four-pin wire connector to the towing

trailer’s wire harness.

9. Confirm proper function of the hitch

wire harness by individually activating the

brake, stop and turn signal lights on the

trailer.

NOTE

Always disconnect the trailer wire har-

ness before launching or retrieving a

watercraft.

& When you do not tow a trailer

. Remove the ball mount from the hitch

receiver tube and insert the receiver cover

onto the hitch receiver tube.

. Place the dust cap over the four-pin

connector of the hitch wire harness to

protect against possible damage.

. Occasionally lubricate terminals of the

four-pin connector using terminal grease.

Trailer towing

Your vehicle is designed and intended to

be used primarily as a passenger-carrying

vehicle. Towing a trailer puts additional

loads on your vehicle’s engine, drivetrain,

brakes, tires and suspension and has an

adverse effect on fuel economy.

If you do decide to tow a trailer, your safety

and satisfaction depend upon proper use

of correct equipment and cautious opera-

tion of your vehicle. Seek the advice of

your SUBARU dealer to assist you in

purchasing a hitch and other necessary

towing equipment appropriate for your

vehicle. In addition, be sure to follow the

instructions on correct installation and use

provided by the trailer and other towing

equipment manufacturers.

SUBARU assumes no responsibility for

injuries or vehicle damage that result from

trailer towing equipment, or from any

errors or omissions in the instructions

accompanying such equipment or for your

failure to follow the proper instructions.

& Warranties and maintenance

SUBARU warranties do not apply to

vehicle damage or malfunction caused

by trailer towing. If you use your vehicle to

tow a trailer, more frequent maintenance

will be required due to the additional load.

(Refer to “Maintenance schedule under

severe driving conditions” in the “Warranty

and Maintenance Booklet”.)

Under no circumstances should a trailer

be towed with a new vehicle or a vehicle

with any new powertrain component (en-

gine, transmission, differential, wheel

bearings, etc.) for the first 1,000 miles

(1,600 km) of driving.

& Maximum load limits

WARNING

Never exce ed the maximum load

limits explained in the following.

Exceeding the maximum load limits

could cause personal injury and/or

vehicle damage.

CAUTION

. Adequate size trailer brakes are

required when the trailer and its

cargo exceed 1,000 lbs (453 kg)

total weight.

. Before towing a trailer, check the

trailer total weight, GVW, GAWs

and tongue load. Make sure the

load and its distribution in your

vehicle and trailer are accepta-

ble.

! Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) and

Gross Vehicle Weight Rating

(GVWR)

Gross Vehicle Weight

The Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) must

never exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight

Rating (GVWR).

Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) is the

combined total of the weight of the vehicle,

driver, passengers, luggage, trailer hitch,

trailer tongue load and any other optional

equipm ent installed on you r vehicle.

Therefore, the GVW changes depending

on the situation. Determine the GVW each

time before going on a trip by putting your

vehicle and trailer on a vehicle scale.

GVWR is shown on the certification label

located on the driver’s door of your

vehicle.

Certification label

! Gross Axle Weight (GAW) and

Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR)

Gross Axle Weight

The total weight applied to each axle

(GAW) must never exceed the Gross Axle

Weight Rating (GAWR). The front and rear

GAWs can be adjusted by relo cating

passengers and luggage inside the vehi-

cle. The front and rear GAWR are also

shown on the certification label.

Certification label

To check both GVWR and GAWR and to

confirm that the total weight and weight

distribution are within safe driving limits,

you should have your vehicle and trailer

weighed at a commercial weighing station.

Be sure that all cargo is firmly secured to

prevent a change in weight distribution

while driving.

! Tongue load

Tongue load

WARNING

If the trailer is loaded with more

weight in the back of trailer’s axle

than in the front, the load is taken off

the rear axle of the towing vehicle.

This may cause the rear wheels to

skid, especially during braking or

when vehicle speed is reduced dur-

ing corne ring, res ulting in over-

steer, spin out and/or jackknifing.

Ensure that the trailer tongue load is from

8 to 11 percent of the total trailer weight

and does not exceed the maximum value

of 200 lbs (90 kg).

NOTE

For vehicles with trailer brakes, the

trailer tongue load exceeds 200 lbs (90

kg) when calculated at 8% of the

maximum total trailer weight.

Even in this case, the maximum value

is 200 lbs (90 kg).

1) Jack

2) Bathroom scale

The tongue load can be weighed with a

bathroom scale as shown in the following

illustration. When weighing the tongue

load, be sure to position the towing

coupler at the height at which it would be

during actual towing, using a jack as

shown.

F: Front

The tongue load can be a djusted by

proper distribution of the load in the trailer.

Never load the trailer with more weight in

the back than in the front; approximately

60 percent of the trailer load should be in

the front and approximately 40 percent in

the rear. Also, distribute the load as evenly

as possible on both the left and right

sides.

Be sure that all cargo is firmly secured to

prevent a change in weight distribution

while driving.

