contact a SUBARU dealer.
NOTE
The setting can be changed by operating
the combination meter display
(color LCD)...
This position is for restarting a stalled
engine. In this position, the transmission is
neutral, meaning that the wheels and
transmission are not locked. Therefore,
the vehicle will roll freely, even on the
slightest incline unless the parking brake
or foot brake is applied...
