2. Operation of the Security System
Arming the Security System
V acate the vehicle closing all windows, doors, boot and bonnet.
Give the radio transmitter button a quick press, whilst st anding near the vehicle.
The security system will acknowledge arming with 4 flashes of the vehicle s hazard warning light s and the doors will double-lock.
The security system will then enter a pre-set st ate , this st ate is used by the security system s microprocessor to monitor the vehicle s internal environment before setting the sensitivity of the ultrasonics.If a door , boot or bonnet has been inadvertently lef t open, the siren will continuously bleep (dependent on programming) for 15 seconds as a warning to close everything securely. If this happens, disarm the security system (see below), close all doors etc. securely , and re-arm. Failure to do this within 15 seconds will result in the siren sounding at full power .
Disarming the Security System
Give the radio transmitter button a quick press, whilst st anding near the vehicle.
The security system will acknowledge disarming with 1 flash of the vehicle s hazard
warning light s and the doors will unlock.
Disarming & Operating Boot Release (2004 MY> Legacy saloon only)
Press the radio transmitter button to disarm the system in the normal way, however continue to keep the button pressed for the boot release feature to operate.
The security system will acknowledge disarming with 1 flash of the vehicle s hazard
warning light s and the doors will unlock, shortly af ter this the boot will also open. The button can now be released.
Ultrasonic Interior Protection
The interior protection system in the SUBARU Category 1 Alarm System employs a sophisticated microprocessor controlled ultrasonic method of detection. Unlike conventional ultrasonic detectors this method ensures that an actual entry has occurred rather than just air movement, air pressure fluctuation, seat belt movement, etc.
Whenever the system is armed:
Initially the dashboard LED flashes dimly for the first 15 seconds. During this period the ultrasonic sensors are inactive. This allows the air movement inside the vehicle to stabilise.
The dashboard LED will then flash brightly for the next 15 seconds. The ultrasonic sensors are now active. The alarm system s microprocessor monitors the interior of the vehicle, and will reduce the sensitivity (from the maximum sensitivity programmed by the inst aller) if any background movement is detected that would cause a false alarm (if excess movement is detected during this period the LED will remain illuminated for a second, indicating that the sensitivity has been reduced).
Af ter the first 32 seconds the dashboard LED will flash dimly again. The system is now fully armed and the ultrasonic sensitivity is set to the programmed maximum or the reduced level if some background movement was detected.
4
The ultrasonic interior detection system also employs a movement/time method where a cert ain amount of movement in a given time is also required to cause a trigger. This method of detection of fers a high level of protection against false alarms that are commonly associated with other systems that employ inferior methods of detection.
Arming the Security System Without Ultrasonic Interior Protection*
W arning: Impreza and Forester models from 2003 model year and Legacy models from 2004 model year are equiped with double-locking doors. People should not be left inside these vehicle s with the alarm armed under any circumst ances. When armed, the vehicles doors double-locked automatically and cannot be opened internally! If armed in error, with an occup ant in the vehicle, the system should be disarmed and a door must be opened and shut to prevent auto-rearming and locking occuring.
Arming the security system without ultrasonic interior protection will be necessary, yet still provides limited protection, if you wish to leave animals inside the secured vehicle or the windows/sunroof open whilst the vehicle is lef t unattended. Sensible safety precautions should be exercised if considering these actions! To do this:
T urn the vehicle s ignition o n , give the radio transmitter button a quick press.
The dashboard mounted LED will flash once .
Turn off the vehicle s ignition immediately .
V acate the vehicle closing all doors, boot and bonnet.
Give the radio transmitter button a quick press, whilst st anding near the vehicle.
The security system will acknowledge arming with 8 flashes of the vehicle s hazard warning light s, instead of the normal 4. The doors will double-lock as normal.
Ultrasonic interior protection will be restored the next time the security system is armed in the normal way.
* Also possible using the multifunction keyp ad. See p age 11 for det ails.
