Subaru XV

[Subaruboy]

Is it possible to deactivate the interior sensors for the alarm system. Using the pad to deactivate is a real faff, in and out of the car frequently leaving animals & kids in the car, also got big fat fingers so the pad is not a friendly contraption.

can you not cover them?

I know this is probably a little out of date but we had same question with ours as we leave a dog in it. apparently the easy answer is to lock the drivers door with the key rather than the remote, this engages the dead locks but not the alarm, you can then unlock with the remote without the alarm activating.  this works on the 2013 XV so imagine other will be the same.

 

Just thought I'd throw this up in case anyone else needed this answer in the future

Does it have the cat one alarm?....if so all you do is put the key in the ignition, turn on the ignition and press the fob or key once to turn off the interior sensors.

Dunno, but on an XV apparently the only way according to subaru is to either type in the code in the fuse box which is a pain or to lock as described above, does seem a bit ridiculous, but it's true [emoji12]

I don't have a separate key fob....The button is on the key. It was only recently I actually read the instructions for mine. I used to tilt the sensors down.
