Introduction
Introduction
The symbols described below are found in this instruction manual as well as on the unit
itself to ensure its proper and safe usage and to prevent injury or damage to property.
Make sure you understand the meaning of these symbols before reading the rest of
this manual.
Read first
We recommend that you wait until the positioning stabilizes before starting to drive.
If you start to drive while the positioning is not complete, the indicated position may dif-
fer from the actual vehicle position.
The screens shown in this manual may differ from the actual screens depending on the
data type or when the map data was created.
When maps are created, land surveys are conducted and information on road improve-
ments and reopening is collected to provide the most accurate information possible.
However, modifications to 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, configuration and names, or in facility names.
Information in this manual that must be observed for the unit, and information that is
useful to know is indicated as follows.
Introduction
● This sign indicates a situation in which incorrect handling through disregard of written infor-
mation might result in death or serious personal injury.

Introduction
Precautions for use
● The main unit requires a 12 V DC power supply. The main unit should not be installed in any
vehicle which does not have a 12 V power system with a ground-connected negative side.
An installation other than the one intended may cause severe damage to the main unit, and
electric shock or serious injury to the users.
● Even when using the route guidance of the navigation system, be sure to drive by following
the actual traffic regulations. If you drive by following only the route guidance of the naviga-
tion system, you may violate the actual traffic regulations and cause a traffic accident.
● To ensure safety, the driver should not operate the navigation system while driving. Operat-
ing the navigation system while driving may result in an accidental steering wheel operation
or otherwise cause an acci
dent. Stop the vehicle before operating the navigation system.
Also, do not watch the screen while driving because doing so may be dangerous (ETC). Inat-
tention to road conditions ahead may result in an accident.
● The driver should not perform operations such as volume adjustment while driving. Inatten-
tion to road conditions ahead may result in an accident, so be sure to stop the vehicle in a
safe p
lace before performing the operation.
● The driver should not perform operations such as adding a location or setting the memory
while driving. Inattention to road conditions ahead may result in an accident, so be sure to
stop the vehicle in a safe place before performing the operation.
● Before viewing a video, be sure to stop the vehicle in a safe place and apply the parking
brake. To ensure safety, videos are not displayed during driving.
● To ensure safety, never operate a cell phone while driving.
● Do not disassemble or modify the unit. Doing so may result in an accident, fire or electric
shock.
● Do not let water or foreign objects enter the internal parts of the unit. Doing so may result in
smoke, fire or an electric shock.
● Do not use the unit when it is malfunctioning, such as when the screen is not lit or no sound
comes out. Doing so may result in an accident, fire or electric shock.
● Always replace fuses with fuses of the same specified capacity (amperage). Using a fuse
with a higher capacity than the specification may result in a fire.
● If a foreign object or water enters the unit, smoke or a strange odor may be emitted. If such
an abnormality occurs, stop using the unit immediately and contact your SUBARU dealer. An
accident, fire or electric shock may result if you continue to use the unit under these condi-
tions.
● In a thunderstorm, do not touch the antenna line or the unit. Lightning may cause an electric
shock.
● Do not park or stop in prohibited areas to use the unit.
● If direct sunlight shines into the vehicle, light may reflect off the product. Be very careful while
driving.
● Never use headphones or earphones while driving. Driving while not being able to hear
sounds from outside the vehicle may result in a traffic accident.