Automatic Immobilisation and Starting the V ehicle
The alarm system is armed and disarmed by your radio transmitter, however the vehicle also has immobilisation circuit s that set automatically af ter the ignition is switched off. This is a Thatcham MIRRC requirement so that the driver cannot forget to set the immobilisation system. Although the vehicle is immobilised, the alarm system is not armed and the interior, doors, boot and bonnet circuit s are no t protected until the radio transmitter button is pressed to arm the security system.
Impreza/Forester 1999-2002 MY and Legacy 1999-2003 MY.
When the ignition is turned of f on these vehicles, the dashboard mounted LED will be switched to a const ant o n st ate for 30 seconds (dependent on programming). During this
LED on time you may st art the vehicle. Af ter this time the LED extinguishes to indicate that both immobilisation circuit s have armed automatically. On disarming the security system, the dashboard mounted LED will again be switched to a const ant o n st ate for 30 seconds (dependent on programming). During this LED on time you may st art the vehicle. Af ter this time the LED extinguishes to indicate that both immobilisation circuit s have armed automatically.
5
If, in both cases, you wish to st art the vehicle af ter the dashboard LED has extinguished (which indicates that the automatic immobiliser has re-set) turn o n the ignition, give the radio transmitter button a quick press, then st art the vehicle within 30 seconds (dependent on programming). You may repeat this switch ignition on press radio transmitter button st art vehicle sequence as often as you like. Alternatively af ter the dashboard LED has extinguished, arm then immediately disarm the security system, then st art the vehicle
Impreza/Forester 2003 MY onward and 2.0 Legacy 2004 MY onward.
When the ignition is turned of f on these vehicles, the dashboard mounted LED will be switched to a const ant o n st ate for 30 seconds (dependent on programming). During this
LED on time you may st art the vehicle. Af ter this time the LED extinguishes to indicate that the immobilisation circuit has armed automatically. On disarming the security system, the dashboard mounted LED will again be switched to a const ant o n st ate for 30 seconds (dependent on programming). During this LED on time you may st art the vehicle. Af ter this time the LED extinguishes to indicate that the immobilisation circuit s has armed automatically.
2.5 & 3.0 Legacy 2004 MY onward.
When the ignition is turned of f, or when disarming the security system on these vehicles, the dashboard mounted LED will be switched to a const ant o n state for 30 seconds (dependent on programming), however the vehicle s immobilisation circuit s only arm when the vehicle s coded key is removed from the ignition barrel. When the vehicle s coded key is returned to the ignition barrel the immobiliser automatically disarms and the vehicle can be st arted.
To summarise, in all inst ances, if the LED is const antly o n , you can st art the vehicle.
Personal Panic/Siren Test (Not 2004 MY> Legacy saloon models with Boot Release)
If the transmitter button is pressed and held down for 5 seconds (dependent on programming) the siren will sound and the indicators will flash for a short time.
Due to the method of activation, this feature is not available on Legacy saloon models if the Boot Release option is turned on. If you would prefer to have the Personal Panic feature instead of Boot Release, your dealer can disconnect the Boot Release output.
If the Security System is Triggered
If the security system is triggered, the siren will sound at full power for approximately 30 seconds, af ter which the siren will stop and the security system will immediately re-arm ready for any further att ack. Pressing the radio transmitter button will disarm the security system whenever it is sounding.
When the security system is sounding, and the radio transmitter button is pressed to disarm the security system, the doors will remain double-locked as a safety feature. T o unlock the doors simply re-arm then disarm the security system.
The security system has an anti-nuisance feature, allowing each protected circuit to only trigger 10 times (dependent on programming) in any armed period, af ter which the circuit causing the continual trigger will shut down, leaving all other circuit s protected.

3. Security System Options
(These can be turned on or off by your SUBARU dealer)
Door Open Warning Bleeps
This feature is turned on at inst allation , but can be turned of f by your SUBARU dealer. W ith this feature on the security system will bleep, if armed when a door , bonnet or theboot is still open or ajar . If you arm the security system in this inst ance the siren will repeatedly bleep for 15 seconds af ter the radio transmitter button is pressed. If the security system is not disarmed or the open door, bonnet or boot is not closed within 15 seconds, the siren will then sound at full power . This will continue for ten 30 second cycles, af ter this the open door , bonnet or boot will be ignored by the security system (to conform to noise abatement laws) and is no longer protected .
