Scrapping of your SUBARU
The SRS airbag and seatbelt pretensioner devices in your SUBARU contain
explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seatbelt
pretensioners left as they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be
sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seatbelt pretensioner
removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by your SUBARU
dealer before you scrap your vehicle.
Perchlorate Material
Special handling may apply, See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
Your vehicle has components that may contain perchlorate. These
components may include airbag, seatbelt pretensioners, and transmitter
batteries.
WARNING
■ General precautions while driving
Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influ-
ence of alcohol or drugs that have impa ired your ability to operate your vehi-
cle. Alcohol and certain drugs delay reaction time, impair judgment and
reduce coordination, which could lead to an accident that could result in
death or serious injury.
Defensive driving: Always drive defensively. Anticipate mistakes that other
drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid accidents.
Driver distraction: Always give your full attention to driving. Anything that dis-
tracts the driver, such as adjusting controls, talking on a cellular phone or
reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serious injury to you,
your occupants or others.
■ General precaution regarding children’s safety
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to
have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral.
There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by playing with
the windows or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or
extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to children.

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 →P. 470)
● 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

● If the battery charge becomes low, a buzzer will sound in the cabin and a
message will be displayed on the multi-information display when the
engine is stopped. ( →P. 440)
● 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. ( →P. 387)
• 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.

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
→ P. 387
■ 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. ( →P. 38, 470)

■
Examples of the types of accidents in which it is possible that the
driver’s/driver’s and front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag(s) will deploy
■ Examples of the types of accidents in which deployment of the
driver’s/driver’s and front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag(s) is unlikely
to occur
There are many types of collisions which might not necessarily require
deployment of driver’s/driver’s and fr ont passenger’s SRS frontal airbag(s).
In the event of accidents like those illustrated, the driver’s/driver’s and front
passenger’s SRS frontal airbag(s) may not deploy depending on the level of
accident forces involved. Only the driver’s SRS frontal airbag or
both driver’s and front passenger’s SRS
frontal airbags may be activated when the
vehicle sustains a hard impact in the
undercarriage area from the road surface
(such as when the vehicle plunges into a
deep ditch, is severely impacted or
knocked hard against an obstacle on the
road such as a curb).
The vehicle strikes an object, such as a
telephone pole or sign pole.
