DRIVING WITH PETS
s00ad10
Unrestrained pets can interfere with your
driving and distract your attention from
driving. In a collision or sudden stop,
unrestrained pets or cages can be thrown
around inside the vehicle and hurt you or
your passengers. Besides, the pets can
be hurt under these situations. It is also
for their own safety that pets should be
properly restrained in your vehicle. Re-
strain a pet with a special traveling
harness which can be secured to the rear
seat with a seatbelt or use a pet carrier
which can be secured to the rear seat by
routing a seatbelt through the carrier’s
handle. Never restrain pets or pet carriers
in the front passenger’s seat. For further
information, consult your veterinarian,
local animal protection society or pet
shop.
TIRE PRESSURES
s00ad11
Check and, if necessary, adjust the
pressure of each tire and the spare (if
equipped) at least once a month and
before any long journey.
Check the tire pressure when the tires are
cold. Use a pressure gauge to adjust the
tire pressures to the values shown on the
tire inflation pressure label. For detailed
information, refer to “Tires and Wheels”
�P486.
WARNING
Driving at high speeds with
excessively low tire pressures
can cause the tires to deform
severely and to rapidly become
hot. A sharp increase in tem-
perature could cause tread se-
paration, and destruction of the
tires. The resulting loss of vehi-
cle control could lead to an
accident.
ON-ROAD AND OFF-ROAD
DRIVING
s00ad13
This vehicle is classified as a utility
vehicle. Utility vehicles have a signifi-
cantly higher rollover rate than other
types of vehicles. Your vehicle has a
higher ground clearance and higher
center of gravity, making it more likely to
roll over than ordinary passenger cars. It
also handles and maneuvers differently
from other passenger cars. For this
reason, please read carefully the follow-
ing section and follow the instructions and
precautions in order to prevent serious
injury or death due to loss of control,
rollover and other accidents. Refer to
“On-Road and Off-Road Driving” �P411.
ATTACHING ACCESSORIES
s00ad15
WARNING
. Do not attach any accessories,
labels or stickers (other than prop-
erly placed inspection stickers) to
the windshield. Such items may
obstruct your view.
. If it is necessary to attach an
accessory (such as an electronic
toll collection (ETC) device or
security pass) to the windshield,
consult your SUBARU dealer for
details on the proper location.
. Do not connect any unauthorized
accessories or devices to the data
link connector (OBDII port). This
connector should be used only with
compatible diagnostic devices for
inspection and maintenance by an
authorized service technician
using authorized service tools.
Connecting unauthorized devices,
such as a driver-behavior tracking
device, may adversely affect vehi-
cle systems, including safety sys-
tems, or allow others to access
information stored in your vehicle.
The use of unauthorized devices
may also cause unexpected mal-

functions, such as a drained bat-
tery, or may damage vehicle sys-
tems. The manufacturer’s warranty
will not cover any part that mal-
functions, fails, or is damaged due
to the use of an unauthorized
device with the data link connector.
VEHICLE OPERATION

Before leaving vehicle unat-
tended
s00ad1801
CAUTION
Always lock your vehicle and carry
your access key fob with you.
There is a risk for vehicle theft or
unauthorized persons tampering with
the vehicle or installing malicious
electronic devices.
Key number plate storage
s00ad1802
NOTE
. The key number is required when
repairing the vehicle or making a
spare access key fob. If you lose the
plate with these numbers stamped on
it, you will not be able to make a spare
access key fob. To prevent it from
being stolen, do not leave it in the
vehicle and store it in a safe place.
Refer to “Keyless Access with Push-
Button Start System” �P117.
. If you lose your key, we recommend
that you delete the lost access key fob
registration to prevent theft. Only a
SUBARU dealer can delete key fob
registration. We recommend that you
consult your SUBARU dealer. Refer to
“Key Replacement” �P129.
Vehicle modifications
s00ad1803
WARNING
. Do not install parts, make custom
adjustments or perform wiring or
other operations that are not sui-
table for the vehicle.
. Do not connect accessories to the
vehicle wiring or connectors unless
they are genuine SUBARU pro-
ducts. SUBARU’s vehicle warranty
does not cover any malfunctions
resulting from connecting the ve-
hicle to products other than those
specified.
. It may be illegal to modify the
vehicle by installing parts other
than genuine SUBARU parts.
Consult your SUBARU dealer
about the kinds of parts (tires,
wheels, mufflers, etc.) you can
legally install on your vehicle.
Device installation
s00ad1804
WARNING
Connecting devices that are not in-
tended to be used in the vehicle or in a
particular connector can adversely
affect the vehicle system or cause the
auxiliary battery to discharge. It may
also cause personal information leaks
or unauthorized remote operation of
vehicle features, resulting in unfore-
seen complications. Any complication
caused by connecting a device other
than one intended to be used in the
vehicle is not covered by the manu-
facturer’s warranty. SUBARU also
bears no responsibility for any such
complication.
. The vehicle trouble diagnosis con-
nector should only be used to
connect the vehicle data link con-
nector (OBDII) for inspection and
maintenance purposes.