Note:
One door left open in this way may affect the protection on all other doors,
depending on the model of vehicle.
W ith the Door Open Warning Bleeps programmed to off this facility will
function in the same way but without the audible warning.
Auto Arm
This feature is turned off at inst allation , but can be turned on by your SUBARU dealer.
Auto Arm will automatically arm the security system if the vehicle is accident ally left unarmed.The security system will automatically arm a pre-set time (dependent on programming e.g. 60 seconds) af ter the ignition has been switched off , the vehicle vacated, and the last door, boot or bonnet has been closed . If a door, boot or bonnet remains open, or is opened during the programmed time, the security system will not arm until that door , boot or bonnet is closed. As a warning that Auto-Arm is going to automatically arm the alarm, the siren bleeps twice when you open the door to exit the vehicle.
Note:
If the Door Open Warning Bleeps have been programmed to off there will be no
warning bleeps to advise you that this feature is active.
Auto Arm with Door Locking
This feature is turned off at inst allation , but can be turned on by your SUBARU dealer. This feature operates in the same way as Auto Arm , however the vehicle s doors will also automatically double-lock at the same time the security system auto arms.
Be sure to remove your car keys and not to leave occupants in the vehiclewhen leaving the vehicle if you have chosen the Auto Arm With Door Locking option, otherwise they may be locked in the vehicle!
W arning: Impreza and Forester models from 2003 model year and Legacy models from 2004 model year are equipeed with double-locking doors. People should not be lef t inside these vehicle s with the alarm armed under any circumstances. When armed, the vehicles doors double-locked automatically and cannot be opened internally! If armed in error, with an occup ant in the vehicle, the system should be disarmed and a door must be opened and shut to prevent auto-rearming and locking occuring.
7
Auto Re-arm
This feature is turned on at inst allation , but can be turned of f by your SUBARU dealer .
Auto Re-arm will automatically re-arm and double-lock a pre-set time of 60 seconds (dependent on programming), from the system being disarmed by the radio transmitter , provided that no door, bonnet or boot has been opened during that time . This prevent s the vehicle being vulnerable if the radio transmitter button is pressed by mist ak e
perhaps from inside your house while your car is parked close by in the driveway or street, or if children press the radio transmitter button in play! This feature provides extra security with no inconvenience.
4. Emergency Override Using the Multi-Function Keypad
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
In the following sections describing the functions of the multi-function keypad, reference to a PIN code will be made. The PIN code for your security system will have been issued to you on two self-adhesive labels. This PIN code is unique to your security system and you must keep it in a safe place. Alternatively you can change the PIN code printed on the issued labels, to one of your own choice that you can easily remember. Failure to recall your PIN code could increase the cost of replacing or adding further radio transmitters and will prevent yourself and your SUBARU dealer from overriding the security system in the unlikely event of radio transmitter failure. If you do not know, or have forgotten your PIN code then your SUBARU dealer can reset this for you, provided that the security system is not armed.
Note:
When using the keypad, each time a button is pressed the LED on the keyp ad will
flash once as confirmation. The next button should not be pressed before this
confirmation. However, you only have 10 seconds to enter the next character. If you
do not press the next character within this time period the LED on the keypad will
flash repeatedly, after which you must start the sequence again from the beginning.
Disarming the Security System if it fails to operate using the Radio Transmitter
If the radio transmitter fails to operate the security system, due to a depleted battery in the radio transmitter for example, or it s tot al loss/damage, the security system can be disarmed using the keyp ad. To do this, enter the vehicle (the siren will sound), type your PIN code into the keyp ad, the security system will disarm in the normal way . The vehicle should be st arted whilst the dashboard LED is still illuminated, before the self-setting immobiliser re-arms. The keyp ad only allows three attempts to enter the correct PIN code. If a third incorrect PIN code is entered the security system will ignore all PIN code entries for 30 minutes. This is a security feature.

