About the Map SD Card
When driving using guidance from the navigation system, be sure to follow
the actual road signs and trafc regulations. If road signs and trafc regulations
are changed, the data on the map SD card may be out of date. Also, the
data on the map SD card does not take into account factors such as weather,
time zones, and occurrences such as differences in congestion situations
and temporary road closures due to construction work. Always give precedence
to road signs and trafc rules over instructions from the navigation system.
Not following the road signs and trafc rules could lead to injury or
trafc violations.
All information contained within this Navigation System Quick Reference Guide was
accurate at the time of publication. We reserve the right to change features, operation and/
or functionality of any vehicle specication at any time without incurring any obligation to
make the same or similar changes to products previously sold. Your Subaru dealer is the
best source for the most current information. For detailed operating and safety information,
please consult your Owner’s Manual.

Introduction
Safety
Your Navigation System will assist you in reaching your destination and, if
used properly, can do so with speed and ease. To use the system as safely
as possible, follow all safety directions.
• Before attempting to use this system while driving, learn how to use it.
Make sure you read the entire Navigation System Owner’s Manual Supplement.
Do not allow others to use this system until they read the manual and understand
the instructions.
• You should program your destination and select your route only when your vehicle
is not moving. While driving, listen to the voice instructions as much as possible
and only glance at the screen briey and when it is safe to do so.
• The data in the system may occasionally be incomplete as road conditions and
driving restrictions (no left turns, road closures, etc.) change. Before you follow
system instructions, make sure to check whether you can comply with the
instructions legally and safely. Do not be distracted by the navigation screen.
Failure to keep your attention on the road could lead to an accident.
• The system cannot warn you of environmental or street hazards or the availability
of emergency systems. If you are unsure about the safety of an area, don’t drive
into it.
• Use this system only where it is legal to do so. Some states may have laws
prohibiting the use of video screens within the driver’s sight.
And remember, this system is never a substitute for the driver’s personal judgment.
To start the Navigation System, start the engine. The opening screen will
appear, followed by the CAUTION screen. Read the instructions on the
screen, if not previously selected, touch
LANGUAGES
to select a language.
Then touch
I AGREE
when illuminated.
