!To arm the system using the key-
less access function (if equipped)
1. Close all windows and the moonroof (if
equipped)
2. Turn the push-button ignition switch to
the “OFF ”position.
3. Open the doors and get out of the

5. Close all doors and the rear gate/trunk
lid.
1) Door lock sensor
Security indicator light
6. Carry the access key and touch the
door lock sensor. All doors (for Outback,
including the rear gate) will lock, an
electronic chirp will sound once, the
hazard warning flashers will flash once,
and the security indicator light will start
flashing rapidly. After rapid flashing for 30
seconds (standby time), the security in-
dicator light will then flash slowly (twice
approximately every 2 seconds), indicat-
ing that the system has been armed for
surveillance.
If any of the doors or the rear gate is not
fully closed, an electronic chirp sounds
five times, the hazard warning flashers
flash five times to alert you that the doors
(or the rear gate/trunk lid) are not properly
closed. When you close the door, the system will automatically arm and doors
will automatically lock.
&
Disarming the system
Perform either of the following procedures.
. Briefly press the disarm button (for less
than 2 seconds) on the access key/remote
transmitter.
. Carry the access key and perform
either of the following procedures (models
with “keylessaccesswithpush-button
start system ”).
– Grip the front door handle.
– Press the rear gate opener button.
The flashing of the security indicator light
will then change slowly (once approxi-
mately every 3 seconds from twice ap-
proximately every 2 seconds), indicating
that the alarm system has been disarmed.
! Emergency disarming
If you cannot disarm the system using the
transmitter (i.e. the transmitter is lost,
broken or the transmitter battery is too
weak), you can disarm the system without
using the transmitter.
The system can be disarmed if you turn
the ignition switch from the “LOCK”/“OFF”
to the “ON ”position with a registered key/
access key.

NOTE
For models with“keyless access with
push-button start system ”, if the ac-
cess key battery is discharged, perform
the procedure described in “Switching
power status ”F9-18. In such a case,
replace the battery immediately. Refer
to “Replacing battery of access key ”
F 11-50.
& Valet mode
When you choose the valet mode, the
alarm system does not operate. In valet
mode, the access key/remote transmitter
is used only for locking and unlocking the
doors and rear gate (Outback) and panic
activation.
To enter the valet mode, change the
setting of your vehicle’ s alarm system for
deactivation mode. Refer to “Activating
and deactivating the alarm system ”F 2-
29. The security indicator light will con-
tinue to flash once every 3 seconds
indicating that the system is in the valet
mode.
To exit valet mode, change the setting of
your vehicle’ s alarm system for activation
mode. Refer to “Activating and deactivat-
ing the alarm system ”F 2-29.
& Tripped sensor identification
The security indicator light flashes when
the alarm system has been triggered.
Also, the number of flashes indicates the
location of unauthorized intrusion or the
severity of impact on the vehicle.
When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON ”position, the indicator light will
illuminate for 1 second and then flash as
follows:
. When a door or rear gate (Outback)
was opened: 5 times
. When the trunk (Legacy) was opened:
4 times
. When a strong impact or multiple
impacts were sensed: twice (only models
with shock sensors (dealer option))
. When a light impact was sensed: once
(only models with shock sensors (dealer
option))
& Shock sensors (dealer op-
tion)
The shock sensors trigger the alarm
system when they sense impacts applied
to the vehicle and when any of their
electric wires is cut. The alarm system
causes the horn to sound and the hazard
warning flashers to flash for a short time
when the sensed impact is weak, but it
warns of a strong impact or multiple impacts by sounding the horn and flashing
the hazard warning flashers, both lasting
approximately 30 seconds.
If you desire, your SUBARU dealer can
connect them and set them for activation
or deactivation.
NOTE
.
The shock sensors are not always
able to sense impacts caused by break-
ing in, and cannot sense an impact that
does not cause vibration (such as
breaking the glass using a rescue
hammer).
. The shock sensors may sense vi-
bration like those shown in the follow-
ing examples and trigger the alarm
system. Select the settings of the alarm
system and shock sensors appropri-
ately depending on where you usually
park your vehicle.
Examples:
–Vibration from construction site
– Vibration in multistory car park
– Vibration from trains
. You can have the sensitivity of the
shock sensors adjusted to your pre-
ference by your SUBARU dealer.
