Towing
If towing is necessary, it is best done by
your SUBARU dealer or a commercial

procedures for safety.
WARNING
Never tow AWD models with the
front wheels raised off the ground
while the rear wheels are on the
ground, or with the rear wheels
raised off the ground while the front
wheels are on the ground. This will
cause the vehicle to spin away due
to the operation or deterioration of
the center differential.

hooks/holes
The towing hooks should be used only in
an emergency (e.g., to free a stuck vehicle
from mud, sand or snow).

hooks and tie-down hooks/holes.
Never use suspension parts or
other parts of the body for towing
