Do not operate the moonroof if falling snow or extremely cold conditions have caused it to freeze shut. . Do not touch the moving parts of the moonroof while the moonroof is operating. . If the moonroof does not close, we recommend that you have the system checked by a SUBARU dealer. The moonroof operates only when the ignition switch is in the “ON” position.

The anti-entrapment 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.
