Introduction
Safety instructions
To use this system in the safest possible manner, follow all the safety tips shown below. This system is intended to assist in reaching the destination and, if used properly, can do so. The driver is solely responsible for the safe operation of the vehicle and the safety of your passengers. Do not use any feature of this system to the extent it becomes a distraction and prevents safe driving. The first priority while driving should always be the safe operation of the vehicle. While driving, be sure to observe all traffic regulations. If a traffic sign on the road has been changed, route guidance may not have the updated information such as the direction of a one way street. While driving, listen to the voice instructions as much as possible and glance at the screen briefly and only when it is safe. However, do not totally rely on voice guidance. Use it just for reference. If the system cannot determine the current position correctly, there is a possibility of incorrect or delayed guidance, or no voice guidance at all. The data in the system may occasionally be incomplete. Road conditions, including driving restrictions (no left turns, street closures, etc.) frequently change. Therefore, before following any instructions from the system, look to see whether the instruction can be done safely and legally. This system cannot warn about such things as the safety of an area, condition of streets, and availability of emergency services.If unsure about the safety of an area, do not drive into it. Under no circumstances is this system a substitute for the driver's personal judgement.
WARNING
For safety, the driver should not operate the system while he/she is driving. Insufficient attention to the road and traffic may cause an accident.
While driving, be sure to obey the traffic regulations and maintain awareness of the road conditions.

You can drive the vehicle in guest mode if you do not want to use a user profile.
User Profiles Some multimedia and vehicle settings for each driver can be saved and the applicable driver can load them before driving the vehicle. Up to three user profiles can be saved. When you save a profile it will load on every drive until you sign
out. · Example of multimedia settings include Volume, Audio, Navigation,

Precautions when using Bluetooth® devices Pay special attention to the following information when using a Bluetooth® device on the multimedia system.
INFORMATION
The vehicle uses Bluetooth® communications on the 2.4GHz frequency band. Performance may vary depending on various factors.
Simultaneous use of Wi-Fi® using the same 2.4GHz band wireless communication as Bluetooth® could cause mutual interference.
Mutual interference between Bluetooth® and Wi-Fi® could cause issues such as garbled video, audio skipping, or reduced communication speed. The effect of interference will be reduced if a Bluetooth® device is connected. If a Bluetooth® device has been registered, connecting with the registered device could improve this issue. (Check the status icons to determine whether a Bluetooth® device is connected)
Using a Bluetooth® cellular phone simultaneously with a wireless device could negatively affect communication for each.
The simultaneous use of a Wi-Fi® function (Wi-Fi®, Wi-Fi® Hotspot) and Bluetooth® device that use the same 2.4GHz band for wireless communication could negatively affect communication for each. Turning off the Wi-Fi® function will allow for use without issue.
Connecting a Bluetooth® device via Bluetooth® will cause the battery of the cellular phone to deplete rapidly.
Bluetooth® connections will be disconnected during emergency calls. Any disconnected Bluetooth® devices will be reconnected once the emergency call is finished.
WARNING
For safety, the driver should not operate the cellular phone itself while driving when using hands-free calling.
Stop the vehicle in a safe location prior to calling. If a call is received while driving, be sure to drive safely and keep the call short.
96
Connecting a smartphone or communication device
3-1. Using the Bluetooth® function
NOTICE
Do not use a Bluetooth® device near the multimedia system. Coming too close could worsen sound quality or the connection.
Do not leave a cellular phone inside the vehicle. The inside of the
vehicle can become hot, which could cause the cellular phone to mal-
function.
3
Users with pacemakers or other electrical medical devices
Observe the following precautions with regard to radio waves during Bluetooth® communication.
WARNING
The vehicle antenna for Bluetooth® communication is built into the multimedia system.
People with implantable cardiac pacemakers, cardiac resynchronization therapy-pacemakers or implantable cardioverter defibrillators should maintain a reasonable distance between themselves and the Bluetooth® antennas. The radio waves may affect the operation of such devices.
Before using Bluetooth® devices, users of any electrical medical device other than implantable cardiac pacemakers, cardiac resynchronization therapy-pacemakers or implantable cardioverter defibrillators should consult the manufacturer of the device for information about its operation under the influence of radio waves. Radio waves could have unexpected effects on the operation of such medical devices.
When used simultaneously with Bluetooth® audio
The following behaviors will occur if a Bluetooth®-compatible device (cellular phone) is used hands-free and simultaneously with Bluetooth® audio.
· The Bluetooth® connection of the cellular phone may be disconnected.
· There is possibility that background noise may exist during a handsfree phone call.
· Hands-free call operation may lag.
Audio may skip if the communication device selected for handsfree calling is changed during Bluetooth® audio playback.
97
3-1. Using the Bluetooth® function The portable device connection may be disconnected when trans-
ferring contact data. It will be reconnected once transfer is complete. (Reconnection may not be possible for some models) It may not be possible to make both a hands-free connection and audio connection, even for cellular phones that support both hands-free connections and audio connections. For a list of specific devices which operation has been confirmed on this system, check with your SUBARU dealer or the following website: SUBARU of America: https://www.subaru.com/solterra-connect SUBARU Canada English: http://www.subaru.ca/SolterraConnect SUBARU Canada French: http://www.subaru.ca/ SolterraConnectFR