Arming the Security System if it fails to operate using the Radio Transmitter
If the radio transmitter fails to operate the security system, due to a depleted battery in the radio transmitter for example, or it s tot al loss/damage, the security system can be armed using the keyp ad. T o do this open and leave open the vehicle s door , type your PIN code into the keyp ad, the security system will arm in the normal way, immediately close the door and manually lock the door with the vehicle s door key.
Note:
The above procedure can be avoided if your second radio transmitter is to hand.
Changing the Security System s PIN (Personal Identification Number) Code
Note:
When using the keypad, each time a button is pressed the LED on the keyp ad will
flash once as confirmation. The next button should not be pressed before this
confirmation. However, you only have 10 seconds to enter the next character. If you
do not press the next character within this time period the LED on the keypad will
flash repeatedly, after which you must start the sequence again from the beginning.
W ith the ignition switched off and the security system disarmed ,type into the keyp ad the following
Where AAAA represent s the old 4-digit PIN code and BBBB represent s the newly chosen 4-digit PIN code. To confirm correct input of your PIN code the siren will bleep af ter entering the last digit. The number 9 2 is the access code/command which notifies the alarm unit to accept the new PIN code.
So for example if the existing PIN code is 1234 and you wish to change it to 6 7 8 9 y o u would type in:

5. Changing the way the Security System operates using the Multi-Function Keypad
Last Trigger Isolation (Option 0 on the keyp ad).
If af ter arming the security system, the Door Open Warning Bleep s continue to sound or the alarm system repeatedly triggers for no app arent reason, yet all the doors, bonnet and boot appear to be closed correctly, this may indicate a fault on one of the switches that trigger the security system. On a normal security system this would mean the entire vehicle would have to be lef t unprotected. The faulty switch would result in a trigger if an attempt were made to arm the security system. To exclude the switch causing the fault turn on the vehicle s ignition, give the radio transmitter button a quick press, type 0 on the keyp ad and immediately turn off the ignition. Arm the security system in the normal way. If the door open bleep s are active the siren will bleep as before for 15 seconds, but the security system will no longer trigger on the troublesome circuit af ter this period. Y o u must repeat this process each time you arm the security system.
This function means that you can leave the vehicle protected on all circuit s with the exception of the faulty door , boot or bonnet switch.
A ny fault should be rectified by your SUBARU dealer as soon as possible. Remember the vehicle is not fully protected in this situation, and one faulty door switch may affect the protection on all other doors, depending on the model of vehicle.

Excluding Ultrasonic Interior Protection (Option 2 on the keyp ad)
Arming the security system without ultrasonic interior protection will be necessary if you wish to leave people or animals inside the secured vehicle (sensible safety precautions should be exercised if considering this action!). This facility may also be used to provide limited protection of the vehicle if lef t unattended with the windows and/or sunroof open. T o do this turn on the vehicle s ignition, give the radio transmitter button a quick press, type 2 on the keypad and immediately turn off the ignition. V acate the vehicle, closing all doors, boot and bonnet. Now arm the security system in the normal way.
The security system will acknowledge arming with 8 flashes of the vehicle s hazard warning light s, instead of the normal 4.
Ultrasonic protection will be restored next time you arm the security system in the normal way.
Enable/Disable Safety-Lock Feature (Options 4 an d 5 on the keypad)
Many Police forces now recommend that you lock your vehicle s doors whilst driving,
Safety-Lock prevent s you from having to remember to do so. If all the doors, bonnet and boot are closed and you turn on the vehicle s ignition all the doors and boot will single­lock . Unlike double-locking, the doors can be opened internally at any time. When you turn off the ignition all the doors and boot will automatically unlock.
To stop the doors and boot locking on a single occasion, for example if you wish to st art the engine and then vacate the vehicle, perhap s to scrape ice from the windows, open a door and turn on the vehicle s ignition, af ter 1 second the vehicle s hazard light s will give a single flash . It is then safe to close your door and Safety-Lock will not lock your doors until the next time you turn the vehicle s ignition of f then on again.
To enable Safety-Lock turn on the vehicle s ignition, give the radio transmitter button a quick press, type 4 on the keyp ad and immediately turn off the ignition.
Safety-Lock will now function as described.
To disable Safety-Lock turn on the vehicle s ignition, give the radio transmitter button a quick press, type 5 on the keyp ad and immediately turn off the ignition.
