Note on Handling
■ Liquid crystal panel
Carefully read the following information for a longer service life of the
system.
• The touch keys on the display operate when slightly touched. Do not
press the touch key screen with a strong force.
• Do not push the case surrounding the touch key panel with a strong
force. This may cause the touch keys to malfunction.
• Subjecting the operation panel to shocks may result in breakage,
deformation or other damage.
• Do not use a protection film on the display to avoid damage. The
system may not work properly or may not accept touching opera-
tions performed on the screen.
• Do not burn the display by cigarettes, cigars, etc. Doing so may dam-
age or deform the cabinet.
• Do not get the system wet from drinks, umbrellas, etc.
Doing so may damage the internal circuitry.
• Do not insert objects or poke in the space between the operation
panel and the main unit.
• Do not disassemble or modify the unit in any way.
Doing so may result in damage.
• In extremely cold weather conditions, the display movement may
become slower and the display may darken. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
The display will work normally when the temperature increases.
• Small black and shiny spots inside the liquid crystal panel are normal
for LCD products.
• If any problems occur, contact the nearest SUBARU dealer.
■ Cleaning the liquid crystal panel
The liquid crystal panel tends to collect dust, so wipe it off occasionally
with a soft cloth. The surface is easily scratched, so do not rub it with a
hard object.

16 Navigation
Before Use
WARNING
READ THIS MANUAL FIRST
Read this supplement carefully before using the navigation
system. We are not liable for accidents or other problems
resulting from failure to follow the instructions in this sup-
plement.
OBEY LOCAL ROAD SIGNS AND REGULATIONS
Always obey local road signs and regulations while following
instructions given by the navigation system. Some of the
data on the DVD-ROM disc may be outdated due to changes
in local road signs and regulations. Furthermore, the data on
the DVD-ROM disc does not take into account variable fac-
tors such as the weather, road congestion at different times
of the day, temporary road closures due to road construc-
tion, and special events. Local road signs and regulations
always take precedence over directions given by the system.
Failure to obey them could place you in physical danger or in
violation of the law.
DRIVE SAFELY
• Before following an instruction (for example, in the case of
changing direction) given by the system, check that the action
would be safe to take in the current traffic conditions. Continue
to pay attention to safety while following any instruction.
• Do not be distracted by the navigation screen.
Failure to keep your attention on the road could lead to an acci-
dent. When you need to look at the screen while driving, do so
for the shortest time possible and avoid staring at the screen.
• You must stop the vehicle in a safe place before operating
the navigation system. For safety's sake, some of the naviga-
tion system's controls and functions cannot be used unless
the vehicle is stationary.
• When you need to look at the navigation screen, do so for
the shortest time possible. Looking away from the road for
too long could lead to an accident.
• Use this system only in locations where it is legal to do so.
Some states/provinces may have laws prohibiting video
screens within sight of the driver.
• If you stare at the display with too much enthusiasm or oper-
ate the switches of the system while in driving, the naviga-
tion system could cause your attention to be distracted from
the current traffic conditions. Please be sure to input in the
system as much information as possible before taking your
departure. And also please be sure to bring your car to a
stop in a safe place if you need to input information.
• The buttons for the touch screen that cannot be used are
greyed out.
Operating the navigation system while in driving could cause
your attention to be distracted from the current traffic condi-
tions. And in consequence, this could result in a severe or fatal
accident. Follow the descriptions of all operations and the
instructions for safety given in this manual without fail.
VOLUME LEVEL
• Keep the system's volume level low enough for you to be
able to hear outside sounds while driving. To do otherwise
may prevent you from reacting appropriately to traffic con-
ditions and could result in an accident.
Navigation 17
Before Use
NOTE
• For safety reasons, the use of some functions may be unavailable while
in driving. The button for a touch screen that cannot be used will be
greyed out.
• Liquid crystal displays may be difficult to read when wearing polarized
glasses.
CAUTION
FOREIGN OBJECTS
Do not allow foreign objects to enter the disc insertion slot,
including your fingers.
Foreign objects inside the system's main unit could cause an
electric shock or a fire. If the main unit emits smoke or an
unusual smell, stop using the system immediately and con-
tact the nearest SUBARU dealer.
