Remote keyless entry sys-
tem
This device complies with Part 15 of
the FCC Rules and with RSS-210 of In-
dustry Canada. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) This
device may not cause harmful interfer-
ence, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including in-
terference that may cause undesired
operation.
Changes or modifications not express-
ly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
Two transmitters are provided for your ve- hicle.
The keyless entry system has the follow-
ing functions.y
Locking and unlocking the doors (and
rear gate) without a keyy Unlocking the rear gate without key
y Sounding a panic alarm
y Arming and disarming the alarm sys-
tem. See the next section “Alarm system”
for detailed information.
The operable distance of the keyless entry
system is approximately 30 feet (10
meters). However, this distance will vary
depending on environmental conditions.
The system’s operable distance will be
shorter in areas near a facility or electronic
equipment emitting strong radio waves
such as a power plant, broadcast station,
TV tower, or remote controller of home
electronic appliances.
The keyless entry system does not oper-
ate when the key is inserted in the ignitionswitch. : Rear gate unlock button

crease. Replace the battery as soon as
possible.
To replace the battery:
0
1. Open the transmitter case using a flat-
head screwdriver.
2. Remove the old battery from the hold-
er.
1) Negative (–) side facing up
3. Replace with a new battery (Type
CR2025 or equivalent) making sure to in-
stall the new battery with the negative (–)
side facing up.
4. Refit the removed half of the transmit- ter case.
After the battery is replaced, the trans-
mitter must be synchronized with the
keyless entry system’s control unit.
Press either the “ ” or “ ” button
six times to synchronize the unit.
„ Replacing lost transmitters
If you lose a transmitter or want to pur-
chase additional transmitters (up to four can be programmed), you should re-pro-
gram all of your transmitters for security
reasons. It is recommended that you have
your dealer program all of your transmit-
ters into your system. T
Programming 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 sys-
tem can learn up to four unique transmitter
codes. The four transmitter codes may be the same or different.

place once to indicate completion of regis-
tration, provided the code entered the sec-
ond 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 tooperate 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 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 alarm operation
The alarm system will give the following
alarms 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 (or the rear gate) is
closed while the horn is sounding, the
horn will stop sounding with a delay of up
to 30 seconds.
The alarm is triggered by:
