seriously injured if any of the follow-
ing conditions occur.
.The vehicle stops suddenly.
.The vehicle turns sharply.
.The vehicle is involved in an
accident.
.Body parts protruding from the
vehicle are struck by outside
objects.
To avoid serious personal injury
caused by entrapment, always con-
form to the following instructions
without exception.
.Before closing the moonroof,
make sure that no one’s hands,
arms, head or other objects will
be accidentally caught in the
moonroof.
.Always carry the key when you
leave the vehicle for safety rea-
sons and never allow an unat-
tended child to remain in thevehicle. Failure to follow this
procedure could result in injury
to a child operating the moon-
roof.
.Never try to check the anti-en-
trapment function by deliberately
placing part of your body in the
moonroof.
CAUTION
.Do not sit on the edge of the open
moonroof.
.Do not operate the moonroof if
falling snow or extremely cold
conditions have caused it to
freeze shut.
.The anti-entrapment function
does not operate when the moon-
roof is being tilted down. Be sure
to confirm that it is safe to do so
before tilting the moonroof down.
.If the moonroof does not close,
we recommend that you have the
system checked by a SUBARU
dealer.
The moonroof has both tilting and sliding
functions.
The moonroof operates only when theignition switch is in the“ON”position.

Keys and doors/Moonroof
–CONTINUED–2-39

Keys and doors/Moonroof
Release the switch after the moonroof has
been raised or has been lowered com-
pletely. Pressing the switch continuously
may cause damage to the moonroof.
!Sliding moonroof
1) Open
2) Close
To open:
Press and hold the rear side of the
“OPEN/CLOSE”switch. The sun shade
will also be opened together with the
moonroof. The moonroof will stop at a
position approximately 1.6 in (4 cm) away
from the fully opened position. Press and
hold the rear side of the switch again to
open the moonroof completely.To close:
Press and hold the front side of the
“OPEN/CLOSE”switch.
To stop the moonroof at a selected mid-
way position while opening or closing it,
momentarily push the switch to the
“OPEN”side or“CLOSE”side.
After washing the vehicle or after it rains,
wipe away water on the roof prior to
opening the moonroof to prevent drops
of water from falling into the passenger
compartment.
NOTE
Driving with the moonroof fully open
can cause an annoying sound to be
generated at high speeds. If this oc-
curs, use the moonroof at the initial
stop position of 1.6 in (4 cm) away from
the fully opened position.
!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 to the fully open
position and stops there. The anti-entrap-
ment function may also be activated by a
strong shock on the moonroof even when
there is nothing trapped.
CAUTION
Never attempt to test this function
using fingers, hands or other parts
of your body.
NOTE
For the sake of safety, it is recom-
mended that you avoid driving with the
moonroof fully opened.
&Sun shade
The sun shade can be slid forward or
backward by hand while the moonroof is
closed.
If the moonroof is opened, the sun shade
also moves back.

Ignition switch (models with-
out“keyless access with
push-button start system”)
WARNING
.Never turn the ignition switch to
the“LOCK”position while the
vehicle is being driven or towed
because that will lock the steer-
ing wheel, preventing steering
control. And when the engine is
turned off, it takes a much great-
er effort than usual to steer.
.Before leaving the vehicle, al-
ways 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 or
others. Children could operate
the power windows, the moon-
roof or other controls or even
make the vehicle move.
CAUTION
Do not attach a large key holder or
key case to either key. If it banged
against your knees or hands while
you are driving, it could turn the
ignition switch from the“ON”posi-
tion to the“ACC”or“LOCK”posi-
tion, thereby stopping the engine.
Also, if the key is attached to a key
holder or to a large bunch of other
keys, centrifugal force may act on it
as the vehicle moves, resulting in
unwanted turning of the ignition
switch.
The ignition switch has four positions:
LOCK, ACC, ON and START.
NOTE
.Keep the ignition switch in the
“LOCK”position when the engine is
not running.
.Using electrical accessories for a
long time with the ignition switch in the
“ON”or“ACC”position can cause the
battery to go dead.
.If the ignition switch will not move
from the“LOCK”position to the“ACC”
position, turn the steering wheel
slightly to the left and right as you turn
the ignition switch.
&LOCK
The key can only be inserted or removed
in this position. The ignition switch will lock
the steering wheel when you remove the
key.
If turning the key is difficult, turn the
steering wheel slightly to the right and left
as you turn the key.
3-4

The key can be turned from the“ACC”to
“LOCK”position only when the select
lever is in the“P”position (CVT models)
and the key is pushed in while turning it
(all models).
&ACC
In this position the electrical accessories
(audio, accessory power outlet, etc.) can
be used.
&ON
This is the normal operating position after
the engine is started.
&START
The engine is started in this position. The
starter cranks the engine to start it. Whenthe key is released (after the engine has
started), the key automatically returns to
the“ON”position.
CAUTION
Do not turn the ignition switch to the
“START”position while the engine
is running.
If your registered key fails to start the
engine, pull out the key once (the security
indicator light will blink), and then insert
the key into the ignition switch and turn it
to the“START”position and again try to
start the engine.
NOTE
The engine may not start in the follow-
ing cases:
.The key grip is touching another key
or a metallic key holder.
.The key is near another key that
contains an immobilizer transponder.
.The key is near or touching another
transmitter.
&Key reminder chime
The reminder chime sounds when the
driver’s door is opened and the ignition
switch is in the“LOCK”or“ACC”position.
The chime stops under the following
conditions.
.when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON”position
.when the key is removed from the
ignition switch
.when the driver’s door is closed

within the operating range of the an-
tennas inside the vehicle, the push-
button ignition switch and the engine
start cannot be operated..Even when the access key is outside
the vehicle, if it is placed too close to
the glass, it may be possible to switch
the power or to start the engine.
.Do not leave the access key in the
following places. It may become im-
possible to operate the push-button
ignition switch and the engine start. It
may also cause a false warning to
