NOTE
While you are holding down either sideof the TUNE/TRACK button, the tuningfrequency will not stop changing evenif the frequency of a receivable stationis reached.
!Seek tuning (SEEK)
If you press the“”or“”side of the“SEEK FLDR”button (7), the radio willautomatically search for a receivablestation and stop at the first one it finds.This function may not be available, how-ever, when radio signals are weak. In suchasituation,performmanualtuningtoselect the desired station.
!Scan tuning (SCAN)
Press the“SCAN”button (8) to change theradio to the SCAN mode. In this mode, theradio scans through the radio band until astationis found. The radio will stop at thestation for 5 seconds while displaying thefrequency, after which scanning will con-tinue until the entire band has beenscannedfrom the low end to the highend. Press the“SCAN”buttonagain tocancel the SCAN mode and to stop on anydisplayed frequency.
Press the“”or“”side of the“SEEKFLDR”button (7) again to cancel the scanmode and to stop on any displayed
frequency.
When the“SCAN”button is pressed forautomatic tuning, stations are scanned inthe direction of low frequencies to highfrequencies only.
Automatic tuning may not function prop-erly if the station reception is weakened bydistance from the station or proximity totall buildings and hills.
!Selecting preset stations
Presetting a station with a preset buttonallows you to select that station in a singleoperation. Up to six AM, FM1 and FM2stations each may be preset.
!How to preset stations
1. Press the“FM AM”button (2) to selectFM1, FM2 or AM reception.
2. Press the“SCAN”button (8) or tunethe radio manually until the desired stationfrequency is displayed.
3. Press and hold one of the presetbuttons to store the frequency. If thebutton is pressed briefly, the precedingselection will remain in memory.
NOTE
.If the connection between the radioand battery is broken for any reasonsuch as vehicle maintenance or radioremoval, all stations stored in the
preset buttons are cleared. If thisoccurs, it is necessary to reset thepreset buttons..If a cell phone is placed near theradio, it may cause the radio to emitnoise when it receives calls. This noisedoes not indicate a radio malfunction.
!Satellite radio mode (if equipped)
To receive satellite radio, it is necessary toinstall the SUBARU genuine satellitereceiver (optional part) and to enter intoa contract with a satellite radio networkservice such as“Sirius XMTMsatelliteradio”(for U.S.A. only) or“Sirius satelliteradio”(for Canada only). For details,please contact your SUBARU dealer.
!Sirius satellite radio (for Canadaonly)
Refer to“Sirius satellite radio (for Canadaonly)”F5-7.
!Sirius XMTMSatellite Radio Acti-vation (for U.S.A. only)

8-6Driving tips
On-road and off-road driving
WARNING
.In a rollover crash, an unbeltedperson is significantly morelikely to die than a person wear-ing a seatbelt. You the driver andall your passengers should fas-ten the seatbelts before startingto drive in order to minimize thechance of serious injury or death.
.Do not make sharp turns andquick maneuvers unless abso-lutely unavoidable. Such actionsare dangerous as you may losecontrol, possibly resulting in arolloverwhich could cause deathor serious injury.
.Always maintain a safe drivingspeed according to the road andweather conditions in order toavoid havingan accident on asharp turn, during sudden brak-ing or under other similar condi-tions.
.Whenever strong crosswinds arepresent, slow down sufficientlyto maintain control of your vehi-cle. Remember that your vehicle,with its higher profile and center
of gravity, is more likely to beaffected by crosswinds than or-dinary passenger cars.
.Always use the utmost care indriving–overconfidence be-cause you are driving an All-Wheel Drive model could easilylead to a serious accident.
Yo u r v e h i c l e i s c l a s s i f i e d a s a u t i l i t yvehicle. Utilityvehicles feature a higherground clearance which enables them tobe used for wide applications including off-road driving. But please keep in mind thatyour vehicle is neither a conventional off-road vehicle nor an all-terrain vehicle. Ahighercenter of gravity in relation to thetread width as compared with ordinarypassenger cars makes vehicles of thistype more likely to roll over. In reality, utilityvehicles have a significantly higher roll-over rate thanother types of vehicles. Thehigh ground clearance of this vehicle is areal advantage, giving you a better view ofthe road and allowing you to anticipateproblems earlier. However, remember thatyour utility vehicleis not designed for high-speed cornering comparable to ordinarypassenger cars and that your vehiclecould roll over if you make a sharp turnat high speed. If you do take yourSUBARU off-road, certain common sense
precautions such as those in the followinglist should be taken.
.Make certain that you and all of yourpassengers are wearing seatbelts.
.Carry some emergency equipment,such as a towing rope or chain, a shovel,wheel blocks, first aid kit and cell phone orcitizens band radio.
.Drive carefully. Do not take unneces-sary risks by driving in dangerous areas orover rough terrain.
.Slow down and employ extra caution atall times. When driving off-road, you willnot have the benefit of marked trafficlanes, banked curves, traffic signs andthe like.
.Do not drive across steep slopes.Instead, drive either straight up or straightdown the slopes. A vehicle can muchmore easily tip over sideways than it canend over end. Avoid driving straight up ordown slopes that are too steep.
.Avoid sharp turning maneuvers, espe-cially at higher speeds.
.Do not grip the inside or spokes of thesteering wheel. A bad bump could jerk thewheel andinjure your hands. Instead drivewith your fingers and thumbs on theoutside of the rim.
.If driving through water, such as whencrossing shallow streams, first check the