Registering a Bluetooth® device from the multimedia
system
A cellular phone or portable device must be registered in order to use hands-free calling or Bluetooth® audio. Once registration is complete, Bluetooth® will automatically be connected each time the multimedia system is started. It's registered automatically as Bluetooth® device when Apple CarPlay/Android Auto is connected by USB. If no Bluetooth® device is connected, the registration screen can also be displayed by pressing and holding the [ ] switch on the steering wheel.
INFORMATION
A cellular phone can be registered as both a hands-free phone and Bluetooth® audio device.
Up to 5 Bluetooth® devices can be registered. However, a maximum of 2 devices can be used as a hands-free phone. (Setting of a driver is required to connect 2 hands-free phones.)
Refer to the Bluetooth® device's instruction manual for information on how to operate the Bluetooth® device.
Registration will need to be repeated once for each Bluetooth® device if multiple Bluetooth® devices will be used.
A PIN code is a verification code used when registering a Bluetooth® device to the multimedia system.
Dialing may be locked out after connecting, depending on the cellular phone settings. Cancel the auto lock function on the cellular phone before use.
If another device is registered while connected to a cellular phone or portable device, the connection to the portable device or cellular phone playing audio will be disconnected.
For safety reasons, devices cannot be registered while driving. If Bluetooth® device registration cannot be completed, restart the Blue-
tooth® device.

In particular, be careful not to collide with vehicles parked nearby or other objects. Always make sure to use the rear-view and side mirrors as well as visually check behind you and your surroundings when reversing.
Depress the brake pedal to adjust your speed and slowly reverse the vehicle.
If collision is likely with a nearby vehicle, obstacle, or person, or mount the shoulder of the road, depress the brake pedal to stop the vehicle.

Cleaning the camera
If dirt or foreign matter, such as water droplets, snow, or mud, has stuck to the camera, you will not be able to see the image clearly. If that happens, splash the camera with a large amount of water and then wipe the camera lens clean with a soft, damp cloth.
NOTICE
The SUBARU Parking Assist monitor may stop functioning correctly. Take note of the following items: · Do not hit or apply a forceful impact on the camera. Doing so may change the position and mounting angle of the camera. · The camera is designed to be waterproof. Do not detach, disassemble, or modify it. · When washing the camera lens, splash the camera with a large amount of water and then wipe the camera lens clean with a soft, damp cloth. Rubbing the camera lens forcibly may scratch the camera lens and images may no longer be able to be seen clearly. · The camera cover is made of resin. Do not allow an organic solvent, car wax, window cleaner, or glass coating to adhere to the camera. If this happens, wipe it off immediately. · Do not pour hot water on the vehicle in cold weather or apply other rapid changes of temperature. · If you wash the vehicle with a high pressure car washer, do not point the hose directly at the camera or camera area. Applying strong water pressure may result in the camera malfunctioning.
If the camera is hit, it may cause a camera malfunction. If this happens, have the vehicle inspected by your SUBARU dealer as soon as possible.

Differences between the screen and the actual road
The distance guide lines and the vehicle width guide lines may not actually be parallel with the dividing lines of the parking space, even when they appear to be so. Be sure to check visually.
The distances between the vehicle width guide lines and the left and right dividing lines of the parking space may not be equal, even when they appear to be so. Be sure to check visually.
The distance guide lines show a distance guide for flat road surfaces. Therefore, there is a margin of error between the guide lines on the screen and the actual distance and course on the road.
When the ground behind the vehicle slopes up sharply
The distance guide lines will ap-
pear to be closer to the vehicle
than the actual distance. Thus,
objects on up-slopes will appear
to be farther away than they ac-
tually are. In the same way, there
will be a margin of error between

