Subaru Legacy: Windows

WARNING

To avoid serious personal injury caused by entrapment, always conform to the following instructions without exception.

● When operating the power windows, be extremely careful to prevent anyone’s fingers, arms, neck, head or other objects from being caught in the window.
● Always lock the passengers’ windows using the lock switch when children are riding in the vehicle.
● Before leaving the vehicle, always remove the key from the ignition switch for safety and never allow an unattended child to remain in the vehicle. Failure to follow this procedure could result in injury to a child operating the power window.

The power windows operate only when the ignition switch is in the “ON” position.

Operating the driver’s window

1) Automatically open/close

To open:

Press the switch down lightly and hold it. The window will open as long as the switch is held.

This switch also has a one-touch auto down function that allows the window to be opened fully without holding the switch. Press the switch down until it clicks and release it, and the window will fully open. To stop the window halfway, pull the switch up lightly.

To close:

Pull the switch up lightly and hold it. The window will close as long as the switch is held.

For some models, this switch also has a one-touch auto up function that allows the window to be closed fully without holding the switch.

Pull the switch up until it clicks and release it, and the window will fully close. To stop the window halfway, press the switch down lightly.

NOTE

If the vehicle’s battery is disconnected due to situations such as battery or fuse replacement, the one-touch auto up/down function is deactivated. Initialize the power window to reactivate the one-touch auto up/down function. Refer to “Initialization of power window” F2-23.

Anti-entrapment function

CAUTION

● Never attempt to test this function using fingers, hands or other parts of your body.
● The anti-entrapment function may not operate properly if some object gets trapped just before the window fully closes.

NOTE

● If a window detects an impact similar to that caused by trapping an object (for example, when the vehicle encounters a deep pothole), the anti-entrapment function may operate.
● The window cannot be operated for a few seconds after the anti-entrapment function operates.
● If the vehicle’s battery is disconnected due to situations such as battery or fuse replacement, the antientrapment function is deactivated.

Initialize the power window to reactivate the anti-entrapment function. Refer to “Initialization of power window” F2-23.

While closing automatically, if the window senses a substantial enough object trapped between the window and the window frame, it automatically moves down slightly and stops.
