opening, the motor of the liftgate is
disabled to allow manual operation.
• If the power liftgate/Hands free finds
several obstacles during the same
2 operating cycle, it will stop
automatically and must be opened or
closed manually.
• If the power liftgate/Hands free is
closing and a gear is engaged, the
liftgate will continue closing. In this
condition, it is possible that, during
the closing stroke, it may find an
obstacle and stop.
WARNING!
If, for any reason, the liftgate must
remain open while driving, close all
the windows and activate the fan of
the air conditioning control at the
maximum speed. Do not activate
recirculation.
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.
• If during this time you press the
lower button to close the liftgate
and activate the alarm, if a key fob
46
RKE transmitter is left in the trunk,
the system will close the liftgate and
will activate the alarm system. This
option is recommended when you
want to leave the other key fob RKE
transmitter inside the vehicle.
• By pressing the same button after 16
seconds, if a key fob RKE transmitter
is left in the trunk, the liftgate will
close and will partially reopen. If the
"Passive Entry" system detects no key
fob RKE transmitter inside the trunk,
close the liftgate and will activate
the alarm system.
Set the Position of Maximum Power
Liftgate Opening
The maximum opening position of the
liftgate can be modified using the
previously described buttons on the
outer left edge of the boot
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.
3. Release the button (pressed in the
previous point). Upon the following
opening controls, the liftgate will
stop in the stored position.
If you want to reset the maximum
possible opening position of the
liftgate, proceed as described below
starting from the previously set
opening position.
1. Manually push the liftgate to the
maximum possible opening
position.
2. Repeat the previously performed
steps 2 and 3.
Power Liftgate/Hands Free Automatic
Safe Movement
Power liftgate/Hands free 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 liftgate when a pressure is
carried out, also slight, within their
range shown in the figure.