· There is an obstacle in front of the camera · The tires were replaced · The back door is open and the camera is not in the correct position · The road surface is slippery or the wheels slip · The vehicle is on a hill or other steep roads As vision that was captured in the past is being displayed, the screen and the actual situation may differ in the following cases: · An obstacle appears or moves after vision is captured · Sand or snow crumbles and moves after vision is captured · Mud or puddles are in the display range · When the vehicle slips Part or all of the transparent underfloor vision may appear black in the following cases: · The vehicle starts moving with no captured vision · The steering wheel is turned more than a certain angle · The vehicle stops and a certain amount of time passes
WARNING
The tire and vehicle guide lines may not align correctly with the actual vehicle position due to the number of passengers, vehicle load, road gradient, road surface conditions, brightness of the surroundings, optional equipment, tire replacements, and other reasons. Always make sure to check your surroundings while you are driving.
Displayed vision is vision that was captured in the past. Therefore, if obstacles and other objects move after being captured, the transparent underfloor vision and the actual situation may not always match.

Precautions for the panoramic view monitor
Always make sure to visually check behind you and your surroundings while driving. If not, collision with other vehicles or an unforeseen accident may occur. Follow the below precautions when using the panoramic view monitor.
WARNING
Never depend on the panoramic view monitor entirely. Always make sure to visually check behind you and your surroundings as you would when driving any other vehicle. In particular, be careful not to collide with vehicles parked nearby or other objects.
Always make sure to visually check behind you and your surroundings while you are driving.
Never drive while looking only at the screen. The image on the screen may be different to the actual conditions. Moreover, there is a limit to the range of image that the camera can capture. Never turn or reverse only looking at the screen. Doing so may result in a collision with another vehicle or some other unforeseen accident. Be sure to visually check the vehicle's surroundings and use the vehicle's rear-view and side mirrors.
The position of the guide lines displayed on the screen may change due to factors such as number of passengers, load weight, and road
8
gradient. Always make sure to visually check behind you and your
surroundings while you are driving.
Do not use the panoramic view monitor in the following cases:
· On icy or slick road surfaces, or in snow
· When using tire chains or emergency tires
· When the front door(s) or back door are not closed completely
· On roads that are not flat, such as hills
· If the tires of a size other than specified by SUBARU are installed
· If the suspension has been modified
· If a non-SUBARU product is installed on the area displayed on the screen
In low external temperatures, the screen may darken or the image may become faint. The image could distort when the vehicle is moving, or you may not be able to see the image on the screen, so always visually check your surroundings while you are driving.

WARNING
If you replace your tires, the position of the guide lines displayed on the screen may be incorrect.
NOTICE
See-through view, moving view, panoramic view, side clearance view, and cornering view produce an image that is a composite of images captured by the front camera, rear camera, and side cameras. As there is a limit to the displayable range and content, make sure you fully understand the features of the panoramic view monitor before you use it.
The four corners of the see-through view, moving view, panoramic view, side clearance view, and cornering view have a video composition processing region centered on borders of the cameras, and image clarity may decline. However this is not a fault.
Depending on lighting conditions near each camera, bright and dark patches may appear on the see-through view, moving view, panoramic view, side clearance view, and cornering view.
See-through view, moving view, panoramic view, side clearance view, and cornering view does not extend higher than the installation position and image capture range of each camera.
There are blind spots around the vehicle and as such there are regions not displayed on the panoramic view monitor.
Three-dimensional objects displayed in wide front view, rear view, wide rear view or side view may not be displayed in see-through view, moving view, panoramic view, side clearance view, and cornering view.
People and other three-dimensional obstacles may appear differently when displayed on the panoramic view monitor. (These differences include cases in which displayed objects appear to have fallen over, disappear near image processing regions, appear from video composition processing areas, or when the actual distance to an object differs from the displayed position.)
When the back door, which is equipped with the rear camera, or front doors, which are equipped with side mirrors that have the built-in side cameras, are open, images will not be displayed properly on the panoramic view monitor.
The vehicle icon displayed in see-through view, moving view, panoramic view, side clearance view, and cornering view is a computer generated image, so the color, shape and size will differ from the actual

vehicle. Therefore, nearby three-dimensional objects may appear to be touching the vehicle, and actual distances to three-dimensional objects may differ from those displayed. The camera may not function correctly and the image may be displayed on the screen in the following manner: · When the shift position is in "R", part or all of the screen may appear
black · When the shift position is in "R", the screen may not change to the
camera image · When a shift position other than "R" is selected, the image from the
camera may remain displayed · The guide lines are not displayed on the camera image, and atten-
tion symbols and caution notices are displayed
Area displayed on the screen
There are blind spots around the vehicle and as such there are regions not displayed on the screen. Even if nothing around the vehicle is displayed on the screen, there may actually be obstacles on the road, which you may collide with. Always make sure to visually 8 check your surroundings.

further away than it actually is or may not appear at all. · Tall objects may appear protruding from the non-displayed areas of
the image. Variations in the brightness of the image may appear for every camera
due to lighting conditions. The displayed image may be misaligned due to inclination of the vehi-
cle body or change in vehicle height caused by the number of passengers, and vehicle load. If the doors are not completely closed, the image and the guide lines may not be displayed correctly.

