. If the indicator on the push-
button ignition switch flashes in
green after the engine has
started, never drive the vehicle.
The steering wheel is still locked,
and it may result in an unex-
pected accident. To release the
steering lock, press the push-
button ignition switch again
while moving the steering wheel
right and left and depressing the
brake pedal.
CAUTION
. When the operation indicator on
the push-button ignition switch is
flashing in orange, there may be
a malfunction with the vehicle.
We recommend that you contact
a SUBARU dealer immediately.
. Do not continue pushing the
push-button ignition switch for
more than 10 seconds. Doing so
could cause a malfunction of the
starter motor. If the engine does
not start, turn the push-button
ignition switch to the “OFF”
position, wait for 10 seconds
and then push the push-button
ignition switch again to start the
engine.
NOTE
. When the push-button ignition
switch is pressed while depressing
the clutch pedal (MT models) or the
brake pedal (AT models), the engine
can be started regardless of the power
status.
. When the push-button ignition
switch is pressed while depressing
the clutch pedal (MT models) or the
brake pedal (AT models), the engine
starter operates for a maximum of 10
seconds and after starting the engine,
the starter stops automatically.
. Avoid rapid racing and rapid accel-
eration immediately after the engine
has started.
. After the engine starts, the engine
speed will be kept high until the engine
coolant temperature gauge is halfway
between H and L (if equipped) or the
coolant temperature low indicator light
turns off (if equipped). When the warm-
up i s completed, the engine speed
lowers automatically.
. On rare occasions, it may be difficult
to start the engine depending on the
fuel and the usage condition (repeated
driving of a distance in which the
temperature gauge does not move (if
equipped) or the coolant temperature
low indicator light does not turn off (if
equipped)). In such a case, it is recom-
mended to change the fuel to a differ-
ent brand.
. On rare occasions, transient knock-
ing may be heard from the engine when
the accelerator is operated rapidly
such as a rapid start-up and a rapid
acceleration. This is not a malfunction.
. The engine starts more easily when
the headlights, air conditioner and rear
window defogger are turned off.
. If the immobilizer indicator light
illuminates when you attempt to start
the engine but the engine does not
start, press the push-button ignition
switch to switch the power to “OFF”
and then try to start the engine again.
. If the engine does not start, press
the push-button ignition switch without
depressing the clutch pedal (MT mod-
els) or the brake pedal (AT models) to
switch the power to “OFF”. Then, while
depressing the clutch pedal (MT mod-
els) or the brake pedal (AT models)
more forcefully, press the push-button
ignition switch.
. The engine start procedures may
not function depending on the radio
wave conditions around the vehicle. In
such a case, refer to “
