Maintenance and service
NOTE
For diesel engine models, make sure to
check the engine oil level 5 minutes
after the engine stops. Waiting any
longer will prevent accurate oil level
measurement.
1)
Engine oil level gauge
2)
Engine oil filler cap
3. Pull out the level gauge, wipe it clean,
and insert it again.
4. Be sure the level gauge is correctly
inserted until it stops with the graphic
symbol
“
”
on its top appearing as
shown in the illustration.
1)
Full level
2)
Low level
3)
Approximately 1.0 liter (1.1 US qt, 0.9
Imp qt) from low level to full level
5. Pull out the level gauge again and
check the oil level on it. If it is below the
low level, it is necessary to add engine oil
to bring the level up to the full level.
6. To add engine oil, remove the engine
oil filler cap and slowly pour engine oil
through the filler neck.
CAUTION
.
Use only engine oil with the
recommended grade and vis-
cosity.
.
Be careful not to spill engine oil
when adding it. If oil touches the
exhaust pipe, it may cause a bad
smell, smoke, and/or a fire. If
engine oil gets on the exhaust
pipe, be sure to wipe it off.
NOTE
To prevent overfilling the engine oil, do
not add any additional oil above the full
level.
7. Restart the engine and keep the
engine idling until the idle speed stabi-
lizes.
8. Stop the engine. After 5 minutes,
check the oil level again.

Changing the oil and oil filter
Change the oil and oil filter according to
the maintenance schedule.
The engine oil and oil filter must be
changed more frequently than listed in
the maintenance schedule, when short
trips are frequently made, when towing a
trailer, or when driving in extremely cold
weather.
NOTE
.
Changing the engine oil and oil filter
should be performed by a well-trained
expert. We recommend that you con-
tact your SUBARU dealer for changing