Cleaning the camera If dirt or foreign matter, such as water droplets, snow, or mud, has stuck to the camera, you will not be able to see the image clearly. If that happens, splash the camera with a large amount of water and then wipe the camera lens clean with a soft, damp cloth.
NOTICE The panoramic view monitor may stop functioning correctly. Take note
of the following items: · Do not hit or apply a forceful impact on the camera. Doing so may
change the position and mounting angle of the camera.
285
8-2. Panoramic view monitor
NOTICE
· The camera is designed to be waterproof. Do not detach, disassemble, or modify it.
· When washing the camera lens, splash the camera with a large amount of water and then wipe the camera lens clean with a soft, damp cloth. Rubbing the camera lens forcibly may scratch the camera lens and you may no longer be able to see images clearly.
· The camera cover is made of resin. Do not allow an organic solvent, car wax, window cleaner, or glass coating to adhere to the camera. If this happens, wipe it off immediately.
· Do not pour hot water on the vehicle in cold weather or apply other rapid changes of temperature.
· If you wash the vehicle with a high pressure car washer, do not point the hose directly at the camera or camera area. Applying strong water pressure may result in the camera malfunctioning.
If the camera is hit, it may cause a camera malfunction. If this happens, have the vehicle inspected by your SUBARU dealer as soon as possible.
Parking assist lights
The parking assist lights of the panoramic view monitor system are installed in the locations shown in the figure.
NOTICE
Make sure to observe the following precautions, otherwise the panoramic view monitor system may not operate correctly: · Do not apply excessive force to a light or subject it to a strong impact. Doing so may cause the position or installation angle of the light to deviate. · Do not remove, disassemble, or modify the lights as they have a waterproof construction.
286
8-2. Panoramic view monitor
NOTICE
· When cleaning the lights, wash them with a large amount of water, and then wipe them with a soft wet cloth.
· Do not apply organic solvents, waxes, oil removing solvents, glass coatings, etc. to the covers of the lights, as they are made of resin. If such is applied, remove it immediately.
· Do not expose the lights to sudden temperature changes, such as applying hot water to them when it is cold.
· When washing the vehicle with a high-pressure washer, do not spray water directly on the lights or their surrounding area. High-pressure water can damage the lights and cause them to not operate correctly.
If a light has been subjected to a strong impact, it may be damaged. Have the vehicle inspected by your SUBARU dealer as soon as possible.
Differences between the screen and the actual road
The composite images on the panoramic view monitor and guide
lines give a distance guide for flat road surfaces. Therefore, there
is a margin of error between the guide lines on the screen and the
actual distance and course on the road.
8
When the ground behind the vehicle slopes up sharply
The distance guide lines will appear to be closer to the vehicle than the actual distance. Thus, objects on up-slopes will appear to be farther away than they actually are. In the same way, there will be a margin of error between the guidelines and the actual distance and course on the road.
Parking assist system
287
8-2. Panoramic view monitor When the ground behind the vehicle slopes down sharply The distance guide lines will appear to be further from the vehicle than the actual distance. Thus, objects on down-slopes will appear to be closer than they actually are. In the same way, there will be a margin of error between the guidelines and the actual distance and course on the road.
When any part of the vehicle sags When any part of the vehicle sags due to the number of passengers or the distribution of the load, there is a margin of error between the guide lines on the screen and the actual distance and course on the road. A Margin of error Estimated course center line As the guide lines are shown midair near the rear bumper, there are times that they may look like they are off-center.

Differences between the screen and actual 3D objects Since the guide lines and displayed on the screen are displayed for a flat road surface, it is not possible to determine the position of three-dimensional objects. When approaching a three-dimensional object that extends outward (such as the flatbed of a truck), take note of the following cautions.
WARNING When the intuitive parking assist display is red, make sure to visually check before moving the vehicle any further. There is the danger that you may collide with another vehicle or have some other unforeseen accident. Displaying panoramic view (including zoom display) On the screen, it appears that there is a gap between the vehicle's bumper and another object or vehicle, and it does not look as if the vehicle will collide with the object or vehicle. However, the vehicle is over the course lines, so the vehicle may collide with the object or vehicle. Make sure to visually check your surroundings.
