Default Cold start issue with MY03 Impreza......

As thread just thought I'd mention this and see if it's normal or has a problem.
The car is parked in a garage overnight so it's not getting as cold as it could but ( usually ) if I leave it for 2-3 days when I key on and it turns over I hear what sounds like a brief chirp from the alarm as it fires.
Is this normal or do I have a fault somewhere ?.
My initial reaction is possible low battery volts but the fact that it turns over and fires in good time dispels that theory, can anyone else shed some light ?.
This is my first ownership of a Subaru so am still finding my feet with it.
As mentioned the car is MY03 ( facelift model ) with PPP fitted.

Any info. grateful

Mark.

A subaru going cheap eh (groan)

I thought I'd seen this before so here you go. I used the search (which is finally working again wooohooo) and entered 'low battery'

Cheer's for that info. it's as I thought an iffy battery .
Got in touch with my local Subaru dealer and they confirmed the problem so it's booked in for Friday for a check and replacement battery ( under warranty ).
Some dealers are'nt all bad !.
