NOTE:
쐌 When replenishing oil, it does not matter if the oil
to be added is a different brand from that in the
engine; however, use oil having the API classificationand SAEviscosityNo. designatedby
SUBARU.
쐌 If vehicle is used in desert areas with very high
temperatures or for other heavy duty applications,
the following viscosity oils may be used:
API classification: SJ or SH
SAE Viscosity No.: 30, 40, 10W-50, 20W-40,

2) Remove oil level gauge and wipe it clean.
3) Reinsert the level gauge all the way. Be sure
that the level gauge is correctly inserted and in the
proper orientation.
4) Remove it again and note the reading. If the

the level up to the “F” line.
5) After turning off the engine, wait a few minutes
for the oil to drain back into the oil pan before
checking the level.
6) Just after driving or while the engine is warm,
engine oil level may show in the range between the
“F” line and the notch mark. This is caused by
thermal expansion of the engine oil.

NOTE:
Do not attempt to clean the air cleaner element.
The filter paper of the element is wetted with a
special non-flammable slow-evaporating viscous
liquid. It is resistant to cold weather and has a long
service life. Dirt adhering to this filter paper forms
porous laminations with the viscous liquid, which
function as a filtration layer to reduce dust penetration into the filter paper. If this filter paper is
cleaned, the filtration layer thus formed will be lost
along with the viscous liquid.

3. PROCEDURE TO ADJUST THE
CONCENTRATION OF THE COOLANT
SA07689A2003
To adjust the concentration of the coolant according to temperature, find the proper fluid concentration in the above diagram and replace the necessary amount of coolant with an undiluted solution
of SUBARU genuine coolant (concentration 50).
The amount of coolant that should be replaced can
be determined using the diagram.
[Example]
Assume that the coolant concentration must be
increased from 25% to 40%. Find point A, where
the 25% line of coolant concentration intersects
with the 40% curve of the necessary coolant
concentration, and read the scale on the vertical
axis of the graph at height A. The quantity of coolant to be drained is 2.1 liters (2.2 US qt, 1.8 Imp
qt). Drain 2.1 liters (2.2 US qt, 1.8 Imp qt) of coolant from the cooling system and add 2.1 liters (2.2
US qt, 1.8 Imp qt) of the undiluted solution of
SUBARU coolant.
If a coolant concentration of 50% is needed, drain
all the coolant and refill with the undiluted solution
only.
