Before Using the Navigation System
WARNING
Read this manual first
Read this manual carefully before using the navigation
system. We are not liable for accidents or other problems
resulting from failure to follow the instructions in this
manual.
Follow all road signs and traffic rules
When driving using guidance from the navigation system,
be sure to follow the actual road signs and traffic
regulations. If road signs and traffic regulations are
changed, the data on the SD card may be out of date. Also,
the data on the map SD card does not take into account
factors such as weather, time zones, and occurrences such as
differences in congestion situations and temporary road
closures due to construction work. Always give precedence
to road signs and traffic rules over instructions from the
navigation system.
Not following the road signs and traffic rules could lead to
injury or traffic violations.
Drive safely
• Before following instructions from the navigation system
(changing lanes and so on), ch eck that you can carry out the
maneuver safely given the current traffic conditions. Always
put safety first before following any instructions.
• Do not watch the navigation screen while driving.
Ignoring surrounding traffic could lead to an accident. If you
need to look at the screen whil e driving, make sure you only
glance at the screen.
• You should stop the vehicle in a safe place before operating
the navigation system. For safety's sake, some of the
navigation system's buttons and functions cannot be used
unless the vehicle is stationary.
• When you need to look at the navigation screen, do so for
the shortest time possible. Looking away from the road for
too long could lead to an accident.
• Make sure this system is installed in a position legally
allowed in the country where you intend to use it. Some
countries and regions do not allow video screens to be
installed within the driver's line of sight.

Information on Warnings and Safety
The navigation system uses a built-in GPS receiver to guide
you to your destination. This software does not transmit the
GPS position of your vehicle, and cannot be used to track the
vehicle.
Do not look at the navigation screen if it is not safe to do so. If
the driver is operating the navigation system, we strongly
recommend operating the software before you start driving.
Program the route before leaving, and stop your vehicle in a
safe place if you need to change the route.
Follow all road signs and road conditions. If you deviate from
the recommended route while driving, the software updates
the route according to your current position.
For details, see “End-user License Agreement” on Page 176.

Reference Data
Real-time traffic information (TMC)
TMC ( Traffic Message Channel) offers real-time traffic conditions. This
can help you to avoid traffic jams th at could not be anticipated due to
road closures or accidents.
TMC uses a dedicated FM Radio Data System (RDS) to broadcast real-
time traffic and weather reports.
The default settings use traffic information when searching for a route.
The TMC receiver necessary to receive traffic condition reports is built-in
to some products, but not for others. Contact your nearest SUBARU
dealer.
If traffic data normally broadcast in your region can be accessed, this
received information is automatically taken into account. This does not
need to be manually set. FM radio stations broadcasting TMC data are
searched for automatically, and de coded information is immediately
used to search for routes. If traffi c information that might affect the
current route is received, a warning is displayed indicating that the
route will be searched for again, an d navigation continues using a new,
optimal route taking into account the latest traffic conditions.
By delaying the timing before applying a route that has been searched
again, the user can check the route and fine-tune the details creating
the optimal search results. You can se t this from Traffic settings. (See
Page 168.) When traffic information is being received, a special icon ( ) is
displayed on the map. When there is no traffic information available for
the route, this icon indicates the status of the traffic information
receiver, and when information is rece
ived, the type of upcoming traffic
information is displayed.
Road sections affected by traffic co nditions are displayed in a different
color on the map, and a small icon representing the type of traffic
condition is displayed above the road.
Touch to display the Traffic Summary screen.
