Subaru Legacy BN/BS (2015-2019) Owners Manual: Power door locking switches

1. Lock
2.  Unlock

All doors and the rear gate (Outback) can be locked and unlocked by the power door locking switches located at the driver's side and the front passenger's side doors.

To lock the doors, press the front side of the switch.

To unlock the doors, press the rear side of the switch.

When you close the doors after you set the door locks, the doors remain locked.

NOTE Make sure that you do not leave the key inside the vehicle before locking the doors from the outside using the power door locking switches.

Key lock-in prevention function

This function prevents the doors from being locked under the following conditions.

•  The key is still in the ignition switch (models without "keyless access with push-button start system")
•  The ignition switch is in the "ON" position (models with "keyless access with push-button start system")

This function's operational/non-operational setting can be changed by a SUBARU dealer. Contact a SUBARU dealer for details.

NOTE

•  The factory setting (default setting) for this function is set as "operational".
•  When leaving the vehicle, make sure you are holding the key before locking the doors.

Behavior with key lock-in prevention function operational

With the driver's door open, the doors are automatically kept unlocked even if the front side of the power door locking switch is pressed.

Behavior with key lock-in prevention function non-operational

•  If the lock lever is turned to the rear ("LOCK") position with the driver's door open and the driver's door is then closed with the lock lever in that position, the driver's door is locked.
•  If the spare key is used to lock the driver's door from the outside of the vehicle, the door is locked.
