NOTE 
While you are holding down either side 
of the“TUNE TRACK ”button, the
tuning frequency will not stop chan-
ging even if the frequency of a recei-
vable station is reached. ! Seek tuning
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. ! Automatic 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-

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 
(10) 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

not be functioning normally. In this event, 
go to a SUBARU dealer to have the
system inspected as soon as possible. 
While the vehicle is driven, friction be- 
tween tires and the road surface causes 
the tires to warm up. After illumination of 
the low tire pressure warning light, any
increase in the tire pressures caused by
an increase in the outside air temperature
or by an increase in the temperature in the
tires can cause the low tire pressure
warning light to turn off. 
System resetting is necessary when the 
wheels are changed (for example, a
switch to snow tires) and new TPMS
valves are installed on the newly fitted
wheels. Have this work performed by a
SUBARU dealer following wheel replace-ment. 
It may not be possible to install TPMS 
valves on certain wheels that are on the
market. Therefore, if you change the
wheels (for example, a switch to snow
tires), use wheels that have the same part
number as the standard-equipment
wheels. Without four operational TPMS
valve/sensors on the wheels, the TPMS
will not fully function and the warning light
in the instrument panel will illuminate
steadily after blinking for approximately
one minute. When a tire is replaced, adjustments are
necessary to ensure continued normal
operation of the tire pressure monitoring
system. As with wheel replacement, there-
fore, you should have the work performed
by a SUBARU dealer.
WARNING
If the low tire pressure warning light 
does not illuminate briefly after the
ignition switch is turned ON or the
light illuminates steadily after blink-
ing for approximately one minute,
you should have your Tire Pressure
Monitoring System checked at a 
SUBARU dealer as soon as possi- ble. 
If this light illuminates while driving, 
never brake suddenly and keep
driving straight ahead while gradu-
ally reducing speed. Then slowly
pull off the road to a safe place.
Otherwise an accident involving
serious vehicle damage and serious
personal injury could occur. 
If this light still illuminates while 
driving after adjusting the tire pres-
sure, a tire may have significant
damage and a fast leak that causes
the tire to lose air rapidly. If you have
a flat tire, replace it with a spare tire as soon as possible. 
When a spare tire is mounted or a 
wheel rim is replaced without the
original pressure sensor/transmitter
being transferred, the low tire pres-
sure warning light will illuminate
steadily after blinking for approxi-
mately one minute. This indicates
the TPMS is unable to monitor all
four road wheels. Contact your
SUBARU dealer as soon as possible
for tire and sensor replacement and/
or system resetting. If the light
illuminates steadily after blinking
for approximately one minute,
promptly contact a SUBARU dealer
to have the system inspected.
& Tire inspection
Check on a daily basis that the tires are
free from serious damage, nails, and
stones. At the same time, check the tires
for abnormal wear. 
Contact your SUBARU dealer immedi- 
ately if you find any problem. NOTE . When the wheels and tires strike
curbs or are subjected to harsh treat- 
ment as when the vehicle is driven on a
rough surface, they can suffer damage
