After that, this indicator light/warning light
changes to
BLUE
and maintains illumina-
tion in
BLUE
. This
BLUE
illuminated light
turns off when the engine is warmed up
sufficiently.
If the engine coolant temperature in-
creases over the specified range, the
indicator light/warning light blinks in
RED
. At this time, decelerate the vehicle.
After the blinking
RED
light turns off, you
can drive the vehicle normally. However, if
the indicator light/warning light often blinks
in
RED
, the electrical system may be
malfunctioning. We recommend that you
contact your SUBARU dealer for an
inspection.
If the engine coolant temperature in-
creases further, the indicator light/warning
light illuminates in
RED
continuously. At
this time, the engine may be overheating.
Safely stop the vehicle as soon as
possible, and refer to the emergency
steps for the case of engine overheating.
Refer to
9-23.
After that, we recommend that you have
the system checked by your nearest
SUBARU dealer.
NOTE
If the engine is restarted after a certain
driving condition, this indicator light/
warning light may illuminate in RED.
However, this is not a malfunction if the
indicator light/warning light turns off
after a short time.

Charge warning light
If this light illuminates when the engine is
running, it may indicate that the charging
system is not working properly.
If the light illuminates while driving or does
not turn off after the engine starts, stop the
engine at the first safe opportunity and
check the alternator belt. If the belt is
loose, broken or if the belt is in good
condition but the light remains illuminated,
we recommend that you contact your
nearest SUBARU dealer immediately.
&
Oil pressure warning
light
If this light illuminates when the engine is
running, it may indicate that the engine oil
pressure is low and the lubricating system
is not working properly.
If the light illuminates while driving or does
not turn off after the engine starts, stop the
engine at the first safe opportunity and
check the engine oil level. If the oil level is
low, add oil immediately. If the engine oil is
at the proper level but the light remains
illuminated, we recommend that you con-
tact your nearest SUBARU dealer imme-
diately.
