Selecting audible signal operation

Using an electronic chirp, the system will give you an audible signal when the doors lock and unlock. If desired, you may turn the audible signal off.

To deactivate the audible signal, perform the following procedure. You can also use the same steps to restore the function.

1. Sit in the driver’s seat and shut all doors and the rear gate.

2. Press the unlock side of the power door locking switch.

3. Insert the key into the ignition switch.

4. While holding down the unlock side of the power door locking switch, pull the key out and re-insert it into the ignition switch at least 5 times within 10 seconds after performing step 2.

5. Open and close the driver’s door within 10 seconds after performing step 4.

6. To indicate completion of the setting, the turn signal lights flash 3 times and the chirp sounds 3 times.

You may have the above procedure performed by your SUBARU dealer.
