If your vehicle overheats
If your engine overheats:
Stop the vehicle in a safe place and turn off the air condi-
tioning system.
Check to see if steam is coming out from under the engine
hood.
If you see steam:
Stop the engine. Carefully lift the engine hood after the
steam subsides and then restart the engine.
If you do not see steam:
Leave the engine running and carefully lift the engine hood.
Check to see if the cooling fan is operating.
If the fan is operating:
Wait until the temperature of the engine (shown on the
instrument cluster) begins to fall and then stop the engine.
If the fan is not operating:
Stop the engine and we recommend that you call any
authorized SUBARU dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional.
After the engine has cooled
down sufficiently, check the
engine coolant level and
inspect the radiator core (radi-
ator) for any leaks.
