Subaru Forester: Remote engine start system (dealer option) / Pre-heating or pre-cooling the interior of the vehicle
Before exiting the vehicle, set the temperature
controls to the desired setting and
operation. After the system starts the
engine, the heater or air conditioning will
activate and heat or cool the interior to
your setting.
An alarm trigger may occur if the vehicle is
opened by the remote keyless entry
transmitter within a few seconds immediately
following remote engine start shutdown...
New transmitters can be programmed to
the remote engine start system in the
event that a transmitter is lost, stolen,
damaged or additional transmitters are
desired (the system will accept up to eight
transmitters)...
Other information:
The system detects objects using sonar
sensors installed in the rear bumper.
If the system determines a possible
collision with an object in the reversing
direction, automatic deceleration will be
activated. Also, beeping sounds will activate...
To help prevent moisture from forming in
the fuel system and the risk of its freezing,
use of an antifreeze additive in the fuel
tank is recommended during cold weather.
Use only additives that are specifically
designed for this purpose. When an antifreeze
additive is used, its effect lasts
longer if the tank is refilled whenever the
fuel level reaches half empty...
