Profile”.
2. Select “Add New Profile”.
3. Select “Enter Name” to display the keyboard screen, and then type your name.

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.
Visit www.subaru.com/engineering/starlink/multimedia.html for
more information on what is available by connecting a phone to the
Touchscreen.
For instructions on how to pair your phone to the Touchscreen, see page 94 for
Android devices or page 98 for Apple devices.
MAKING A CALL
Once your phone is paired, you can make a call
through voice recognition by 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.
• Overview – Allows you to call the last number.
• Favorites – Allows you to place a call to one of your registered favorites.
• Recent – Allows you to call someone that has recently called you or that you called.
• Keypad – Allows you to dial any number you would like.
• Phonebook – Displays the phonebook from your phone.