NEVER DISASSEMBLE OR MODIFY THE SYSTEM
Any attempt to disassemble or modify any part of the system could
lead to an electric shock or a fire, or some other type of accident.
Do not continue using the navigation system if it malfunctions
If the system shows any sign of malfunctioning (for example,
the navigation system gives no picture), stop using it imme-
diately and contact the nearest SUBARU dealer.
Continuing to use the system could lead to a fire, an electric
shock, or some other type of accident.
CAUTION
If the navigation system gets contaminated, emits smoke or an
odd smell, stop using it
If a foreign object gets inside the system, liquid is spilled
onto the system, or the system emits smoke or an unusual
smell, stop using it immediately and contact the nearest
SUBARU dealer. Continuing to use the system could lead to a
fire, an electric shock, or some other type of accident.
18 Navigation
Before Use
■ Points to note before use
Starting the engine before using the system
The navigation system can be used with the ignition key in either the
ON position or the ACC position. To preserve the battery, however, it
should be used with the engine running whenever possible. Using
the system for a long time with the engine off can cause the battery
to run down.
Delay before display of current position
The system will not immediately display a correct indication of your
vehicle's current position after being switched on for the first time or
after the battery has been disconnected for a long time. It will display
a correct current position indication as soon as it receives Global Posi-
tioning System (GPS) signals.
Program reloading after battery disconnection
The navigation program will be erased from the system's memory if
the battery is disconnected. If this happens, load the provided DVD-
ROM disc in the system's main unit and turn the ignition switch to
the ON or ACC position. The system will automatically reload the pro-
gram and start operating normally again.
Incorrect operation on rough roads
The system may operate incorrectly or be unable to read the data on
the DVD-ROM disc when subjected to severe vibration caused by
driving on rough roads.
Handling the GPS antenna
Do not paint the antenna. Doing so could impair or prevent signal
reception.
Disabled switches
Some switches are disabled during operation of the system. These
switches are displayed in fainter colors and no messages are dis-
played for them.
Risk of damage to the main unit
Be mindful of the occupant compartment temperature. Using the
system when the occupant compartment temperature is extremely
high or low can damage it or cause it to malfunction. Also, note that
the system's main unit can be damaged by strong vibration and by
any metallic object or water that gets inside.
Condensation
Condensation can form on the lens inside the main unit when there
is a rapid change in occupant compartment temperature (for exam-
ple, when the heater is switched on in cold weather). Such condensa-
tion can cause the system to operate abnormally. If you wait an hour
or so for the condensation to disappear, the system should start
working normally again. If normal operation is still not restored after
several hours, we recommend that you contact the nearest SUBARU
dealer.
Replacing the DVD-ROM disc
If you need to replace the DVD-ROM disc, make sure the replacement
disc is compatible with your system's main unit. Inserting an incom-
patible disc could damage the unit.
Navigation 19
Before Use
■ Handling precautions for DVD-ROM discs
• Handle DVD-ROM discs carefully. Any DVD-ROM disc with exces-
sive warping or scratches on its surface can cause reading errors.
• Store DVD-ROM discs away from direct sunlight, which can cause
warping and render them unusable.
• DVD-ROM discs rotate at high speeds inside the system's main
unit. Never use a cracked or badly warped disc; doing so could
damage the unit.
• To clean a DVD-ROM disc, lightly wipe it with a soft cloth in
straight lines from the center hole toward the outer edge.
• Never clean DVD-ROM discs with benzene, thinner, record spray,
antistatic spray, or chemical swabs.

General Information
■ Accuracy of vehicle position
Area in which GPS signals cannot be received
Because the radiowave signals from the GPS satellites travel primarily
by line of sight, the navigation system might not be able to receive
the signals in the areas described below.(If the GPS mark does not
appear on the map screen, it means that the GPS radiowave signals
are not being properly received.)
(1) Inside a tunnel
(2) Inside a building
(3) Under a three-dimensional road system such as for high speed
roads
(4) On boulevards lined with trees
(5) Between buildings
(6) Under a cliff or in a cave
• If the GPS antenna or its surroundings are blocked by an obstacle
(including cargo), it might not be possible for the system to
receive the GPS radiowave signals.
• If multiple paths are created due to the reflection from buildings,
a large measurement error could occur, causing the vehicle's
mark to deviate from its actual position.
