Vehicle maintenance is an important factor for
proper vehicle operation. The vehicle's driver should ensure that fluid
levels (engine oil, coolant, etc.) are checked frequently (i.e., each
time you add fuel) in accordance with the instructions in the owner's
manual.
Your Subaru vehicle (except H6 and turbocharged models)
requires an initial engine oil and filter change at 7,500 miles or 7.5
months, whichever occurs first. Subaru H6 engine model vehicles will
require an initial 3,000 mile/3 month oil change, as a part of its
regular maintenance schedule. For all Subaru turbocharged vehicles, the
recommended oil and oil filter change interval is every 3,750 miles or
four months, whichever comes first. We suggest that you schedule an
appointment for this service and any other necessary adjustments at
your local Subaru dealer. Locate your local dealer by going to the
upper right corner of subaru.com and input your zip code.
The
frequency of scheduled inspection and maintenance services as set forth
below is minimal. However, it may be necessary that they be performed
more frequently depending on road conditions, weather, atmospheric
conditions, vehicle usage and individual driving habits.
Maintenance,
repair or replacement of the emission control devices and systems of
your car may be performed by any automotive repair establishment or
individual, using any automotive part which its manufacturer has
certified will not result in a failure of your car to comply with the
regulations of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
