Maintenance and service
11-4
D Always be very careful to avoid injury when
working on the vehicle. Remember that some
of the materials in the vehicle may be hazard-
ous if improperly used or handled, for exam-
ple, battery acid.
D Your vehicle should only be serviced by per-
sons fully competent to do so. Serious per-
sonal injury may result to persons not experi-
enced in servicing vehicles.
D Always use the proper tools and make cer-
tain that they are well maintained.
D Never get under the vehicle supported only
by a jack. Always use a safety stands to sup-
port the vehicle.
D Never keep the engine running in a poorly
ventilated area, such as a garage or other
closed areas.
D Do not smoke or allow open flames around
the fuel or battery. This will cause a fire.
D Because the fuel system is under pressure,
replacement of the fuel filter should be per-
formed only by your SUBARU dealer.
D Wear adequate eye protection to guard
against getting oil or fluids in your eyes. If
something does get in your eyes, thoroughly
wash them out with clean water.
D Do not tamper with the wiring of the SRS
airbag system or seatbelt pretensioner sys-
tem, or attempt to take its connectors apart,
as that may activate the system or it can ren-
der it inoperative. The wiring and connectors
of these systems are yellow for easy identifi-
cation. NEVER use a circuit tester for these
wiring.
If your SRS airbag or seatbelt pretensioner
needs service, consult your nearest SUBARU
dealer.
J Before checking or servicing in the
engine compartment
D Always stop the engine and set the parking
brake firmly to prevent the vehicle from mov-
ing.
D Always let the engine cool down. Engine
parts become very hot when the engine is run-
ning and remain hot for some time after the
engine is stopped.
D Do not spill engine oil, engine coolant, brake
fluid or any other fluid on hot engine compo-
nents. This may cause a fire.
D Always remove the key from the ignition
switch. When the ignition switch is in the
