Fuel

CAUTION

Use of a fuel which is low in

quality or use of an inappropriate
fuel additive may cause damage
to the engine and/or fuel system.

Some gas stations, particularly

those in high altitude areas, offer
fuels posted as regular octane
gasoline with an octane rating
below 87 AKI (90 RON). Use of
those fuels are not recom-
mended.

Fuel requirements

The engine is designed to operate using

unleaded gasoline

with an octane rating

87 AKI (90 RON) or higher

Fuel octane rating

Using a gasoline with a lower octane rating
can cause persistent and heavy knocking,
which can damage the engine. Do not be
concerned if your vehicle sometimes
knocks lightly when you drive up a hill or
when you accelerate. Contact your
SUBARU dealer if you use a fuel with the
specified octane rating and your vehicle

knocks heavily or persistently.

RON

This octane rating is the Research Octane
Number.

AKI

This octane rating is the average of the
Research Octane and Motor Octane num-
bers and is commonly referred to as the
Anti Knock Index (AKI).

Unleaded gasoline

The neck of the fuel filler pipe is designed
to accept only an unleaded gasoline filler
nozzle. Under no circumstances should
leaded gasoline be used because it will
damage the emission control system and
may impair driveability and fuel economy.

Reformulated gasoline

SUBARU supports the use of reformulated
gasoline when available. Reformulated
gasoline has been blended to burn more
cleanly and reduce vehicle emissions.

MMT

Some gasoline contains an octane-enhan-
cing additive called MMT (Methylcyclo-
pentadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl). If
you use such fuels, your emission control
system performance may deteriorate and
the CHECK ENGINE warning light/Mal-
function indicator light may turn on. If this

happens, return to your authorized
SUBARU Dealer for service. If it is
determined that the condition is caused
by the type of fuel used, repairs may not be
covered by your warranty.

Gasoline for cleaner air

Your use of gasoline with detergent ad-
ditives will help prevent deposits from
forming in your engine and fuel system.
This helps keep your engine in tune and
your emission control system working
properly, and is a way of doing your part
for cleaner air. If you continuously use a
high quality fuel with the proper detergent
and other additives, you should never
need to add any fuel system cleaning
agents to your fuel tank.

Many gasolines are now blended with
materials called oxygenates. Use of these
fuels can also help keep the air cleaner.
Oxygenated blend fuels, such as ethanol
(ethyl or grain alcohol) may be used in your
vehicle, but should contain no more than
15% ethanol for the proper operation of
your SUBARU.

Do not use any gasoline that contains
more than 15% ethanol, including from any
pump labeled E30, E50 or E85 (which are
only some examples of fuel containing
more than 15% ethanol).

– CONTINUED –

Starting and operating/Fuel

7-3

(280,1)

In addition, some gasoline suppliers are
now producing reformulated gasolines,
which are designed to reduce vehicle
emissions. SUBARU approves the use of
reformulated gasoline.

If you are not sure what the fuel contains,
you should ask your service station op-
erators if their gasolines contain deter-
gents and oxygenates and if they have
been reformulated to reduce vehicle emis-
sions.

As additional guidance, only use fuels
suited for your vehicle as explained in the
following description.

Fuel should be unleaded and have an

octane rating no lower than that specified
in this manual.

Methanol (methyl or wood alcohol) is

sometimes mixed with unleaded gasoline.
Methanol can be used in your vehicle

ONLY

if it does not exceed 5% of the fuel

mixture

AND

if it is accompanied by

sufficient quantities of the proper cosol-
vents and corrosion inhibitors required to
prevent damage to the fuel system. Do not
use fuel containing methanol

EXCEPT

under these conditions.

If undesirable driveability problems are

experienced and you suspect they may be
fuel related, try a different brand of gaso-
line before seeking service at your

SUBARU dealer.

Fuel system damage or driveability

problems which result from the use of
improper fuel are not covered under the
SUBARU Limited Warranty.

CAUTION

Do not let fuel spill on the exterior
surfaces of the vehicle. Because fuel
may damage the paint, be sure to
wipe off any spilled fuel quickly.
Paint damage caused by spilled fuel
is not covered under the SUBARU
Limited Warranty.

Refueling

Only one person should be involved in
refueling. Do not allow others to approach
the area of the vehicle near the fuel filler
pipe while refueling is in progress.
Be sure to observe any other precautions
that are posted at the service station.

1. Stop the vehicle and turn the ignition
switch to the “LOCK”/“OFF” position and
turn off all the other electrical components.
2. To open the fuel filler lid, pull the fuel
filler lid release lever up. The lever is on the
floor at the left of the driver’s seat.

