Tripped sensor identification

The security indicator light flashes when
the alarm system has been triggered. Also,
the number of flashes indicates the loca-
tion of unauthorized intrusion or the
severity of impact on the vehicle.
When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position, the indicator light will
illuminate for 1 second and then flash as
follows:
.

When a door or rear gate (Outback)

was opened: 5 times
.

When the trunk (Legacy) was opened:

4 times
.

When the engine hood was opened: 3

times
.

When a strong impact or multiple

impacts were sensed: twice (only models
with shock sensors (dealer option))
.

When a light impact was sensed: once

(only models with shock sensors (dealer
option))

Shock sensors (dealer op-
tion)

The shock sensors trigger the alarm
system when they sense impacts applied
to the vehicle and when any of their electric
wires is cut. The alarm system causes the
horn to sound and the hazard warning
flashers to flash for a short time when the

sensed impact is weak, but it warns of a
strong impact or multiple impacts by
sounding the horn and flashing the hazard
warning flashers, both lasting approxi-
mately 30 seconds.
If you desire, your SUBARU dealer can
connect them and set them for activation
or deactivation.

NOTE

The shock sensors are not always

able to sense impacts caused by break-
ing in, and cannot sense an impact that
does not cause vibration (such as
breaking the glass using a rescue
hammer).
.

The shock sensors may sense vibra-

tion like those shown in the following
examples and trigger the alarm system.
Select the settings of the alarm system
and shock sensors appropriately de-
pending on where you usually park
your vehicle.
Examples:

– Vibration from construction site
– Vibration in multistory car park
– Vibration from trains

You can have the sensitivity of the

shock sensors adjusted to your pre-
ference by your SUBARU dealer.

Child safety locks

arrow on the handle. This operation
unlocks the trunk lid. Then, push up the lid.
The handle is made of material that
remains luminescent for approximately
an hour in the dark trunk space after it is
exposed to ambient light even for a short
time.

WARNING

Never allow any child to get in the
trunk and play with the release
handle. If the driver starts the vehi-
cle without knowing that a child is
inside the trunk and the child opens
the lid using the release handle, the
child could fall out and be killed or
seriously injured.

CAUTION

Do not close the lid while gripping

the release handle. The handle
may be damaged.

Do not use the handle as a hook

to fasten straps or ropes to
secure your cargo in the trunk.
Such use may result in damage of
the handle.

Load the trunk so that cargo

cannot strike the release handle.
If the cargo hits the handle while
the vehicle is being driven, the
handle may be pulled and the
trunk lid may open. That may
cause cargo to fall out of the
trunk, which could create a traffic
safety hazard.

Power rear gate (if equipped)

WARNING

When operating the power rear

gate, observe the following pre-
cautions. Ignoring the precau-
tions may result in an injury (e.
g., anyone’s body is hit against
the rear gate or is caught in the
rear gate, etc.)

– Make sure there are no people

around the rear gate.

– Never let anyone get close to

the rear gate.

When closing the rear gate, be

extremely careful to prevent any-
one’s fingers, arms, neck, head
or other objects from being
caught in the rear gate. Other-
wise, serious personal injury may
be caused by entrapment.

After opening the rear gate on a

slope by using the power rear
gate feature, the rear gate may
close. Make sure that the rear
gate has stopped completely
after opening it.

When leaving the vehicle, always

carry the key 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 operating
the power rear gate.

The driver should be aware of and

pay careful attention to his/her
responsibilities.

Use the power rear gate only

when the area around the rear
gate is clearly visible and when
you have checked that there is no
danger of people being caught in
the gate.

CAUTION

When closing the rear gate after

opening it, make sure to use the
power rear gate. If you close the
rear gate manually with extra
force, the power rear gate may
be damaged.

Do not install any accessories

other than genuine SUBARU
parts on the rear gate. If the
weight of rear gate increases
excessively, the rear gate stay
cannot support the rear gate
sufficiently when opening the
rear gate. Also, the power rear
gate may not function properly or

may malfunction.

Do not touch the driving rod.

Doing so may result in injury or
damage.

The power rear gate operates only when
all of the following conditions are satisfied.
.

The vehicle is stopped completely.

The outside temperature is within a

range from −228F to 1408F (from −308C to
608C).
.

The ignition switch is in the “LOCK”/

“OFF” or “ACC” position. Or, the ignition
switch is in the “ON” position and the select
lever is in the “P” position.

We recommend using the power rear gate
function in most circumstances instead of
manual operation.

NOTE

Do not press the power rear gate

button repeatedly while the power rear
gate is operating. Otherwise, the sys-
tem may ignore the button operation in
order to avoid being damaged.
