This is information that can improve efficiency of
maintenance and assure sound work.
1. FASTENER NOTICE
SA03676A1501
Fasteners are used to prevent parts from damage
and dislocation due to looseness. Fasteners must
be tightened to the specified torque.
Do not apply paint, lubricant, rust retardant, or
other substances to the surface around bolts,
fasteners, etc. Doing so will make it difficult to
obtain the correct torque and result in looseness
and other problems.

2. STATIC ELECTRICITY DAMAGE

SA03676A1502
Do not touch the ECM, connectors, logic boards,
and other such parts when there is a risk of static
electricity. Always use a static electricity prevention
cord or touch grounded metal before conducting
work.
3. IGNITION OFF BATTERY
SA03676A1503
When removing the battery cables, always be sure
to turn the ignition off to prevent electrical damage
to the ECM from rush current.

4. SERVICE PARTS

SA03676A1504
Use authentic service parts for maximum perfor-
mance and maintenance, when conducting
repairs. Subaru/FHI will not be responsible for poor
performance resulting from the use of parts not
specified by a genuine dealer.
