Default Question about a beep after turning engine on

Hey guys how's it going. I'm just looking for a little insight on something. I have a 2004 WRX and whenever I turn the engine on after about 15 seconds or so there will be a single short beep.

Just wondering what that is as I can't seem to find it anywhere in the manual unless I've misread it.

I have read similar stories that say it is a low battery indicator.

Huh, I'm pretty sure it's been doing this since I got it like 2 months ago. Pretty sure the battery should of died by now then. I don't know much about how long car batteries last for though.

I don't think so. Just the stock one with the 4 digit pin code.
