be able to arm the alarm system.
The buttons - located on the outer
edge of the left trunk compartment
lining and indicated in the figure - can
be used to completely close and lock
the power liftgate and arm the alarm
system if all the doors are closed.
See chapter “ Power Liftgate

information.
Each time the vehicle security alarm is
armed, the anti-intrusion and anti-lift
sensors actively monitor the vehicle.
When arming the security alarm, it is
possible to disable these sensors by
pressing the
button on the key fob
three times within 5 seconds from the
moment the system has been armed
(meanwhile the security alarm light
flashes rapidly). To disarm the System Use any of the following steps to
disarm the vehicle security alarm.
• Press the button on key fob RKE
transmitter.
• Grasp the “Passive Entry” unlock
door handle (see “Passive Entry
System” in this section for further
information).
• Press the START/STOP button so as
to release the OFF position.
NOTE:
• When the vehicle security alarm is
armed, the interior power door lock
switch will not allow unlocking of
the doors.
• The use of the emergency key into
the driver door lock and the use of
the button

cannot arm or disarm the security
alarm of the vehicle.
• The vehicle security alarm remains
engaged while accessing the power
liftgate. Pressing the button
between the license plate lights will
not disarm the vehicle security
alarm. If anyone enters the vehicle
through the liftgate and opens a
door, the alarm will trigger. The vehicle security alarm is designed
to protect your vehicle; however, you
can create conditions where the
system will give you a false alarm. If
one of the previously described
arming sequences has occurred, the
vehicle security alarm will arm
regardless of whether you are in the
vehicle or not. If you remain in the
vehicle and open a door, the alarm
will activate. If this occurs, disarm the
vehicle security alarm.
If the vehicle security alarm is armed
and the battery becomes
disconnected, the vehicle security
alarm will remain armed when the
battery is reconnected; the exterior
lights will flash, the buzzer will
activate. If this occurs, disarm the
vehicle security alarm.Before Starting

power lines, antennas, etc. In these
cases, use the buttons of the key fob
RKE transmitter to open and close
the vehicle or the emergency key,
inserting it into the driver side door
lock.

compartment.
1. Activate the liftgate and stop it in
the new maximum opening
position to be set, by pressing the
upper
button.
2. Press the upper
or lower
buttons and keep it pressed for 3
seconds.

Movement
Power liftgate safe opening and
closing is ensured by a protection
system able to stop its movement
when an obstacle is detected along
the path: when opening or closing, it
stops automatically and then slightly
moves back.
Along the upper outer edges, the
vehicle is equipped with anti-pinch
protection sensors. These sensors stop
the automatic closing stroke and
partly open the power liftgate when a
pressure is carried out, also slight,
within their range shown in the
figure.
After the closing command, when
power liftgate starts closing, all the
indicators will blink to warn anyone
