Satellite radio operation (if
equipped)To receive satellite radio, it is necessary to
install the SUBARU genuine satellite
receiver (optional equipment) and to enter
into a contract. For details, please contact
your SUBARU dealer.& XM
TM
satellite radio (U.S.A.
only)
XM
TM
is a continental U.S. based satellite
radio service, which includes music, news,
sports, talk and children ’s programming.
XM
TM
provides digital quality audio and
text information, including song title and
artist name. A service fee is required to
receive the XM
TM
service. For more
information, contact XMTM

RADIO (1-800-967-2346).& Sirius satellite radioSirius satellite radio is a recent innovation
that allows the listener to experience
digital sound quality and to have a greater
variety of channels.
Use of satellite radio (Sirius) requires a
tuner, antenna and a service contract. For
details, please contact your SUBARU
dealer or visit Sirius Satellite Radio at
www.sirius.com or call 1-888-539-SIRIUS
(7474) for more information. Sirius, the

Inc.&Satellite radio receptionSatellite radio signals are best received in
areas with a clear view of the open sky. In
areas where there are tall buildings, trees,
tunnels or other structures that may
obstruct the signal of the satellites, there
may be signal interruptions. Other circum-
stances that may result in signal loss
include driving near a wall, steep cliff, hill
or driving on the lower level of a multi-
tiered road or inside of a parking garage.
To help reduce this condition, satellite
radio providers have installed ground-
based repeaters in heavily populated
areas. However, you may still experience
reception problems in some areas. !

satellite radio reception tips
for antenna on the windshield (for
U.S.A. only —if equipped)
For some models, the satellite radio
antenna is fixed to the upper right hand
corner of the windshield.
The XM
TM
satellite radio receiver that is
fitted to your vehicle receives the neces-
sary signals from two specially designated
satellites that are in a geostationary orbit
over the equator. One satellite covers the
east coast and the other covers the west
coast. Both of them direct their signals
north. These signals are then relayed
throughout the radio reception area by a
network of ground repeater stations. The
satellite radio signals are transmitted as
“line of sight ”signals. The line of sight

signals can be blocked by objects such as
buildings, but the network of repeater
stations allows signal coverage within
urban areas such as cities.
You may experience problems in receiving
XM
TM
satellite radio signals in the follow-
ing situations.
. If you are driving northward in a coastal
area
Because the satellite radio antenna is
located on the windshield, the signal
comes from the south and may not be
able to reach the antenna in some
circumstances when you are driving north.
. If you are driving in a tunnel or a
covered parking area
. If you are driving beneath the top level
of a multi-level freeway .
If you drive under a bridge
. If you are driving next to a tall vehicle
(such as a truck or a bus) that blocks the
signal
. If you are driving in a valley where the
surrounding hills or peaks block the signal
from the south
. If you are driving on a mountain road
where the southern direction is blocked by
mountains
. If you are driving in an area with tall
trees that block the signal (10 m or more),
for example on a road that goes through a
dense forest
. The signal can become weak in some
areas that are not covered by the repeater
station network.
Please note that these may be other unforeseen circumstances when there
are problems with the reception of XM
TM
satellite radio signals.&
Displaying satellite radio ID
of tunerWhen you activate satellite radio, you
should have your satellite radio tuner ID
ready because each tuner is identified by
its unique satellite radio tuner ID.
The satellite radio ID will be needed when
you activate satellite radio and receive
satellite radio customer support.
The satellite radio ID can be found on the
audio display by tuning the channel to “0”.
Turn the “TUNE/TRACK/CH ”dial to select
the satellite radio channel.NOTEFor Sirius, change the display to an
indication mode other than the channel
