Instruments and controls 3-21 steadily after blinking for approximately one minute. This indicates the TPMS is unable to monitor all four road wheels. Contact your SUBARU dealer as soon as possible for tire and sensor replacement and/ or system resetting. If the light illuminates steadily after blinking for approximately one minute, promptly contact a SUBARU dealer to have the system inspected. off a few minutes later. Therefore, be sure to install the specified size for the front and rear tires. & ABS warning light The ABS warning light illuminates when the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position and turns off after approximately 2 seconds. This is an indication that the ABS system is working properly. CAUTION The tire pressure monitoring system is NOT a substitute for manually checking tire pressure. The tire pressure should be checked periodically (at least monthly) using a tire gauge. After any change to tire pressure(s), the tire pressure monitoring system will not re-check tire inflation pressures until the vehicle is first driven more than 20 mph (32 km/h). After adjusting the tire pressures, increase the vehicle speed to at least 20 mph (32 km/h) to start the TPMS re-checking of the tire inflation pressures. If the tire pressures are now above the severe low pressure threshold, the low tire pressure warning light should turn - The warning light illuminates during driving. . When the warning light is on (and the brake system warning light is off), the ABS function shuts down; however, the conventional brake system continues to operate normally. . When the warning light is flashing, the ABS system may be malfunctioning. However, the conventional brake system continues to operate normally. With a vehicle equipped with an EBD system, the ABS warning light illuminates together with the brake system warning light if the EBD system malfunctions. For further details of the EBD system malfunction warning, refer to "Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD) system warning" F3-22. CAUTION . If any of the following conditions occur, we recommend that you have the ABS system repaired at the first available opportunity by your SUBARU dealer. - The warning light does not illuminate when the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position. - The warning light illuminates when the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position, but it does not turn off even when the vehicle speed exceeds approximately 12 km/h (8 mph). NOTE If the warning light behavior is as described in the following, the ABS system may be considered normal. . The warning light illuminates right after the engine is started but turns off immediately, remaining off. . The warning light remains illuminated after the engine has been started, - CONTINUED -

mately one minute. This indicates
the TPMS is unable to monitor all
four
road
wheels.
Contact
your
SUBARU dealer as soon as possible
for tire and sensor replacement and/
or
system
resetting.
If
the

promptly contact a SUBARU dealer
to have the system inspected.
CAUTION
The tire pressure monitoring system
is
NOT a
substitute
for
manually
checking
tire
pressure.
The
tire
pressure should be checked peri-
odically (at least monthly) using a
tire gauge. After any change to tire
pressure(s), the tire pressure mon-
itoring system will not re-check tire
inflation pressures until the vehicle
is first driven more than 20 mph (32
km/h). After adjusting the tire pres-
sures, increase the vehicle speed to
at least 20 mph (32 km/h) to start the
TPMS re-checking of the tire infla-
tion pressures. If the tire pressures
are
now
above
the
severe
low
pressure
threshold,
the
low
tire
pressure warning light should turn
off a few minutes later. Therefore, be
sure to install the specified size for
the front and rear tires.

ABS warning light
The ABS warning light illuminates when
the ignition switch is turned to the
