Security System (Alarm System)

NOTE: The following inspections show the initial settings. When the settings are different from the initial settings, use Subaru Select Monitor to check the details of each setting for inspections. Refer to OPERATION .
  1. Fully open all the door windows.
  2. Remove the key from the ignition switch and close all the doors including rear gate.
  3. Press the "LOCK" button momentarily on the keyless transmitter. All doors are locked, and the security indicator light blinks faster (five times per two seconds) for 30 seconds and goes slower (twice per two seconds), then the alarm system is in set condition.

  5. Close all the doors including rear gate. Press the "LOCK" button momentarily on the keyless transmitter. All doors are locked and the alarm system is in set condition after 30 seconds.

    NOTE: The alarm condition will cease in 30 seconds once the door is closed.
