4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
■
After a fuse is replaced
●
If the lights do not turn on even after the fuse has been replaced, a bulb
may need replacement. (→P. 395)
●
If the replaced fuse blows again, we recommend that you have your vehi-
cle inspected by any authorized SUBARU dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional.
■
If there is an overload in the circuits
The fuses are designed to blow, protecting the wiring harness from damage.
WARNING
■
To prevent system breakdowns and vehicle fire
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may cause damage, and possibly a fire or injury.
●
Never use a fuse of a higher amperage rating than indicated, or use any
other object in place of a fuse.
●
Always use a genuine SUBARU fuse or equivalent.
●
Do not modify the fuse or the fuse box.
CAUTION
■
Before replacing fuses
Have the cause of electrical overload determined and repaired by any autho-
rized SUBARU dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped
professional.
