fluid or worn brake pads. If this occurs,
immediately stop the vehicle at the near-
est safe place and check the brake fluid
level. For details, refer to Brake fluid
F11-28. If the fluid level is below the
MIN mark in the reservoir, do not drive
the vehicle. We recommend that you have
the vehicle towed to the nearest SUBARU
dealer for repair. For details, refer to
Towing F9-24.
! 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-
cles motion may therefore become some-
what harder to control.
If the brake system warning light and ABS
warni ng light illuminate simul taneously,
take the following steps:
1. Stop the vehicle in the nearest safe,
flat place.
2. Shut down the engine, appl y the
parking brake, and then restart it.
3. Release the parking brake.
. Even if both warning lights turn off, the
EBD system may be malfunctioning.
We recommend that you drive carefully to
the nearest SUBARU dealer and have the
system inspected.
. 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. For details, refer to
Brake fluid F11-28.
Even if the brake fluid level is not
below the MIN mark, the EBD sys-
tem may be malfunctioning. We re-
commend that you drive carefully to
the nearest SUBARU dealer and have
the system inspected.
If the brake fluid level is below the
MIN mark, DO NOT drive the vehicle.
Instead, we recommend that you have
the vehicle towed to the nearest
SUBARU dealer for repair. For details,
refer to Towing F9-24.
