Air filtration system (if
equipped)
If your vehicle’s air conditioning system is
equipped with an air filtration system, re-
place the filter element according to the
replacement schedule shown in the fol-
lowing. This schedule should be followed
to maintain the filter’s dust collection abili-
ty. Under extremely dusty conditions, the
filter should be replaced more frequently.
It is recommended that you have your fil-
ter checked or replaced by your SUBARU
dealer. For replacement, we recommend
the use of a genuine SUBARU air filter kit.
Replacement schedule:
Every 12 months or 12,000 km (7,500
miles) whichever comes first
NOTE
The filter can influence the air condi-
tioning, heating and defroster perfor-
mance if not properly maintained.
We recommend that you contact
your SUBARU dealer if the following
occurs, even if it is not yet time to
change the filter:
– Reduction of the air flow through
the vents.
– Windshield gets easily fogged or
misted.
