door locks.
7. Close the door. An electronic chirp will
sound once, the turn signal lights will flash

mately every 2 seconds), indicating that
the system has been armed for surveil-lance. NOTE . The system can be armed even if the
engine hood, the windows and/or
moonroof are opened. Always make
sure that they are fully closed before
arming the system. .
The 30-second standby time can be
eliminated if you prefer. Have it per-
formed by your SUBARU dealer.. The system is in the standby mode
for a 30-second period after locking the
doors with the remote transmitter. The
security indicator light will flash at
short intervals during this period.. If any of the following actions is
done during the standby period, the
system will not switch to the surveil-
lance state.
–Doors are unlocked using the
remote transmitter. – Any of the doors or the rear gate
is opened. – Ignition switch is turned to the
“ ON ”position.
& Disarming the system
Briefly press the “
”button (for less than
2 seconds) on the remote transmitter. The driver ’s door will unlock, an electronic
chirp will sound twice and the turn signal
lights will flash twice. The flashing of the
security indicator light will then change
slowly (once approximately every 3 sec-
onds from twice approximately every 2
seconds), indicating that the alarm system
has been disarmed.
To unlock all other doors and the rear
gate, briefly press the “
”button a second time within 5 seconds. NOTE
If the interval between the first and
second presses of the
“
”button (for
unlocking of all of the doors and the
rear gate) is extremely short, the sys-
tem may not respond. ! Emergency disarming
If you cannot disarm the system using the
transmitter (i.e. the transmitter is lost,
broken or the transmitter battery is too
weak), you can disarm the system without
using the transmitter.
The system can be disarmed if you turn
the ignition switch from the “LOCK ”to the
“ ON ”position with a registered key.
& Valet mode
When you choose the valet mode, the
alarm system does not operate. In valet
mode, the remote transmitter is used only
for locking and unlocking the doors and
rear gate and panic activation.
To enter the valet mode, change the
setting of your vehicle ’s alarm system for
deactivation mode. Refer to “Activating
and deactivating the alarm system ”F 2-
16. The security indicator light will con-
tinue to flash once every 3 seconds
indicating that the system is in the valet

2-20Keys and doors/Alarm system
&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.

Ignition switch
WARNING
. Never turn the ignition switch to
“ LOCK ”while the vehicle is
being driven or towed because
that will lock the steering wheel,
preventing steering control. And
when the engine is turned off, it
takes a much greater effort than
usual to steer.
. Before leaving the vehicle, al-
ways remove the key from the
ignition switch for safety and
never allow an unattended child
to remain in the vehicle. Failure
to follow this procedure could
result in injury to a child or
others. Children could operate
the power windows, the moon-
roof or other controls or even
make the vehicle move.
CAUTION
Do not attach a large key holder or
key case to either key. If it banged
against your knees or hands while
you were driving, it could turn the
ignition switch from the “ON ”posi- tion to the
“Acc ”or “LOCK ”posi-
tion, thereby stopping the engine.
Also, if the key is attached to a
keyholder or to a large bunch of
other keys, centrifugal force may act
on it as the vehicle moves, resulting
in unwanted turning of the ignitionswitch.
The ignition switch has four positions:
LOCK, Acc, ON and START.
NOTE . Keep the ignition switch in the
“ LOCK ”position when the engine is
not running. . Using electrical accessories for a
long time with the ignition switch in the“ ON ”or “Acc ”position can cause the
battery to go dead. .
If the ignition switch will not move
from the “LOCK ”position to the “Acc ”
position, turn the steering wheel
slightly to the left and right as you turn
the ignition switch. & LOCK
The key can only be inserted or removed
in this position. The ignition switch will lock
the steering wheel when you remove the
key.
If turning the key is difficult, turn the
steering wheel slightly to the right and left
as you turn the key.
The key can be turned from “Acc ”to
“ LOCK ”only when the select lever is in the
“ P ”position.
