Subaru Outback (BR): 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.

WARNING
Do not use the cruise control on slippery roads such as snowy or icy roads. This
