CAUTION
l Although the unit can be used when the ignition switch is set
to either “ACC” or “ON” position, to protect the battery, start the
engine before using the unit.
l Do not use the unit anywhere other than in a vehicle. Doing so
may result in an electric shock or other injury.
l While dr
iving, keep the volume low enough for you to hear
outside sounds. Driving while not being able to hear sounds from
outside the vehicle may result in an accident.
l Be careful of the volume when turning on the power. If a loud
noise is emitted suddenly when you turn on the power, it may
damage your hearing.
l Do not apply a strong force to the display. Doing so may result in a
malfunction.
l Do not touch the hot parts of the unit. The hot parts may burn you.
l Do not use while there is an abnormality such as sound breakup or
distortion. Doing so may result in a re.
l Using the unit during extremely high or low temperature may
result in mistaken operation or a malfunction. In particular, the
temperature inside the vehicle can often rise to a high level during
the summer. Cool the vehicle, for example by opening a window,
before using the unit.
l Be
careful if metal or water enters the unit, or the unit is exposed
to a strong impact, because it may result in a malfunction.
l The touch buttons on the display screen may not operate correctly
if condensation forms inside them. If this happens, do not attempt

While driving, listen to the voice instructions as much as
possible and glance at the screen briey and only when it is safe.
However, do not totally rely on voice guidance. Use it just for
reference. If the system cannot determine the current position
correctly, there is a possibility of incorrect, late, or non-voice
guidance.
The data in the system may occasionally be incomplete. Road
conditions, including driving restrictions (no left turns, street
closures, etc.) frequently change. Therefore, before following
any instructions from the system, look to see whether the
instruction can be done safely and legally.
This system cannot warn about such things as the safety of an
area, condition of streets, and availability of emergency services.
If unsure about the safety of an area, do not drive into it. Under
no circumstances is this system a substitute for the driver’s
personal judgement.
Use this system only in locations where it is legal to do so. Some
states/provinces may have laws prohibiting the use of video and
navigation screens next to the driver.

Bluetooth phone.
l This sy
stem is tted with Bluetooth antennas. People with
implantable cardiac pacemakers, cardiac resynchronization
therapy-pacemakers or implantable cardioverter debrillators
should maintain a reasonable distance between themselves and
the Bluetooth antennas. The radio waves may aect the operation
of such devices.
l Before using Bluetooth phones, users of any electrical medical
device other than implantable cardiac pacemakers, cardiac
resynchronization therapy-pacemakers or implantable
cardioverter debrillators should consult the manufacturer of the
device for information about its operation under the inuence of
radio waves. Radio waves could have unexpected eects on the
operation of such medical devices.
CAUTION
l Do not leave your cellular phone in the vehicle. The temperature
inside may rise to a level that could damage the phone.
NOTE
l If your cellular phone does not support Bluetooth, this system cannot
function. Certain functions may not be available depending on the

ollowing conditions, the system may not function:
• The cellular phone is turned o.
• The current position is outside the communication area.
• The cellular phone is not connected.
• The cellular phone has a low battery.
l When using the

at the same time, the following problems may occur:
• The Bluetooth connection may be cut.
• Noise may be heard when playing back voice with the Bluetooth
function.
l The other par
ty’s voice will be heard from the front speakers. The
audio system will be muted during phone calls or when hands-free
voice commands are used.
l Talk alt
ernately with the other party on the phone. If both parties
speak at the same time, the other party may not hear what has been
said. (This is not a malfunction.)
l Keep call volume do
wn. Otherwise, the other party’s voice may
be audible outside the vehicle and voice echo may increase. When

TIPS FOR OPERATING THE AUDIO SYSTEM
OPERATING INFORMATION
CAUTION
l To avoid damage to the audio system, be careful not to spill
beverages over the audio system.
NOTE
l The use of a cellular phone inside or near the vehicle may cause a
noise from the speakers of the audio system which you are listening
to. However, this does not indicate a malfunction.
RADIO
Usually, a problem with radio reception does not mean there
is a problem with the radio — it is just the normal result of
conditions outside the vehicle.
For example, nearby buildings and terrain can interfere with
FM reception. Power lines or phone wires can interfere with AM
signals. And of course, radio signals have a limited range. The
farther the vehicle is from a station, the weaker its signal will
be. In addition, reception conditions change constantly as the
vehicle moves.
Here, some common reception problems that probably do not
indicate a problem with the radio are described.

