which can be secured to the rear seat with
a seatbelt or use a pet carrier which can be
secured to the rear seat by routing a
seatbelt through the carrier's handle.
Never restrain pets or pet carriers in the
front passenger's seat. For further infor-
mation, consult your veterinarian, local
animal protection society or pet shop.
& Tire Pressures
Check and, if necessary, adjust the pres-
sure of each tire and the spare (if
equipped) at least once a month and
before any long journey.
Check the tire pressure when the tires are
cold. Use a pressure gauge to adjust the
tire pressures to the values shown on the
tire placard. For detailed information, refer
to "Tires and Wheels" FP502.
WARNING
Driving at high speeds with
excessively low tire pressures
can cause the tires to deform
severely and to rapidly be-
come hot. A sharp increase in
temperature could cause tread
separation, and destruction of
the tires. The resulting loss of
vehicle control could lead to
an accident.
& On-Road and Off-Road Driv-
ing
This vehicle is classified as a utility vehicle.
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher
rollover rate than other types of vehicles.
Your vehicle has a higher ground clear-
ance and higher center of gravity, making it
more likely to roll over than ordinary
passenger cars. It also handles and
maneuvers differently from other passen-
ger cars. For this reason, please read
carefully the following section and follow
the instructions and precautions in order to
prevent serious injury or death due to loss
of control, rollover and other accidents.
Refer to "Off Road Driving" FP422.
& Attaching Accessories
WARNING
. Do not attach any accessories,
labels or stickers (other than
properly placed inspection stick-
ers) to the windshield. Such
items may obstruct your view.
Safety Precautions When Driving
. If it is necessary to attach an
accessory (such as an electronic
toll collection (ETC) device or
security pass) to the windshield,
consult your SUBARU dealer for
details on the proper location.
