Immobilizer
1082-2. ImmobilizerThe immobilizer system is designed to
prevent an unauthorized person from
starting the engine. Only keys registered
with your vehicle’s immobilizer system
can be used to operate your vehicle. If
engine start is attempted with an unregis-
tered access key fob or key, the engine
will not start. Even if the engine does start,
it will stop after a few seconds. This
system, however, is not a 100% anti-theft
guarantee.NOTETo protect your ve hicle from theft,
please pay close attention to the
following security precautions: - Never leave your vehicle unat-
tended with its keys inside. - Before leaving your vehicle,
close all windows and lock the
doors.

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 seven.
One key that has already been registered
is required in order to register a new key.NOTEIf you lose a key, the lost key’s ID code
still remains in the memory of the vehi-
cle’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.

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.
B5=B8.ERRN 22 ページ ２０２１年７月５日　月曜日　午後>1時>1>1分

Starting and Stopping Engine
230When the warm-up is completed, the
engine speed lowers automatically.
On rare occasions, it may be difficult
to start the engine depending on the
fuel and the usage condition (repeated
driving of a distance in which the
engine has not warmed up suffi-
ciently). In such a case, it is recom-
mended that you change to a different
brand of fuel.
 On rare occasions, transient
knocking may be heard from the
engine when the accelerator is oper-
ated rapidly such as a rapid start-up
and a rapid acceleration. This is not a
malfunction.
 The engine starts more easily when
the headlights, air conditioner and rear
window defogger are turned off.■
Starting Engine NOTE

When pressing the push-button
ignition switch while depressing the
clutch pedal (MT models) or the brake
pedal (AT models): - The engine starter operates for a
maximum of 10 seconds and after
starting the engine, the starter stops
automatically.
- The engine can be started
regardless of the power status.
 If the engine does not start, check
the security indicator light. Then press
the push-button ignition switch
without depressing the clutch pedal
WARNING
 There are some general precau-
tions when starting the engine.
Carefully read the precautions
described in "General Precau-
tions When Starting Engine"

P229.
If the steering lock cannot be
released after the engine has
started, never drive the vehicle.
The steering is still locked, and it
may result in an accident.
CAUTION
If a system malfunction warning
message is displayed on the
combination meter, there may be
a malfunction with the vehicle.
Contact a SUBARU dealer imme-
diately.If a steering lock warning
message is displayed on the
combination me ter after the
engine has started, it means that
the steering is still locked. While
moving the steering wheel right
and left, depress the brake pedal,
and press the push-button igni-
tion switch.
 Do not continue pressing the
push-button ignition switch for
more than 10 seconds. Doing so
could cause a malfunction. If the
engine does not start, stop
pressing the push-button ignition
switch. Instead, press the push-
button ignition switch without
depressing the clutch pedal (MT
models) or the brake pedal (AT
models) to switch the power
status to “OFF”. Wait 10 seconds,
and then press the push-button
ignition switch to start the
engine.
