2016 SUBARU IMPREZA window

the cabin is stored in the roof side
(between the front pillar and a point over
the rear seat). An“SRS AIRBAG”mark is
located at the top of each center pillar.
In a moderate to severe side impact
collision, the SRS curtain airbag on the
impacted side of the vehicle deploys
between the occupant and the side
window and supplements the seatbelt by
reducing the impact on the occupant ’s
head.
For Crosstrek models, in a rollover, SRS
curtain airbags on both sides of the
vehicle deploy between the occupant
and the side window and supplement the
seatbelt by reducing the impact to the
occupant ’s head.
In an offset frontal collision, SRS curtain
airbags on both sides of the vehicle
deploy between the occupant and the
side window and supplement the seatbelt
by reducing the impact to the occupant ’s
head and chest.
! Operation
The SRS side airbag and SRS curtain
airbag can function only when the ignition
switch is in the “ON”position.
The following airbags deploy indepen-
dently of each other since each has its
own impact sensor. .
Driver ’s SRS side airbag
. Front passenger ’s SRS side airbag
. SRS curtain airbag (right-hand side)
. SRS curtain airbag (left-hand side)
Therefore, they may not both deploy in the
same accident. Also, the SRS side airbag
and SRS curtain airbag deploys indepen-
dently of the driver ’s and front passen-
ger ’s SRS frontal airbags in the steering
wheel and instrument panel.
An impact sensor, which senses impact
force, is located in each of the following
locations.
. In the left and right front doors
. In the left and right center pillars
. In the left and right rear wheel houses
. Under the rear center seat
For Crosstrek models, a rollover sensor is
also located inside the airbag control
module.
If both of the following sensors together
sense an impact force above a predeter-
mined level in a side collision, the control
module causes both the SRS side airbag
and curtain airbag on the impacted side
to inflate regardless of whether the rear
wheel house impact sensor on the same
side senses an impact.
. the impact sensor that is located under the rear center seat
.
one of the center pillar impact sensors
or front door impact sensors
If both of the following sensors together
sense an impact force above a predeter-
mined level in a side collision, the control
module causes only the SRS curtain
airbag on the impacted side to inflate.
. the impact sensor that is located under
the rear center seat
. one of the rear wheel house impact
sensors
For Crosstrek models, if the rollover
sensor detects rollover of the vehicle, the
control module inflates the SRS curtain
airbags on both sides. At this time, the
driver ’
s and front passenger ’s seatbelt
pretensioners also operate at the same
time.
After the deployment, the SRS side airbag
immediately starts to deflate. The time
required from detection of an impact to
deflation of an SRS side airbag after
deployment is shorter than the blink of
an eye.
The SRS

curtain airbag remains inflated
for a while following deployment then
slowly deflates.

&Precautions against vehicle
modification
WARNING
To avoid accidental activation of the
system or rendering the system
inoperative, which may result in
serious injury, no modifications
should be made to any components
or wiring of the SRS airbag system.
This includes following modifica-
tions.
. Installation of custom steering
wheels
. Attachment of additional trim
materials to the dashboard
. Installation of custom seats
. Replacement of seat fabric or
leather
. Installation of additional fabric or
leather on the front seat
. Attachment of a hands-free mi-
crophone or any other accessory
to a front pillar, a center pillar, a
rear pillar, the windshield, a side
window, an assist grip, or any
other cabin surface that would be
near a deploying SRS curtain
airbag. .
Installation of additional electri-
cal/electronic equipment such as
a mobile two-way radio on or
near the SRS airbag system
components and/or wiring is not
advisable. This could interfere
with proper operation of the
SRS airbag system.
CAUTION
Do not perform any of the following
modifications. Such modifications
can interfere with proper operation
of the SRS airbag system.
. Attachment of any equipment
(bush bar, winches, snow plow,
skid plate, etc.) other than genu-
ine SUBARU accessory parts to
the front end.
. Modification of the suspension
system or front end structure.
. Installation of a tire of different
size and construction from the
tires specified on the vehicle
placard attached to the driver ’s
door pillar or specified for indivi-
dual vehicle models in this Own-
er ’s Manual.
. Attachment of any equipment
(side steps or side sill protectors, etc.) other than genuine SUBARU
accessory parts to the side body.
Always consult your SUBARU dealer if
you want to install any accessory parts on
your vehicle.

NOTE
. To protect your vehicle from theft,
please pay close attention to the fol-
lowing security precautions:
–Never leave your vehicle unat-
tended with its keys inside.
– Before leaving your vehicle,
close all windows and the moon-
roof, and lock the doors and rear
gate.
– Do not leave spare keys or any
record of your key number in the

& Security indicator light
Refer to “Security indicator light ”F 3-30.
& Key replacement
Your key number plate will be required if
you ever need a replacement key made.
Any new key must be registered for use
with your vehicle ’s immobilizer system
before it can be used. The maximum
number of keys that can be registered
for use with one vehicle is as follows.
. Four (models without “keyless access
with push-button start system ”)
. Seven (models with “keyless access
with push-button start system ”)
One key that has already been registered
is required in order to register a new key.
If you lose a key, the lost key ’s ID code still
remains in the memory of the vehicle’ s
immobilizer system. For security reasons,
the lost key ’s ID code should be erased
from the memory. To erase the lost key ’s
ID code, all keys that will be used are
required.
For details about new key registration and
erasing the lost key ’s ID code, contact
your SUBARU dealer.

.Turn the push-button ignition to the
“ ACC ”position (models with “keyless
access with push-button start system ”).
NOTE
Only registered keys will stop the
alarm. If the immobilizer transponder
is not registered, the alarm will not
stop.
& Arming the system
! Tips
. The system can be armed even if the
engine hood, windows and/or moonroof
are open. 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 performed
by your SUBARU dealer.
. If your vehicle is a 4-door and you open
the trunk using the access key/remote
transmitter ’s “
”button with the alarm
system armed, the system will be tem-
porarily placed in a standby state. The
system will go back to the surveillance
state upon locking the trunk.
. 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 are done
during the standby period, the system will
not switch to the surveillance state.
–Doors (including the rear gate/trunk
lid) are unlocked using the access key/
remote transmitter.
– Doors (including the rear gate/trunk
lid) are unlocked using the keyless
access function (models with “keyless
access with push-button start sys-
tem”).
– Any door (including the rear gate/
trunk lid) is opened.
– The ignition switch is turned to the
“ON ”position (models without “keyless
access with push-button start sys-
tem”).
– Push-button ignition switch is
turned to the “ACC”position (models
with “keyless access with push-button
start system ”).
! To arm the system using access
key/remote transmitter
1. Close all windows and the moonroof (if
equipped).
2. Remove the key from the ignition
switch (models without “keyless access
with push-button start system ”)/turn the
push-button ignition switch to the “OFF”
position (models with “keyless access with
push-button start system ”). 3. Open the doors and get out of the
vehicle.
4. Make sure that the engine hood (and
the trunk lid on the 4-door) are locked.
5. Close all doors (and the rear gate on
the 5-door).
