2016 FIAT FREEMONT keyless

WARNING!
• For personal security and safety in the
e v

ent of a collision, lock the vehicle
doors before you drive as well as when you park
and leave the vehicle.
• When leaving the vehicle, always remove the
Key Fob from the vehicle and lock your vehicle.
Unsupervised use of vehicle equipment may
cause severe personal injuries or death.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children
to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a
number of reasons. A child or others could be
seriously or fatally injured. Children should be
warned not to touch the parking brake, brake
pedal or the transmission gear selector.
• Do not leave the Key Fob in or near the vehicle,
or in a location accessible to children, and do not
leave the ignition of a vehicle equipped with
Keyless Enter-N-Go™ in the ACC or ON/RUN
mode. A child could operate power windows,
other controls, or move the vehicle. POWER DOOR LOCKS
A power door lock switch is on each front door trim
panel. Use this switch to lock or unlock the doors and
liftgate.
(fig. 92)
If you press the power door lock switch while the
ignition is in the ACC or ON/RUN position, and any
front door is open, the power locks will not operate.
This prevents you from accidentally locking the Key
Fob in the vehicle. Cycling the ignition to the OFF
position or closing the door will allow the locks to
operate. If a door is open, and the ignition is in the
ACC or ON/RUN position, a chime will sound as a
reminder to turn the ignition OFF.

having to press the RKE transmitter lock or unlock
buttons.

further information.
• If wearing gloves on your hands, or if it has been raining on the Passive Entry door handle, the unlock
sensitivity can be affected, resulting in a slower re-
sponse time.
• If the vehicle is unlocked by the RKE transmitter or Passive Entry and no door goes ajar within 60 sec-
onds, the vehicle will re-lock and will arm the secu-
rity alarm.

LIFTGATE
The liftgate can be unlocked or locked pushing the
UNLOCK or LOCK button on the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter, the Keyless Enter-N-Go™
(Passive Entry) LOCK/UNLOCK button underneath
the left side of the accent bar, which is located on the
liftgate below the glass or by activating the power door
lock switch located on either front door trim panel.
For further information on Keyless Enter-N-Go™

the manual door lock plungers on the door trim panels
or the door lock cylinder on the driver's door.
To open the unlocked liftgate, squeeze the handle and
pull the liftgate toward you. Gas props will raise and
support the liftgate in the open position. NOTE:
• In the event of a power malfunction to the liftgate, an
emergency liftgate latch release can be used to open
the liftgate. The emergency liftgate latch release can
be accessed through a snap-in cover located on the
liftgate trim panel.
• If liftgate is left open for an extended period of time, the liftgate may need to be closed manually to reset
power liftgate functionality.
(fig. 102)
NOTE: Because the gas pressure drops with tempera-
ture, it may be necessary to assist the props when
opening the liftgate in cold weather.
