Checking the fluid level
Checking the fluid level
Check the fluid level on the outside of the reservoir. If the level is below “MIN” level mark, add the recommended clutch fluid to “MAX” level mark.
Use only clutch fluid from a sealed container.
Never let clutch fluid contact your eyes because clutch fluid can be harmful to your eyes. If clutch fluid gets in your eyes, immediately flush them thoroughly with clean water.
For safety, when performing this work, wearing eye protection is advisable.
- Clutch fluid absorbs moisture from the air. Any absorbed moisture can cause improper clutch operation.
- If the vehicle requires frequent refilling, there may be a leak. If you suspect a problem, have the vehicle checked at your SUBARU dealer.
- When clutch fluid is added, be careful not to allow any dirt into the tank.
- Never splash the clutch fluid over painted surfaces or rubber parts.
Alcohol contained in the clutch fluid may damage them.
- Be careful not to spill clutch fluid when adding it. If clutch fluid touches the exhaust pipe, it may cause a bad smell, smoke, and/or a fire. If clutch fluid gets on the exhaust pipe, be sure to wipe it off.