& Trailer hitches

WARNING

Never drill the frame or under-body

of your vehicle to install a commer-

cial trailer hitch. If you do, danger-

ous exhaust gas, water or mud may

enter the passenger compartment

through the drilled hole. Exhaust

gas contains carbon monoxide, a

colorless and odorless gas which is

dangerous, or even lethal, if inhaled.

Also, drilling the frame or under-

body of your vehicle could cause

deterio ration of strength of your

vehicle and cause corrosion around

the drilled hole.

CAUTION

. Do not modify the vehicle ex-

haust system, brake system, or

other systems when installing a

hitch or other trailer towing

equipment.

. Do not use axle-mounted hitches

as they can cause damage to the

axle housing, wheel bearings,

wheels or tires.

Choose a proper hitch for your vehicle and

trailer.

! Outback

The use of a genuine SUBARU trailer

hitch is recommended. A genuine

SUBARU hitch is available from your

SUBARU dealer.

If use of a non-genuine hitch is unavoid-

able, be sure the hitch is suited to your

vehicle and trailer. Consult with a profes-

sional hitch su pp lier to assist you in

choosing an appropriate hitch for your

vehicle. Be sure to follow all of the hitch

manufacturer’s instructions for installation

and use.

Never use a hitch that mounts only to the

rear bumper. The bumper is not designed

to handle that type of load.

For all types of hitches, regularly check

that the hitch mounting bolts and nuts are

tight.

! Legacy

SUBARU does not offer accessory trailer

hitches. Consult with a professional hitch

supplier to assist you in choosing an

appropriate hitch for your vehicle. Be sure

to follow all of the hitch manufacturer’s

instructions for installation and use.

Never use a hitch that mounts only to the

rear bumper. The bumper is not designed

to handle that type of load.

Regularly check that the hitch mounting

bolts and nuts are tight.

& Connecting a trailer

! Trailer brakes

WARNING

. Adequate size trailer brakes are

required when the trailer and its

cargo exceed 1,000 lbs (453 kg)

total weight.

. Do not directly connect your

trailer’s hydraulic brake system

to the hydraulic brake system in

your vehicle. Direct connection

would cause the vehicle’s brake

performance to deteriorate and

could lead to an accident.

If your trailer’s total weight (trailer weight

plus its cargo weight) exceeds 1,000 lbs

(453 kg), the trailer is required to be

equipped with its own brake system.

Electric brakes or surge brakes a re

recommended, and must be installed

properly. Check that your trailer’s brakes

conform with Federal, state/province and/

or other applicable regulations . Your

SUBARU’s brake system is not designed

to be tapped into the trailer’s hydraulic

brake system. Please ask your SUBARU

dealer and professional trailer supplier for

more information about the trailer’s brake

system.

! Trailer safety chains

WARNING

Always use safety chains between

your vehicle and the trailer. Towing

trailer without safety chains could

create a traffic safety hazard if the

trailer separates from the hitch due

to coupling damage or hitch ball

damage.

In case the trailer hitch connector or hitch

ball should break or become discon-

nected, the trailer could get loose and

create a traffic safety hazard.

For safety, always connect the towing

v ehicle and tra iler with trailer safety

chains. Pass the chains crossing each

other under the trailer tongue to prevent

the trailer from dropping onto the ground

in case the trailer tongue should discon-

nect from the hitch ball. Allow sufficient

s lack in the chains ta king tight turn

situations into account; however, be care-

ful not to let them drag on the ground.

For more information about the safety

chain connection, refer to the instructions

for your hitch and trailer.

! Side mirrors

After hitching a trailer to your vehicle,

check that the standard side mirrors

provide a good rearward field of view

without significant blind spots. If significant

blind spots occur with the vehicle’s stan-

dard side mirrors, use towing mirrors that

conform with Federal, state/province and/

or other applicable regulations.

! Trailer lights

CAUTION

Direct splicing or other improper

connection of traile r lights may

damage your vehicle’s electrical

system and cause a malfunction of

your vehicle’s lighting system.

Connection of trailer lights to your vehi-

cle’s electrical system requires modifica-

tions to the vehicle’s lighting circuit to

increase its capacity and accommodate

wiring changes. To ensure the trailer lights

are connected properly, please consult

your SUBARU dealer. Check for proper

operation of the turn signals and the stop

lights each time you hitch up.

! Tires

WARNING

Never tow a trailer when the tem-

porary spare tire is used. The tem-

porary spare tire is not designed to

sustain the towing load. Use of the

temporary spare tire when towing

can result in failure of the spare tire

and/or less stability of the vehicle.

Make sure that all the tires on your vehicle

are properly inflated. Refer to “Tires” F12-

9 and in “GAS STATION REFERENCE” at

the end of this manual.

Trailer tire condition, size, load rating and

proper inflation pressure should be in

accordance with the trailer manufacturer’s

specifications.

In the event your vehicle gets a flat tire

when towing a trailer, ask a commercial

Driving tips 8-25

road service to repair the flat tire.

If you carry a regular size spare tire in your

vehicle or trailer as a precaution against

getting a flat tire, be sure that the spare

tire is firmly secured.

