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.

Sirius XM

Satellite Radio

Activation (for U.S.A. only)

Models with Sirius XM

are eligible for a

3-month complimentary subscription to
the Sirius XM

Satellite 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.

Sirius satellite radio (for
Canada only)

Sirius 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.ca or call 1-888-539-7474 for
more information. Sirius, the Sirius dog
logo, channel names and logos are trade-
marks of SIRIUS Satellite Radio Inc.

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

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 Sirius XM

satellite 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

Audio/Satellite radio operation

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

satellite radio signals in the

following 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

satellite 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.
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.

For Sirius, change the display to an
indication mode other than the channel

Audio/Precautions to observe when handling a compact disc

in the center console. A stereo mini pin
plug (3.5ø) can be inserted in this jack.
The connection cable is available at
electrical appliance or similar stores.

To use the AUX input jack:
1. Connect a portable audio player to the
AUX input jack.

Type A audio

Type B audio

2. Press the AUX input selection button
“CD/AUX” on the audio control panel to
turn on the auxiliary audio input.
3. Play back the portable audio player.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual of the
portable audio player.

NOTE

. The AUX jacks of the models with
the genuine SUBARU navigation sys-
tem are the RCA type. For detailed
information, refer to the Owner’s Man-
ual supplement for the navigation sys-
tem.
. The output sound of the portable
audio player is not loud, and the sound
via the vehicle’s speakers that are

connected to the vehicle audio set
may be very low. If you turn up the
volume of the audio set, the volume
becomes louder. However, when you
change from one portable audio player
to another one, the volume levels via
the vehicle’s speakers may be signifi-
cantly louder compared to the prior
device. To avoid a large volume differ-
ence, turn down the volume when you
change between portable audio
players.
. In some cases, when the sound
volume of the portable audio player is
low, sound quality may become im-
paired when you turn up the volume of
the vehicle audio system. In this case,
adjust the sound volume of the porta-
ble audio player.
. In some cases, noise occurs be-
cause of a bad connection between the
portable player and the audio system.
Try cleaning the stereo jack and audio
plug.
. If the noise is not reduced, check for
disconnection of the cord or a malfunc-
tion of the portable player.

Precautions to observe when
handling a compact disc

Use only compact discs (CDs, CD-Rs and
CD-RWs) that have the mark shown in the
following. Also, some compact discs
cannot be played.

. You cannot use a DualDisc in the CD
player. If you insert a DualDisc into the
player, the disc may not come out again,
possibly causing the player to malfunction.
. In cold and/or rainy weather, dew can
form inside the CD player, preventing
normal operation. If this happens, eject
the CD and wait for the player to dry out.
. Skipping may occur when the CD
player is subjected to severe vibration
(for example, when the vehicle is driven
on a rough surface).
. To remove a disc from the case, press
the center of the case and hold both
edges of the disc. If the disc surface is
touched directly, contamination could
cause poor tone quality. Do not touch the
disc surface.
. Use a clean disc whenever possible. If

there are deposits, wipe the disc surface
from the center outward with a dry, soft
cloth. Be sure not to use a hard cloth,
thinner, benzine, alcohol, etc.
. Do not use any disc that is scratched,
deformed, or cracked. Also, do not use
any disc that has a non-standard shape
(for example, a heart shape). Malfunctions
or problems might result.
. A disc is vulnerable to heat. Never
keep it either in places exposed to direct
sunlight, near heaters or in vehicles
parked in the sun or on hot days.
. Insert discs one by one into the CD
player (type A audio).
