Official summary

The 2016 my forester service manual (located in the service diagnostics section of stis) requires internet explorer (ie) 11 or higher. All sds notebooks are currently running internet explorer 8 and will be upgraded to internet explorer 11 by early fall 2015. This is the only service manual that requires internet explorer 11 at this time. All other service manuals will work with internet explorer 8.

Vehicles covered

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
