Turbo models
The catalytic converter is installed in the exhaust sys-
tem. It serves as catalyst to reduce HC, CO and NOx
in exhaust gases, thus providing cleaner exhaust.
To avoid damage to the catalytic converter:
Use only unleaded gasoline. Even a small amount
of leaded gasoline will damage the catalytic converter.
Never start the engine by pushing or pulling the ve-
hicle.
Avoid racing the engine.
Never turn off the ignition switch while the vehicle is
moving.
Keep your engine tuned-up. If you feel the engine
running rough (misfiring, backfiring or incomplete
combustion), have your vehicle checked and repaired
by an authorized SUBARU dealer.
Do not apply undercoating or rust prevention treat-
ment to the heat shield of catalytic converter and the
exhaust system.