& Trailer towing tips

CAUTION

. Never exceed 45 mph (72 km/h)

when to wing a trailer in hilly

country on hot days.

. When towing a trailer, steering,

stability, stopping distance and

braking performance will be dif-

ferent from normal operation. For

safety’s sake, you should employ

extra caution when t owing a

tr ailer and you should never

speed. You should also keep the

following tips in mind:

! Before starting out on a trip

. Check that the vehicle and vehicle-to-

hitch mounting are in good condition. If

any problems are apparent, do not tow the

trailer.

. Check that the vehicle sits horizontally

with the trailer attached. If the vehicle is

tipped sharply up at the front and down at

the rear, check the total trailer weight,

GVW, GAWs and tongue load again, then

confirm that the load and its distribution

are acceptable.

. Che ck that the tire pressures are

correct.

. Check that the vehicle and trailer are

connected properly. Confirm that

– the trailer t ongue is connected

properly to the hitch ball.

– the trailer lights connector is con-

nected properly and trailer’s stop lights

illuminate when the vehicle’s brake

pedal is pressed, and that the trailer’s

turn signal lights flash when the

vehicle’s turn signal lever is operated.

– the safety chains are connected

properly.

– all cargo in the trailer is secured

safety in position.

– the side mirrors provide a good

rearward field of view without a sig-

nificant blind spot.

. Sufficient time should be taken to learn

the “feel” of the vehicle/trailer combination

before starting out on a trip. In an area free

of traffic, practice turning, stopping and

backing up.

! Driving with a trailer

. You should allow for considerably more

stopping distance when towing a trailer.

Avoid sudden braking because it may

result in skidding or jackknifing and loss of

control.

. Avoid abrupt starts and sudden accel-

erations. For MT models, always start out

in first gear and release the clutch pedal at

moderate engine revolution.

. Avoid uneven steering, sharp turns and

rapid lane changes.

. Slow down before turning. Make a

longer than normal turning radius because

the trailer wheels will be closer than the

vehicle wheels to the inside of the turn. In

a tight turn, the trailer could hit your

vehicle.

. Crosswinds will adversely affect the

handling of your vehicle and trailer, caus-

ing sway. Crosswinds can be due to

weather conditions or the passing of large

trucks or buses. If swaying occurs, firmly

grip the steering wheel and slow down

immediately but gradually.

. When passing other vehicles, consid-

erable distance is required because of the

added weight and lengt h caused by

attaching the trailer to your vehicle.

1) Left turn

2) Right turn

. Backing up with a trailer is difficult and

takes practice. When backing up with a

trailer, never accelerate or steer rapidly.

When turning back, grip the bottom of the

steering wheel with one hand and turn it to

the left for a left turn, and turn it to the right

for a right turn.

. If the ABS warning light illuminates

while the vehicle is in motion, stop towing

the trailer and have repairs performed

immediat ely by the neare st SUBARU

dealer.

! Driving on grades

. Before going down a steep hill, slow

down and shift into lower gear (if neces-

sary, use 1st gear) in order to utilize the

engine braking effect and prevent over-

heating of your vehicle’s brakes. Do not

make sudden downshifts.

. When driving uphill in hot weather, the

air conditioner may turn off automatically

to protect the engine from overheating.

. When driving uphill in hot weather,

because the engine and transmission are

relatively prone to overheating, pay atten-

tion to the following items.

– Temperature gauge (if equipped)

– Coolant temperature high warning

light (if equipped)

– AT OIL TEMP warning light (AT and

CVT models)

. If any of the following conditions occur,

immediately turn off the air conditioner and

stop the vehi cle in the nearest safe

location. Refer to “If you park your vehicle

in an eme rgency” F9 -2 and “E ngine

overheating” F9-13.

– Te mperature gauge needle ap-

proac hes the OVERHEAT z one (if

equipped). Refer to “Temperature

gauge (models with type A combina-

tion meter)” F3-11.

– Coolant temperature high warning

light illuminates (if equipped). Refer to

“Coolant tem perature low indicator

light/Coolant temperature high warn-

ing light” F3-16.

– AT OIL TEMP warning light illumi-

nates (AT and CVT models). Refer to

“AT OIL TEMP warning light (AT and

CVT models)” F3-18.

. For AT and CVT models, avoid using

the accelerator pedal to stay stationary on

an uphil l slope instead of using the

parking brake or foot brake. That may

cause the transmission fluid to overheat.

! Parking on a grade

Always block the wheels unde r both

vehicle and trailer when parking. Apply

the parking brake. You should not park on

a hill or slope. But if parking on a hill or

slope cannot be avoided, you should take

the following steps:

1. Apply the brakes and hold the pedal

down.

2. Have someone place wheel blocks

under both the vehicle and trailer wheels.

3. When the wheel blocks are in place,

release the regular brakes slowly until the

blocks absorb the load.

4. Apply the regular brakes and then

apply the parking brake; slowly release

the regular brakes.

5. Shift into 1st or reverse gear (MT

models) or “P” (AT and CVT models) and

shut off the engine.
