WARNING
Always use the utmost care in
driving overconfidence because
you are driving with a Vehicle Dy-
namics Control system equipped
vehicle could easily lead to a ser-
ious accident.
CAUTION
. Even if your vehicle is equipped
with Vehicle Dynamics Control,
winter tires or snow chains
should be used when driving on

indication that the road being
travelled on has a slippery sur-

that full vehicle control will be
maintained at all times and under
all conditions, its activation
should be seen as a sign that
the speed of the vehicle should
be reduced considerably.
. Whenever suspension compo-
nents, steering components, or
an axle are removed from a
vehicle equipp ed with Vehicle
Dynamics Control, have an
authorized SUBARU dealer per-
form an inspection of that sys-

. The following precautions should
be observed in order to ensure
that the Vehicle Dynamics Con-
trol system is operating properly:
All four wheels should be
fitted with tires of the same
size, type, and brand. Further-
more, the amount of wear
should be the sam e for all
four tires.
Keep the tire pressure at the
proper level as shown on the
vehicle placard attached to
the drivers side door pillar.

porary spare tire to replace a
flat tire. With a temporary
