Subaru Forester: Anti-entrapment function
When the moonroof senses a substantial enough object trapped between its glass and the vehicle’s roof during closure, it automatically moves back by 6 in (15 cm) from that point and then stops. The antientrapment function may also be activated by a strong shock on the moonroof even when there is nothing trapped.
Never attempt to test this function using fingers, hands or other parts of your body.
NOTE
- For the sake of safety, it is recommended
that you avoid driving with the
moonroof fully opened.
- Driving with the moonroof fully open can cause an annoying sound to generate at high speeds. If such a condition has been encountered, use the moonroof at the initial stop position of 20 in (50 cm) away from the fully closed position.
- If the moonroof cannot be closed through switch operation because of system failure, it can be closed manually using a hex-head wrench. For the procedure, refer to “Moonroof – if the moonroof cannot be closed”.
