CAUTION
Direct splicing or other improper connection of trailer lights may
damage your vehicle’s electrical system and cause a malfunction

and accommodate wiring changes. To ensure the trailer lights are
connected properly, please consult your SUBARU dealer. Check for
proper operation of the turn signals and the brake lights and parking
lights each time you hitch up.
