Subaru Forester: Alarm system / Disarming the system
Perform either of the following procedures.
- Briefly press a button (for less than 2
seconds) on the access key fob/remote
transmitter.
- Carry the access key fob and perform
either of the following procedures (models
with “keyless access with push-button
start system”).
- Grip the front door handle.
- Press the rear gate opener button.
- Unlock using the PIN code access.
The flashing of the security indicator light
will then change slowly (once approximately
every 3 seconds from twice approximately
every 2 seconds), indicating
that the alarm system has been disarmed.
Emergency disarming
If you cannot disarm the system using the
access key fob/transmitter (i.e., the transmitter
is lost, broken or the transmitter
battery is too weak), you can disarm the
system without using the access key fob/
remote transmitter.
The system can be disarmed if you turn the
ignition switch from the “LOCK”/“OFF”
position to the “ON” position with a
registered key/access key fob.
NOTE
For models with “keyless access with
push-button start system”, if the access
key fob battery is discharged,
perform the procedure described in
“Switching power status”. In
such a case, replace the battery immediately.
Refer to “Replacing battery
of access key fob”.
To change the setting of your vehicle’s
alarm system for activation or deactivation,
do the following.
