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:
To turn the compass feature on/off,
press and hold the switch for
more
than 3 seconds or until the display turns
on/off. The compass feature will default to
on with each ignition cycle.
If the display reads “C”, slowly drive the
vehicle in circles until compass is calibrated...
The vehicle is involved in frontal collision
with another vehicle (moving or stationary).
The vehicle is struck from behind.
The vehicle pitches end over end.
In the event of accidents like those
