ImmobilizerThe immobilizer system is designed to
prevent an unauthorized person from
starting the engine. Only keys registered
with your vehicle ’s immobilizer system can
be used to operate your vehicle. Even if
an unregistered key fits into the ignition
switch and can be turned to the “START”
position, the engine will automatically stop
after several seconds.
Each immobilizer key contains a trans-
ponder in which the key ’s ID code is
stored. When a key is inserted into the
ignition switch and turned to the “ON”
position, the transponder transmits the
key ’s ID code to the immobilizer system ’s
receiver. If the transmitted ID code
matches the ID code registered in the
immobilizer system, the system allows the
engine to be started. Since the ID code is
transmitted and acted upon almost in-
stantly, the immobilizer system does not
impede normal starting of the engine.
If the engine fails to start, pull out the key
once before trying again. (Refer to the
“Ignition switch ”section [chapter 3].)
This device complies with Part 15 of
the FCC Rules and with RSS-210 of
Industry Canada. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful inter-
ference, and (2) this device must

pressly approved by the party respon-
sible for compliance could void the
user
’s authority to operate the equip-
ment.

drive, especially when small chil-
dren are in your vehicle.

locked before starting to drive.&Battery drainage prevention
functionWhen a door or the rear gate (Station
wagon) is not completely closed and the
dome light, ignition switch light, and door
open warning light remain illuminated as a result, the lights are automatically turned
off by the battery drainage prevention
function after 10 minutes of illumination
to prevent the battery from going dead.
The operational/non-operational setting of
this function can be changed by a
SUBARU dealer. Contact the nearest
SUBARU dealer if you would like to
change the setting.
NOTE.
When leaving the vehicle, please
make sure that all doors and the rear
