Passive Entry System - Maserati Ghibli 2016 Owner's Manual

Before Starting

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
2
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
4 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 remote
control 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
40
and immediately but with a slight
delay (about 2 seconds).
