Subaru Forester: Using HomeLink / Garage Door Two-Way Communication
HomeLink has the capability of communicating
with your garage door opener.
HomeLink can receive and display “closing”
or “opening” status messages from
compatible garage door opener systems.
At any time, HomeLink can also recall and
display the last recorded status communicated
by the garage door opener to
indicate your garage door being “closed”
or “opened”.
HomeLink has the capability of receiving
this communication from the garage door
opener at a range up to 820 feet (250 m).
Range may be reduced by obstacles such
as houses or trees. You may have to slow
your vehicle speed to successfully receive
the garage door opener communication.
Status Indicators
Within five seconds after programming a
new HomeLink button, both of HomeLink’s
garage door status indicators will flash
rapidly green indicating that the garage
door two-way communication has been
enabled...

The catalytic converter is installed in the
exhaust system. It serves as a catalyst to
reduce HC, CO and NOx in exhaust gases,
thus providing cleaner exhaust.
To avoid damage to the catalytic converter:
Use only unleaded fuel. Even a small
amount of leaded fuel will damage the
catalytic converter...
