Subaru Legacy: Parking tips
When parking your vehicle, always perform the following items.
● Apply the parking brake.
● For MT models, put the shift lever in the “1” (1st) for upgrade or “R” (Reverse)
for a downgrade.
● For AT and CVT models, put the select lever in the “P” (Park) position. Never
rely on the transmission alone to hold the vehicle.
When parking on a hill, always turn the steering wheel as described here. When the vehicle is headed up the hill, the front wheels should be turned away from the curb.
When facing downhill, the front wheels should be turned into the curb.
