Vehicles with a keyless access with push button start system The door cannot be locked if the access key is left inside the vehi-
cle.

windows are linked to door operations. Therefore, when a door is opened, its
window opens slightly. When a door is closed, its window closes completely.
However, if the battery has discharged or is disconnected, this function will not operate. ( →P. 404)
■If the keyless access with push button start system has been deacti-
vated in a customized setting (vehicles with a keyless access with

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
■Before recharging
When recharging, the battery produces hydrogen gas which is flammable
and explosive. Therefore, before recharging:
●If recharging with the battery installed on the vehicle, be sure to discon-
nect the ground cable.
●Make sure the power switch on the charger is off when connecting and
disconnecting the charger cables to the battery.
■After recharging/reconnecting the battery (vehicles with a keyless
access with push button start system)
●Unlocking the doors using the keyless access with push button start sys-
tem may not be possible immediately after reconnecting the battery. If
this happens, use the remote keyless entry system or the mechanical
key to lock/unlock the doors.
●Start the engine with the push-button ignition switch in “ACC” mode. The
engine may not start with the push-button ignition switch turned off. How-
ever, the engine will operate normally from the second attempt.
●The push-button ignition switch mode is recorded by the vehicle. If the
battery is reconnected, the vehicle will return the push-button ignition
switch mode to the status it was in before the battery was disconnected.
Make sure to turn off the engine before disconnect the battery. Take extra
care when connecting the battery if the push-button ignition switch mode
prior to discharge is unknown.
If the engine will not start even after multiple attempts, contact your
SUBARU dealer.

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
■Use a CR2016 (vehicles without a keyless access with push button
start system) or CR1632 (vehicles with a keyless access with push but-
ton start system) lithium battery
●Batteries can be purchased at your SUBARU dealer, local electrical
appliance shops or camera stores.
●Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the
manufacturer.
●Dispose of used batteries according to local laws.
■If the key battery is depleted
The following symptoms may occur:
●The keyless access with push button start system (if equipped) and
remote keyless entry system will not function properly.
●The operational range will be reduced.
■When putting the module back (vehicles without a keyless access with
push button start system)Remove the depleted battery.
Insert a new battery with the
“+” terminal facing up.
STEP3
Insert the module from directly above.
Inserting it on an angle may prevent the
key buttons from operating properly.
