does not represent the sequence in
which they can be performed. • The buttons of the Power Trunk
Lid/Hands Free do not work if a gear
is engaged or if the vehicle speed is
higher than 0 (km/h - mph).
• The Power Trunk Lid/Hands Free
does not work with temperatures
lower than −22°F (−30°C) or higher
than 150°F (65°C).
• If the opening buttons or the
handles are operated while the
Power Trunk Lid/Hands Free is
closing, the stroke of lid stops.
Pressing another time the same
command it reverses movement and
fully open.
• If the opening buttons or the handle
are operated while the Power Trunk
Lid/Hands Free is opening, the motor
of the lid is disabled to allow manual
operation.
• If the Power Trunk Lid/Hands Free
finds several obstacles during the
same operating cycle, it will stop
automatically and must be opened
or closed manually.
• If the Power Trunk Lid/Hands Free is

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 Trunk
Lid/Hands Free will activate within two
seconds.
If closed, with the foot movement the
Power Trunk Lid/Hands Free 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 Trunk Lid/Hands Free 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 Trunk Lid/Hands
Free 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 trunk
lid release feature. For example,
when washing the vehicle, a water
jet aimed at the sensor area may
trigger the “Hands free” power
trunk 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
“Hand free” trunk release sensor.
• If somebody or something knocks
against the Power Trunk Lid/Hands
Free while it is moving, the safety system might stop lid opening or
closing movement.
Trunk Lid Emergency Release If accessing the trunk compartment
from the rear seats, operate the
emergency release lever (see the
chapter “Trunk Safety” in this section)
in order to lower the rear seat
backrest (see “Cargo Area” in section
“Understanding the Vehicle”). If the
power release control operated by
pressing the button on the dome
console fails, it may be that the
battery is critical. 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 trunk lid by using
the key fob RKE transmitter. Have the
vehicle subsequently serviced by an
Authorized Maserati Dealer center in
order to solve the failure.Before Starting

latch your belt into the
corresponding buckle.
• A seat belt that is too loose will not
protect you properly. In a sudden
stop, you could move too far
forward, increasing the possibility of
injury. Wear your seat belt snugly.
• A belt that is worn under your arm
is dangerous. Your body could strike
the inside surfaces of the vehicle in
an accident, increasing head and
neck injury. A belt worn under the
arm can also cause internal injuries.
• Position the lap belt so that it is snug
and
lies low across your hips, below
your abdomen. To fasten the lap belt
pull slightly up the diagonal portion
of the shoulder belt. To loosen the
lap belt if too tight, tilt the latch
plate and pull on the lap belt. A
snug belt reduces the risk of sliding
under the belt in an accident.
WARNING!
• A lap belt worn too high can
increase the risk of internal injury in
an accident. The belt forces won't
impact on the strong hip and pelvic
bones, but across your abdomen.
Always wear the lap belt as low as possible and keep it comfortable.
• A twisted belt will not protect you
properly. In a collision, it could even
cut into you. Be sure the belt is
straight. If you can't straighten a
belt in your vehicle, take it to a
Service Center immediately.
• Do not use devices (clips, fastenings
etc.) that prevent the seat belts from
laying close to the occupants bodies.
• Never carry children on a
passenger’s lap.
• Position the shoulder belt on your
chest
so that
it is comfortable and
not resting on your neck. The
retractor will withdraw any slack in
the belt.
• To release the belt, push the red
button on the buckle. The belt will
automatically retract to its stowed
position. If necessary, guide the seat
belt with your hand while it is
rewinding, to prevent it from
twisting.
WARNING!
A frayed or torn belt could break in an
accident and leave you with no
protection. Inspect the belt system
periodically, checking for cuts, frays, or loose parts. Damaged parts must
be replaced immediately.
Do not disassemble or modify the
system. Seat belt/retractor assemblies
must be replaced by an Authorized
Maserati Dealer after an accident if
they have been damaged (bent
retractor, torn belt, etc.).
Three-Point Seat Belt Height
Adjustment
WARNING!
• Wearing your seat belt incorrectly
could make your injuries in a
collision much worse. You might
suffer internal injuries, or you could
even slide out of the seat belt.
Follow these instructions to wear
your seat belt safely and to keep
your passengers safe, too.
• Position the shoulder belt across the
shoulder and chest with minimal, if
any slack so that it is comfortable
and not resting on your neck. The
retractor will withdraw any slack in
the shoulder belt.
• Misadjustment of the seat belt could
reduce the effectiveness of the
safety belt in a crash.
