Periodic Inspections; Modification Of Your Vehicle - Subaru IMPREZA Manual

Warranties
Warranties for your new SUBARU are de-
tailed in the SUBARU "Warranty and Ser-
vice Booklet" supplied with your vehicle.
Please read those warranties carefully.

Periodic inspections

Your "Warranty and Service Booklet" con-
tains a schedule of recommended service
outlined by SUBARU (Aust) for mainte-
nance and repair of your new SUBARU.
To keep your SUBARU in proper operat-
ing condition and to assure peak perfor-
mance at all times, the recommended
maintenance services listed in the "War-
ranty and Service Booklet" should be per-
formed by an authorized dealer at the time
and/or driving distance intervals shown.
Your first service is due at 12,500 km or 6
months, whichever occurs first. More fre-
quent servicing may be necessary under
certain conditions. Consult your dealer for
his or her recommendations.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
It is strongly recommended that the en-
gine oil level of your vehicle be
checked at each fuel stop. Oil should
then be added, if necessary. All petrol
engines consume oil, and engines of
new vehicles tend to consume oil more
rapidly. Failure to maintain engine oil
at proper levels may result in serious
engine damage.

Modification of your vehicle

Do not perform any modifications to
the vehicle body or attach any op-
tional equipment such as bush bar,
bullbar, winches, snow plow, skid/
sump plate etc. other than genuine
SUBARU accessory parts.
Such modifications can affect the
performance of your vehicle's occu-
pant crash protection because it can
interfere with proper function of the
SRS airbags, seatbelt pretensioners
and the designed energy absorption
and protection of the body struc-
ture.