Deviation of the vehicle's position mark
The vehicle's position mark could deviate from its actual position
when the vehicle is being driven under the conditions listed below or
due to conditions of the GPS satellites.
If the vehicle travels on a road whose actual shape differs from that in
the map data, the vehicle's mark could deviate from the actual posi-
tion. The correct position will eventually appear on the screen
through the correction function. If the screen does not show the cor-
rect position for an excessively long time, correct the current position
or make an automatic correction.
(1) The vehicle's mark could appear on a parallel road.
(2) When the road splits into a narrow Y, the vehicle's mark could
appear on the other fork of the Y.
(3) When the vehicle makes a right or left turn, the vehicle's mark
could appear on one street ahead or behind.
(4) If the vehicle is transported by means other than the vehicle's
own power, such as on a ferryboat, the vehicle's mark will
remain in the position it was before the transport until the sys-
tem can calculate the position through the GPS.
(5) When the vehicle is driven on a steep incline, the vehicle's mark
could deviate from its actual position.
(6) If there are continuous gradual curves in the same direction, the
vehicle's mark could deviate from its actual position.
(7) If the vehicle is driven in a zigzag pattern, such as through fre-
quent lane changes, the vehicle's mark could deviate from its
actual position.
(8) If the vehicle is placed on a turntable, such as in a parking area,
and turned with the ignition OFF, the vehicle's mark could devi-
ate from its actual orientation. The vehicle's mark could also
deviate even after the vehicle has exited the parking area.
(9) The vehicle's mark could deviate from its actual position if the
vehicle is driven using tire chains or snow tires on a snow-cov-
ered road or on a mountainous road.
100 Navigation
General Information
(10) The vehicle's mark could deviate from its actual position after
the tires have been replaced.
(11) While driving on a public road, if an expressway that is under
construction travels over the public road, the position mark of
the vehicle may be indicated on a different road.
(12) If other electronic devices are installed on the instrument panel,
these devices may adversely affect the GPS signal communica-
tion and the position of the vehicle may not be indicated cor-
rectly.
■ How the vehicle position is detected
Detecting the vehicle's position through the GPS
GPS stands for "Global Positioning System", which is a system used for
detecting an object's position through the use of satellites of the U.S.
Department of Defense.
Radiowave signals from three or more satellites are received by the
navigation system, which utilizes the principle of triangulation to
detect the position at which the radiowave signals are received.
When the navigation unit is receiving the GPS radiowave signals, a
"GPS" mark will appear on the map screen.
Detecting the vehicle's position through self-contained naviga-
tion
Self-contained navigation is a system that detects the vehicle's posi-
tion by calculating the vehicle's driven distance and turning angle
though the use of various types of sensors that are mounted on the
vehicle.
Through the use of self-contained navigation, the vehicle's position
can be detected even in an area where the GPS radiowave signals
cannot be received.
Making corrections to the detection of the vehicle's position
through map matching
• In map matching, the position information resulting from the
detection of the vehicle's position and the locus of the travel of
the vehicle up to the present are constantly compared to the
shape of the roads on the map in order to correct the vehicle's
position mark to the most appropriate road.
• If the vehicle is driven on a road whose actual shape differs from
its map data, the vehicle's position mark on the map could devi-
ate from its actual position.
Occasionally, the correction of the vehicle's position mark to the
actual road on the map can be observed, particularly after the
vehicle has turned at an intersection or has exited from a parking
area.
■ Accuracy of the route guidance
The conditions listed below do not indicate a malfunction.
(1) The guidance might prompt the driver to drive straight even
though the vehicle is being driven on a straight road.
(2) The directional guidance could display multiple place names.
(3) If the vehicle makes a turn at an intersection before the guided
route, the wrong type of voice guidance could be outputted.
(4) The guidance might not be outputted while the vehicle is mak-
ing a turn at an intersection.
(5) The system might not be able to search for the proper route.
Navigation 101
General Information
(6) If there is no road to the destination or if there is only a narrow
road, the route might be indicated up to an area that is short of
the destination.
(7) The repeat search could take a long time while the vehicle is
being driven at high speeds.
(8) While the system is searching again for the route, the route indi-
cation might not appear in time for the next right or left turn.
(9) The route might not change even if a search is made again.
(10) The system might guide the driver to make a U-turn.
