tered the second time is identical to that
entered the first time.
NOTE
If the code entered the second time is
not identical to the code entered the
first time, an error will occur. 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 trans-
mitter 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 fin-
ished programming 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. TDeleting old transmitter codes
The control unit of the keyless entry sys-
tem 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 lost transmit-
ter’s code remains in the memory. For se-
curity reasons, lost transmitter codes
should be deleted from the memory.
To delete old transmitter codes, program four transmitter codes into the system. If
you have only one current transmitter,
program it four times. If you have two cur-
rent transmitters, program each one twice.
If you have three current transmitters, pro-
gram two of them once and the third one
twice. This process will leave only current
transmitter codes in the system’s memory.
NOTE
Make sure no one else is operating
their keyless entry system within range
of your vehicle when programming
transmitters. If someone else were to
operate their remote transmitter while
you are programming your transmit-
ters, it is possible that their transmitter
code will be programmed into your
system, allowing them unauthorized
access to your vehicle.
Alarm system
The alarm system helps to protect your
vehicle and valuables from theft. The horn
sounds and the turn signal lights flash if
someone attempts to break into your vehi-
cle. The starter motor is also interrupted to
prevent starting the vehicle without a key.
The system can be armed and disarmed
with the remote transmitter.
The system does not operate when the
key is inserted into the ignition switch.
Your vehicle’s alarm system has been set
for activation at the time of shipment from
the factory. You can set the system for de-
activation yourself or have it done by your
SUBARU dealer. „
System operation
The alarm system will give the following
alarm when triggered: y The vehicle’s horn will sound and the
turn signal lights will flash for 30 seconds. y If any door or the rear gate remains
open after the 30-second period, the horn
will continue to sound for a maximum of 3
minutes. If the door and the rear gate are
closed while the horn is sounding, the
horn will stop sounding with a delay of up
to 30 seconds.

seconds (standby time), the indicator
lights will then flash slowly (twice approxi-
mately every two seconds), indicating that
the system has been armed for surveil-
lance.

engine hood, the windows and/or
moonroofs are opened. Always make
sure that they are fully closed before