TK5_US.indb 149 2024/08/02 12:01:20

FM
Fading and drifting stations: Generally, the eective range of
FM is about 25 miles (40 km). Once outside this range, you may
notice fading and drifting, which increase with the distance
from the radio transmitter. They are often accompanied by
distortion.
Multi-path: FM signals are reective, making it possible for
2 signals to reach the vehicle’s antenna at the same time. If
this happens, the signals will cancel each other out, causing a
momentary utter or loss of reception.
Static and uttering: These occur when signals are blocked by
buildings, trees or other large objects. Increasing the bass level
may reduce static and uttering.
Station swapping: If the FM signal being listened to is
interrupted or weakened, and there is another strong station
nearby on the FM band, the radio may tune in the second
station until the original signal can be picked up again.
AM
Fading: AM broadcasts are reected by the upper atmosphere
— especially at night. These reected signals can interfere with
those received directly from the radio station, causing the radio
station to sound alternately strong and weak.
Station interference: When a reected signal and a signal
received directly from a radio station are very nearly the same
frequency, they can interfere with each other, making it dicult
to hear the broadcast.
Static: AM is easily aected by external sources of electrical
noise, such as high tension power lines, lightening or electrical
motors. This results in static.

TIPS FOR THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM
GPS (GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM)
REGARDING ERRORS IN CURRENT POSITION
DISPLAY
The system displays the vehicle current position based on GPS
information and data from various sensors and road maps.
However, when the radiowave signals from GPS satellites are
weak or when signals are received from only two satellites or
less, errors may occur in the position. Modifying or adjusting the
system will not prevent these errors.
LIMITATIONS OF THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM
This navigation system calculates the current position using
satellite signals, various vehicle signals, map data, etc. However,
an accurate position may not be shown depending on satellite
conditions, road conguration, vehicle condition or other
circumstances.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) developed and operated
by the U.S. Department of Defense provides an accurate current
position, normally using 4 or more satellites, and in some case 3
satellites. The GPS system has a certain level of inaccuracy. While
the navigation system compensates for this most of the time,
occasional positioning errors of up to 300 feet (100 m) can and
should be expected. Generally, position errors will be corrected
within a few seconds.
The GPS signal may be physically obstructed, leading to
inaccurate vehicle position on the map screen. Tunnels, tall
buildings, trucks, or even the placement of objects on the
instrument panel may obstruct the GPS signals.
The GPS satellites may not send signals due to repairs or
improvements being made to them.
Even when the navigation system is receiving clear GPS
signals, the vehicle position may not be shown accurately or
inappropriate route guidance may occur in some cases.
CAUTION
l The installation of window tinting may obstruct the GPS signals.
Most window tinting contains some metallic content that
will interfere with GPS signal reception of the antenna in the
instrument panel. We advise against the use of window tinting on
vehicles equipped with navigation systems.

● Accurate current position may not be shown in the
following cases:
• When driving on a small angled Y-shaped road.
• When driving on a winding road.
• When driving on a slippery road such as in sand, gravel,
snow, etc.
• When driving on a long straight road.
• When freeway and surface streets run in parallel.
• After moving by ferry or vehicle carrier.
• When a long route is searched during high speed
driving.
• After repeating a change of direction by going forward
and backward, or turning on a turntable in a parking
lot.
• When leaving a covered parking lot or parking garage.
• When a roof carrier is installed.
• When driving with tire chains installed.
• When the tires are worn.
• After replacing a tire or tires.
• When using tires that are smaller or larger than the
factory specications.
• When the tire pressure in any of the 4 tires is not
correct.
● Inappropriate route guidance may occur in the following
cases:
• When turning at an intersection o the designated
route guidance.
• If you set more than 1 destination but skip any of
them, auto reroute will display a route returning to the
destination on the previous route.
• When turning at an intersection for which there is no
route guidance.
• When passing through an intersection for which there
is no route guidance.
• During auto reroute, the route guidance may not be
available for the next turn to the right or left.
• During high speed driving, it may take a long time for
auto reroute to operate. In auto reroute, a detour route
may be shown.
• After auto reroute, the route may not be changed.
• If an unnecessary U-turn is shown or announced.
• If a location has multiple names and the system
announces 1 or more of them.
• When a route cannot be searched.
• If the route to your destination includes gravel,
unpaved roads or alleys, the route guidance may not
be shown.
• Your destination point might be shown on the
opposite side of the street.
TIPS FOR THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM
182
TK5_US.indb 182 2024/08/02 12:01:38

• When a portion of the route has regulations
prohibiting the entry of the vehicle that vary by time or
season or other reasons.
• The road and map data stored in the navigation system
may not be complete or may not be the latest version.
NOTE
l This navigation system uses tire turning data and is designed to work
with factory-specied tires for the vehicle. Installing tires that are
larger or smaller than the originally equipped diameter may cause
inaccurate display of the current position. The tire pressure also
aects the diameter of the tires, so make sure that the tire pressure
of all 4 tires is correct.
MAP DATA
REGARDING ROADS AND PLACE NAME DATA
When maps are created, land surveys are conducted and
informationon road improvements and reopening is collected
to provide the most accurate information possible. However,
modicationsto roads, place names and facilities may be carried
out at any time. Consequently, we cannot guarantee that map
data contains no errors in road positions, conguration and
names, or in facility names.
SUBARU MAP UPDATE
Map data can be updated using the following methods:
● USB memory: All map data can be updated at once.
