FIAT Freemont - Manual (Page 97)

WARNING!
• For personal security and safety in the
event of an accident, lock the vehicle
doors before you drive as well as when you park
and leave the vehicle.
• When leaving the vehicle, always remove the
Key Fob from the vehicle and lock your vehicle.
Unsupervised use of vehicle equipment may
cause severe personal injuries or death.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle. Leaving
unattended children in a vehicle is dangerous for
a number of reasons. A child or others could be
seriously or fatally injured. Do not leave the Key
Fob in the ignition. A child could operate power
windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
POWER DOOR LOCKS
A power door lock switch is on each front door trim
panel. Use this switch to lock or unlock the doors and
liftgate. (fig. 82)
If you press the power door lock switch while the Key
Fob is in the vehicle, and any front door is open, the
power locks will not operate. This prevents you from
accidentally locking the Key Fob in the vehicle. Remov-
ing the Key Fob or closing the door will allow the locks
to operate. If a door is open, and the ignition is in the
LOCK or ACC position, a chime will sound as a
reminder to remove the Key Fob.
Automatic Door Locks
The doors will lock automatically on vehicles with
power door locks if all of the following conditions are
met:
1. The Automatic Door Locks feature is enabled.
2. The transmission is in gear.
3. All doors are closed.
4. The throttle is pressed.
5. The vehicle speed is above 24 km/h.
6. The doors were not previously locked using the
power door lock switch or Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter.
NOTE: Use the Automatic Door Locks feature in
accordance with local laws.