WARNING

Before opening the fuel filler cap,
first touch the vehicle body or a
metal portion of the fuel pump or
similar object to discharge any sta-
tic electricity that may be present on
your body. If your body is carrying
an electrostatic charge, there is a
possibility that an electric spark
could ignite the fuel, which could
burn you. To avoid acquiring a new
static electric charge, do not get
back into the vehicle while refueling
is in progress.

Open

3. Remove the fuel filler cap by turning it
slowly counterclockwise.

WARNING

Gasoline vapor is highly flam-

mable. Before refueling, always
turn the ignition switch to the
“LOCK”/“OFF” position first and
then close all vehicle doors and
windows. Make sure that there
are no lighted cigarettes, open
flames or electrical sparks in the
adjacent area. Only handle fuel
outdoors. Quickly wipe up any
spilled fuel.

When opening the cap, grasp it

firmly and turn it slowly to the left.
Do not remove the cap quickly.
Fuel may be under pressure and
spray out of the fuel filler neck,
especially in hot weather. If you
hear a hissing sound while you
are removing the cap, wait for the
sound to stop and then slowly
open the cap to prevent fuel from
spraying out and creating a fire
hazard.

4. Set the fuel filler cap on the cap holder
inside the fuel filler lid.

WARNING

When refueling, insert the fuel

nozzle securely into the fuel filler
pipe. If the nozzle is lifted or not
fully inserted, its automatic stop-
ping mechanism may not func-
tion, causing fuel to overflow the
tank and creating a fire hazard.

Stop refueling when the auto-

matic stop mechanism on the
fuel nozzle activates. If you con-
tinue to add fuel, temperature
changes or other conditions
may cause fuel to overflow from
the tank and create a fire hazard.

5. Stop filling the tank after the fuel filler
pump automatically stops. Do not add any
more fuel.
6. Put the cap back on, turn it clockwise
until you hear a clicking noise. Be certain
not to catch the tether under the cap while
tightening.

CAUTION

Make sure that the cap is tightened
until it clicks to prevent fuel spillage
in the event of an accident.

7. Close the fuel filler lid completely.

CAUTION

If you spill any fuel on the painted
surface, rinse it off immediately.
Otherwise, the painted surface
could be damaged.

NOTE

You will see the “

” sign in the fuel

gauge. This indicates that the fuel filler
lid is located on the right side of the
vehicle.

If the fuel filler cap is not tightened

until it clicks or if the tether is caught
under the cap, the CHECK ENGINE
warning light/malfunction indicator
light may illuminate. Refer to “CHECK
ENGINE warning light/Malfunction in-
dicator light”

�

3-16.

CAUTION

Never add any cleaning agents to

the fuel tank. The addition of a
cleaning agent may cause da-
mage to the fuel system.

After refueling, turn the cap to the

right until it clicks to ensure that
it is fully tightened. If the cap is
not securely tightened, fuel may
leak out while the vehicle is being
driven or fuel spillage could oc-
cur in the event of an accident,
creating a fire hazard.

Do not let fuel spill on the exterior

surfaces of the vehicle. Because
fuel may damage the paint, be
sure to wipe off any spilled fuel

quickly. Paint damage caused by
spilled fuel is not covered under
the SUBARU Limited Warranty.

Always use a genuine SUBARU

fuel filler cap. If you use the
wrong cap, it may not fit or have
proper venting and your fuel tank
and emission control system
may be damaged. It could also
lead to fuel spillage and a fire.

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.
Continuing to operate your vehi-
cle at an extremely low fuel level
may result in a reduction of
engine performance.

State emission testing (U.S.
only)

WARNING

Only use a four-wheel dynamometer
when testing an All-Wheel Drive
(AWD) model.

Testing of an AWD model must
NEVER be performed on a single
two-wheel dynamometer. Attempt-
ing to do so will result in uncon-
trolled vehicle movement and may
cause an accident or injuries to
persons nearby.

CAUTION

At state inspection time, remem-

ber to tell your inspection or
service station in advance not to
place your SUBARU AWD vehicle
on a two-wheel dynamometer.
Otherwise, serious transmission
damage will result.

Resultant vehicle damage due to

improper testing is not covered
under the SUBARU Limited War-
ranty and is the responsibility of
the state inspection program or

its contractors or licensees.

California and a number of federal states
have Inspection/Maintenance programs to
inspect your vehicle’s emission control
system. If your vehicle does not pass this
test, some states may deny renewal of
your vehicle’s registration.

Your vehicle is equipped with a computer
that monitors the performance of the
engine’s emission control system. Certi-
fied emission inspectors will inspect the
On-Board Diagnostic (OBDII) system as
part of the state emission inspection
process. The OBDII system is designed
to detect engine and transmission pro-
blems that might cause the vehicle emis-
sions to exceed allowable limits. OBDII
inspections apply to all 1996 model year
and newer passenger cars and trucks.
Over 30 states plus the District of Colum-
bia have implemented emission inspection
of the OBDII system.

