1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Turn off unnecessary lights and acces-
sories.
3. Depress the clutch pedal to the floor
and shift the shift lever into neutral. Hold
the clutch pedal to the floor while starting
the engine.
The starter motor will only operate when
the clutch pedal is depressed fully to the
floor.
4. Turn the ignition switch to the“ON”
position and check the operation of the
warning and indicator lights. Refer to
“Warning and indicator”F3-12.
5. Turn the ignition switch to the“START”
positionwithoutdepressing the accelera-
tor pedal. Release the key immediately
after the engine has started.
If the engine does not start, try the
following procedure.
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the
“LOCK”/“OFF”position and wait for at
least 10 seconds. After checking that
the parking brake is firmly set, turn the
ignition switch to the“START”position
while depressing the accelerator pedal
slightly (approximately a quarter of the
full stroke). Release the accelerator
pedal as soon as the engine starts.
(2) If this fails to start the engine, turnthe ignition switch back to the“LOCK”/
“OFF”position and wait for at least 10
seconds. Then fully depress the accel-
erator pedal and turn the ignition
switch to the“START”position. If the
engine starts, quickly release the ac-
celerator pedal.
(3) If this fails to start the engine, turn
the ignition switch again to the“LOCK”/
“OFF”position. After waiting for 10
seconds or longer, turn the ignition
switch to the“START”position without
depressing the accelerator pedal.
(4) If the engine still fails to start,
contact your nearest SUBARU dealer
for assistance.
6. Confirm that all warning and indicator
lights have turned off after the engine has
started. The fuel injection system auto-
matically lowers the idle speed as the
engine warms up.

WARNING
.There are some general precau-
tions when starting the engine.
Carefully read the precautions
described in“General precau-
tions when starting engine”F7-
9.
.Do not remote start a vehicle in an
enclosed environment (e.g.
closed garage). Prolonged opera-
tion of a motor vehicle in an
enclosed environment can cause
a harmful build-up of Carbon
Monoxide. Carbon Monoxide is
harmful to your health. Exposure
to high levels of Carbon Monox-
ide can cause headaches, dizzi-
ness or in extreme cases uncon-
sciousness and/or death.
The remote engine start system allows you
to start the engine from outside the vehicle.
In addition, the remote engine start system
can activate the heater or air conditioner,
providing you with a comfortable cabin
upon entry. For more details, refer to the
Owner’s Manual supplement for the re-

!Remote start safety features
For safety and security reasons, the
remote engine start system will prevent
starting (or stop the engine if running) and
sound the horn twice if any of the following
conditions is detected. In addition, the fob
will flash and beep 3 times.
.The total run-time has exceeded 20
minutes
.The brake pedal is depressed
.A key is in the ignition switch
.The engine hood is open
.The engine idle speed exceeds 3,500
RPM
.The security alarm is triggered
.The select lever is not in the“P”position
(CVT models)
If the system detects any door (including
the rear gate) open during operation, it will
prevent starting or stop the engine, and
sound the horn and flash side marker
lights, tail lights, and parking lights 6 times.
In addition to the items above, if the
vehicle’s engine management system
determines there is a safety risk due to a
vehicle-related problem, the vehicle will
power down and the horn will sound 3
times.
NOTE.If the alarm system is armed at the
time of remote engine starter activation
(the security indicator light on the
combination meter is flashing), the
alarm system will remain armed
throughout the remote start run cycle.
.If the alarm system is disarmed at
the time of remote engine starter acti-
vation (the security indicator light on
the combination meter is not flashing),
the alarm system will remain disarmed
throughout the remote start run cycle.
!Remote start operation - fob con-
firmation
Your remote engine starter fob is a
bidirectional transceiver that can confirm
system operation with several different
visual and audible indications. The fob’s
LED-backlit button and internal piezo
buzzer will indicate status of the system
using the following flash and beep se-
quences, provided the fob is within opera-
tional range of the system.

transmitters (the system will accept up to
eight transmitters).
8. The system will exit the transmitter
learn mode if the key is turned to the
“LOCK”/“OFF”position, the door is closedor after 2 minutes.
&System maintenance
NOTEFor remote engine starter transceiver:
In the event that the vehicle’s battery is
replaced, discharged or disconnected,
it will be necessary to start the vehicle a
minimum of one time using the key
prior to activating the remote engine
start system. This is required to allow
the vehicle electronic systems to re-
synchronize.
!Changing the battery
CAUTION
.Do not let dust, oil or water get on
or in the remote engine start
transmitter when replacing the
battery.
.Be careful not to damage the
printed circuit board in the re-
mote engine start transmitter
when replacing the battery.
.Be careful not to allow children to
touch the battery and any re-
moved parts; children could
swallow them.
.There is a danger of explosion if

an incorrect replacement battery
is used. Replace only with the
same or equivalent type of bat-
tery.
.Battery should not be exposed to
excessive heat such as sunshine,
fire or the like.
For models with“keyless access with
push-button start system”:
Perform the procedure described in“Re-
placing battery of access key fob”F11-43.
For remote engine starter transceiver:
The 3-volt lithium battery (model CR-2450)
supplied in your remote engine start
transmitter should last approximately one
year, depending on usage. When the
battery begin to weaken, you will notice a
decrease in range (distance from the
vehicle that your remote control operates).
Follow the instructions below to change
the remote engine start transmitter battery.
1. Remove the small phillips screw lo-
cated on the back side lower left corner of
the transmitter.
2. Carefully pry the remote engine start
transmitter halves apart using a small flat-
head screwdriver.
3. Remove the circuit board from the
bottom half of the case and remove the
battery and replace with new one. Be sure
to observe the (+) sign on the old battery
before removing it to ensure that the new
battery is inserted properly (battery“+”

accidental gear shifting.NOTEPlease read the following points care-
fully and bear them in mind when using
the manual mode.
.If you attempt to shift down when the
engine speed is too high, i.e., when a
downshift would push the tachometer
needle beyond the red zone, beeps will
be emitted to warn you that the down-
shift is not possible.
.If you attempt to shift up when the
vehicle speed is too low, the transmis-
sion will not respond.
.You can perform a skip-shift (for
example, from 4th to 2nd) by operating
the shift paddle twice in rapid succes-
sion.
.The transmission automatically se-
lects 1st gear when the vehicle stops
moving.
.If the temperature of the transmis-
sion fluid becomes too high, the“AT
OIL TEMP”warning light on the combi-
nation meter will illuminate. Immedi-
ately stop the vehicle in a safe location
and let the engine idle until the warning
light turns off.
&Selection of“L”(if equipped)“L”is for using engine braking when going
down a hill, etc. To select this mode, move
the select lever from the“D”position to the
“L”position.When selected, the indicator“L”willilluminate on the combination meter.
To deselect“L”, move the select lever to
the“D”position.
&Shift lock functionThe shift lock function helps prevent the
improper operation of the select lever.
.The select lever cannot be operated
unless the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON”position and the brake pedal is
depressed.
.The select lever cannot be moved from
the“P”position to any other position before
the brake pedal is depressed. Depress the
brake pedal first, and then operate the
select lever.
.Only the“P”position allows you to turn
the ignition switch from the“ACC”position
to the“LOCK”/“OFF”position and remove
the key from the ignition switch.
.If the ignition switch is turned to the
“LOCK”/“OFF”position while the select
lever is in the“N”position, the select lever
may not be moved to the“P”position after
a period of time. Therefore, move the
select lever to the“P”position with the
brake pedal depressed soon after the
ignition switch is turned to the“LOCK”/
“OFF”position.
