WARNING

W h e n

p r o g r a m m i n g

t h e

HomeLink

Wireless Control Sys-

tem, you may be operating a
garage door opener or other
device. Make sure that people
and objects are out of the way of
the garage door or other device
to prevent potential harm or da-
mage.

Do not use the HomeLink

Wire-

less Control System with a gar-
age door opener that lacks the
safety stop and reverse feature
as required by applicable safety
standards. A garage door opener
which cannot detect an object,
signaling the door to stop and
reverse, does not meet these
safety standards. Using a garage
door opener without these fea-
tures increases risk of serious
injury or death. For more infor-
mation, consult the HomeLink

website at www.HomeLink.com/
Subaru or call 1-800-355-3515.

actual size and distance of objects
that you view in convex mirror.

Power folding mirror switch (if
equipped)

The power folding mirror switch operates
when the ignition switch is in the “ON” or
“ACC” position.
To fold the outside mirrors, press the
power folding mirror switch. To unfold the
mirrors, press the switch again.

NOTE

If the outside mirrors have been

operated (folded or unfolded) manually,
when you turn the ignition switch from
the “LOCK”/“OFF” position to the
“ACC” or “ON” position, the outside
mirrors may be adjusted automatically
depending on the status of the power
folding mirror switch.

If the outside mirrors have been

manually folded slightly forward of the
regularly unfolded position, when you
turn the ignition switch from the
“LOCK”/“OFF” position to the “ACC”
or “ON” position, the outside mirrors
may automatically fold further forward
depending on the status of the power
folding mirror switch. When this hap-
pens, press the power folding mirror
switch. By doing so, the outside mir-
rors which have been folded to the
furthest forward position will extend to
the regularly unfolded position and
then fold rearward in the usual way. In
order to unfold the outside mirrors,
press the switch again.

When you fold the outside mirrors

manually, the mirrors may not unfold
when the switch is pressed, even
though the motor operating sound is
heard. When this happens, operate the
power folding mirror switch again.

When you unfold the outside mirrors

manually, the mirrors may become
wobbly. Be sure to unfold the mirrors
by operating the switch. If the outside
mirrors are still wobbly, fold the mirrors
again and then unfold them by operat-
ing the switch again.

When the temperature is low, the

outside mirrors may stop during opera-
tion. Push the switch again. When the

outside mirrors do not work by operat-
ing the switch, move the outside mir-
rors several times manually. This
makes it possible to operate them by
switch operation.

When you operate the power folding

mirror switch continuously, it may not
work. This is not a malfunction. Operate
after waiting for a short period of time.

The outside mirrors can be operated

(folded or unfolded) manually for ap-
proximately 45 seconds after the fol-
lowing conditions are met.

– The ignition switch is turned to
the “OFF” position.
– The door is unlocked using the
access key fob.

Power folding door mirror func-
tion (if equipped)

The mirrors are automatically folded when
the power folding mirror switch is in the
mirror unfolding position, the ignition
switch is turned OFF, and the doors are
locked.
The mirrors are automatically unfolded
when the power folding mirror switch is in
the mirror unfolding position and the doors
are unlocked.