The inspection of the OBDII system

consists of a visual operational check of
the “

CHECK ENGINE

” warning light/mal-

function indicator light (MIL) and an ex-
amination of the OBDII system with an
electronic scan tool.

A vehicle passes the OBDII system

inspection if proper operation of the
“

CHECK ENGINE

” warning light is ob-

– CONTINUED –

Starting and operating/State emission testing (U.S. only)

(284,1)

served, there are no stored diagnostic
trouble codes, and the OBDII readiness
monitors are all complete.

A vehicle fails the OBDII inspection if

the “

CHECK ENGINE

” warning light is not

properly operating (light is illuminated or is
not working due to faulty LED [Light
Emitting Diode]) or there is one or more
diagnostic trouble codes stored in the
vehicle’s computer.

A state emission inspection may reject

(not pass or fail) a vehicle if the number of
OBDII system readiness monitors “

NOT

READY

” is greater than one. If the

vehicle’s battery has been recently re-
placed or disconnected, the OBDII system
inspection may indicate that the vehicle is
not ready for the emission test. Under this
condition, the vehicle driver should be
instructed to drive his/her vehicle for a
few days to reset the readiness monitors
and return for an emission re-inspection.

Owners of rejected or failing vehicles

should contact their SUBARU Dealer for
service.

Some states still use dynamometers in
their emission inspection program. A
dynamometer is a treadmill or roller-like
testing device that allows your vehicle’s
wheels to turn while the vehicle remains in
one place. Prior to your vehicle being put

on a dynamometer, tell your emission
inspector not to place your SUBARU
AWD vehicle on a two-wheel dynam-
ometer.

Otherwise, serious transmis-

sion damage will result.

The U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) and states using two-wheel
dynamometers in their emission testing
program have EXEMPTED SUBARU
AWD vehicles from the portion of the
testing program that involves a two-wheel
dynamometer. There are some states that
use four-wheel dynamometers in their
testing program. When properly used, this
equipment should not damage a SUBARU
AWD vehicle.

Under no circumstances should the rear
wheels be jacked off the ground, nor
should the driveshaft be disconnected in
an attempt to bypass AWD for state
emission testing. An AWD vehicles must
be tested using an AWD dynamometer
with all 4 wheels driven and loaded.

Preparing to drive

You should perform the following checks
and adjustments every day before you
start driving.
1. Check that all windows, mirrors, and
lights are clean and unobstructed.
2. Check the appearance and condition
of the tires. Also check tires for proper
inflation.
3. Look under the vehicle for any sign of
leaks.
4. Check that no small animals enter the
engine compartment.
5. Check that the hood, trunk (sedan) and
rear gate (5-door models) are fully closed.
6. Check the adjustment of the seat.
7. Check the adjustment of the inside and
outside mirrors.
8. Fasten your seatbelt. Check that your
passengers have fastened their seatbelts.
9. Check the operation of the warning
and indicator lights when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position.
10. Check the gauges, indicator and warn-
ing lights after starting the engine.

Starting and operating/Preparing to drive

7-8

(285,1)

CAUTION

Trapping small animals in the cool-
ing fan and belt of the engine may
result in a malfunction. Check that
no small animal enters the engine
compartment and under the vehicle
before starting the engine.

NOTE

Engine oil, engine coolant, brake fluid,
washer fluid and other fluid levels
should be checked daily, weekly or at
fuel stops.

Starting and stopping the en-
gine (models without push-
button start system)

CAUTION

Do not operate the starter motor
continuously for more than 10 sec-
onds. If the engine fails to start after
operating the starter for 5 to 10
seconds, wait for 10 seconds or
more before trying again.

NOTE

It may be difficult to start the engine
when the battery has been discon-
nected and reconnected (for mainte-
nance or other purposes). This diffi-
culty is caused by the electronically
controlled throttle’s self-diagnosis
function. To overcome it, keep the
ignition switch in the “ON” position
for approximately 10 seconds before
starting the engine.

Starting engine

General precautions when starting
engine

WARNING

Never start the engine from out-

side the vehicle (except when
using the remote engine start
system). It may result in an acci-
dent.

Do not leave the engine running

in locations with poor ventilation,
such as a garage and indoors.
The exhaust gas may enter the
vehicle or indoors, and it may
result in carbon monoxide poi-
soning.

Do not start the engine near dry

foliage, paper, or other flammable
substances. The exhaust pipe
and exhaust emissions can cre-
ate a fire hazard at high tempera-
tures.
