11-8 Maintenance and service

. Be careful not to spill engine oil

when adding it. If oil touches the

exhaust pipe, it may cause a bad

smell, smoke, and/or a fire. If

engine oil gets on the exhaust

pipe, be sure to wipe it off.

If you check the oil level just after stopping

the engine, wait a few minutes for the oil to

drain back into the oil pan before checking

the level.

To prevent overfilling the engine oil, do not

add any additional oil above the full level

when the engine is cold.

& Changing the oil and oil filter

Change the oil and oil filter according to

the maintenance schedule in the “War-

ranty and Maintenance Booklet”.

The engine oil and oil filt er must be

changed more frequently than listed in

the maintenance schedule when driving

on dusty roads, when short trips are

frequently made, or when dri ving in

extremely cold weather.

NOTE

Changing the engine oil and oil filter

should be performed by a properly-

trained expert. It is recommended that

you have this service performed by

your SUBARU dealer.

1. Warm up the engine by letting the

engine idle for approximately 10 minutes

to ease draining the engine oil.

2. Park the vehicle on a level surface and

stop the engine.

3. Remove the oil filler cap.

4. Drain out the engine oil by removing

the drain plug while the engine is still

warm. The used oil should be drained into

an appropriate container and disposed of

properly.

WARNING

Be careful not to burn yourself with

hot engine oil.

5. Wipe the seating surface of the drain

plug with a clean cloth and tighten it

securely with a new sealing washer after

the oil has completely drained out.

6. Open the access cover by removing

the five clips and turning the access cover

counterclockwise. The oil filter will be

exposed.
