Keys and doors/Immobilizer
Immobilizer
The 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. This
system, however, is not a 100% anti-theft
guaranty.
For models with “keyless access with
push-button start system ”:
If you press the push-button ignition
switch when carrying an unregistered
access key, the switch will not turn to the
“ON ”position and the engine will not start.
If the engine does not start, perform the
procedure described in “Starting engine”
F 9-19.
For models without “keyless access
with push-button start system ”:
Even if an unregistered key fits into the
ignition switch and can be turned to the
“START ”position, the engine will auto-
matically stop after several seconds.
If the engine does not start, pull out the
key once before trying again. Refer to
“ Ignition switch (models without push-
button start system) ”F 3-4.
CAUTION
. Do not place the key under direct
sunlight or anywhere it may
become 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 fol-
lowing 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 (all models)
and rear gate (Outback).
– Do not leave spare keys or any
record of your key number in the
vehicle.
. The vehicle has a maintenance-free
type immobilizer system.

&Safety precautions
! Regarding radio wave
WARNING
If you wear an implanted pacemaker
or an implanted defibrillator, stay at
least 8.7 in (22 cm) away from the

The radio waves from the transmit-
ting antennas on the vehicle could
adversely affect the operation of
implanted pacemakers and im-
planted defibrillators.
If you wear electric medical equip-
ment other than an implanted pace-
maker or an implanted defibrillator,
before using the keyless access
with push-button start system, refer
to“Radio waves used for the key-
less access with push-button start
system ”F2-13, and contact the
electric medical equipment manu-
facturer for more information. The
radio waves from the transmitting
antennas on the vehicle could ad-
versely affect the operation of the
electric medical equipment.