(11) The system might guide the driver to a road that cannot actu-
ally be travelled (such as a road to which entry is prohibited).
(12) The system might not output guidance even if the vehicle is
driven in reverse on the guided route.
(13) The system might not use a local ferryboat even if the ferry pri-
ority is selected.
(14) If the intersection that you're being guided to is near the end of
the route search, the system might not be able to provide guid-
ance.
(15) The route might not go on a toll road even if the toll-road prior-
ity is selected.
Similarly, a route that uses a toll road could appear on the
screen even if the toll-road priority is not selected. (The driver
may or may not be able to select "toll-road priority" if both toll
and free roads are available.)

General Information
When a Problem Occurs
Confirm whether the problem is due to a minor operational error or a malfunction in the system by referring to the table below
before you contact your SUBARU dealer for any repair service.
The map does not scroll even when the vehicle is moving.
The screen shown might not be the current map screen.
See Page 26 of this manual for instructions on displaying the current map
screen.
The vehicle marker does not appear.
The screen shown might not be the current map screen.
See Page 26 of this manual for instructions on displaying the current map
screen.
The GPS marker is not displayed.
The GPS antenna or your vehicle might be in a position where GPS signals
cannot be received.
Try moving the GPS antenna or your vehicle to a position where there are no
obstacles around.
There is no voice guidance.
• Route guidance might be suspended.
• The guidance volume might be too low.
• See "Voice Guidance Volume" on Page 25.
Small spots or bright flashes appear on the screen display.
This is probably due to the natural characteristics of the liquid crystal
display (LCD).
There is nothing wrong with the display and no need for concern.
The DVD-ROM disc cannot be ejected.
The disc might be incompatible or might have been inserted incorrectly.

Voice activation system
The voice recognition function allows you to operate the navigation
system, audio system and hands-free phone system using your voice
instead of display screen handling. This section includes instructions
about how to perform the voice commands. The commands that can
be recognized by this system are restricted. (See Page 222.) For each
function, refer to the corresponding items.
■ Correct voice recognition
The interior circumstances of the vehicle will adversely affect the cor-
rect recognition of the voice. Note the following items in order for the
system to correctly recognize the voice.
• Speak clearly into the microphone. Speaking faster or slower and
pausing between words will cause incorrect recognition.
• Close the windows to eliminate outside noise. Traffic noises, driv-
ing sounds and wind noises may affect correct recognition of the
voice.
• Speak the voice commands correctly. The commands that can be
recognized by this system are restricted. Any terms other than
the recognized terms for the system or dull sounds that are incor-
rectly spoken will not be recognized by the system. If the name
of a facility is pronounced different from the recognized terms for
the system, the command will not be recognized by the system.
• The microphone is located at the best distance and in the best
direction for each model to gain the maximum voice recognition
performance. Speak commands in a correct driving posture.
• Do not speak commands during navigation voice guidance. This
causes sounds to overlap and results in incorrect voice recogni-
tion.
Basic operations of voice recognition
1 Press the button located on the steering switch.
The voice recognition mode is activated, and the icon of voice
recognition will be displayed on the upper left side of the screen.
2
While the icon is displayed, speak a voice command.

Voice activation system
During the voice recognition mode, the sound from the audio sys-
tem is muted.
(voice input waiting mode):
shows the status of waiting for a voice command.
(during a calculation):
shows the status of accepting and processing a voice command.
After a voice command is spoken, the system recognizes the voice and
activates the function input by the voice command. Then the system
confirms your command by voice guidance.
Pressing the button located on the steering wheel for a long
time during voice recognition will cancel the voice recognition mode.

Precautions when using the system
WARNING
READ THIS MANUAL FIRST
Read this supplement carefully before using the audio and visual
system. We are not liable for accidents or other problems resulting
from failure to follow the instructions in this supplement.
AVOID OPERATING THE AUDIO AND VISUAL system WHILE
DRIVING
You should stop the vehicle in a safe place before operating
the audio and visual system. For safety’s sake, some of the
audio and visual system’s functions cannot be used unless the
vehicle is stationary.
If you stare at the display with too much enthusiasm or oper-
ate the switches of the system while in driving, the navigation
system could cause your attention to be distracted from the
current traffic conditions. Please be sure to input in the system
as much information as possible before departure. And also
please be sure to bring the vehicle to a stop in a safe place if
you need to input information.
