10 Introduction
Before Use
NOTE•Fuji Heavy Industries is not responsible for any damages to the purchaser or 
third parties that occur from using the map data.
•We do not provide any replacements or refunds for any mistakes there may be 
in the map data displays or contents, such as misspelling, omissions or 
misaligned positions.
•Fuji Heavy Industries makes no guarantee that the functions included in the 
map data will be appropriate for the specific objectives of the purchaser.
•Functions that cannot be operated while driving have their colors toned 
down when the vehicle is being driven, and their operation is disabled. 
Touching a disabled switch may result in the display of an operation 
prohibited message on the screen.
•During strong vibrations, such as when driving on a poor road surface, the 
unit may no longer be able to read the data from the disc or “SD memory 
card”, and it will not operate correctly. When the vibration lessens, normal 
operation will return after a short time.
•Immediately after turning on the heater when the temperature is low, dew 
(water drops) may adhere to the lens of the CD reader (condensation). If this 
happens, leaving the unit for about an hour should remove the condensation 
and return the unit to normal operation. If the unit does not return to normal 
operation even after several hours, contact your SUBARU dealer.
•When using the unit for the first time after purchase, or after the battery was 
removed for a long time, the current position may not be displayed correctly. 
Wait a short time until the GPS positioning corrects the displayed position.
•This device is precision-engineered equipment and the recorded data can be 
lost as a result of static electricity, electrical noise, vibration, or other 
influences. To protect the device against data loss, we recommend keeping a 
separate record of the data that you record after purchase.•Note that the following events are not covered by the warranty.
1. Corruption or loss of the data recorded on the “SD memory card” by the 
purchaser resulting from failure, incorrect operation or malfunction of the 
unit, or any problems associated with it, or due to the effects of electrical 
noise or other influences.
2. Corruption or loss of the map data or basic program stored in the “SD 
memory card” resulting from the incorrect use of the unit by the 
purchaser or a third party.
3. Corruption or loss of data recorded on the “SD memory card” by the 
purchaser resulting from the malfunction or repair of the unit.
* Note that by installing or using the unit, you are regarded as having 
consented to the points above.
•The unit has been designed to withstand electrical noise from other 
electronic devices. However, if an electronic device that emits strong noise is 
used next to the unit, the unit may show malfunctions such as screen 
interference or noise. If this happens, stop using the electronic device that 
you think is causing the problem.
•The liquid-crystal display may be difficult to read when wearing polarized 
glasses.

of signboards may affect the reception.
•Auto tuning may not be possible in areas where the received signal is weak.
