■ Hints for quick address entry • When entering a city/town name or a street name:
- Only characters that can be displayed in the search results are shown on the
keyboard. Other characters are grayed out.
- While entering text, the most likely search result is always displayed in the
text entry field. If the search result is correct, touch
to select it.
- If you touch
Results
(Results) after entering two characters, items that
contain those two characters are displayed in the list.
• You can find intersections easily by using the following method.
- First, when searching for an uncommon road name, you only need to enter
the first few letters to acquire the name.
- When one street name is shorter than the other, the shorter one is searched
for first. This shortens the search time for the road with the longer name. • You can search by road category as well as road name. When the
same word is included in names such as the street, road, and main street, by entering the first character for the type of road, you can quickly bring up the search results. For example, if you are searching for “Pine Avenue” and you enter “Pi A”, roads such as “Pine Street” or “Pickwick Road” are not displayed.
• You can also search by using the ZIP Code. If the ZIP Code only
contains a few characters, you can search more quickly than when entering the city/town name.

You can select your destination from the favorite spots that have already been saved in the software. You can use the same screen to find a spot using the following various methods. • Using the quick search function, you can quickly search for spots

Reference Data
The following pages explain the software's various features and menu screens.
Feature Smart Zoom
Smart zoom offers a large improvement over standard zoom functions. • While driving the route: When approaching an intersection, the screen is enlarged and the viewpoint raised so that you can easily see which way to drive at the next intersection. After navigating the intersection, the screen is reduced and the angle lowered to check the road in front.
• When driving without route navigation: The screen is enlarged as
you slow down and reduced as you speed up.
Switching between Day and Night Screens
For the Map screen and menu screen, the colors differ between day and night. • During daytime, the screen's colors are the same as those of a
printed map, and the menu is brighter.
• At night, the screen uses dark colors for large objects and reduces
the overall brightness of the screen.
The screen's color scheme differs between day and night. Using the current time and GPS position, you can also switch automatically between day and night screen settings just before sunrise (at dawn) and just after sunset (at dusk).

Reference Data Online Road Information Saved in Route Search
This unit can provide you with even better routes, if real-time traffic information (TMC: Traffic Message Channel) is available. If public traffic data is broadcast at your location, this unit automatically takes into account the traffic data received. You do not need to set anything in the program. The decoded information will immediately be used in route planning. The moment unit receives traffic information that may affect your route, the program recalculates the route, and this unit will continue with a new route that is optimal based on the most up-to-date traffic conditions.
GPS Positioning Quality Indicator

Explanation The software is not connected to the GPS receiver. Cannot perform GPS navigation. Products with a built-in GPS receiver are always connected. This icon is not normally displayed for those products. Although the software is connected to the GPS receiver, the signal is too weak to measure the GPS. Cannot perform GPS navigation. Only a few satellites are transmitting. Positional information is available, but altitude (elevation above sea level) cannot be calculated. GPS navigation is possible, but large positional errors may occur. Elevation above sea level is available, and measurements can be performed in 3D. GPS navigation is available.

Reference Data
Real-time traffic information (TMC) TMC (Traffic Message Channel) offers real-time traffic conditions. This can help you to avoid traffic jams that could not be anticipated due to road closures or accidents. TMC uses a dedicated FM Radio Data System (RDS) to broadcast real- time traffic and weather reports. The default settings use traffic information when searching for a route. The TMC receiver necessary to receive traffic condition reports is built-in to some products, but not for others. Contact your nearest SUBARU dealer. If traffic data normally broadcast in your region can be accessed, this received information is automatically taken into account. This does not need to be manually set. FM radio stations broadcasting TMC data are searched for automatically, and decoded information is immediately used to search for routes. If traffic information that might affect the current route is received, a warning is displayed indicating that the route will be searched for again, and navigation continues using a new, optimal route taking into account the latest traffic conditions. By delaying the timing before applying a route that has been searched again, the user can check the route and fine-tune the details creating the optimal search results. You can set this from Traffic settings. (See Page 168.)
