Keys and doors/Rear gate (Outback)
gate has stopped completely
after opening it.
.Before leaving the vehicle, al-
ways remove the key from the
ignition switch for safety (models
without“keyless access with
push-button start system”) and
never allow an unattended child
to remain in the vehicle. Failure
to follow this procedure could
result in injury to a child operat-
ing the power rear gate.
.The driver should be aware of
and pay careful attention to his/
her responsibilities.
.The power rear gate button
should only be used to open
and close the rear gate when
the area around the rear gate is
clearly visible and when you
have checked that there is no
danger of people being caught in
the gate.
CAUTION
.When closing the rear gate after
opening it, make sure to use the
power rear gate. If you close the
rear gate manually with extra
force, the power rear gate maybe damaged.
.Do not install any accessories
other than genuine SUBARU
parts on the rear gate. If the
weight of rear gate increases
excessively, the rear gate stay
cannot support the rear gate
sufficiently when opening the
rear gate. Also, the power rear
gate may not function properly or
may malfunction.
.Do not touch the driving rod
while the power rear gate oper-
ates or stops. Doing so may
result in injury or damage.
The power rear gate operates only when
all of the following conditions are satisfied.
.The vehicle is stopped completely.
.The outside temperature is within a
range from−228F to 1408F (from−308Cto
608C).
.The ignition switch is in the“LOCK”/
“OFF”or“ACC”position. Or, the ignition
switch is in the“ON”position and the
parking brake is applied (MT models)/the
select lever is in the“P”position (CVT
models).
We recommend using the power rear gate
function in most circumstances instead of
manual operation.
NOTE
.If the power rear gate button is
pressed repeatedly while the power
rear gate is operating, the system may
ignore the button operation in order to
avoid being damaged. Do not press the
button unnecessarily.
.It is not possible to stop the rear
gate temporarily while opening be-
tween the completely closed position
and approximately 12 in (30 cm) open.
If you press one of the power rear gate
buttons briefly during this range, the
rear gate will be closed.
.If the vehicle starts to move while
the power rear gate is operating, the
system sounds a buzzer and closes the
rear gate automatically. At this time, if
the system detects jamming, it will
deactivate the power rear gate and the
rear gate will not be closed. If this
occurs, close the rear gate manually.
.If you try to open the rear gate using
the power rear gate function immedi-
ately after closing the rear gate using
the power rear gate function, an elec-
tronic chirp will sound and the rear
gate will not open. Wait for a while
before trying to open the rear gate via
the power rear gate function.
