Keyless Entry
Subaru Forester, Outback and Crosstrek owners and WRX and WRX STI Impreza, WRX and Legacy owners, can enjoy the convenience of keyless entry. This technology is designed to give you peace of assurance, whether you're looking to keep your keys safe or worry that someone could try to steal your vehicle.
The way that it works is quite easy. If your key fob's location is within the range of a sensor, it sends an electronic signal to the sensor. If the signal is valid, the vehicle will lock or unlock when required.
You can also alter the keyless access setting through the multi function display (models with "keyless access with push-button start system") to limit the operations of the trunk and doors with the key fob. Consult your SUBARU dealer for details.
