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 yourvehicle.
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
deactivation yourself or have it done by
your SUBARU dealer. & System operation
The alarm system will give the following
alarms when triggered. . The vehicle ’s horn will sound for 30
seconds.. The turn signal lights will flash for 30
seconds.
If any of the doors or the rear gate remains
open after the 30-second period, the horn
will continue to sound for a maximum of 3
minutes. If any of the doors 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:.
Opening any of the doors or the rear
gate. Physical impact to the vehicle, such as
forced entry (only vehicles with shock
sensors (dealer option))
NOTE
The alarm system can be set to trigger
the illumination of the following interiorlights. . Dome light (illuminates only when
the dome light switch is in the “DOOR ”
position) . Map lights
The notifications regarding the dome
light and the map lights are deactivated
as the factory setting. A SUBARU
dealer can activate the system. Contact
your SUBARU dealer for details. & Activating and deactivating
the alarm system
To change the setting of your vehicle ’s
alarm system for activation or deactiva-
tion, do the following.
1. Disarm the alarm system. Refer to “ Disarming the system ”F 2-18.
2. Sit in the driver ’s seat and shut all doors and the rear gate.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the
“ON ”
position.
4. Hold down the UNLOCK side of the driver ’s power door locking switch, open
the driver ’s door within the following 1
second, and wait 10 seconds without
releasing the switch. The setting will then
be changed as follows.

You may have the above setting
change done by your SUBARU dealer.

2-20Keys and doors
& Tripped sensor identification
The security indicator light flashes when
the alarm system has been triggered.
Also, the number of flashes indicates the
location of unauthorized intrusion or the
severity of impact on the vehicle.
When the ignition switch is turned to the “ ON ”position, the indicator light will
illuminate for 1 second and then flash asfollows. . When a door or rear gate was opened:
5 times. When the ignition switch was turned to
the “ON ”position by using a key not
registered with your immobilizer system: 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 vehicles with shock sensors (dealer option))
NOTE
Any of the above indicator light flash-
ing patterns will recur each time the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON ”
position. Rearming the alarm system
cancels the flashing pattern of the
security indicator light. &
Shock sensors (dealer op- tion)
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 impact or multiple impacts by
sounding the horn and flashing the turn
signal lights, both lasting approximately 30seconds.
If you desire, your SUBARU dealer can
connect them and set them for activation
or deactivation. NOTE . The shock sensors are not always
able to sense impacts caused by break-
ing in, and cannot sense an impact that
does not cause vibration (such as
breaking the glass using a rescuehammer).. The shock sensors may sense vi-
bration like those shown in the follow-
ing list and trigger the alarm system.
Select the settings of the alarm system
and shock sensors appropriately de-
pending on where you usually park
your vehicle. Example:
–Vibration from construction site
– Vibration in multistory car park
– Vibration from trains
. You can have the sensitivity of the
shock sensors adjusted to your pre-
ference by your SUBARU dealer.
