Replacement of brake pad and lining
J Audible brake pad wear indicator
OM-H0163
The front disc brakes and the right side rear disc brake have audible
wear indicators 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 pos-
sible.
CAUTION
If you continue to drive despite the scraping noise from the audi-
ble brake pad wear indicator, it will result in the need for costly
brake rotor repair or replacement.

parts. After replacement, the new parts must be broken in as follows:

the brake pedal lightly. Repeat this five or more times.
