Passive Entry System The “Passive Entry” system is an
enhancement to the vehicle’s Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) system. This
feature allows you to lock and unlock
the vehicle’s door(s) without having to
press the key fob RKE transmitter lock
or unlock buttons.
NOTE:
• “Passive Entry” may be programmed
to on/off; see “MTC+ Settings” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls” for further information.
• If wearing gloves, or if it has been
raining on the “Passive Entry” door
handle, the unlock sensitivity can be
affected, resulting in a slower
response time.
• Access to the vehicle using “Passive
Entry” system may not work properly
in case of interference caused by
external sources such as metal
objects, mobile phones, overhead
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.
• The “Passive Entry” system does not
lock and unlock the doors directly and immediately but with a slight
delay (about 2 seconds).
Unlock Door from the Driver
Side With a valid key fob RKE transmitter
within 3.3 ft (1 m) of the driver's door
handle, grip the driver’s door outside
handle to unlock the door
automatically. The interior door panel
lock knob will rise when the door is
unlocked. NOTE:
If “1st Press of Key Fob Unlocks” is
selected, all doors will unlock when
you grip the front driver’s door handle.
To select between “Driver Door” and
“All Doors”, see “MTC+ Settings” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”.

sideways and immediately pull it back:
from this moment, the power trunk lid
will activate within two seconds.
If closed, with the foot movement the
power trunk lid will:
• unlock and completely open;
• after another kick, will stop;
• after another kick, will reverse its
movement and completely close
unless stopped again.
If open, with the foot movement the
power trunk lid will:
• completely close but not lock;
• another kick before the completed
closing can stop the movement;
• if the movement was stopped
another kick operation will invert a
complete opening.
NOTE:
• If your foot movement fails to
activate the power trunk lid
movement, wiggling your foot under
the bumper will not help. Repeat the
whole kick movement.
• In particular situations, external
factors affecting the sensor area may
trigger the Hands free power trunk
lid release feature. For example,
when washing the vehicle, a water
jet aimed at the sensor area may trigger the “Hands free” power
trunk release feature. Keep the key
fob RKE transmitter away from the
sensing range of the sensors (10 ft/3
m) or disable the “Hands free”
feature from the MTC+ menu (see
“MTC+ Settings” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”). A key fob RKE transmitter
located in the front seat passenger
area is considered out of range of
the “Hands free” trunk lid release
sensor.
• If somebody or something knocks
against the power trunk lid while it is
moving, the safety system might stop
lid opening or closing movement.
Trunk Lid Emergency Release If accessing the trunk from the rear
seats, operate the emergency release
lever (see the chapter "Trunk Safety"
in this section) in order to lower the
rear seat backrest (see "Cargo Area" in
section “Understanding the Vehicle”).
If the power release control operated
by pressing the button on the dome
console fails, which may occur when
the battery is low on voltage, it is
possible to temporarily power the
system by using the battery remote
poles located inside the engine compartment (see “Auxiliary
Jump-Start Procedure” in section “In
an Emergency”). Thus it is possible to
normally open the trunk lid by using
the key fob RKE transmitter. Have the
vehicle checked by an Authorized
Maserati Dealer in order to solve the
failure.Before Starting
