then “Driver Profile”.
2. Select “Add New Profile”.

keyboard screen then type your name. Now

Bluetooth®
Your Subaru has Bluetooth®hands-free technology to manage your phone and audio
systems. Bluetooth®-enabled mobile phones link directly through your Touchscreen
automatically once connected. Bluetooth®Hands-free allows you to receive and initiate
calls, or play music directly from your device while keeping it stowed for safety.
For step-by-step instructions on how to pair a Bluetooth
®device to the Touchscreen,
please see page 94 for Android devices or page 98 for Apple devices. A QR code and link
to more information on pairing a Bluetooth
®device can also be found on page 60.
CD(if equipped)
The CD player holds a single disc. To access the CD menu, put a CD in the player or select
the CD icon on the “Media” Screen. Depending on the CD format, the CD album art work
may appear on the Touchscreen.
USB / iPod
You can plug in a USB memory storage device or iPod into the USB ports. This will bring
up the media screen with controls. If using an iPod, make sure to use an Apple certified
cable or MFi certified cable for proper operation.
Aux Input
The Aux jack is a port that allows input from an
audio device such as MP3 players, portable
music players, and iPods. To access the Aux
menu, plug in the device to the Aux jack and
the menu will appear, or select the Aux menu
from the “Media” Screen.

PAIRING A PHONE
To begin using your Bluetooth®Hands-free device you must first
pair your phone with the system. Phone pairing provides access to
the contact list on your phone and allows you to use the voice
recognition system to make and receive calls. The system can also
read incoming text messages, as well as allowing you to reply to
texts or send short messages. The system automatically reconnects
to your Bluetooth
®device and will remember your driver profile.
For instructions on how to pair your phone to the Touchscreen,
see page 94 for Android devices or page 98 for Apple devices.

details on what is available by connecting a phone to the Touchscreen.

pressing the “Voice Recognition Switch” on the
steering wheel. After pressing the “Voice Recognition
Switch”, wait for the “Voice Guidance” screen to
appear on the Touchscreen and say “Call [name and
phone type]” or “Dial [number]”.
To make a call from the Touchscreen, start by pushing
the “Home” button and then select “Phone”. After the
phone screen displays, select the method you would
like to use to make a call.
