! Conditions in which front passen-
ger ’ s SRS frontal airbag is not
activated
The front passenger ’ s SRS frontal airbag
will not be activated when any of the
following conditions are met regarding the
front passenger ’ s seat:
. The seat is empty.
. The seat is equipped with an appro-
priate child restraint system and an infant
is restrained in it. (See WARNING that
follows.)
. The front passenger ’ s occupant detec-
tion system is malfunctioning.
WARNING
NEVER INSTALL A FORWARD OR
REARWARD FACING CHILD SEAT
IN THE FRONT PASSENGER ’ S SEAT
EVEN IF THE FRONT PASSEN-
GER ’ S SRS FRONTAL AIRBAG IS
DEACTIVATED. Be sure to install it
in the REAR seat in a correct
manner. Also, it is strongly recom-
mended that any forward facing
child seat or booster seat be in- stalled in the REAR seat, and that
even children who have outgrown a
child restraint system be also
seated in the REAR seat. This is
because children sitting in the front
passenger ’ s seat may be killed or
severely injured should the front
passenger ’ s SRS frontal airbag de-
ploy. REAR seats are the safest
place for children.
CAUTIONWhen the front passenger ’ s seat is
occupied by an infant in an appro-
priate child restraint system, ob-
serve the following precautions.
Failure to do so may interfere with
the proper operation of the occu-
pant detection system, activating
the front passenger ’ s SRS frontal
airbag even though that seat is
occupied by the infant in the child
restraint system.
. Do not place any article (includ-
ing electronic devices) on the
seat other than the infant in the
child restraint system. . Do not place more than one
infant in the child restraint sys-
tem.
! If the front passenger ’ s frontal
airbag ON indicator illuminates
and the OFF indicator turns off
even when an infant or a small
child is in a child restraint sys-
tem (including booster seat)
1. Turn the ignition switch to the “ LOCK ” /
“ OFF ” position.
2. Remove the child restraint system
from the seat.
3. By referring to the child restraint
manufacturer ’ s recommendations as well
as the child restraint system installation
procedures in “ Child restraint systems ”
F 1-21, correctly install the child restraint
system.
4. Turn the ignition switch to the “ ON ”
position and make sure that the front
passenger ’ s frontal airbag ON indicator
turns off and the OFF indicator illuminates.
If still the ON indicator remains illuminated
while the OFF indicator turns off, take the
following actions.
. Ensure that no article is placed on the
seat other than the child restraint system
and the child occupant.Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags/*SRS airbag (Supplemental Restraint System airbag)

Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags/*SRS airbag (Supplemental Restraint System airbag)
. Ensure that the backward-forward po-
sition and seatback of front passenger ’ s
seat are locked into place securely by
moving the seat back and forth.
If the ON indicator still remains illuminated
while the OFF indicator turns off after
taking relevant corrective actions de-
scribed above, relocate the child restraint
system to the rear seat and immediately
contact your SUBARU dealer for an
inspection.
NOTE When a child who has outgrown a child
restraint system or a small adult is
seated in the front passenger ’ s seat,
the SUBARU advanced frontal airbag
system may or may not activate the
front passenger ’ s SRS frontal airbag
depending on the occupant ’ s seating
posture. Children should always wear a
seatbelt when sitting in the seat irre-
spective of whether the airbag is
deactivated or activated. If the front
passenger ’ s SRS frontal airbag is acti-
vated (the ON indicator remains illumi-
nated while the OFF indicator turns off),
ensure that no article is placed on the
seat other than the occupant.
If the ON indicator still remains illumi-
nated while the OFF indicator turns off
despite the fact that the actions noted above have been taken, seat the child/
small adult in the rear seat and im-
mediately contact your SUBARU dealer
for an inspection. Even if the system
has passed the dealer inspection, it is
recommended that on subsequent trips
the child/small adult always take the
rear seat.
Children who have outgrown a child
restraint system should always wear the
seatbelt irrespective of whether the airbag
is deactivated or activated.
! Conditions in which front passen-
ger ’ s SRS frontal airbag is activated
The front passenger ’ s SRS frontal airbag
will be activated for deployment upon
impact when any of the following condi-
tions are met regarding the front passen-
ger ’ s seat.
. When the seat is occupied by an adult.
. When certain items (e.g. jug of water)
are placed on the seat.
! If the passenger ’ s frontal airbag
OFF indicator illuminates and
the ON indicator turns off even
when the front passenger ’ s seat
is occupied by an adult
This can be caused by the adult incor-
rectly sitting in the front passenger ’ s seat.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the “ LOCK ” / “ OFF ” position.
2. Ask the front passenger to set the
seatback to the upright position, sit up
straight in the center of the seat cushion,
correctly fasten the seatbelt, position his/
her legs out forward, and adjust the seat to
the rearmost position.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the “ ON ”
position.
If the OFF indicator remains illuminated
while the ON indicator remains off, take
the following actions.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the “ LOCK ” /
“ OFF ” position.
2. Make sure that the front passenger
does not use a blanket, seat cushion, seat
cover, seat heater or massager, etc.
3. If wearing excessive layers of clothing,
the front passenger should remove any
unnecessary items before sitting in the
front passenger ’ s seat, or should sit in a
rear seat.
4. Turn the ignition switch to the “ ON ”
position and wait 6 seconds to allow the
system to complete self-checking. Follow-
ing the system check, both indicators turn
off for 2 seconds. Now, the ON indicator
should illuminate while the OFF indicator
remains off.
If the OFF indicator still remains illumi-1-44

prevent an unauthorized person from
starting the engine. Only keys registered
with your vehicle ’ s immobilizer system can
be used to operate your vehicle. This
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.
If the engine does not start, perform either
of the following procedures.
. Perform the procedure described in
“ Starting engine ” F 9-17 (models with
“ keyless access with push-button start
system ” ).
. Pull out the key once before trying
again (models without “ keyless access
with push-button start system ” ). Refer toKeys and doors/Keys

tended with its keys inside.
– Before leaving your vehicle,
close all windows and the moon-
roof, and lock the doors.
– Do not leave spare keys or any
record of your key number in the
vehicle.
. The vehicle has a maintenance-free
type immobilizer system. & Security indicator light Refer to “ Security indicator light ” F 3-33.
& 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. & Certification for immobilizer

from falling out by preventing a door
from being accidentally opened, and
intruders from unexpectedly open-
ing doors and entering your vehicle.