The buttons for a touch screen that cannot be used are dis-
played greyed out.
Operating the navigation system while in driving could cause
your attention to be distracted from the current traffic condi-
tions. And in consequence, this could result in a severe or fatal
accident. Always follow the descriptions of all operations and
the instructions for safety given in this manual.
LOOK AT THE AUDIO AND VISUAL SCREEN ONLY WHEN NECES-
SARY
When you need to look at the audio and visual screen, do so
for the shortest time possible. Looking away from the road
for too long could lead to an accident.
KEEP THE VOLUME LOW ENOUGH FOR YOU TO HEAR OUTSIDE
SOUNDS
Keep the system’s volume level low enough for you to be
able to hear outside sounds while driving. To do otherwise
may mean that you are unable to react appropriately to traf-
fic conditions thus resulting in an accident.
Audio and Visual 107
Before using the Audio and Visual system
■ About the audio and visual screen
• Subjecting the control buttons or liquid crystal display to excessive
shock could result in audio and visual screen deformation or other
damage.
• Keep any heat source (including lighted cigarettes) away from the
audio and visual screen. If a heat source is brought into contact with
the audio and visual system cabinet and panel, they could be
deformed or otherwise degraded.
• In extreme cold, the audio and visual screen may operate sluggishly
and the display may dim. Such conditions do not indicate a problem.
They will disappear when the cabin temperature rises to a normal
temperature.
• Tiny black and white dots may occasionally appear in the liquid crys-
tal display. These dots are a normal characteristic of the display. They
do not indicate a problem.
•
When the
audio and visual screen
requires cleaning, gently wipe it
with a silicone cloth or other soft cloth. If necessary, spray the cloth
with neutral cleaning fluid. Be sure to wipe away any cleaning fluid
left on the audio and visual screen. Do not spray the cleaning fluid
directly onto the
audio and visual screen
. Spraying cleaning fluid
directly onto the
audio and visual screen
could cause an adverse
effect on internal components. It is also not a good idea to wipe the
audio and visual screen
with a stiff cloth or attempt to clean it using
thinners, alcohol, or any other volatile solvent. Doing so could leave
scratches and/or erase the control button labels
.
• Do not allow the audio and visual screen to get wet. If it gets wet
(allowing, for example, to a spilled drink or wet umbrella), its internal
electronic circuitry may malfunction.
CAUTION
NEVER DISASSEMBLE OR MODIFY THE AUDIO AND VISUAL SYSTEM
Any attempt to disassemble or modify the audio and visual
system could lead to a fire, an electric shock, or some other
type of accident.
Do not continue using the audio and visual system if it mal-
functions
If the system shows any sign of malfunctioning (for example,
the monitor gives no picture), stop using it immediately and
contact the nearest SUBARU dealer. Continuing to use the
system could lead to a fire, an electric shock, or some other
type of accident.
If the audio and visual system gets contaminated, emits smoke
or an odd smell, stop using it
If a foreign object gets inside the system, liquid is spilled
onto the system, or the system emits smoke or an unusual
smell, stop using it immediately and contact the nearest
SUBARU dealer. Continuing to use the system could lead to a
fire, an electric shock, or some other type of accident.
108 Audio and Visual
Before using the Audio and Visual system
• In hot weather, cool the passenger compartment down before using
the audio and visual system. The liquid crystal display operates cor-
rectly at temperatures between 0°C and 60°C (32°F and 140°F). When
the temperature exceeds 60°C (140°F), the audio and visual system
circuit protection function is activated, causing the display to dim.
NOTE
• In the interest of safety, the use of some functions may be unavailable while in
driving. The buttons for a touch screen that cannot be used are displayed
greyed out.
• Liquid-crystal displays may be difficult to read when wearing polarized
glasses.

such as record spray, antistatic agent, alcohol, benzine and
thinner, or chemical duster. This may cause damage to the
disc, rendering it unusable.
• After pressing the disc eject switch, do not leave it in the
ejected condition for a long stretch of time. This may cause
warp to the disc, thus rendering it unusable.
• Store the disc away from direct sunlight, which may cause
warp to it, thus rendering it unusable.
