Jump starting

If the low tire pressure warning light

comes on while driving, never brake

suddenly and keep driving straight

ahead while gradually reducing

speed. Then slowly pull off the road

to a safe place. Otherwise an acci-

dent involving serious vehicle dam-

age and serious personal injury

could occur.
Check the pressure for all four tires

and adjust the pressure to the COLD

tire pressure shown on the vehicle

placard on the door pillar on the

driver’s side. If this light still comes

on while driving after adjusting the

tire pressure, a tire may have signif-

icant damage and a fast leak that

causes the tire to lose air rapidly. If

you have a flat tire, replace it with a

spare tire as soon as possible.

When a spare tire is mounted or a

wheel rim is replaced without the

original pressure sensor/transmitter

being transferred, the low tire pres-

sure warning light will flash. This in-

dicates the TPMS is unable to moni-

tor all four road wheels. Contact

your SUBARU dealer as soon as

possible for tire and sensor replace-

ment and/or system resetting.
Do not inject any tire liquid or aero-

sol tire sealant into the tires, as this

may cause a malfunction of the tire

pressure sensors.
If the light flashes, promptly contact

a SUBARU dealer to have the sys-

tem inspected.

Battery fluid is SULFURIC ACID.

Do not let it come in contact with

the eyes, skin, clothing or the ve-

hicle.

If battery fluid gets on you, thor-

oughly flush the exposed area

with water immediately. Get medi-

cal help if the fluid has entered

your eyes.

If battery fluid is accidentally

swallowed, immediately drink a

large amount of milk or water, and

obtain immediate medical help.

Keep everyone including children

away from the battery.

The gas generated by a battery ex-

plodes if a flame or spark is

brought near it. Do not smoke or

light a match while jump starting.

Never attempt jump starting if the

discharged battery is frozen. It

could cause the battery to burst or

explode.
