WARNING
. Bulbs may become very hot while illuminated. Before replacing bulbs, turn off the bulbs and wait until the bulbs cool down. Other- wise, there is a risk of sustaining a burn injury.
. For models with HID low beam headlights, observe the following precautions. Not doing so carries the risk of an electric shock that could result in serious injury because the HID bulbs use an extremely high voltage. – Do not replace any headlight bulbs (both low beam and high beam) by yourself.
– Do not remove/restore the headlight assemblies by your- self.
– Do not remove any headlight- assembly components by yourself.
For replacement, contact your SUBARU dealer.

For U.S.A.
The following information has been compiled according to Code of Federal Regulations “Title 49, Part 575”.
Tire information & Tire labeling Many markings (e.g. Tire size, Tire Identification Number or TIN) are placed on the sidewall of a tire by tire manufacturers. These markings can provide you with useful infor- mation on the tire. ! Tire size Your vehicle comes equipped with P-Metric tire size. It is important to understand the sizing system in selecting the proper tire for your vehicle. Here is a brief review of the tire sizing system with a breakdown of its individual elements. ! P Metric With the P-Metric system, Section Width is measured in millimeters. To convert millimeters into inches, divide by 25.4. The Aspect Ratio (Section Height divided by Section Width) helps provide more dimen- sional the tire size.

Consumer information and Reporting safety defects 13-3
(6) Load Index: A numerical code
which specifies the maximum load
a tire can carry at
the speed
indicated by its speed symbol, at
maximum inflation pressure.
For example, “104” means 1,984
lbs (900 kg), “100” means 1,764 lbs
(800 kg), “90” means 1,323 lbs (600
kg).
WARNING
Load indices apply only to the tire, not to the vehicle. Putting a load rated tire on any vehicle does not mean the vehicle can be loaded up to the tire’s rated load.
(7) Speed Rating: An alphabetical system describing a tire’s capability to travel at established and prede- termined speeds. For example, “H” means 130 mph
WARNING
. Speed ratings apply only to the tire, not to the vehicle. Putting a speed rated tire on any vehicle does not mean the vehicle can be operated at the tire’s rated speed.
. The speed rating is void if the tires are worn out, da- maged, repaired, retreaded, or otherwise altered from If their original condition. tires are repaired, re- treaded, or otherwise al- tered, they may not be sui- table for original equipment tire designed loads and speeds.

pressure to achieve proper in- flation
Check and, if necessary, adjust the pressure of each tire (including the spare) at least once a month and before any long journey. Check the tire pressures when the tires are cold. Use a pressure gauge to adjust the tire pressures to the specific values. Driving even a short distance warms up the tires and increases the tire pressures. Also, the tire pressures are affected by the outside temperature. is best to check tire pressure out- doors before driving the vehicle. When a tire becomes warm, the air inside it expands, causing the tire pressure to increase. Be careful not to mistakenly release air from a warm tire to reduce its pressure.

& Tire care – maintenance and
safety practices
. Check on a daily basis that the tires are free from serious damage, nails, and stones. At the same time, check the tires for abnormal wear. . Inspect the tire tread regularly and replace the tires before their tread wear indicators become visi- ble. When a tire’s tread wear indicator becomes visible, the tire is worn beyond the acceptable limit and must be replaced immediately. With a tire in this condition, driving at even low speeds in wet weather can cause the vehicle to hydro- plane. Possible resulting loss of vehicle control can lead to an accident.

For information about the tightening torque and tightening sequence for the wheel nuts, refer to “Flat tires” F9-6. & Vehicle load limit – how to
determine
The load capacity of your vehicle is determined by weight, not by avail- able cargo space. The load limit of your vehicle is shown on the vehicle placard attached to the driver’s side B-pillar. Locate the “The combined weight statement of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs”
on your vehicle’s placard. The vehicle placard also shows seating capacity of your vehicle. The total load capacity includes the total weight of driver and all pas- sengers and their belongings, any cargo, any optional equipment such as a trailer hitch, roof rack or bike carrier, etc., and the tongue load of a trailer. Therefore cargo capacity can be calculated by the following method. Cargo capacity = Load limit − (total weight of occupants + total weight of optional equipment + tongue load of a trailer (if applicable))
For information about vehicle load- ing, refer to “Loading your vehicle” F8-11. For information about towing capa- city and weight to “Trailer towing” F8-20.

