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
accept any interference received, in-
cluding interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Changes or modifications not ex-
pressly approved by the party respon-
sible for compliance could void the
user
’s authority to operate the equip-
ment.
NOTETo protect your vehicle from theft,
please pay close attention to the fol-
lowing security precautions:
. Never leave your vehicle unattended
with its keys inside.
. Before leaving your vehicle, close all
windows and lock the doors and rear
gate (Station wagon).
. Do not leave spare keys or any
record of your key number in the
vehicle.
CAUTION
. Do not place the key under direct
sunlight or anywhere it may
become hot. .
Do not get the key wet. If the key
gets wet, wipe it dry with a cloth
immediately.
& Security ID plate1) Key number plate
2) Security ID plateThe security ID is stamped on the security
ID plate attached to the key set. Write
down the security ID and keep it in
another safe place, not in the vehicle.
This number is needed to make a replace-
ment key if you lose your key or lock it
inside the vehicle.
This number is also needed for replace-
ment or repair of the engine control unit,
integrated unit, and combination meter.

& Security indicator lightTurbo modelsNon-turbo modelsThe security indicator light deters potential
thieves by indicating that the vehicle is equipped with an immobilizer system. It
begins flashing approximately 60 seconds
after the ignition switch is turned from the
“ON
”position to the “ACC”or “LOCK”
position or immediately after the key is
pulled out.
If the security indicator light does not flash,
the immobilizer system may be faulty. If
this occurs, contact your SUBARU dealer
as soon as possible.
In case an unauthorized key is used (e.g.
an imitation key), the security indicator
light comes on.
NOTEEven if the security indicator light
flashes irregularly or its fuse blows
(the light does not flash if its fuse is
blown), the immobilizer system will
function normally.& Key replacementYour key number plate and security ID
plate will be required if you ever need a
replacement key made. Any new key must
be registered for use with your vehicle’ s
immobilizer system before it can be used.
Up to four keys can be registered for use
with one vehicle.
For security, all the keys registered with
your vehicle’ s immobilizer system will have their ID codes erased and re-
registered when a new key is made.
Therefore, all of your vehicle
’s keys must
be presented when a new key is regis-
tered. Any key that is not re-registered
when a new key is made cannot be used
after the other keys are re-registered. For
information on replacement keys and on
the registration of keys with your immo-
bilizer system, contact your SUBARU
dealer.
NOTEA vehicle that is equipped with the
remote engine start system as the
dealer option can register up to three
keys for use with one vehicle.

Instruments and controls
! Manual transmission vehiclesThe key can be turned from “ACC”to
“LOCK” only when the key is pushed in
while turning it.& ACCIn this position the electrical accessories
(radio, accessory power outlet, etc.) can
be used.&ONThis is the normal operating position after
the engine is started.
&START
CAUTION
Do not turn the ignition switch to the
“START ”position while the engine
is running.
The engine is started in this position. The
starter cranks the engine to start it. When
the key is released (after the engine has
started), the key automatically returns to
the “ON ”position.
If your registered key fails to start the
engine, pull out the key once (the security
indicator light will blink), and then insert
the key in the ignition switch and turn it to
the “START ”position and again try to start
the engine.NOTEThe engine may not start in the follow-
ing cases:
. The key grip is touching another key
or a metallic key holder.. The key is near another key that
contains an immobilizer transponder.

. The warning light comes on while the
vehicle is running.
. If the electrical circuit of the Vehicle
Dynamics Control system itself becomes
faulty, the warning light only comes on. At
this time, the ABS (Anti-lock Brake Sys-
tem) remains fully operational.
. The warning light comes on when the
electronic control system of the ABS/
Vehicle Dynamics Control system be-
comes faulty.
The Vehicle Dynamics Control system
provides its ABS control through the
electrical circuit of the ABS system.
Accordingly, if the ABS is inoperative, the
Vehicle Dynamics Control system be-
comes unable to provide ABS control. As
a result, the Vehicle Dynamics Control
system also becomes inoperative, caus-
ing the warning light to come on. Though
both the Vehicle Dynamics Control and
ABS systems are inoperative in this case,
the ordinary functions of the brake system
are still available. You will be safe while
driving with this condition, but have your
vehicle checked at a SUBARU dealer as
soon as possible.NOTEIf the warning light behavior is as
shown in the following, the Vehicle
Dynamics Control system may be con- sidered normal.
.
The warning light comes on right
after the engine is started but goes out
immediately, remaining off.
. The warning light comes on after
engine startup and goes off while the
vehicle is subsequently being driven.
. The warning light comes on during
driving, but it goes out immediately and
remains off.
! Vehicle Dynamics Control OFF in-
dicator light
. It comes on when the Vehicle Dy-
namics Control OFF switch is pressed.
. It also comes on when the Vehicle
Dynamics Control system is deactivated.
NOTE. The light may stay on for a while
after the engine has been started,
especially in cold weather. This does
not indicate the existence of a problem.
The light should go out as soon as the
engine has warmed up.
. The indicator light comes on when
the engine has developed a problem
and the CHECK ENGINE warning light/
malfunction indicator lamp is on.
The Vehicle Dynamics Control system is
probably faulty under the following condi-
tion. Have your vehicle checked at a SUBARU dealer as soon as possible.
.
The light does not go out even after the
lapse of several minutes (the engine has
warmed up) after the engine has started.
&
Security indicator light
This indicator light shows the status of the
alarm system. It also indicates operation
of the immobilizer system.
! Alarm system
It blinks to show the driver the operational
status of the alarm system. For detailed
information, refer to the “Alarm system”
section in chapter 2.
! Immobilizer system
This light blinks approximately 60 seconds
after the ignition switch is turned from
“ON ”position to the “ACC”or “LOCK”
position or immediately after the key is
pulled out. (Refer to the “Door locks ”
section in chapter 2.)
If the indicator light does not flash, it may
indicate that immobilizer system may be
faulty. Contact your nearest SUBARU
dealer immediately.
In the event that an unauthorized key (for
example, an unauthorized duplicate) is
used, the security indicator light comes
on.
