Preventing Inadvertent Locking
of the Key fob RKE Transmitter
inside the Vehicle To minimize the possibility of
unintentionally locking a key fob RKE
transmitter inside your vehicle, the
“Passive Entry” system is equipped
with an automatic door unlock
feature which will function if the
ignition switch is in the OFF position.
If one of the vehicle doors is open and
the door panel switch
is used to
lock the vehicle, once all open doors
have been closed, the system checks
the inside and outside of the vehicle
for any valid key fobs RKE transmitter.
If one of the vehicle's key fobs RKE
transmitters is detected inside the
vehicle, and no other valid key fobs
RKE transmitters are detected outside
the vehicle, the “Passive Entry” system
automatically unlocks all vehicle doors
and chirps the horn fourteen times (on
the fifteenth attempt ALL doors will
lock and the key fob RKE transmitter
will be locked in the vehicle). This will
happen even on vehicles equipped
with Power Trunk Lid/Hand Free
pressing RH button on its right lower
part to close and lock the trunk lid. NOTE:
The vehicle unlocks the doors under
any of the following conditions:
• the doors are manually locked using
the door lock knob positioned on
the door panel;
• there is a valid key fob RKE
transmitter inside the vehicle;
• there is not a valid key fob RKE
transmitter outside the vehicle.
NOTE:
The vehicle will not unlock the doors
under any of the following conditions:
• the doors are locked using the key
fob RKE transmitter;
• the doors are locked using the
button on the “Passive Entry” door
handles; • there is a valid key fob RKE
transmitter outside the vehicle and
within 3.3 ft (1 m) of either “Passive
Entry” door handle;
• fifteen attempts are made to lock
the doors using the door panel
switch and/or the RH button
(on
the vehicles equipped with Power
Trunk Lid/Hands Free) and then close
the doors.
If the key fob RKE transmitter is inside
the passenger compartment and one
of the doors locked only to the first
detent of lock pawl (hence it is not
fully closed), when the vehicle lock
function with alarm system for trunk
lid and doors is being activated by
means of RH button
at the bottom
of the trunk lid, said function will be
activated all the same.
In this condition, any attempt to duly
close the door that is partially openBefore Starting

will cancel vehicle lock and alarm
system arming thus leaving vehicle
unlocked.
Since when the doors are locked, the
"Passive Entry" system waits for about
16 seconds before verifying if a key
fob RKE transmitter is present inside
the vehicle.
Release the Lid and Enter the
Trunk For vehicles equipped with manual
trunk lid, with the key fob within 3.3 ft
(1 m) of the lid, press the button
located between the licence plate
lights and lift it manually.
For vehicles equipped with Power
Trunk Lid/Hands Free, with the key fob
within 3.3 ft (1 m) of the lid, press the
button located between the license
plate lights, the power trunk lid will
automatically open until it has reached
its maximum height; if the same
button is not pressed again to stop it
(for more information, see chapter
“Trunk Lid Operation” in this section).
If the vehicle had already been
unlocked through key fob or “Passive
Entry”, the presence of the key fob is
not required; simply use the button
located between the license plate
lights to open the trunk lid manually
or automatically. Manual Door Lock from
Outside With one of the vehicle’s key fobs RKE
transmitters within 3.3 ft (1 m) of the
driver or passenger front door handles,
press the external door handle button
to lock all four doors.
NOTE:
• After pressing the outside door
handle button, you must wait two
seconds before you can lock or
unlock the doors using this door
handle. By pulling the external door
handle, you can check if the car
remains locked, without “Passive
Entry” system reacting and unlocking
the doors.
• The “Passive Entry” system will not
operate if the key fob RKE
transmitter battery is dead.
• If Power Trunk Lid/Hands Free (if
equipped) has been left open, it will
stay open when you press the button
on door external handle, and the
locking feature will only occur after
the closing of the power trunk lid. The vehicle doors can also be locked by

remain active for up to 10 minutes
after the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position. Opening either
front door will cancel this feature.
The time lapse can be set. See “MTC+

further information.
• Frequent activations of the power
windows could result in a temporary
lock out of the motors. In this case,
wait a moment before a new
activation.
WARNING!
Improper use of the power windows
and the sunroof (if equipped) can
however be dangerous, even with the
anti-pinch prevention system. Before
and during activation of the power
window, always check that the
passengers are not exposed to the risk
of injury both by the moving window
and by personal objects that could be
dragged or hit by it. Do not leave
unattended children in a vehicle with
a key fob RKE transmitter inside.
When getting out the vehicle, always
remove the key fob RKE transmitter to prevent the windows being

Remove the obstacle and use the
window switch again to close the
window.
• Any impact due to rough road
conditions may trigger the auto
reverse function unexpectedly during
auto-closure. If this happens, pull the
switch lightly to the first detent and
hold to close the window manually.
