Instruments and controls/Warning and indicator
CAUTION
Do not operate the engine with the
oil pressure warning light illumi-
nated. This may cause serious en-
gine damage.
& Engine low oil level
warning light
This light illuminates when the engine oil
level decreases to the lower limit.
If the warning light illuminates, check the
engine oil level on a level surface. When
the engine oil level is not within the normal
range, refill with engine oil. Refer to
"Engine oil" F11-8. After adding or chan-
ging the engine oil, warm up the engine
and stop it on a level surface, then start the
engine after a lapse of 1 minute or more.
Confirm that the warning light have turned
off after the engine has started. If the
warning light does not turn off after refilling
the engine oil, or the light illuminates even
though the engine oil level is within the
normal range, have the vehicle checked by
a SUBARU dealer.
NOTE
. The oil level will be detected by the
system just after turning the ignition
switch to the OFF position. If the oil
level is below the lower limit when the
ignition switch is turned to the ON
position, the engine low oil level warn-
ing light will turn on.
. When the vehicle is parked on a
steep slope, the engine low oil level
warning light may not illuminate even if
the oil level is below the lower limit to
avoid the erroneous lighting.
& Windshield washer
fluid warning light
This light illuminates when the fluid level in
the windshield washer fluid tank de-
creases to the lower limit (approximately
0.6 US qt, 0.6 liter, 0.5 Imp qt).
& AT OIL TEMP warning
light (CVT models)
If this light illuminates when the engine is
running, it may indicate that the transmis-
sion fluid temperature is too hot.
If the light illuminates while driving, im-
mediately stop the vehicle in a safe place
and let the engine idle until the warning
light turns off.
! Transmission control system warn-
ing
If the "AT OIL TEMP" warning light flashes
after the engine has started, it may indicate
that the transmission control system is not
working properly. Contact your nearest
SUBARU dealer for service immediately.
& Low tire pressure
warning light (U.S.-
spec. models)
When the ignition switch is turned to the
"ON" position, the low tire pressure warn-
ing light will illuminate for approximately 2
seconds to check that the tire pressure
monitoring system (TPMS) is functioning
properly. If there is no problem and all tires
are properly inflated, the light will turn off.
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the vehicle manufacturer on
the vehicle placard or tire inflation pres-
sure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a
different size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label, you should determine the proper tire
inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle
has been equipped with a tire pressure
monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates
