8. Pull the upper tether belt straight up to secure the
child restraint system firmly by taking up the slack in
the belt.
9. Put the loose end of the tether belts behind the seatback.
10.Before seating a child in the child restraint system,
try to move seatback and forth and left and right to ver-
ify that it is held securely in position.
11.To remove the child rest raint system, follow the re-
verse procedures of installation.
If you have any question concerning proper child re-
straint system installation, ask your SUBARU dealer. „
Installing a booster seat
yChild restraint systems and seatbelts can be-
come hot in a vehicle that has been closed up
in sunny weather; they could burn a small child.
Check the child restraint system before you
place a child in it. y Do not leave an unsecured child restraint
system in your vehicle. Unsecured child re-
straint systems can be thrown around inside of
the vehicle in a sudden stop, turn or accident;
they can strike and injure vehicle occupants as
well as result in serious injuries or death to the
child.
When you install a child restraint system, fol-
low the manufacturer’s instructions supplied
with it. After installing the child restraint sys-
tem, check to ensure that it is held securely in
position. If it is not held tight and secure, the
danger of your child suffering personal injury in

Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags
– CONTINUED –
Put children aged 12 and under in the rear seat
properly restrained at all times. The SRS airbag
deploys with considerable speed and force and
can injure or even kill children, especially if
they are 12 years of age and under and are not
restrained or improperly restrained. Because
children are lighter and weaker than adults,
their risk of being injured from deployment is
greater.
Consequently, we strongly recommend that
ALL children (including those in child seats and
those that have outgrown child restraint devic- es) sit in the REAR seat properly restrained at
all times in a child restraint device or in a seat-
belt, whichever is appropriate for the child’s
age, height and weight.
Secure ALL types of child restraint devices (in-
cluding forward facing child seats) in the REAR
seats at all times.
According to accident st
atistics, children are
safer when properly restrained in the rear seat-
ing positions than in the front seating posi- tions.
For instructions and precautions concerning
the child restraint system, see the “Child re-
straint systems” section in this chapter.y NEVER INSTALL A REARWARD FACING
CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT SEAT. DOING SO
RISKS SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO THE
CHILD BY PLACING TH E CHILD’S HEAD TOO
CLOSE TO THE SRS AIRBAG.y Never allow a child to stand up, or to kneel on
the front passenger’s seat, or never hold a child
on your lap or in your arms. The SRS airbag de-
ploys with considerable force and can injure or
even kill the child.

„ Replacing lost transmitters
„Replacing
„ Lost transmitters (keyless entry system)If you lose a transmitter or want to purchase additional
transmitters (up to four can be programmed), you
should re-program all of your transmitters for security
reasons. It is recommended that you have your dealer
program all of your transmitters into your system. TProgramming the transmitters
The keyless entry system is equipped with a special
code learning feature that allows you to program new
transmitter codes into the system or to delete old
ones. The system can learn up to four unique transmit-
ter codes. The four transmitter codes may be the same or different. Programming transmitter codes into system:

with the second digit (counti
ng from the left) and finish-
ing with the eighth digit.
NOTE y When you finish entering the eighth digit, an
electronic tone will sound for 30 seconds. y If the interval between one push of the switch
and the next exceeds five seconds, an error will
occur. In this event, perform the procedure again
beginning with part 4. If an error occurs six times,
perform the procedure again starting with part 3.
8. Before the electronic tone stops sounding, use the
power door locking switch to again enter the transmit-
ter code beginning with the leftmost digit.
NOTE
If you do not start entering the number using the
locking switch before the electronic tone stops
sounding, an error will occur. In this event, per-
form the procedure again beginning with part 3.
9. When you have finished entering the code a sec-
ond time, an electronic tone will sound for one second
to indicate completion of registration, provided the
code entered the second time is identical to that en-
tered the first time.
NOTE
If the code entered the second time is not identical
to the code entered the first time, an error will oc-
cur. In this event, perform the procedure again be-
ginning with part 5. If an error occurs five times,
perform the procedure again starting with part 3.
10.If you wish to program another transmitter code
into the system (up to four transmitter codes can be
programmed into the system ), perform the procedure
beginning with part 4. When you have finished pro-
gramming all of the necessary transmitter codes into
the system, remove the key from the ignition switch.
11.Test every registered transmitter to confirm correct
operation. T Deleting old transmitter codes
The control unit of the keyless entry system has four
memory locations to store transmitter codes, giving it
the ability to operate with up to four transmitters. When
you lose a transmitter, the lo st transmitter’s code re-
mains in the memory. For security reasons, lost trans-
mitter codes should be deleted from the memory.
To delete old transmitter codes, program four trans-mitter codes into the system. If you have only one cur-
rent transmitter, program it four times. If you have two
current transmitters, program each one twice. If you
have three current transmit ters, program two of them

„ Valet mode
„Valet modeWhen you choose the valet mode, the security system
does not operate. In valet mode, the remote transmit- ter is used only for locking and unlocking the doors
and panic activation.
To enter the valet mode, chang
e the setting of your ve-
hicle’s alarm system for deactivation mode. (Refer to
“Activating and deactivating the alarm system” in thissection.)
To exit valet mode, change the setting of your vehi-
cle’s alarm system for activation mode. (Refer to “Ac- tivating and deactiva ting the alarm system” in this sec-
tion.)
NOTE
The security indicator light does not flash during the valet mode. „ Passive arming
When passive arming mode has been programmed by
the dealer, arming of the syst em is automatically ac-
complished without using the remote transmitter. Note
that in this mode, DOORS MUST BE MANUALLY LOCKED. T To enter the passive mode
If you wish to program the passive arming mode, have
it done by your SUBARU dealer.

The security indicator light flashes when the alarm system has been tri ggered. Also, the number of flash-
es indicates the location of unauthorized intrusion or
the severity of impact on the vehicle. y When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion, the indicator light will light for 1 second and then
flash as follows: When a door was opened: 5 times
When the ignition switch was turned to the “ON” po-
sition: 3 times
When a strong impact or multiple impacts were sensed: twice (only vehicles with shock sensors
(dealer option))
When a light impact was sensed: once (only vehi-
cles with shock sensors (dealer option))
NOTE
Any of the above indicator light flashings will re-
cur each time the ignition
switch is turned to the
“ON” position. Rearming the alarm system can-
cels the flashing. „ Shock sensors (dealer option)
The shock sensors trigger the alarm system when
they sense impacts applied to the vehicle and when
any of their electric wires is cut. The alarm system
causes the horn to sound and the turn signal lights to
flash for a short time when the sensed impact is weak,
but it warns of a strong im pact or multiple impacts by
sounding the horn and flashing the turn signal lights,
both lasting approximately 30 seconds.
If you desire, your SUBARU dealer can connect them
and set them for activation or deactivation.
NOTE y The shock sensors are not always able to sense
impacts caused by breaking in, and cannot sense
an impact that does not cause vibration (such as