Introduction
● Although the unit can be used when the ignition switch is set to either ACC or ON, to protect
the battery, start the engine before using the unit.
● To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not leave the audio system on longer than
necessary when the engine is not running.
● Do not use the unit anywhere other than in a vehicle. Doing so may result in an electric
shock or other injury.
● While driving, 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.
● 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.
● Do not touch the hot parts of the unit. The hot parts may burn you.
● Do not use while there is an abnormality such as sound breakup or distortion. Doing so may
result in a fire.
● 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.
● 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.
● The touch buttons on the display screen may not operate correctly if condensation forms
inside them. If this happens, do not attempt to operate the buttons until the condensation has
disappeared.
● If juice or similar liquid is spilled on the display, wipe off immediately. Failure to do so may
result in product malfunction.
● The screen is easily marked by fingerprints and tends to attract dust, and should therefore
be cleaned occasionally. When cleaning, turn off the power, and wipe lightly with a soft, dry
cloth. To remove dirt, soak a soft cloth in neutral detergent and squeeze well before wiping.
Do not use a wet floor-cloth, organic solvents (benzene, ethanol, thinner, etc.), acids, or alka-
lis. Using such agent
s will result in screen deterioration. Furthermore, do not hit the screen or
rub it with hard objects.
● Do not apply a strong force to the display and surrounding panels. Doing so may result in
damage.
● Do not place a heavy object or apply a strong force near the display. Otherwise, a display
malfunction may be caused.
● Do not apply protective film to the display. Otherwise, the display may be difficult to see or
may not be operated properly.

Introduction
● SUBARU CORPORATION is not responsible for any damages to the purchaser or third par-
ties that occur from using the map data.
● We do not provide any replacements or refunds for any mistakes there may be in the map
data displays or contents, such as misspelling, omissions or misaligned positions.
● SUBARU CORPORATION makes no guarantee that the functions included in the map data
will be appropriate for the specific objectives of the purchaser.
● Functions that cannot be operated while driving have their colors toned down when the vehi-
cle is being driven, and their operation is disabled. Selecting a disabled button may result in
the display of an operation prohibited message on the screen.
● When using the unit for the first time after purchase, or after the battery was removed for a
long time, the current position may not be displayed correctly. Wait a short time until the GPS
positioning corrects the displayed position.
● This device is precision-engineered equipment and the recorded data can be lost as a result
of static electricity, electrical noise, vibration, or other influences. To protect the device
against data loss, we recommend keeping a separate record of the data that you record after
p
urchase.
● The screen may be adversely affected or disturbed by noise if electrical equipment that gen-
erates powerful electrical noise is used near the system. In such cases, keep the electrical
equipment at a distance, or refrain from use.
● The display may appear brighter when the temperature is low, or immediately after starting
the engine, however, this is a characteristic of the LED elements, and does not indicate a
fault. The display will return to its original brightness when the vehicle cabin has warmed up.
● When you look at the screen through polarized material such as polarized sunglasses, the
screen may be dark and hard to see. If so, look at the screen from different angles, adjust the
screen settings on the general settings screen or take off your sunglasses.
● It may be difficult to view the screen if the display is exposed to sunlight from an awkward
angle.
● The touch panel may function incorrectly or fail to respond if operated with objects other than
fingers (nails, operation when wearing gloves, pens, etc.)
● If the system functions unexpectedly such as an area other than the one touched being
selected, or failure to respond when touched, there is a possibility that another finger
or part
of the hand is in contact with display.
● Scratches on the system panel surface are easily noticeable, and it should therefore be han-
dled with care.
● If a device that uses wireless communication is installed in the vehicle, functions using a
Bluetooth device, the radio broadcast receiver, navigation system, etc. may not operate
properly.

This system is intended to assist in reaching the destination and, if used properly, can
do so. The driver is solely responsible for the safe operation of your vehicle and the
safety of your passengers.
Do not use any feature of this system to the extent it becomes a distraction and pre-
vents safe driving. The first priority while driving should always be the safe operation of
the vehicle. While driving, be sure to observe all traffic regulations.
Pri
or to the actual use of this system, learn how to use it and become thoroughly famil-
iar with it. Read the entire manual to make sure you understand the system. Do not

Introduction
While driving, listen to the voice instructions as much as possible and glance at the
screen briefly 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, i
ncluding
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. Som
e states/provinces may
have laws prohibiting the use of video and navigation screens next to the driver.
● For safety, the driver should not operate the system while he/she is driving. Insufficient atten-
tion to the road and traffic may cause an accident.
● While driving, be sure to obey the traffic regulations and maintain awareness of the road
conditions. If a traffic sign on the road has been changed, route guidance may not have the
updated information such as the direction of a one way street.

