& Security indicator light
NOTE
NOTE
Even if the security indicator light
flashes irregularly or its fuse blows
(the light does not flash if its fuse is
blown), the immobilizer system will
function normally.
A vehicle that is equipped with the
remote engine start system as a dealer
option can register up to four keys for
use with one vehicle.
& Key replacement
The security indicator light deters potential
thieves by indicating that the vehicle is
equipped with an immobilizer system. It
begins flashing approximately 60 seconds
after the ignition switch is turned from the
“ON” position to the “Acc” or “LOCK”
position or immediately after the key is
pulled out.
If the security indicator light does not flash,
the immobilizer system may be malfunctioning. If this occurs, contact your
SUBARU dealer as soon as possible.
In case an unauthorized key is used (e.g.
an imitation key), the security indicator
light illuminates.
Your key number plate and security ID
plate will be required if you ever need a
replacement key made. Any new key must
be registered for use with your vehicle’s
immobilizer system before it can be used.
Up to four keys can be registered for use
with one vehicle.
For security, all the keys registered with
your vehicle’s immobilizer system will
have their ID codes erased and reregistered when a new key is made.
Therefore, all of your vehicle’s keys must
be presented when a new key is registered. Any key that is not re-registered
when a new key is made cannot be used
after the other keys are re-re gistered. For
information on replacement keys and on
the registration of keys with your immobilizer system, contact your SUBARU
dealer.
