To receive satellite radio, it is necessary to
install the SUBARU genuine satellite
receiver for some models, and to enter
into a contract with a satellite radio
network service such as
“Sirius XM
TM
satellite radio ”(for U.S.A. only). For de-
tails, please contact your SUBARU dealer. & Sirius XM
TMSatellite Radio
Activation (for U.S.A. only)
Models with Sirius XM
TMare eligible for a
3-month complimentary subscription to
the Sirius XM
TMSatellite Radio service.
! Activation process
If you would like to activate your Satellite
Radio online, please visit
http://www.sir-iusxm.com/activationhelp and follow the
step-by-step instructions for easy activa- tion. & Satellite radio reception
Satellite 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. !
Sirius XM
TMsatellite radio reception
tips (for U.S.A. only —if equipped)
The Sirius XM
TMsatellite radio receiver
that is fitted to your vehicle receives the
necessary signals from two specially
designated satellites that are in a geosta-
tionary 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 cover-
age within urban areas such as cities.
You may experience problems in receiving
Sirius XM
TMsatellite radio signals in the
following situations. Audio

5-20Audio
.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 bymountains
. 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 SiriusXM
TMsatellite radio signals. &
Displaying satellite radio ID
of tuner
When 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.
For details, contact your SUBARU dealer. & Band selection
