Power Windows The window controls on the driver's
door panel govern all the door
windows.
There are single window controls on
each passenger door trim panel, which
operate the corresponding window.
The window controls will operate only
when the ignition switch is in the ACC
or RUN position. NOTE:
• The power window switches will
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+
Settings” in section “Dashboard
Instruments and Controls” for
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
accidentally activated, posing a risk to
passengers remaining onboard.

and some model passenger door
power window switches have an
auto-down feature.
Press the window switch to the second
detent, release, and the window will
go completely down automatically.
To open the window part way, press
the window switch to the first detent
and release it when you want the
window to stop.
To stop the window from going all the
way down during the auto-down
operation, pull up on the switch
briefly.
Auto-Up Feature with
Anti-Pinch Protection Lift the window switch to the second
detent, release, and the window will
go all the way up automatically.

• If the window runs into any obstacle
during auto-closure, it will reverse
direction and then go back down.
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.
• Frequent activations of the
anti-pinch function could disable the
auto-down and auto-up function of
the windows. In order to re-activate
this function proceed with a reset
cycle as described in the next
paragraph.
WARNING!
There is no anti-pinch protection
when the window is almost closed. Be
sure to clear all objects from the area
before closing the window. Reset Auto-Up/Down Should the auto-up/down feature stop
working, the window probably needs
to be reset.

equipped) in open or partially open
positions. This is a normal occurrence
and can be minimized. If the buffeting
occurs with the rear windows open,
open the front and rear windows
together to minimize the buffeting. If
the buffeting occurs with the sunroof
open, then adjust the sunroof opening
to minimize the buffeting.Before Starting

been unlocked using the key fob or
the “Passive Entry” system.
When the button
on the key fob is
pressed twice within five seconds, the
direction indicators flash twice to
indicate the opening or closing of the
power liftgate, if the light flashing
function at closing is activated on
MTC+ (for more information, see the
chapter "MTC+ Settings" in section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
With the ignition switch in RUN
position, the red symbol
will be
displayed on the instrument cluster. If
the vehicle is in motion, in addition to
the symbol
will also appear a

Apart from activating indicators
blinking when power liftgate is
operated, it is also possible to activate
a sound warning by selecting the
relevant function within MTC+ user
settings (see “MTC+ Settings” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
When power liftgate edge reaches the
car body, the motor locking the latch is
activated automatically.
If necessary, the power liftgate can
also be opened or closed manually
using the handles indicated in the
picture. This operation could be
required when the liftgate remains
open for a long period of time. NOTE:
Frequent activations of the anti-pinch
protection function may disable the
automatic movement of the power
liftgate. To reactivate this function,
perform a reset cycle by carrying out a
complete opening/closing sequence,
after manually closing the power
liftgate.
WARNING!
• Activate power liftgate only when
vehicle is at a standstill.
• Always pay utmost attention when
opening and closing the tailgate. If
for any reason the protection system
might fail to respond, it could cause
injury to anyone within the
operating area.
• After the closing command, always
make sure that power liftgate is
completely closed.
CAUTION!
• Under extreme weather conditions,
liftgate seal could freeze and
compromise power liftgate
automatic opening and closing. • Before opening power liftgate, make
sure that no objects or snow are set
on liftgate or might jam or prevent
its opening.
Hands Free Power Liftgate Release
and Closing
This mode is
controlled by the “Passive
Entry” system (see paragraph “Passive
Entry System” in this section), which
automatically releases and closes the
power liftgate when you place your
foot in the area under the rear
bumper.
The system will only operate if the
system acknowledges the presence of
the key fob RKE transmitter within 3.3
ft (1 m) of the power liftgate.
The range of the sensors that detect
your foot movement extends along
and underneath the central portion of
the rear bumper.
To activate the power liftgate, stand
behind the vehicle, near the liftgate,
and move your foot under the bumper
as if to kick something. Do not place
your foot too close to the bumper or
touch the underbody.
WARNING!
• Pay careful attention to the exhaustBefore Starting

tailpipes as they can reach high
temperatures and, in case of contact,
they can cause severe burns.
• When it is not necessary to open the
power liftgate with the Hands free
mode, make sure the key fob is
outside the range of use (3.3 ft/1 m).
Otherwise, the power liftgate can
be opened accidentally by an
unintentional movement of the
foot.
In order for the sensors to detect your
foot
movement, move your foot
towards the vehicle rather than
sideways and immediately pull it back:
from this moment, the power liftgate
will activate within two seconds.
If closed, with the foot movement the
power liftgate 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 liftgate 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 liftgate
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
liftgate release feature. For example,
when washing the vehicle, a water
jet aimed at the sensor area may
trigger the Hands free power
liftgate 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 liftgate
release sensor.
• If somebody or something knocks
against the power liftgate while it is
moving, the safety system might
stop lid opening or closing
movement.
Power Liftgate Emergency
Release If the power release control operated
by pressing the button on the dome
console fails, the battery could be in a
low condition. In this case, 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”). Then it is possible to
normally open the power liftgate by
using the key fob RKE transmitter.

position, the red symbol
will display
on the instrument cluster with the
message indicating that the hood is
open.
Closing Lower the hood, and then gently drop
it. This should secure the inclusion of
both latches.
CAUTION!
To prevent possible damage, do not slam the hood to close it.
WARNING!
• Be sure the hood is fully latched
before driving your vehicle. If the lid
is not fully latched, it could open
when the vehicle is in motion and
block your vision. Failure to follow
this warning could result in serious
injury or death.
• Gear shifting is always active and
may be performed even when one
or more doors, the hood or the
liftgate are open. Therefore, in these
conditions, take great care to avoid
moving the transmission shift lever
and so accidentally engage gears.Before Starting
