! Electronic Brake Force Distribution

(EBD) system warning

The brake system warning light also

illuminates if a malfunction occurs in the

EBD system. In that event, it illuminates

together with the ABS warning light.

The EBD system may be malfunctioning if

the brake system warning light and ABS

warning light illuminate simultaneously

during driving.

Even if the EBD system fails, the conven-

tional braking system will still function.

However, the rear wheels will be more

prone to locking when the brakes are

applied harder than usual and the vehi-

cle’s motion may therefore become some-

what harder to control.

If the brake system warning light and ABS

warni ng ligh t illuminate simultaneously,

take the following steps:

1. Stop the vehicle in the nearest safe,

flat place.

2. Shut down the engine, apply the

parking brake, and then restart it.

3. Release the parking brake. If both

warning lights turn off, the EBD system

may be malfunctioning.

Drive carefully to the nearest SUBARU

dealer and have the system inspected.

4. If both warning lights illuminate again

and remain illuminated after the engine

has been restarted, shut down the engine

again, apply the parking brake, and check

the brake fluid level.

5. If the brake fluid level is not below the

“MIN” mark, the EBD system may be

malfunctioning. Drive carefully to the

nearest SUBARU dealer and have the

system inspected.

6. If the brake fluid level is below the

“MIN” mark, DO NOT drive the vehicle.

Instead, have the vehicle towed to the

nearest SUBARU dealer for repair.

& Low fuel warning light

CAUTION

Immediately put fuel in the tank

whenever the low fuel warning light

illuminates. Engine misfires as a

result of an empty tank could cause

damage to the engine.

The low fuel warning light illuminates

when the tank is nearly empty approxi-

mately 2.6 US gal (10 liters, or 2.2 Imp

gal). It only operates when the ignition

switch is in the “ON” position. When this

light illuminates, fill the fuel tank immedi-

ately.

NOTE

This light does not turn off unless the

tank is replenished up to an internal

fuel quantity of approximately 4.0 US

gal (15 liters, 3.3 Imp gal).

& Door open warning light

The indicators are located in the center

portion of the dashboard.

When any of the doors or the rear gate is

not fully closed, it is indicated by the

corresponding part of the door open

warning light.

Always make sure this light is out before

you start to drive.