• Discs that can be played back are limited only to those with a
circular form 12 cm in diameter.
Avoid using irregular sized discs, which may cause malfunc-
tion to the equipment.
• The DualDisc is not supported. Avoid using it, which may
cause malfunction to the equipment.

When there occurs an abnormal condition, the player stops
automatically to protect the inside mechanism of the player.
Even when conducting the operation according to the mes-
sage displayed on the screen and the function is stopped, a
malfunction may result. Get a checkup of the player at Subaru
Dealer.
In the following cases other than malfunction, the player may not oper-
ate normally.
• When the disc can not read due to it being stained.
• When the player is out of order.
• When an abnormal temperature of the player has been detected.
(When the sign disappears after the temperature of the player gets
back to the normal temperature, the player can be used.)
• When there occurs a dew condensation. (When it is cold or rains,
there occurs a dew condensation inside the player just as the inner
surface of the vehicle glass clouds up. In such a case, the audio
sound may be disturbed or the playback may be stopped. Ventilate
or dehumidify the player for a while before using it.)
• When vibrated severely due to driving on rough roads. (The sound
may be disturbed.)

when writing MP3/WMA files. The limited number of charac-
ters given below is the number of characters when using 1-

140 Audio and Visual
MP3/WMA disc functions
For details of the characters that can be used, refer to the instruction
manual of the writing software and "Input of file name and folder
name."
However, characters that can be displayed are as shown below.
• Half size characters (alphanumeric, and ASCII codes)
Characters other than the above are displayed with an asterisk "?."
However, discs that can be played back with this in-vehicle equipment
are accompanied by the following restrictions.
• Maximum directory layers: 8 layers
• Maximum number of files in a folder: 255
• Maximum number of folders: 254 (including the ROOT)
• Maximum number of characters used in a folder name: 64 characters
MP3/WMA files that are written in formats other than the above may
not be played back normally, and the file name and the folder name of
which may not be displayed correctly.
■ Setting of the compression software and the writing
software
When compressed into an MP3/WMA file, it is recommended that the
setting of the transfer bit rate of the compression software is "fixed" to
"128 kbps."
When recording a blank media up to the maximum capacity at once,
make a setting to "Disc at Once."
■ Input of a file name and a folder name
When inputting a file name and a folder name, input them in half size
alphanumeric characters. File names and folder names that are written
in characters other than the above may not be displayed correctly. And
depending on a writing software or a disc format used, characters that
can be displayed are restricted. For details, refer to the instruction man-
ual of the writing software. And files that can be acknowledged and
played back are restricted only to those attached with an extension
".MP3" or ".WMA." When saving an MP3/WMA file, be sure to attach it
with an extension ".MP3" or ".WMA."
Forbidden
If a file other than MP3/WMA is attached with an extension ".MP3" or
".WMA," it may be mistakenly acknowledged as an MP3/WMA file,
thus causing the generation of loud noises to damage the speaker.
So, do not attach any file other than MP3/WMA with an extension
".MP3" or ".WMA."
■ ID3/WMA Tag
ID3/WMA Tag is compliant (Ver.1.0, 1.1).
Audio and Visual 141
MP3/WMA disc functions
■ Files that are written into media
When media that contains MP3/WMA files is inserted, first of all, all the
files in the disc are checked.
So, when a lot of folders and files other than MP3/WMA are written into
the media to be played back, a lot of time is required before starting the
playback of the media.
And time may be required before proceeding to the playback of the
next MP3/WMA file, and a file search and a folder search cannot be con-
ducted smoothly.
■ Sequence in which MP3/WMA files are played back.
The sequence in which files and folders are selected while in the play-
back, folder search, file search and the folder selection is in the order in
which they are written with the writing software. Accordingly, the
sequence in which the files are expected to be played back may not
conform to the sequence in which the files are actually played back.
Depending on the writing software, entering "01" to "90" at the head of
the file name as a playback sequence with it written in CD-R may allow
you to set the sequence in which files are played back. Conducting a
folder search, a file search and a folder selection in the media of the fol-
lowing folder/file layer results in a media hierarchy as shown below.

Satellite radio operation (if equipped)
To receive satellite radio, it is necessary to install the Subaru
genuine satellite receiver and to enter into a contract. For
details, please contact your SUBARU dealer.
