I'm not sure whether the remotes in the US are the same as in Europe.
When I bought mine, no remotes came with the car, so I bought a new original remote from Subaru (horribly expensive). My mechanic trained the car's electronincs to the new remote. For this you need open a side-cover underneath the dashboard. Amongst the huge amout of wires there is one with a connector that is usally disconnected. When you connect it and use the remote, your car's electronics will remember this remote key as legitimate.
Don't forget to disconnect the wire again, or any suitable infrared remote will open your car.
You also have to keep in mind it is an infrared remote, like for a TV set - so it only works if the beam is directed at the receiver - the little hole in the door handle.
Open left or right cover? That depends on the model year of your car.
