“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
During engagement and
disengagement procedures, the
warning light
flashes until the
parking brake has reached its
maximum activation force and is
respectively fully released.
In the above-mentioned conditions,
the automatic engagement function
can be deactivated/activated by
selecting the menu item “Vehicle
settings” on the main menu (refer to
paragraph “Deactivating Automatic
Operation” in this chapter).
Manual Engagement/
Disengagement The parking brake can also be
manually engaged or disengaged
when the engine is running or the
ignition switch is in the RUN position, by pressing the brake pedal and
raising the lever located behind the
shift lever.
When the parking brake is applied, the
warning light
lights up on the
tachometer and the related message
will be displayed for 5 seconds on the
instrument cluster.
If you attempt to engage/disengage
the parking brake without having
pressed the brake pedal, a message
will be displayed, warning you to
proceed.
If the engine was turned off when the
automatic engagement device was
deactivated (see “Deactivating
Automatic Operation” in this chapter)
it is possible to shift the parking brake
simply by pulling the lever upward
within 3 minutes after turning off. CAUTION!
The main function of the EPB is to
allow safe parking of the vehicle,
therefore it must only be applied
when the vehicle is already stationary.
If the EPB is used while the vehicle is
moving and decelerating until a speed
lower of 3 mph (5 km/h) and, in
particular, until complete stop
(typically in a sudden brake), it is
necessary to have the EPB system
checked by an Authorized Maserati
Dealer .
WARNING!
• Always hold the brake pedal pressed
during engagement or
disengagement of the parking brake.
• The EPB command activation while
running generates a deceleration of
the vehicle with strong deceleration
(Dynamic Braking). It is therefore
recommended to use this feature
only in case of emergency. The
stability of the car is guaranteed by
the action of the activated ESC
system.Driving

modified function.
In order to disable the automatic
operation follow the same procedures
and select the other option.
CAUTION!
• Under certain conditions when the
battery voltage is low, the electric
automatic parking brake system may
temporarily be deactivated for safety
reasons. Therefore, typically upon
starting the engine, when the
battery voltage drops, a message
may temporarily be displayed,
indicating that automatic operation
is temporarily disabled.

Failure Indication In the event of electric parking brake
system failure, the warning light
on the display will light up and the
related message will show for 5
seconds.
WARNING!
In the event of an EPB failure, take
your vehicle to the nearest Authorized
Maserati Dealer as soon as possible.
Initialize the EPB System after
Re-connecting
the vehicle battery After the detachment and the
subsequent connection of the battery,
on the instrument cluster display the
warning light
will be illuminated.
To initialize the EPB system, lift,
release and lift again the lever located
behind the shift lever.
Emergency Disengagement
In case of brake lock with complete
electrical system failure, it is necessary
to force the electric actuator on the
rear calipers (see “Emergency Release
of the Parking Brake” chapter in
section “In an Emergency”).
EPB Operation with
Overheated Brakes Driving on mountain roads with steep
slopes or a sports use of the vehicle
could overheat the brake system
components. In these conditions, the
parking brake must not be used since
the push of the power actuator might
not be sufficient to ensure vehicle
braking, especially on a slope.
Drive normally without braking to
allow the brakes to cool down a few
minutes before stopping. In this way,
the automatic or manual activation of
the parking brake will ensure vehicle
braking.Parking Before leaving the vehicle, make sure
that the parking brake is fully applied
and place the shift lever in the P (Park)
position.
WARNING!
• Always check that the vehicle is
locked before leaving it.
• Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle.
• Do not park the vehicle on paper,
grass, dry leaves or other flammable
materials.
• Do not leave the engine running
while the vehicle is unattended.
CAUTION!
When you need to park the vehicle on
a steep slope, both with the engine on
or off, it is recommended not only to
engage the parking brake, but also to
shift the gearshift lever to P (Park)
before leaving the vehicle.
When parking on hill roads, it is
important
to turn
the front wheels
toward the curb on a downhill gradeDriving
5
236

and away from the curb on an uphill
grade.
Apply the parking brake before
placing the shift lever in P (Park),
otherwise the load on the
transmission locking mechanism may
make it difficult to move the shift
lever out of P (Park).
In certain conditions, it is however
advisable to disengage the parking brake manually and slightly apply the
service brake for starting off. This is
advisable when there are obstacles
very close to the vehicle in the
direction in which you intend to move.
“Drive Away Inhibit” strategy In order to avoid a dangerous
condition resulting from leaving the
vehicle “not braked” with running engine and without driver on board,
“Drive Away Inhibit” strategy alerts
the driver with messages on the
instrument cluster display and
sounding chimes, then puts the
transmission in P (Park).
The table shows the vehicle condition
and the action that the system runs to
exit the dangerous condition.
Vehicle condition Action of the driver
The system puts the
transmission in P
(Park) position.• Engine running and speed lower than
1.8 mph (3 km/h).

CAUTION!
• Under normal conditions, all red
warning lights on the instrument
cluster display should be off. When
they come on, this indicates a
malfunction. Refer to “Instrument
Cluster” in section “Dashboard
Instruments and Controls”.
• Continuing to drive when a red
warning light is on could cause
serious damage to the vehicle and
affect its performance.
Onboard Diagnostic System Your vehicle is equipped with a
sophisticated onboard diagnostic
system. This system monitors the
performance of the emissions, engine,
and automatic transmission control
systems. When these systems are
operating properly, your vehicle will
provide excellent performance and
fuel economy, as well as engine
emissions well within current local
regulations of various countries.
If any of these systems require service,
the system will turn on the
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL).
It will also store diagnostic codes and
other information, which your Authorized Maserati Dealer will use to
service your vehicle. Although the
vehicle will still be driveable and not
need towing, contact an Authorized
Maserati Dealer for service as soon as
possible.
CAUTION!
• Prolonged driving with the
Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) on could cause further damage
to the emissions control system. It
could also affect fuel economy and
drivability. The vehicle must be
serviced before any emissions tests
can be performed.
•Ifthe
Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) is flashing while the
engine is running, severe catalytic
converter damage and power loss will soon occur. Immediate service is
required at an Authorized Maserati
Dealer .
• After the problem has been solved,
the Authorized Maserati Dealer
personnel will perform specific tests
for a complete check of the system
and, if necessary, road tests.Driving

illuminate on the instrument cluster.
Resume can be used at any speed
above 18 mph (30 km/h). Using Electronic Cruise Control
on Hills The transmission may be downshifted
on hills to maintain the vehicle set
speed. The CC system maintains set
speed up and down hills. A slight
speed change on moderate hills is
normal. On steep slopes, a greater
speed loss or gain may occur so we
recommend to drive without CC.
WARNING!
Electronic Cruise Control can be
dangerous where the system cannot
maintain a constant speed. Your
vehicle could go too fast for the
conditions, and you could lose control
and have an accident. Do not use
electronic Cruise Control in heavy
traffic or on winding, icy,
snow-covered or slippery roads.Adaptive Cruise Control –
