Subaru Forester: Maintenance and service / Installation of accessories
Always consult your SUBARU dealer
before installing fog lights or any other
electrical equipment in your vehicle. Such
accessories may cause the electronic
system to malfunction if they are incorrectly
installed or if they are not suited for
the vehicle.
It may be difficult to replace the bulbs. We
recommend that you have the bulb replaced
by your SUBARU dealer if necessary.
WARNING
Bulbs may become very hot while
illuminated...
Other information:
In the event that you cannot open the rear
gate by operating the rear gate opener
button, you can open it from inside the
cargo area.
Remove the access cover at the
bottom-center of the rear gate trim using
a flat-head screwdriver wrapped with vinyl
tape or a cloth...
CAUTION
Use the emergency brake only in
case of an emergency. If the emergency
brake is excessively used, the
brake parts will wear down faster or
the brake may not work sufficiently
due to brake overheating.
NOTE
While using the emergency brake:
The electronic parking brake indicator
light and the indicator light on the
parking brake switch illuminate and a
chirp sounds...