■ XM™ satellite radio
XM™ is a continental U.S. based satellite radio service, including music,
news, sports, talk and children’s programming.
XM™
provides digital quality audio and text information, including song
title and artist name. A service fee is required to receive the XM™ ser-
vice. For more information, contact XM™ at www.xmradio.com
or call 1-
800-XMRADIO (1-800-967-2346) for U.S.
■ Sirius satellite radio
Sirius satellite radio is a recent innovation that allows the listener to
experience digital sound quality and to have a greater variety of chan-
nels.
Use of satellite radio (Sirius) requires a tuner, antenna and a service con-
tract. For details, please contact your SUBARU dealer or visit Sirius Satel-
lite Radio at www.sirius.com
or call 1-888-539-SIRIUS (7474) for more
information. Sirius, the Sirius dog logo, channel names and logos are
trademarks of SIRIUS Satellite Radio Inc.
■ Satellite radio reception
Satellite radio signals are best received in areas with a clear view of the
open sky. In areas where there are tall buildings, trees, tunnels or other
structures that may obstruct the signal of the satellites, there may be
signal interruptions. Other circumstances that may result in signal loss
include driving near a wall, steep cliff, hill or driving on the lower level of
a multi-tiered road or inside of a parking garage.
To help reduce this condition, satellite radio providers have installed
ground-based repeaters in heavily populated areas. However, you may
still experience reception problems in some areas.

Voice activation system
The voice recognition function allows you to operate the nav-
igation system, audio system and hands-free phone system
using your voice instead of display screen handling. This sec-
tion includes instructions about how to perform the voice
commands. The commands that can be recognized by this
system are restricted. (See Page 222.) For each function, refer
to the corresponding items.
■ Correct voice recognition
The circumstance of the interior of the vehicle will adversely affect the
correct recognition of the voice. Note the following items in order for
the system to correctly recognize the voice.
• Speak clearly into the microphone. Speaking faster or slower and
pausing between words will cause incorrect recognition.
• Close the windows to eliminate outside noise. Traffic noise, driving
sounds and wind noise may affect the correct recognition of the
voice.
• Speak the voice commands correctly. The commands that can be
recognized by this system are restricted. Any terms other than the
recognized terms for the system or dull sounds that are incorrectly
spoken will not be recognized by the system. If the name of a facility
is pronounced differently from the recognized terms for the system,
the command will not be recognized by the system.
• The microphone is located at the best distance and in the best direc-
tion for each model to gain the maximum voice recognition perfor-
mance. Speak commands in the correct driving posture.
• Do not speak commands during navigation voice guidance or voice
recognition talk back. This causes sounds to overlap and results in
incorrect voice recognition.
Basic operations of voice recognition
1 Press the button located on the steering switch.
The voice recognition mode is activated, and the icon for voice
recognition will be displayed on the upper left side of the screen.
2 While the icon is displayed, speak a voice command.

Hands-Free
Phone System
232 Hands-Free Phone System
Before using the Hands-Free Phone System
What can be made with the Hands-Free Phone System
It is possible to connect the Bluetooth Phone of which the
operation has been confirmed to the in-vehicle equipment
through the Bluetooth format (wireless) to make a phone call
from the in-vehicle equipment or take an incoming phone
call.
Since the Bluetooth format is wireless, a connection between
the in-vehicle equipment and the Bluetooth Phone can be
made without placing them in the close vicinity of each other.
The Bluetooth Phone can be used with it left in the breast
pocket or bag.
The Bluetooth Phone that is compliant with the in-vehicle equipment
must meet the following requirements.
• Bluetooth Specification Ver. 1.1 or above (Ver. 1.2 or above is recom-
mended.)
• Corresponding Profiles are as shown below.
• HFP (Hands Free Profile) Ver. 1.0 (Ver. 1.5 or above is recommended.)
• OPP (Object Push Profile) Ver. 1.1
"Bluetooth" is a trademark of Bluetooth SIG, Inc.
What cannot be done with the Hands-Free
Phone System
In the following cases, the functions of the handsfree cannot be used.
• While not in the phone call area.
• While in the phone call being restricted due to the lines congested.
• When the phone book data is being transmitted from the Bluetooth
Phone.
• When the Bluetooth Phone is being used, due to data communica-
tion.
