Subaru Forester: Starting and operating / Braking
WARNING
Never rest your foot on the brake
pedal while driving. This can cause
dangerous overheating of the
brakes and needless wear on the
brake pads...
Other information:
The continuously variable transmission is
electronically controlled and provides an
infinite number of forward speeds and 1
reverse speed. It also has a manual mode
or an “L” position.
NOTE
When the engine coolant temperature
is still low, the transmission will
shift at higher engine speeds than
when the coolant temperature is sufficiently
high in order to shorten the
warm-up time and improve driveability...
TRIP RESET switch
Type A combination meter
Type B combination meter
This meter displays the two trip meters
when the ignition switch is in the “ON”
position.
The trip meter shows the distance that the
vehicle has been driven since you last set
it to zero...
