11-2. Maintenance Precautions
s11ab
When maintenance and service are required,
it is recommended that all work be
done by an authorized SUBARU dealer.
If you perform maintenance and service by
yourself, you should familiarize yourself
with the information provided in this section
on general maintenance and service
for your SUBARU.
Incorrect or incomplete service could
cause improper or unsafe vehicle operation.
Any problems caused by improper
maintenance and service performed by
you are not eligible for warranty coverage.
WARNING
. Testing of an All-Wheel Drive
vehicle must NEVER be performed
on a single two-wheel
dynamometer or similar apparatus.
Attempting to do so will
result in transmission damage
and in uncontrolled vehicle
movement and may cause an
accident or injuries to persons
nearby.
. Always select a safe area when
performing maintenance on your
vehicle.
. Always be very careful to avoid
injury when working on the vehicle.
Remember that some of the
materials in the vehicle may be
hazardous if improperly used or
handled, for example, battery
acid.
. Your vehicle should only be serviced
by persons fully competent
to do so. Serious personal injury
may result to persons not experienced
in servicing vehicles.
. Always use the proper tools and
make certain that they are well
maintained.
. Never get under the vehicle supported
only by a jack. Always use
safety stands to support the
vehicle.
. Never keep the engine running in
a poorly ventilated area, such as
a garage or other closed areas.
. Do not smoke or allow open
flames around the fuel or battery.
This will cause a fire.
. Because the fuel system is under
pressure, replacement of the fuel
filter should be performed only
by your SUBARU dealer.
