Subaru Forester: Starting and operating / Fuel
CAUTION
- Use of a fuel which is low in
quality or use of an inappropriate

to the engine and/or fuel system.
- Some gas stations, particularly
those in high altitude areas, offer
fuels posted as regular octane
gasoline with an octane rating
below 87 AKI (90 RON). Use of
those fuels is not recommended.
The engine is designed to operate using
unleaded gasoline with an octane rating
of 87 AKI (90 RON) or higher.

Other information:
The traction grades, from highest to
lowest, are AA, A, B and C. Those
grades represent the tire’s ability to
stop on wet pavement as measured
under controlled conditions on specified
government test surfaces of
asphalt and concrete.
A tire marked C may have poor
traction performance...
WARNING
Never drill the frame or under-body
of your vehicle to install a commercial
trailer hitch. If you do, dangerous
exhaust gas, water or mud may
enter the passenger compartment
through the drilled hole. Exhaust
gas contains carbon monoxide, a
colorless and odorless gas which is
dangerous, or even lethal, if inhaled...
