NOTE
D The VDC OFF indicator light may stay on for a while after the
engine has been started, especially in cold weather. This occurs
because the engine has not yet warmed up and is completely nor-
mal. The light will turn off when the engine has reached a suitable
operating temperature.
D When an engine problem occurs and the CHECK ENGINE
warning light turns on, the VDC OFF indicator light will also turn
on.
The following two situations could indicate malfunction of the VDC
system; if either should occur, have an authorized SUBARU dealer
carry out an inspection of that system at the first available opportunity.
D The VDC OFF indicator light does not turn on when the ignition key
is turned to the ON position.
D The VDC OFF indicator light fails to turn off after the engine is
started, even when several minutes have passed to allow the engine
to heat up sufficiently.
