Before driving
Using the mechanical key (vehicles with a keyless access with
push button start system)
To take out the mechanical key,
push the release knob and take
the key out.
After using the mechanical key,
store it in the access key. Carry
the mechanical key together with
the access key. If the access key
battery is depleted or the “keyless
access” entry function does not
operate properly, you will need
the mechanical key.
( oP. 398)
■When required to leave the vehicle’s key with a parking attendant
Turn the trunk lid opener main switch off as circumstances demand.
( oP. 46)
On vehicles without a keyless access with push button start system, provide
the attendant with the valet key.
On vehicles with a keyless access with push button start system, remove the
mechanical key for your own use and provide the attendant with the access
key only.
■Key number plate
Keep the plate in a safe place, not in the vehicle. In the event that a key
(without a keyless access with push button start system) or mechanical key
(with a keyless access with push button start system) is lost, a new key can
be made at your SUBARU dealer using the key number plate. ( oP. 397)
■When riding in an aircraft
When bringing a key with remote keyless entry system onto an aircraft,
make sure you do not press any buttons on the key while inside the aircraft
cabin. If you are carrying the key in your bag etc., ensure that the buttons
are not likely to be pressed accidentally. Pressing a button may cause the
key to emit radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the aircraft.

■Battery-saving function
The battery-saving function will be activated in order to prevent the access
key battery and the vehicle battery from being discharged while the vehicle
is not in operation for a long time.
●In the following situations, the keyless access with push button start sys-
tem may take some time to unlock the doors.
• The access key has been left in an area of approximately 6 ft. (2 m) of
the outside of the vehicle for 10 minutes or longer.
• The keyless access with push button start system has not been used
for 5 days or longer.
●If the keyless access with push button start system has not been used for
14 days or longer, the doors cannot be unlocked at any door except the
driver’s door.
In this case, take hold of the driver’s door handle, or use the remote key-
less entry system or the mechanical key, to unlock the doors.

■Conditions affecting operation
The keyless access with push button start system uses weak radio waves. In
the following situations, the communication between the access key and the
vehicle may be affected, preventing the keyless access with push button
start system, remote keyless entry system and engine immobilizer system
from operating properly. (Way of coping oP. 398)
●When the access key battery is depleted
●Near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio station, large dis-
play, airport or other facility that generates strong radio waves or electri-
cal noise
●When the access key is in contact with, or is covered by the following
metallic objects
• Cards to which aluminum foil is attached
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil inside
• Metallic wallets or bags
• Coins
• Hand warmers made of metal
• Media such as CDs and DVDs
●When another transmitters (that emit radio waves) are being used nearby
●When carrying the access key together with the following devices that
emit radio waves
• A portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone or other wireless com-
munication device
• Another vehicle's access key or a transmitter that emits radio waves
• Personal computers or personal digital assistants (PDAs)
• Digital audio players
• Portable game systems
●If window tint with a metallic content or metallic objects are attached to
the rear window
●When the access key is placed near a battery charger or electronic
devices

■Notes for the “keyless access” entry function
●Even when the access key is within the effective range (detection areas),
the system may not operate properly in the following cases:
• The access key is too close to the window or outside door handle, near
the ground, or in a high place when the doors are locked or unlocked.
• The access key is near the ground or in a high place, or too close to
the rear bumper center when the trunk lid is unlocked.
• The access key is on the instrument panel, rear shelf or floor, in the
door pockets or glove box or auxiliary box when the engine is started or
push-button ignition switch modes are changed.
●Do not leave the access key on top of the instrument panel or near the
door pockets when exiting the vehicle. Depending on the radio wave
reception conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the cabin
and the door will become lockable from the outside, possibly trapping the
access key inside the vehicle.
●As long as the access key is within the effective range, the doors may be
locked or unlocked by anyone.
●Even if the access key is not inside the vehicle, it may be possible to start
the engine if the access key is near the window.
●The doors may unlock if a large amount of water splashes on the door
handle, such as in the rain or in a car wash when the access key is within
the effective range. (The door will automatically be locked after approxi-
mately 60 seconds if the doors are not opened and closed.)
●Gripping the door handle when wearing a glove may not unlock the door.
●If the remote keyless entry system is used to lock the doors when the
access key is near the vehicle, there is a possibility that the door may not
be unlocked by the “keyless access” entry function. (Use the remote key-
less entry system to unlock the doors.)
●A sudden approach to the effective range or door handle may prevent the
doors from being unlocked. In this case, return the door handle to the
original position and check that the doors unlock before pulling the door
handle again.

■Access key battery depletion
●The standard battery life is 1 to 2 years.
●If the battery becomes low, an alarm will sound in the cabin when the
engine stops. ( oP. 378)
●As the access key always receives radio waves, the battery will become
depleted even if the access key is not used. The following symptoms
indicate that the access key battery may be depleted. Replace the bat-
tery when necessary. ( oP. 329)
• The keyless access with push button start system or the remote key-
less entry system does not operate.
• The detection area becomes smaller.
• The LED indicator on the key surface does not turn on.
●To avoid serious deterioration, do not leave the access key close to any
of the following electrical appliances that produce a magnetic field:
•TVs
• Personal computers
• Cellular phones, cordless phones and battery chargers
• Recharging cellular phones or cordless phones
• Glass top ranges
• Table lamps
■When the access key battery is fully depleted
oP. 329
■If the keyless access with push button start system has been deacti-
vated in a customized setting
●Locking and unlocking the doors, unlocking the trunk lid: Use the remote
keyless entry system or mechanical key. ( oP. 37, 398)
●Starting the engine and changing push-button ignition switch modes:
oP. 399
●Stopping the engine: oP. 4 0 1
■Customization that can be configured at SUBARU dealer
Settings (e. g. keyless access with push button start system) can be
changed. (Customizable features: oP. 443)
