Subaru Outback (BR): Cooling system
WARNING
Never attempt to remove the radiator cap until the engine has been shut off and
has cooled down completely. Since the coolant is under pressure, you may suffer
serious burns from a spray of boiling hot coolant when the cap is removed.
CAUTION
● Vehicles are filled at the factory with SUBARU Super Coolant that does not
require the first change for 11 years/137,500 miles (11 years/220,000 km). This
coolant should not be mixed with any other brand or type of coolant during this
period. Mixing with a different coolant will reduce the life of the coolant. Should
it be necessary to top off the coolant for any reason, use only SUBARU Super Coolant.
If the SUBARU Super Coolant is diluted with another brand or type, the maintenance
interval is shortened to that of the mixing coolant.
● Do not splash the engine coolant over painted parts. The alcohol contained
in the engine coolant may damage the paint surface.