Safety-Lock is now disabled and will not operate your door locks.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
All people driving the vehicle should be made aware that Safety-Lock is enabled, to prevent them inadvertently locking the keys inside the vehicle.
Displaying Vehicle s Battery Voltage (Option 8 on the Keypad)
Turn on the vehicle s ignition, give the radio transmitter button a quick press, type 8 on the keyp ad and immediately turn off the ignition. The dashboard LED will flash the approximate volt age of the vehicle s battery (i.e. 12 flashes = 12 volt s). A battery volt a g e below 9 volt s can af fect the security system s correct operation and the vehicle may not st art. If your security system is armed and you have power loss, the radio transmitter may not operate the security system, and your emergency override keyp ad may not operate. Recharge the vehicle s battery if possible, or cont act your motoring organisation.

X i. Universal Opins.qxd 24/09/2004 11:44 Page 13
Enable Super-Lock (Option 9 on the keypad)
Many vehicles are stolen when thieves break into your home and steal your car keys and radio transmitter , perhap s while you are on holiday. Super-Lock works by temporarily ignoring all radio transmitters.
Once Super-Lock has been enabled, only when the PIN code is entered into the keypa d will the security system disarm. There is of course a little inconvenience when you disarm the security system yourself, because you must first trigger it in order to gain access to the keyp ad. However Super-Lock does of fer a very high level of security to your vehicle whilst your radio transmitter is not in your possession.
To enable Super-Lock turn on the vehicle s ignition, give the radio transmitter button a quick press, type 9 on the keyp ad and immediately turn off the ignition.
Arming the Security System After Enabling Super-Lock Af ter enabling Super-Lock you may arm the security system once in the normal way using the radio transmitter.
Disarming the Security System After Enabling Super-Lock T o do this, enter the vehicle , the siren will sound, type your PIN code into the keypad, the security system will disarm in the normal way.
All your radio transmitters will now function as normal.
Adjusting Door Open Warning Bleep V olume (Option * on the keyp ad)
To switch between loud and sof t door open warning bleep s, turn on the vehicle s ignition, type * on the keypad and immediately turn off the ignition.

6. Radio Transmitters
Y our SUBARU Category 1 Alarm System s radio transmitters operate on the DTI and R&TTE approved frequency of 433.92mhz, for use in all EU member st ates. Although extremely robust you must t ake care of your radio transmitters to prolong their working life.
If you lose or damage a radio transmitter, replace it immediately.
If you need more than two radio transmitters for your security system your SUBARU dealer can supply a third or fourth transmitter (maximum 4 to preserve security).
The radio transmitters are battery powered and although the batteries are long life lithium cells, it is recommended that these are changed every year. Y our SUBARU dealer will be pleased to supply these for you.
Replacing the Batteries in a Radio Transmitter
Eventually the lithium battery cells will need replacing. A symptom of low battery power is reduced operating range from the vehicle. To maint ain optimum performance of the radio transmitter it is good practice to replace the lithium battery cells annually .
The radio transmitters are built into the ignition keys and are powered by s ingle lithium cell (model number CR1620). For information on changing the cells in these transmitters consult your vehicle handbook.
Caution:
Lithium battery cells should not be exposed to temperatures exceeding 60”C
(140”F). You must dispose of depleted lithium batteries carefully. Battery cells may
explode or leak if recharged, incinerated or short-circuited. Your local authority will
advise you of the correct disposal method in your area.

Teaching New Radio Transmitters to the Security System
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
When teaching one or more radio transmitters into the security system all previous radio transmitters will be erased from the security system. You must always teach ALL the radio transmitters required to operate the security system during the
Teaching New Radio Transmitters to the Security System process.
Note:
When using the keypad, each time a button is pressed the LED on the keyp ad will
flash once as confirmation. The next button should not be pressed before this
confirmation. However, you only have 10 seconds to enter the next character. If you
do not press the next character within this time period the LED on the keypad will
flash repeatedly, after which you must start the sequence again from the beginning.
W ith the ignition switched off and the security system disarmed , type into the keyp ad the following:
