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 differ 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 improvements 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.

INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION 9 Do not use any feature of this system to the extent it becomes a distraction and prevents 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. Prior to the actual use of this system, learn how to use it and become thoroughly familiar with it. Read the entire manual to make sure you understand the system. Do not allow other people to use this system until they have read and understood the instructions in this manual. For your safety, some functions may become inoperable when driving. Unavailable screen buttons are dimmed. Only when the vehicle is not moving, can the destination and route selection be done. WARNING llFor safety, the driver should not operate the system while he/she is driving. Insufficient attention to the road and traffic may cause an accident. llWhile 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. 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, 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.

NOTE llThe 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. TIPS FOR OPERATING THE AUDIO SYSTEM 150 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 vehicle’s antenna at the same time. If this happens, the signals will cancel each other out, causing a momentary flutter or loss of reception. Static and fluttering: These occur when signals are blocked by buildings, trees or other large objects. Increasing the bass level may reduce static and fluttering. 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 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 external sources of electrical noise, such as high tension power lines, lightening or electrical motors. This results in static.

(→P.183) SETUP 180 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 configuration, 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 llThe 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. TIPS FOR THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM 181 Navigation System 7 ●●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 specifications. • 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 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 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 • 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 llThis 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. MAP DATA REGARDING ROADS AND PLACE NAME DATA When maps are created, land surveys are conducted and information on road improvements 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. SUBARU MAP UPDATE Map data can be updated using the following methods: ●●USB memory: All map data can be updated at once. →P.184 ●●Wi-Fi®: Individual regions can be selected and their map data updated.* →P.186 ●● Smartphone: Individual regions can be selected and their map data updated.
