NOTE
While you are holding down either side
of the TUNE/TRACK button, the tuning
frequency will not stop changing even
if the frequency of a receivable station
is reached. ! Seek tuning (SEEK)
If you press the “
”or “”side of the
“ SEEK FLDR ”button (7), the radio will
automatically search for a receivable
station and stop at the first one it finds.
This function may not be available, how-
ever, when radio signals are weak. In such
a situation, perform manual tuning to
select the desired station. ! Scan tuning (SCAN)
Press the “SCAN ”button (8) to change the
radio to the SCAN mode. In this mode, the
radio scans through the radio band until a
station is found. The radio will stop at the
station for 5 seconds while displaying the
frequency, after which scanning will con-
tinue until the entire band has been
scanned from the low end to the high
end. Press the “SCAN ”button again to
cancel the SCAN mode and to stop on any
displayed frequency.
Press the “
”or “”side of the “SEEK
FLDR ”button (7) again to cancel the scan
mode and to stop on any displayed frequency.
When the
“SCAN ”button is pressed for
automatic tuning, stations are scanned in
the direction of low frequencies to high
frequencies only.
Automatic tuning may not function prop-
erly if the station reception is weakened by
distance from the station or proximity to
tall buildings and hills. ! Selecting preset stations
Presetting a station with a preset button
allows you to select that station in a single
operation. Up to six AM, FM1 and FM2
stations each may be preset. ! How to preset stations
1. Press the “FM AM ”button (2) to select
FM1, FM2 or AM reception.
2. Press the “SCAN ”button (8) or tune
the radio manually until the desired station
frequency is displayed.
3. Press one of the preset buttons for
more than 1.5 seconds to store the
frequency. If the button is pressed for less
than 1.5 seconds, the preceding selection
will remain in memory. NOTE . If the connection between the radio
and battery is broken for any reason
such as vehicle maintenance or radio removal, all stations stored in the
preset buttons are cleared. If this
occurs, it is necessary to reset the
preset buttons..
If a cell phone is placed near the
radio, it may cause the radio to emit
noise when it receives calls. This noise
does not indicate a radio malfunction. ! Satellite radio mode (if equipped)
To receive satellite radio, it is necessary to
install the SUBARU genuine satellite
receiver (optional part) and to enter into
a contract with a satellite radio network
service such as “XM
TMsatellite radio ”(for
U.S.A. only) or “Sirius satellite radio ”. For
details, please contact your SUBARU
dealer. ! 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 channels.
Use of satellite radio (Sirius) requires a
tuner, antenna and a service contract. For
details, please contact your SUBARU
dealer or visit Sirius Satellite 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 RadioInc.

!XMTMsatellite radio (for U.S.A. only)
XMTMis a continental U.S. based satellite
radio service, including music, news,
sports, talk and children ’s programming.
XM
TMprovides digital quality audio and
text information, including song title and
artist name. A service fee is required to
receive the XM
TMservice. For more
information, contact XMTMatwww.xmradio.com or call 1-800-
XMRADIO (1-800-967-2346). ! 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 circum-
stances that may result in signal loss
include driving near a wall, steep cliff or
hill, or driving on the lower level of a multi-
tiered road or inside 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. ! Displaying satellite radio ID of tuner
When you activate satellite radio, you
should have your satellite radio tuner ID ready because each tuner is identified by
its unique satellite radio tuner ID.
The satellite radio ID will be needed when
you activate satellite radio and receive
satellite radio customer support.
The satellite radio ID can be found on the
audio display by tuning the channel to
“0 ”.
Turn the “TUNE/TRACK ”button (4) to
select the satellite radio channel. ! Band selection button
Push the “SAT ”button (1) when the radio
is off to turn on the radio.
Push the “SAT ”button when the radio is
on to select SAT1, SAT2 or SAT3 recep- tion. ! Channel selection

channel.
Keep pressing “

change to the next channel continuously
and keep pressing “
”of the button to
change to the previous channel continu-
ously. ! Category selection
Press “
”or “”of the “SEEK FLDR ”
button (7) to display the current category. Press “
”again to select the next category, and press
“
”again to select
the previous category. ! Channel scan
Press the “SCAN ”button (8) to change the
radio to the SCAN mode. In this mode, the
radio scans through the channels until a
station is found. The radio will stop at the
station for 5 seconds while displaying the
channel number, after which scanning will
continue until the entire channel has been
scanned from the low end to the high end.
Also during the category selection, chan-
nel scan can be performed in that cate-
gory.
Press the “SCAN ”button again to cancel
the SCAN mode and to stop on any
displayed channel. ! Selecting preset channels

7-8Starting and operating
started. The fuel injection system auto-
matically lowers the idle speed as the
engine warms up.
While the engine is warming up, make
sure that the select lever is at the “P ” or
“ N ”position and that the parking brake is
applied. NOTE . The engine may be difficult to start
when the battery has been discon-
nected and reconnected (for mainte-
nance or other purposes). This diffi-
culty is caused by the electronically
controlled throttle ’s self-diagnosis
function. To overcome it, keep the
ignition switch in the “ON ”position
for approximately 10 seconds before
starting the engine.. To protect the engine while the
select lever is in the “P ” or “N ”
position, the engine is controlled so
that the engine speed may not become
too high even if the accelerator pedal is
depressed hard. Stopping the engine
WARNING
Do not stop the engine when the
vehicle is moving. This will cause
loss of power to the power steering
and the brake booster, making steer-
ing and braking more difficult. It
could also result in accidental acti-
vation of the “LOCK ”position on the
ignition switch, causing the steering
wheel to lock.
The ignition switch should be turned off
only when the vehicle is stopped and the
engine is idling. Remote engine start system
(dealer option)
WARNING
. Do not start the engine using the
remote start system in an en-
closed environment (e.g. closed
garage). Prolonged operation of
a motor vehicle in an enclosed
environment can cause a harmful
build-up of Carbon Monoxide.
Carbon Monoxide is harmful to
your health. Exposure to high
levels of Carbon Monoxide can
cause headaches, dizziness or in
extreme cases unconsciousness
and/or death.
. Before performing any servicing
of the vehicle, temporarily place
the remote engine start system in
service mode to prevent the
system from unexpectedly start-
ing the engine.
