2.

Check the sonar sensor installed on the bumper face rear for parts missing, dirt, scratch, foreign objects, etc.

  • The sensor surface must not stick out or sink in at 0.5mm or more from the bumper face rear surface.

    If the sensor surface largely sinks in, the sensor may not engaged in the holder behind the bumper face rear. In this case, check the installation condition of the sensor after removing the bumper face rear.

  • Make sure that there are no foreign objects (tape, stickers, dust or dirt) on the sonar sensor surface.

    If there is a layer of foreign objects on the sensor surface, remove completely so that no residue remains.

56. PARKING BRAKE

Check the parking brake operates properly by depressing brake pedal and operating the electronic parking brake switch.

57. DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) CHECK

Read the diagnostic trouble code and check that the diagnostic trouble code is not detected.

If any diagnostic trouble code is detected, clear all.

1.

Read Diagnostic Trouble Code

 

For detailed operation procedures, refer to “Help” of application.

2.

Clear Memory mode

 

For detailed operation procedures, refer to “Help” of application.

58. AUTO VEHICLE HOLD (AVH) SYSTEM

Check that the AVH system is activated and deactivated correctly.

59. BRAKE TEST

Check the foot brake for normal operations.

 

On the model with brake assist mechanism, the brake pedal feels lighter when the brake pedal is depressed hard or quickly. However, those are not malfunction but the phenomena that occur when the brake assist mechanism functions properly.

60. SHIFT CONTROL
1.

Turn the ignition switch to ON.

2.

While brake pedal is not depressed, check if the select lever does not move from “P” range.

3.

While brake pedal is depressed, check if the select lever moves from “P” range.

4.

Set the selector lever to each gear position and check the shifting while driving the vehicle. Operate the paddle shift at manual mode and check the shifting while driving the vehicle.

61. CRUISE CONTROL

Operate the cruise control system. Check that the system is activated and deactivated correctly. (In the delivery mode, the cruise control does not operate, even when the cruise control switch is pressed.)

62. SUBARU EyeSight
63. POWER STEERING SYSTEM

Check that the steering warning light illuminates when the ignition switch is turned to ON, and that the steering warning light goes off after the engine is started.

64. FLUID LEAKAGE

Check entire areas of the vehicle for any trace of engine coolant/engine oil/gear oil/CVTF leaks.

65. WATER LEAK TEST

Spray the vehicle with water using a hose and check that no water enters the passenger compartment.

Check the following areas.

If any dampness in the compartments is discovered after the water has been applied, carefully check all the areas that may have possibly contributed to the leak.

66. APPEARANCE 2
1.

If protective coating (wrap guard) is applied, remove it.

 
  • When removing the wrap guard, using steam will make it easier to remove.

  • Vehicle left for an extended periods or at low temperatures, spray the vehicle with water heated 50 — 60°C (122 — 140°F) to raise the surface temperature before peeling off the wrap guard. Do not use the water heated to over 60°C (140°F).

  • If the adhesive remains exist on the coated surface, soak a flannel rag, etc. with a small amount of coating wax or solvent such as oil benzene and IPA, put the soaked rag on the remains lightly, and then wipe them off with the rag.

  • Keep solvent from touching the resin or rubber parts. Do not use coating wax or solvents while the component surface temperature is hot due to hot weather etc.

  • If the coated surface is swollen out due to seams or moisture, expose the vehicle to the sunlight for a few hours or heat the seam and swollen portions using a dryer etc.

  • Follow all government and local regulations concerning disposal of refuse when disposing of wrap guard.

2.

Check the whole vehicle body for flaking paint, damage by transportation, corrosion, dirt, cracks or blisters.

 
  • It is better to determine an inspection pattern in order to avoid missing an area, since the total inspection area is wide.

  • Do not repair the body paint unless absolutely necessary. Also, if the vehicle is in need of repair to remove scratches or corroded paint, the repair area must be limited to the minimum. Re-painting and spray painting must be avoided as much as possible.

3.

Check each window glass for scratches carefully. Slight damage may be removed by polishing with glass polishing agent (cerium oxide, etc.). (Fill a cap half with cerium oxide, and add warm water to it. Then agitate the content until it turns to wax. Apply this wax to a soft cloth, and polish the glass with it.)

4.

Check each portion of the vehicle body and underside components for the formation of rust. If rust is discovered, remove it with sandpaper of #80 to #180 and treat the surface with rust preventive. After this treatment is completed, flush the portion thoroughly, and prepare the surface for repair painting.

5.

Check each portion of body and all of the exterior parts for deformation or distortion. Also, check each light lens for cracks.

6.

Peel the protective tape, vinyl wrapping and identification seal attached to the following places.

  • Seat

  • Door trim

  • Floor carpet

  • Side sill

  • Handle ‐ door outer

  • Cover ‐ handle outer

  • Instrument panel

  • Driver monitoring unit

  • Cargo room hook
