Subaru Forester: Appearance care / Corrosion protection
Your SUBARU has been designed and
built to resist corrosion. Special materials
and protective finishes have been used on
most parts of the vehicle to help maintain
fine appearance, strength, and reliable
operation.
The most common causes of corrosion
are:
The accumulation of moisture retaining
dirt and debris in body panel sections,
cavities, and other areas...
Other information:
Two separate circuits
Your vehicle has two separate circuit brake
systems. Each circuit works diagonally
across the vehicle. If one circuit of the
brake system should fail, the other half of
the system still works. If one circuit fails,
the brake pedal will go down much closer
to the floor than usual and you will need to
press it down much harder...
NOTE
This section is applicable to the following
components.
Rear passenger’s seatbelt (windowside)
The pretensioner sensor also serves as
follows.
SRS frontal airbag sensor
Side impact sensor
Rollover sensor
If the sensor detects a certain predetermined
amount of force during frontal or
side collisions or rollover accidents, any
seatbelt that has a seatbelt pretensioner is
quickly drawn back in by the retractor to
take up the slack so that the belt more
effectively restrains the seat occupant...
