When any of the doors, the rear gate (Outback) or the trunk lid (Legacy) is not fully closed, the door open indicator light illuminates. This function is effective even if the ignition switch is in the “LOCK” or “Acc” position or the key is removed from the ignition switch.

The open door is indicated by the corresponding part of the door open warning light.

Always make sure this light is not illuminated before you start to drive.
