Satellite radio operation (if equipped) 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 XMTM satellite radio" (for U.S.A. only). For details, please contact your SUBARU dealer. stances that may result in signal loss include driving near a wall, steep cliff, hill or driving on the lower level of a multitiered road or inside of a parking garage. To help reduce this condition, satellite radio providers have installed groundbased repeaters in heavily populated areas. However, you may still experience reception problems in some areas. ! Sirius XMTM satellite radio reception tips (for U.S.A. only - if equipped) The Sirius XMTM satellite radio receiver that is fitted to your vehicle receives the necessary signals from two specially designated satellites that are in a geostationary 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 coverage within urban areas such as cities. You may experience problems in receiving Sirius XMTM satellite radio signals in the following situations. - CONTINUED - & Sirius XMTM Satellite Radio Activation (for U.S.A. only) Models with Sirius XMTM are eligible for a 3-month complimentary subscription to the Sirius XMTM Satellite Radio service. !
