& How to use the rear view camera
When the shift lever or select lever is set to “R ”, the rear view camera automatically

positions, the image before setting to “R ”
is displayed.

2. Set the shift lever or select lever to “R ”.
NOTE . For models with the genuine
SUBARU navigation system, the image
of the rear view camera has priority
over other screen displays. To operate
other screens, set the shift lever (MT
models) or select lever (AT and CVT
models) to a position other than “R ”.
. The image of the rear view camera is
horizontally reversed as is the case
with the vehicle rearview mirror or the
side view mirror. .

the rearview camera in the following
cases. This is not a malfunction of thecamera.

night, in a tunnel, etc.). – The vehicle is in an extremely hot
or cold place.– An object (such as raindrops,
snow, dirt, etc.) that disturbs the
view of the rear view camera sticks

transmitter feature
Your remote engine start transmitter is
equipped with a unique bidirectional con-
firmation feature. This feature will allow
the transmitter ’s backlit button to display
the status of the system under the condi-
tion that the vehicle and transmitter are
within the operational range of the system.
Typical transmitter button flash sequences
are outlined in the following chart. Transmitter flash sequence Feature description
Flashes when button is pressed Indicates that the system is transmitting an RF signal.
Two long flashes following re-
mote start activation (transmit-
ter button is pressed two times
within 3 seconds) Indicates that the transmitter did not receive the remote start
activation confirmation from the vehicle system. The transmitter
will automatically send one additional remote start activation
attempt. This usually occurs when the operational range is at its
limit or has been exceeded.
One flash following remote
start activation (transmitter
button is pressed two times
within 3 seconds) Indicates that the engine is running via remote start. If the
transmitter is moved outside of the operating range of the
system, this sequence will timeout after the normal 15-minute
vehicle run cycle.
2 flashes every 5 seconds Indicates that the engine is running via remote start. If the
transmitter is removed outside of the operating range of the
system, this sequence will timeout after the normal 15-minute
vehicle run cycle.
3 flashes Indicates that the engine has turned off due to a remote start
system 15-minute timeout, vehicle safety parameter or normal shutdown.