• When the Bluetooth Phone is out of order.
• When the Bluetooth Phone is not connected to the in-vehicle equip-
ment.
• When the battery of the Bluetooth Phone has run down.
• When the power switch of the Bluetooth Phone is turned off.
• When the Bluetooth Phone is not set to the handsfree mode.
• When a changeover is made on the in-vehicle side from the phone
book transmission to the handsfree.
• When the Bluetooth Phone cannot be used for other reasons.
Hands-Free Phone System 233
Before using the Hands-Free Phone System
Precautions to be taken when using the Bluetooth equipment
Please take note of the following when using the Bluetooth
equipment.
WARNING
• For safety's sake, the driver should avoid the operation of the
Bluetooth Phone while driving.
• Do not make a phone call while driving. When you have an
incoming call, bring your car to a stop in a safe place in a
calm manner before taking the incoming phone call. When
you have to absolutely take a phone call, tell the caller "I'll
call you back" by handsfree. And then call him back after
stopping the car in a safe place.
• The buttons for the touch screen that cannot be used are
displayed greyed out.
Operating the navigation system while in driving could cause
your attention to be distracted from the current traffic condi-
tions. And in consequence, this could result in a severe or fatal
accident. Follow the descriptions of all operations and the
instructions for safety given in this manual without fail.
• Please comply with the instructions specified in the laws and
regulations concerning the use of the telephone in the vehicle.
CAUTION
• Do not leave the Bluetooth Phone in the vehicle.
(The temperature in a sun-heated car may go up extremely high.)
• When using the Bluetooth Phone, be careful not to get it
close to the in-vehicle equipment. Getting it too close to the
in-vehicle equipment may result in deterioration in tone
quality or a poor connecting condition.
• The frequency band used by this equipment is the same
band on which other industrial, scientific and medical equip-
ment such as microwave ovens, radio stations (a license
required) to be used by the production line in the factory to
identify movable bodies, specific small power radio stations
(a license not required) and amateur radio stations (a license
required) is being operated. (These three type radio stations
mentioned above are hereinafter referred to as "other radio
stations.") Before using this equipment, be sure to check to
see if "other radio stations" are being operated in the vicin-
ity. Should there be a detrimental radio interference from
this equipment to "other radio stations," move the equip-
ment to another location as soon as possible to avoid radio
interference. The frequency band used by this equipment is
in the 2.4 GHz zone.
The FH-SS modulation is employed as a
modulation method. The expected inflicting interference dis-
tance is less than 10m. This equipment uses a full band and can
avoid a band used by a movable body identification device.
234 Hands-Free Phone System
Before using the Hands-Free Phone System
NOTE
• Depending on the type of cell phone that is used, the screen illumination of
the cell phone remains on while the ignition switch is in the "ON" position. If
this occurs, turn the illumination off by operating the cell phone settings. For
cell phone setting information, refer to the cell phone owner's manual.
• Depending on the setting of the cell phone, the dial lock may activate after
connection. Deactivate the dial lock of the cell phone before use.
• Depending on the cell phone to be connected, operation and the sound vol-
ume may be different from those of cell phones currently used.
• When the ignition switch is turned to the "OFF" or "LOCK" position during a
call, the call may be disconnected or continued on the cell phone depending
on the type of cell phone that is used. Note that operation of the cell phone
may be necessary if the call is continued on the cell phone.
• Do not speak at the same time with the other party during a call. If you and
the party speak at the same time, your voice may be difficult to be heard by
the party and vice versa. This does not indicate that there is a malfunction.
• The receiver sound volume should be set as low as possible. Otherwise, the
party you are calling may notice an undesirable echo sound. Speak clearly and
loudly.
• Your voice may be difficult to be heard by the party under the following con-
ditions.
-Driving on a rough road.
-Driving on an expressway.
-Driving with a window open.
-Air from the ventilator blows directly towards the microphone.
-The sound coming from the fan of the heater/cooler is loud.
-The cell phone is too close to the microphone.
• The sound quality may be degraded and noise or an echo will occur due to
the influence of the cell phone that is connected to the system or the circum-
stances of the Bluetooth network.
• When another Bluetooth device (such as a portable audio device) is simulta-
neously connected, noise may occur in the voice from the hands-free phone.
