VOICE RECOGNITION
With SUBARU STARLINK®, simple voice commands can control

console; however, you do not need to speak directly into it to
activate the voice command features. Press the Voice Recognition

Press and hold the button to cancel the system.
For help with what features are available with voice recognition,
press the "Help" button on the screen or press the voice recognition

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.
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.