Calculate the available load capa- city as shown in the following examples.
Example 1A
Vehicle capacity weight of the vehicle is 1,157 lbs (525 kg), which is indicated on the vehicle placard with the statement “The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed 525 kg or 1,157 lbs”.
北米Model "A3160BE-C" EDITED: 2010/ 11/ 19
For example, if the vehicle has one
occupant weighing 154 lbs (70 kg)
plus cargo weighing 882 lbs (400
kg).
1. Calculate the total weight.
2. Calculate the available load ca- pacity by subtracting the total weight from the vehicle capacity weight of 1,157 lbs (525 kg).
3. The result of step 2 shows that a further 121 lbs (55 kg) of cargo can be carried.

vehicle is 1,157 lbs (525 kg), which
is indicated on the vehicle placard
with the statement “The combined
weight of occupants and cargo
should never exceed 525 kg or
1,157 lbs”.
For example, the vehicle has one
occupant weighing 165 lbs (75 kg)
plus cargo weighing 705 lbs (320
kg). In addition, the vehicle is fitted
with a trailer hitch weighing 22 lbs
(10 kg),
to which is attached a
trailer weighing 1,764 lbs (800 kg).
10% of the trailer weight is applied
to the trailer tongue (i.e. Tongue
load = 176 lbs (80 kg)).
1. Calculate the total weight.
2. Calculate the available load ca- pacity.
40 lbs (18 kg) now enter the same
vehicle (bringing the number of
occupants to three), and a child
restraint system weighing 11 lbs (5
kg) is installed in the vehicle for the
child to use, the calculations are as
follows.
1. Calculate the total weight.

Weight Rating (GVWR). And each axle’s maximum loaded capacity is referred to Gross Axle Weight Rat- ing (GAWR). The GVWR and each axle’s GAWR are shown on the vehicle certification label affixed to the driver’s door. The GVWR and front and rear GAWRs are determined by not only the maximum load rating of tires but also loaded capacities of the vehi- cle’s suspension, axles and other parts of the body. Therefore, the vehicle cannot necessarily be loaded up to the tire’s maximum load rating on the tire sidewall.

& Adverse safety conse-
quences of overloading on handling and stopping and on tires
Overloading could affect vehicle handling, stopping distance, vehicle and tire as shown in the following. This could lead to an accident and possibly result in severe personal
injury. . Vehicle stability will deteriorate. . Heavy and/or high-mounted loads could increase the risk of rollover. . Stopping distance will increase. . Brakes could overheat and fail. . Suspension, bearings, axles and other parts of the body could break or experience accelerated wear that will shorten vehicle life. . Tires could fail. . Tread separation could occur. . Tire could separate from its rim. & Steps for Determining Cor-
rect Load Limit
1. Locate the statement “The com- bined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX pounds” on your vehicle’s placard. 2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be riding in your vehicle. 3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kilograms or XXX pounds.

Uniform tire quality grading standards
form to Federal Safety Require- ments in addition to these grades.
This information indicates the rela- tive performance of passenger car tires in the area of treadwear, traction, and temperature resis- tance. This is to aid the consumer in making an informed choice in the purchase of tires. Quality grades can be found where applicable on the tire sidewall be- tween tread shoulder and maxi- mum section width. For example:
Treadwear 200 Traction AA Tem- perature A
The quality grades apply to new pneumatic tires for use on passen- ger cars. However, they do not apply to deep tread, winter type snow tires, space-saver or tempor- ary use spare tires, tires with nominal rim diameters of 12 inches or less, or to some limited produc- tion tires.
All passenger car tires must con-
& Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a compara-
tive rating based on the wear rate of
the tire when tested under con-
trolled conditions on a specified
government test course.
For example, a tire graded 150
would wear one and one-half (1-
1/2) times as well on the govern-
ment course as a tire graded 100.
The relative performance of
tires
depends upon the actual conditions
of
their use, however, and may
depart significantly from the norm
due to variations in driving habits,
service practices and differences in
road characteristics and climate.
& Traction AA, A, B, C The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B and C. Those grades represent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled conditions on spe-

The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, underinflation, or ex- cessive loading, either sepa- rately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possi- ble tire failure.
cified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction perfor- mance.
WARNING
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight- ahead braking traction tests, and does not include accel- eration, cornering, hydroplan- ing, or peak traction charac- teristics.
& Temperature A, B, C The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the tire’s resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled con- ditions on a specified indoor labora- tory test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The
