DRIVING THE VEHICLE
5-Speed Manual Transmission
The manual transmission is a fully synchronised 5-forward and 1-reverse speed
transmission. To shift into reverse gear from 5th gear, you must first return the shift lever
into the neutral position, then shift into reverse gear.
Automatic Transmission Shift Mode
The Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT)
is electronically controlled and provides two
different driving mode combinations: normal
and manual or normal and low.
Normal Mode
When the select lever is in the “D” (Drive)
position, the transmission is in normal shift
mode. The select lever position indicator in the
Combination Meter Display (CMD) shows “D”
and the transmission automatically shifts into a
suitable forward gear.
Low Mode(if equipped)
Low Mode is for using engine braking when
going downhill, etc. Moving the select lever left
into the “L” position from the “D” (Drive)
position causes the transmission to change into Low Mode. The shift position indicator
shows “L” as the selected gear.
Manual Mode (if equipped)
In manual mode, you select the desired gear position to obtain necessary acceleration and
engine braking. Move the select lever left from the “D” position into the “M” position to
select manual mode. The gear position indicator in the Combination Meter Display (CMD)
shows the currently selected gear. Arrow-shaped indicators show when upshifting or
downshifting is available. To shift, use the paddle shift control switches behind the steering
wheel.

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; however, you do not need to speak directly into it to
activate the voice command features. Press the Voice Recognition
button on the steering wheel to start the voice recognition system.
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
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.
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.
