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 unregistered
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 guaran-
tee.
CAUTION
.Do not place the key under direct
sunlight or anywhere it may be-
come hot.
.Do not get the key wet. If the key
gets wet, wipe it dry with a cloth
immediately.
.Do not modify or remove the
system. If modified or removed,
the proper operation of the sys-
tem cannot be guaranteed.
NOTE.To protect your vehicle from theft,
please pay close attention to the follow-
ing security precautions:
–Never leave your vehicle unat-
tended with its keys inside.
–Before leaving your vehicle,
close all windows and the moon-
roof, and lock the doors and rear
gate.
–Do not leave spare keys or any
record of your key number in the
vehicle.
.The vehicle has a maintenance-free
type immobilizer system.&Security indicator lightRefer to“Security indicator light”F3-29.&Key replacementYour key number plate will be required if
you ever need a replacement key made.
Any new key must be registered for use
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 as follows.

engine hood, windows and/or moon-
roof are open. Always make sure that
they are fully closed before arming the
system.
.When arming the system, if any of
the doors or the rear gate is not fully
closed, an electronic chirp sounds five
times, the hazard warning flashers
flash five times to alert you that the
doors (or the rear gate) are not properly
closed. When you close the door, doors
will automatically lock and the system
will automatically arm in 30 seconds.
.The 30-second standby time can be
eliminated if you prefer. Have it per-
formed by your SUBARU dealer.
.If any of the following actions is
done during the standby period, the
system will not switch to the surveil-
lance state.
–Doors (including the rear gate)
are unlocked using the access key
fob/remote transmitter.
–Doors (including the rear gate)
are unlocked using the keyless
access function (models with“key-
less access with push-button start
system”).

is opened.–The ignition switch is turned to
the“ON”position (models without
“keyless access with push-button
start system”).
–Push-button ignition switch is
turned to the“ACC”position (mod-

The flashing of the security indicator light
will then change slowly (once approxi-
mately every 3 seconds from twice ap-
proximately every 2 seconds), indicating
that the alarm system has been disarmed.
!Emergency disarming
If you cannot disarm the system using the
access key fob/transmitter (i.e. the trans-
mitter is lost, broken or the transmitterbattery is too weak), you can disarm the
system without using the access key fob/
remote transmitter.
The system can be disarmed if you turn the
ignition switch from the“LOCK”/“OFF”to

WARNING
.Never turn the ignition switch to
the“LOCK”position while the
vehicle is being driven or towed
because that will lock the steer-
ing wheel, preventing steering
control. And when the engine is
turned off, it takes a much greater
effort than usual to steer.
.Before leaving the vehicle, al-
ways remove the key from the
ignition switch for safety and
never allow an unattended child
to remain in the vehicle. Failure to
follow this procedure could re-
sult in injury to a child or others.
Children could operate the power
windows, the moonroof or other
controls or even make the vehicle
move.
CAUTION
Do not attach a large key holder or
key case to either key. If it banged
against your knees or hands while
you are driving, it could turn the
ignition switch from the“ON”posi-
tion to the“ACC”or“LOCK”posi-
tion, thereby stopping the engine.
Also, if the key is attached to a key
holder or to a large bunch of other
keys, centrifugal force may act on it
as the vehicle moves, resulting in
unwanted turning of the ignition
switch.The ignition switch has four positions:
LOCK, ACC, ON and START.
NOTE.Keep the ignition switch in the
“LOCK”position when the engine is
not running.
.Using electrical accessories for a
long time with the ignition switch in the
“ON”or“ACC”position can cause the
battery to go dead.
.If the ignition switch will not move
from the“LOCK”position to the“ACC”
position, turn the steering wheel
slightly to the left and right as you turn
the ignition switch.&Key positions
Position Description
LOCKThe key can only be inserted
or removed in this position.
The ignition switch will lock
the steering wheel when you

ACCIn this position the electrical
accessories (audio, acces-
sory power outlet, etc.) can be
used.
ONThis is the normal operating
position after starting the en-
gine.
