VOICE RECOGNITION
With SUBARU STARLINK®, simple voice commands can control
features like navigation, entertainment, phone calls, and, on select
models, climate control. A microphone is located in the overhead
console. You do not need to speak directly into it.
Visit www.subaru.com/owners/starlink/multimedia.html for
more information.
Press the voice recognition switch to start the voice recognition
system. Press and hold the switch to cancel it.
For help with what you can say with voice recognition, press the “Help” button on the
screen or press the voice recognition button and say “Help”.
Tips
The system may not recognize the voice command due to various types of interference.
Some causes for voice command interference are:
• The command is spoken too quickly or at a low or high volume.
• The command is incorrect or unclear.
• The window is open, the climate control system is set on high, or the ventilation is
directed toward the microphone.
• Passengers are talking while the command is spoken.
In some cases, you may not be able to use voice commands if the system cannot properly
recognize the command. For example, the command is incorrect or unclear.
NOTE: The system is designed to recognize a variety of commands, but certain words,
accents or speech patterns may be difficult for the system to recognize.
Google Assistant:May not work with all devices or may not be compatible with the audio
system.
Siri Eyes Free:Press and hold the Voice Recognition Button when your phone is
connected via bluetooth for Siri Eyes Free.

STARLINK SAFETY AND SECURITY

Pre-Collision Braking
This function helps prevent or minimize a
frontal collision with another vehicle,
pedestrian, or other objects by providing
visual and audible warnings. Warnings are
displayed in the Combination Meter Display
(CMD) with audible beeps. If you take no
corrective action, the system automatically
reduces engine power and applies the brakes
with increasing force to help prevent or
minimize the collision.
This system can be turned on or off in the
Center Information Display (CID) (see
page 102).
Pre-Collision Brake Assist
This function recognizes a possible collision with another vehicle, a pedestrian, or object in
front while you are applying the brakes. If the system determines not enough force is
applied, it can assist by applying additional pressure to the braking system to decrease
stopping distance.
This system can be turned on or off in the Center information Display (CID) (see page 102).
Pre-Collision Throttle Management
This function is designed to help prevent you from unintentionally accelerating into a
stopped vehicle or other obstacle by reducing engine power. Warnings are displayed in the
Combination Meter Display (CMD) with audible beeps.
Pre-Collision Throttle Management is helpful when:
• You unintentionally place the select lever in the “D” position instead of the “R” position
and start to accelerate toward a parked car, wall or parking structure.
• While you are at a stop, the vehicle ahead of you accelerates, but then suddenly slows
down or stops as you begin to accelerate.
This system can be turned on or off in the Center Information Display (CID) (see page 102).
