light/coolant temperature high warning
light has the following three functions.

. Blinking in RED indicates that the
engine is close to overheating
. Illumination in RED indicates overheating condition of the engine
For a system check, this indicator light/
warning light illuminates in RED for
approximately 2 seconds when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position.
After that, this indicator light/warning light
changes to BLUE and maintains illumination in BLUE. This BLUE illuminated light
turns off when the engine is warmed up
sufficiently.

If the engine coolant temperature increases over the specified range, the
indicator light/warning light blinks in
RED. At this time, the engine is close to
overheating.
If the engine coolant temperature increases further, the indicator light/warning
light illuminates in RED continuously. At
this time, the engine may be overheating.
When the indicator light/warning light
blinks in RED or illuminates in RED, safely
stop the vehicle as soon as possible, and
refer to the emergency steps to take in the
case of engine overheating. Refer to
“Engine overheating” F9-17. After that,
have the system checked by your nearest
SUBARU dealer.
Also, if the indicator light/warning light
often blinks in RED, the electrical system
may be malfunctioning. Contact your
SUBARU dealer for an inspection.

NOTE
If the engine is restarted after a certain
driving condition, this indicator light/
warning light may illuminate in RED.
