NOTEThe operational/non-operational
setting for the keyless access function
can be changed. For the setting proce-
dure, refer to "Disabling Keyless
Access Function" 
P103.
 For detailed info rmation about the

 The keyless access with push-
button start system uses weak radio
waves. The status of the access key
fob and environmental conditions may
interfere with the communication
between the access key fob and the
vehicle under the following conditions,
and it may not be possible to lock or
unlock the doors or start the engine.
CAUTION
 Never leave or store the access
key fob inside the vehicle or
within 6.6 ft (2 m) around the
vehicle (e.g., in the garage). The
access key fob may be locked
inside the vehicle, or the battery
may discharge rapidly. Note that
the push-button ignition switch
may not turn on in some cases
depending on the location of the
access key fob.The access key fob contains elec-
tronic components. Observe the
following precautions to prevent
malfunctions.
- It is recommended to have the
access key fob battery
replaced at an authorized
SUBARU dealer to avoid the
risk of damage.- Do not get the access key fob wet. If the access key fob gets
wet, wipe it off immediately
and let it dry completely.- Do not apply strong impactsto the access key fob.
- Never leave the access key fob in direct sunlight or
anywhere that may become
hot, such as on the dash-
board. It may damage the
battery or cause circuit
malfunctions.- Do not wash the access keyfob in an ultrasonic washer.- Do not leave the access keyfob in humid or dusty loca-
tions. Doing so may cause
malfunctions.- Keep the access key fob awayfrom magnetic sources.- Do not leave the access keyfob near a personal computer
or home electrical appliance.- Do not leave the access keyfob near a battery charger or
any electrical accessories.- Do not apply metallic windowtint or attach metallic objects
to the windows.- Do not fit non genuine acces- sories or parts.
If the access key fob is dropped,
the integrated emergency key
inside may become loose. Be
careful not to lose the emergency
key.
When traveling in an airplane, do
not press the button of the access
key fob. If any button of the
access key fob is pressed, radio
waves are emitted and may affect
the operation of the airplane. In a
bag, take measures to prevent the
buttons from being pressed acci-
dentally.

When the access key fob is within either of
the operating ranges of the doors, the
LED indicator on the access key fob
flashes. When the keyless access func-
tions are disabled, the LED indicator does
not flash unless a button on the access
key fob is pressed.NOTE If the access key fob is placed too
close to the vehicle body, the keyless
access functions may not operate
properly. If it does not operate prop-
erly, repeat the operation from farther
away.
 If the access key fob is placed near
the ground or in an elevated location
from the ground, even if it is in the indi-
cated operating range, the keyless
access function may not operate prop-
erly.
 When the access key fob is within
the operating range, it is possible for
anyone, even someone who is not
carrying the access key fob, to operate
the keyless access function. Note that
the keyless access function can be
operated only by the door handle, door
lock sensor or trunk opener button in
the operating range in which the
access key fob is detected.
 It is not possible to lock the doors,
trunk lid and fuel filler lid using the keyless access function when the
access key fob is inside the vehicle.
However, depending on the status of
the access key fob and the environ-
mental conditions, the access key fob
may be locked inside the vehicle.
Before locking the vehicle, make sure
that you have the access key fob.

When the battery of the access key
fob is discharged, or when operating it
in a location with strong radio waves or
noise (e.g., near a radio tower, power
plant, broadcast station or an area
where wireless equipment is used), or
while talking on a cell phone, the oper-
ating ranges may be reduced, or the
keyless access function may not
operate.
In such a case, perform the procedure
described in "Locking and Unlocking"

P326.
 The doors may lock or unlock when
the car is being washed or exposed to
a significant amount of water that
touches the door handle while the key

HomeLink
® Wireless Control
System
The HomeLink® Wireless Control System
provides a convenient way to replace up
to three hand-held radio frequency
remotes used to acti vate devices such as
gate operators, garage door openers,
entry door locks, security systems, even
home lighting. The below steps are
generic programming instructions; for
Genie and Sommer garage door openers
please go directly to the HomeLink
®
website. Additional information and
programming videos can be found at www.HomeLink.com and

CAUTION

Before programming HomeLink
®
to a garage door opener or gate
operator, make sure that people
and objects are out of the way of
the device to prevent potential
harm or damage.
When programming a garage
door opener, it is advised to park
outside of the garage.Do not use HomeLink
® with any
garage door opener that lacks
safety stop and reverse features
as required by U.S. federal safety
standards (this includes any
garage door opener model manu-
factured before April 1, 1982). A
garage door that cannot detect an
object signaling the door to stop
and reverse does not meet
current U.S. federal safety stan-
dards.
 It is also recommended that a new
battery be placed in the hand-
held remote (garage door opener
remote) of the device for quicker
and more accurate training.

General Precautions When
Starting Engine
NOTE
It may be difficult to start the engine
when the battery has been discon-
nected and reconnected (for mainte-
nance or other purposes). This
difficulty is caused by the electroni-
cally controlled throttle’s self-diag-
nosis function. To overcome it, keep
the ignition switch in the “ON” position
for approximately 10 seconds before
starting the engine.
 Avoid rapid racing and rapid accel-
eration immediately after the engine
has started.
 For a short time a fter the engine has
started, the engine speed is kept high.
CAUTION
Small animals trapped in the cool-
ing fan and belt of the engine may
result in a malfunction. Check that
no small animal enters the engine
compartment and under the vehicle
before starting the engine.
WARNING
 Never start the engine from
outside the vehicle. It may result
in an accident.Do not leave the engine running
in locations with poor ventilation,
such as a garage and indoors.
The exhaust gas may enter the
vehicle or indoors, and it may
result in carbon monoxide
poisoning.
Do not start the engine near dry
foliage, paper, or other flammable
substances. The exhaust pipe
and exhaust emissions can
create a fire hazard at high
temperatures.
CAUTION
If the engine is stopped during
driving, the catalyst may overheat
and burn.When starting the engine, be sure
to sit in the driver’s seat.

do not operate the push-button
ignition switch or open any of the
doors until the vehicle is stopped
in a safe location. It is dangerous
because the steering lock may be
activated. Stop the vehicle in a
safe place, and contact a
SUBARU dealer immediately.
CAUTION
For AT models:Do not stop the engine while the
select lever is in a position other
than the “P” position.If the engine is stopped while the