Tips for operating the audio system
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 lim-
ited range. The farther the vehicle is from a station, the weaker its signal will be. In
addition, reception conditions change constantly as t
he vehicle moves.
Here, some common reception problems that probably do not indicate a problem with
the radio are described.
FM
Fading and drifting stations: Generally, the effective 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 reflective, making it possible for 2 signals to reach the vehi-
cle’s antenna at the same time. If this happens, the signals will cancel each other out,
causing a momentary flutter or loss of reception.
Sta
tic and fluttering: These occur when signals are blocked by buildings, trees or other
large objects. Increasing the bass level may reduce static and fluttering.
St
ation 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 sec-
ond station until the original signal can be picked up again.
AM
Fading: AM broadcasts are reflected by the upper atmosphere — especially at night.
These reflected 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 reflected signal and a signal received directly from a radio
station are very nearly the same frequency, they can interfere with each other, making
it difficult to hear the broadcast.
Static: AM is easily affected by e
xternal sources of electrical noise, such as high ten-
sion power lines, lightening or electrical motors. This results in static.

● This system plays back files with .mp3/.wma/.m4a file extensions as
AAC/AAC+ v2/MP3/WMA files respectively. To prevent noise and playback
errors, use the appropriate file extension.
● MP3 files are compatible with the ID3 Tag Ver. 1.0, Ver. 1.1, Ver. 2.2 and Ver.
2.3 formats. This system cannot display folder name, file name and artist
name in other formats.
● WMA/AAC files can contain a WMA/AAC tag that is used in the same way as
an ID3 tag. WMA/AAC tags carry information such as file name and artist
name.
● This system can play back AAC files encoded by iTunes.
● The sound quality of MP3/WMA files generally improves with higher bit rates.
In order to achieve a reasonable level of sound quality, USB memory device
recorded with a bit rate of at least 128 kbps are recommended.
● MP3i (MP3 interactive) and MP3PRO formats are not compatible with the
audio device.
● When playing back files recorded as VBR (Variable Bit Rate) files, the play
time will not be correctly displayed if the fast forward or rewind operations are
used.
● It is not possible to check folders that do not include AAC/AAC+ v2/MP3/WMA
files.
● AAC/AAC+ v2/MP3/WMA files in folders up to 3 levels deep can be played.
However, the start of playback may be delayed when using USB m
emory
device containing numerous levels of folders. For this reason, we recommend
creating USB memory device with no more than 2 levels of folders.
● The play order may change depending on the personal computer and
AAC/AAC+ v2/MP3/WMA encoding software that were used.

GPS (Global Position 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 radio wave signals from GPS
satellites are weak or when signals are received from only two satell
ites 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 configuration, vehicle condition or other circum-
stances.
● To adjust the voice guidance volume: →P.41
● Setting voice guidance: →P.119
● Voice guidance may be made early or late.
● If the system cannot determine the current position correctly, you may not hear voice guid-
ance or may not see the magnified intersection on the screen.

Tips for the navigation system
NB8_北米英語.book 135 ページ

Tips for the navigation system
The Global Positioning System (GPS) developed and operated by the U.S. Depart-
ment of Defense provides an accurate current position, normally using 4 or more satel-
lites, 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 posi-
tioning errors of up to 300 feet (100 m) can and should be expect
ed. Generally, posi-
tion 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.

● The installation of window tinting may obstruct the GPS signals. Most window tinting con-
tains 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 turnta-
ble 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 specifications.
● When the tire pressure in any of the 4 tires is not correct.
● Inappropriate route guidance may occur in the following cases:
● When t
urning at an intersection off 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 a
vailable 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.

Tips for the navigation system
Map data
Regarding roads and place name data
When maps are created, land surveys are conducted and information on road improve-
ments and reopening is collected to provide the most accurate information possible.
However, modifications to 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, configuration an
d names, or in facility names.
● This navigation system uses tire turning data and is designed to work with factory-specified
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 affects
the diameter of the tires, so make sure that the tire pressure of all 4 tires is correct.
