VDC (Vehicle Dynamics Control) system
(if equipped)
WARNING
Always use the utmost care in driving — overconfidence because
you are driving with a VDC system equipped vehicle could easily
lead to a serious accident.
CAUTION
D Even if your vehicle is equipped with VDC, winter tires should
be used when driving on snow-covered or icy roads; in addition,
vehicle speed should be reduced considerably. Simply having a
VDC system does not guarantee that the vehicle will be able to
avoid accidents in any situation.
D Activation of the VDC system is an indication that the road
being travelled on has a slippery surface; since having VDC is no
guarantee 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.
D Whenever suspension components, steering components, or
an axle are removed from a vehicle equipped with VDC, have an
authorized SUBARU dealer perform an inspection of that system.
D The following precautions should be observed in order to
ensure that the VDC system is operating properly:
– All four wheels should be fitted with tires of the same size,
type, and brand. Furthermore, the amount of wear should be
the same for all four tires.
– Keep the tire pressure at the proper level as shown on the
label attached to the vehicle’s door pillar.
– Use only the special temporary spare tire to replace a flat
tire. With a temporary spare tire, the effectiveness of the VDC
system is reduced and this should be taken into account when
driving with vehicle.
