● When a door or rear gate (Outback) was opened: 5 times
● When the trunk (Legacy) was opened: 4 times
● When a strong impact or multiple impacts were sensed: twice (only models with shock sensors (dealer option))
● When a light impact was sensed: once (only models with shock sensors (dealer option))
