Starter interrupt
Starter interrup t is an automatic p roc ed ure. The st arter is d isab led
any time the system is armed , or if the Passive starter interrup t fea-
ture is enab led and the p assive arm time is exp ired . The vehic le also
will not start if p ower is d isc onnec ted from the al arm mod ule.
How starter interrupt works
The alarm system interrup ts the sig nal from the ig n ition key to the ve-
hic le ’s starter when Starter interrup t is ac tivated . If y ou attemp t to start
the vehic le, the d ash ind ic ator will turn on as usu al, b ut the starter will
not “c rank ”, or turn over.
Passive starter interrupt
If the Passive Starter Interrup t op tion has b een ac tivated b y you r
SUBARU d ealer, the starter will b e automatic ally d i sab led one minute
after you turn off the vehic le ig nition, whether or not you arm the sec u-
rity system with your remote transmitter.
Possible situations with starter interrupt or Passive starter inter-
rupt
Passive Starter Interrupt
If you leave the vehic le for a short amount of time , to refuel or g o to
the c ar wash for examp le, always eng ag e the Valet M od e b efore exit-
ing your vehic le. If you forg et to eng ag e Valet Mod e, the Passive
Starter Interrup t will eng ag e and the vehic le will not start when you
return. To enable the vehicle to start, simply press “UNLOCK” on

CAUTION
Do not touch the SRS airbag system components around the steering wheel and dashboard with bare hands right after deploy-ment. Doing so can cause burns because the components can bevery hot as a result of deployment.

Passenger’
s side
SRS airbags deploy as soon as a collision occurs. After deployment, SRS airbags start to deflate immedi- ately so that the
driver’ s vision is not
obstructed.
Driver’ s side
The SRS airb ag c an func tion only when the ig nition switc h is in the
“ ON ” p osition.
If the front sub sensors insid e the b oth front fend ers and the imp ac t
sensors in the airb ag c ontrol mod ule d etec t a c erta in p red etermined
amount of forc e d uring a frontal c ollision, the c on trol mod ule send s
sig nals to the airb ag mod ules instruc ting them to i nflate the SRS air-
b ag s. Then b oth airb ag mod ules p rod uc e g as, whic h i nstantly inflates
d river ’s and p asseng er ’s SRS airb ag s. After the d ep loyment, the SRS
airb ag s immed iately start to d eflate so that the d r iver’s vision is not
ob struc ted . The time req uired from d etec ting imp ac t to the d eflating
SRS airb ag after d ep loyment is shorter than the b li nk of eye.
The front p asseng er ’s SRS airb ag d ep loys tog ether with d river ’s SRS
airb ag even when no one oc c up ies the front p asseng e r’s seat.
Althoug h it is hig hly unlikely that the SRS airb ag would ac tivate in a
non-ac c id ent situation, should it oc c ur, the SRS ai rb ag will d eflate
q uic kly, not ob sc uring vision and will not interfer e with the d river’s
ab ility to maintain c ontrol of the vehic le.
When the SRS airb ag d ep loys, a sud d en, fairly loud inflation noise will
b e heard and some smoke will b e released . These oc c urrenc es are

SRS airbag system servicing
WARNING
When discarding an airbag module or scrapping the entire car
damaged by a collision, consult your SUBARU dealer. The SRS airbag has no user-serviceable parts. Do not use
electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS airbag
system. For required servicing of the SRS airbag, see your near-
est SUBARU dealer. Tampering with or disconnecting the sys-
tem’ s wiring could result in accidental inflation of the SRS airbag
or could make the system inoperative, which may result in seri-
ous injury. The wiring harnesses of the SRS airbag system arecovered with yellow insulation and the system connectors areyellow for easy identification.
CAUTION
If you need service or repair in areas listed below, we recommend
that you have an authorized SUBARU dealer perform the work. The
SRS airbag control module, impact sensors and airbag modules
are stored in these areas.
Under the center console
Inside each front fender
Steering wheel and column and nearby areas
Top of the dashboard on front passenger ’s side and nearby
areas
In the event that the SRS airbag is deployed, replacement of the sys-
tem should be performed only by an authorized SUBARU dealer.When the components of the SRS airbag system are replaced, useonly genuine SUBARU parts.
To ensure their long -term reliab ility, the SRS airb ag s must b e insp ec ted
b y a SUBARU d ealer ten years after the d ate of manu fac ture, whic h is
shown on the c ertific ation lab el attac hed to the d r iver’s d oor.

p ressed at the same time d uring p layb ac k, the tap e travel ind ic ators will
switc h and the p layer will b eg in p laying b ac k the o p p osite sid e of the
tap e. The same mec hanism is automatic ally ac tivated when the end of
the tap e is reac hed . This allows the op p osite sid e of the tap e to p lay,
p rovid ing c ontinuous p layb ac k. Fast-forward button
To fast-forward the tap e, p ress the “

func tion, p ress the “TPS ” b utton to turn on the “TPS ” ind ic ator. If the fast-
forward b utton (FF) is then p ressed , the p layer ad v anc es the tap e to the
b eg inning of the next selec tion and starts p laying it. If the rewind b utton
(REW) is p ressed instead , the p layer rewind s the ta p e to the b eg inning
of the c urrent selec tion and starts rep laying it. T he “TPS ” func tion may
not op erate p rop erly und er the following c ond itions :
When the rec ord ing level is low.
When there are long p auses in the mid d le of a selec tion.
