Immediatelytakeyourvehicleto
your nearest SUBARU dealer to
have the system checked. Unless
checked and properly repaired, theseatbelt pretensioners and/or SRS
airbags will operate improperly (e.g.
SRS airbags may inflate in a very
minor collision or not inflate in a
severe collision), which may in-
crease the risk of injury.
&SRS airbag system servicing
WARNING
.When discarding an airbag mod-
ule or scrapping the entire vehi-
cle damaged by a collision, con-

system. For required servicing of
the SRS airbag, consult your
nearest SUBARU dealer. Tamper-
ing with or disconnecting the
system’s wiring could result in
accidental inflation of the SRS
airbag or could make the system
inoperative, which may result in
serious injury.

Immobilizer
The immobilizer system is designed to
prevent an unauthorized person from
starting the engine. Only keys registered

system, however, is not a 100% anti-theft
guaranty.
For models with“keyless access with
push-button start system”:
If you press the push-button ignition
switch when carrying an unregistered
access key, the switch will not turn to the
“ON”position and the engine will not start.
For models without“keyless access
with push-button start system”:
Even if an unregistered key fits into the
ignition switch and can be turned to the
“START”position, the engine will auto-
matically stop after several seconds.

of the following procedures.
.Perform the procedure described in
“Starting engine”F9-19 (models with
“keyless access with push-button start
system”).

drive, especially when small chil-
dren are in your vehicle.

belts and child restraints, locking
the doors reduces the chance of

accident.
It also helps prevent passengers
from falling out by preventing a door
from being accidentally opened, and
intruders from unexpectedly open-
ing doors and entering your vehicle.
