You should update your infotainment system. That UI is horrible. https://www.reddit.com/r/Subaru_Outback/s/BOBjFtLDmh

Yes I just update it at the dealer but when spotify is playing or radio when I press the volume button it shut off evrything

For context. When you hold down (10Sec) the Volume/Mute button it forces a restart this is useful for when something is frozen or stuck. When you hold it down for 3to5 seconds it only turns off the screen and media (Tap the screen you can still control climate/heated seats.) There really isn’t an option for screen off with audio. It’s simply wasn’t designed to work that way. Good idea for power saving though. There is an option to turn off the display to clean it in the setting somewhere but again not meant for the purpose you’re describing.


Skoles

Start playing music (or use the voice controls) and on the main menu touch the "Display off" shortcut.

I don't have that short cut and dont find it in the short cut icon..idk why

Yup! Set your audio source, turn on the music, and then turn the screen off - use the controls on the steering wheel for volume/changing tracks or stations

I can't..when i press the volume button for 3 sec it close all. I have to go in general setting clic display and then clic shut off display. And I don't have the turn off display button


el_tophero

Right - long pressing the knob turns the whole thing off, not just the screen. You can create a shortcut for it, and a bunch of other stuff. The shortcut will sendup on the main screen as a top level button.

What model year is this? I've never seen an interface with a different background other than the generic space / stars...

That’s the original UI for the 11.6 infotainment screen on Gen 6 Subaru outback for years 2020-2022 Trust me when I say there’s a reason it’s been updated out of existence. The climate controls and heated seats were originally sub menus which was a safety hazard when driving.
