& Recommended brake fluid  
Refer to “Fluids” P503.  
CAUTION  
Never use different brands of brake  
fluid together. Also, avoid mixing  
DOT 3 and DOT 4 brake fluids even if  
they are the same brand.  
The disc brakes have audible wear in-  
dicators on the brake pads. If the brake  
pads wear close to their service limit, the  
wear indicator makes a very audible  
scraping noise when the brake pedal is  
applied.  
If you hear this scraping noise each time  
you apply the brake pedal, have the brake  
pads serviced by your SUBARU dealer as  
soon as possible.
