The airbags have their own ECU. Have you removed some airbags? If not I'd be concerned as to why it has come on. If you have you can fit either a dummy squib (£7 from subaru) or a 3.3ohm resistor (£2 for 50) and then disconnect the battery to reset it

No it won't affect you map settings. It will reset it to the map that was written by the mapper and anything that th ECU has learned since the map will be cleared (good and bad such as compensating for bad fuel) but it will learn all this again in no time.
If you have not removed an airbag something has caused the light to come on and it may be a problem with the airbag.
