Subaru Forester: Ashtray (if equipped)
- Do not use ashtrays as waste receptacles or leave a lighted cigarette in an ashtray. This could cause a fire.
- Always extinguish matches and cigarettes before putting them into the ashtray, and then close the ashtray securely. If you keep the ashtray open, the fire on the cigarette tip may spread to another cigarette butt and start a fire.
- Do not put flammable material in the ashtray.
- Do not leave a lot of cigarette butts in the ashtray.
The portable ashtray can be installed in each cup holder. For the locations of the cup holders, refer to “Cup holders”.
When using the ashtray, open the lid of the ashtray. When removing the ashtray from a cup holder, pull the ashtray upwards.
Fully close the lid after using the ashtray to help reduce residual smoke.
NOTE
Particles of ash and tobacco will accumulate
around the hinges of the ashtray’s
inner lid. Clean them off using a
toothbrush or another narrow-ended
implement.
