. Reversing the vehicle with a trailer can
be difficult and requires experience.
Never accelerate or steer rapidly, and
grip the bottom of the steering wheel
with one hand.
To reverse around a corner, perform the
following procedure.
1. Reverse slowly and steer in the oppo-
site direction to the way you want to
turn.
2. Once the trailer begins to swing
around, straighten the steering wheel.
3. Turn the wheel in the opposite direc-
tion.
4. Steer the vehicle around to be in line
with the trailer, then straighten the
steering again.
. If the ABS warning light illuminates
while the vehicle is in motion, stop
towing the trailer and have repairs
performed immediately by your nearest
SUBARU dealer.

. Before going down a steep hill, slow
down and shift to a lower gear (if
necessary, use 1st gear) in order to
utilize the engine braking effect and
prevent overheating of your vehicle’s
brakes. Do not make sudden down-
shifts.
. When driving uphill in hot weather, the
air conditioner may turn off automati-
cally to protect the engine from over-
heating.
. When driving uphill in hot weather, pay
attention to the following indicators
because the engine and transmission
are relatively prone to overheating.
: Coolant temperature high warning light
: AT OIL TEMP warning light
: Rear differential oil temperature warn-
ing light (if equipped)
If the coolant temperature high warning
light and/or the AT OIL TEMP warning light
illuminates, immediately turn off the air
conditioner and stop the vehicle in the
nearest safe location. For further instruc-
tions and additional information, refer to
the following sections.
“If you park your vehicle in case of
an emergency” P418
“Engine overheating” P428
“Coolant temperature low indicator
light/Coolant temperature high
warning light” P171
“AT OIL TEMP warning light”
P173
“Rear differential oil temperature
warning light” P173
. Avoid using the accelerator pedal to
stay stationary on an uphill slope
instead of using the parking brake or
foot brake. That may cause the trans-
mission fluid to overheat.
