2019 MASERATI GHIBLI high beam

• Reduce your speed, especially on
roads with no streetlights.
• Stop at early signs of drowsiness.
Continuing to drive would be a risk
for yourself and for others. Have a
rest before continuing your trip.
• Keep the vehicle at a greater
distance from vehicles in front of
you than you would during the day:
it is difficult to assess the speed of
other vehicles when you only see the
lights.
• Use the high beams only outside of
densely-populated areas and when
you are sure that they will not
disturb other drivers.
• When another vehicle is
approaching, switch from high
beams (if on) to low beams.
• Keep lights and headlights clean.
• Outside of densely-populated areas,
beware of animals crossing the road.
Driving in the Rain
Rain and wet roads are dangerous. On
a wet road all maneuvers are more
difficult since wheel grip on the road
is significantly reduced. This means
that braking distances increase
considerably and road grip decreases.
Some advices for driving in the rain
are listed below. • Reduce your speed and keep a
greater safety distance from the
vehicles in front of you. High speed
may result in a loss of vehicle
control.
• When driving on wet or slushy roads,
it is possible for a wedge of water to
build up between the tire and road
surface. This is known as
aquaplaning and may cause partial
or complete loss of vehicle control
and stopping ability. To reduce this
possibility: slow down if the road has
standing water or puddles.
• Heavy rain substantially reduces
visibility. In these circumstances, even
during the day, turn on the low
beams, to be more visible to other
drivers.
• Set the air conditioning and heating
system controls on the defogging
function, in order to avoid any
visibility problem.
• Periodically check the conditions of
the windshield wiper blades.
• In low grip conditions use “I.C.E.”
driving mode (see chapters “Drive
Mode” in this section).
• Avoid driving with ESC OFF as this
will likely cause a loss of control of
the vehicle. Driving in Fog
If the fog is dense, avoid traveling if
possible.
When driving in mist, blanket fog or
when there is the possibility of banks
of fog, please consider some advices
listed below.
• Keep a moderate speed.
• Even in daytime, turn on the low
beams and rear fog lights. Do not
use the high beams.
• Remember that fog creates
dampness on the asphalt and thus
any type of maneuver is more
difficult and braking distances are
extended.
• Keep a safe distance from the
vehicle in front of you.
• Avoid sudden changes in speed as
much as possible.
• Whenever possible, avoid
overtaking.
• If you are forced to stop the vehicle
(breakdowns, impossibility of
proceeding due to poor visibility,
etc.), first of all, try to stop off of the
travel lane. Then turn on the hazard
warning flashers and, if possible, the
low beams.Driving

CAUTION!
Be aware that rear fog lights can
bother the drivers following your
vehicle: when visibility is back to
normal, turn off these lights.
Driving in the Mountains
Mountain
roads usually
have many
narrow turns and curves, tunnels and
steep uphill or downhill slopes: please
consider some advices listed below.
• Drive at a moderate speed, avoid
“cutting” corners.
• When driving inside a tunnel in
daylight turn on the low beams in
advance; avoid high beams and be
aware of the rapid brightness
change. Avoid abrupt maneuvers
that could be dangerous for the
following vehicle.
• Never coast downhill with the engine
off or in neutral.
• Remember that passing other
vehicles when driving uphill is slower
and thus requires more free distance
on the road. If you are being
overtaken on a hill, slow down and
allow the other vehicle to pass. Driving on Snow or Ice
Please consider some general advice
for driving in these conditions, listed
below.
• Maintain a very moderate speed.
• Fit snow chains or specific tires if the
road is covered with snow: see the
paragraphs “Tires – General
Information” in this section.
• We recommend you to activate the
“I.C.E.” mode (see chapters “Drive
Mode” in this section).
• During the winter season, even
apparently dry roads can have icy
sections. Be careful when crossing
bridges, viaducts and roads that have
little exposure to the sun and are
bordered by trees and rocks. They
may be icy.
• Keep an ample safe distance from
the vehicles in front of you.
WARNING!
• Rapid acceleration on slippery
surfaces is dangerous. Unequal
traction can cause sudden pulling of
the driving wheels. You could lose
control of the vehicle and possibly
have a collision. Accelerate slowly
and carefully whenever there is likely to be poor traction (ice, snow,
wet mud, loose sand, etc.).
• Do not drive on or across a road or
path where water is flowing and/or
rising (as in storm run-off). Flowing
water can wear away the road or
path surface and cause your vehicle
to sink into deeper water.
Furthermore, flowing and/or rising
water can carry your vehicle away
swiftly. Failure to follow this
warning may result in injuries that
are serious or fatal to you, your
passengers, and others around you.
Although your vehicle is capable of
driving
through shallow standing
water, consider the following Cautions
and Warnings before doing so.
CAUTION!
• Always check the depth of the
standing water before driving
through it. Never drive through
standing water that is deeper than
47 in (150 mm).
• Determine the condition of the road
or the path that is under water and if
there are any obstacles in the way
before driving through the standing
water.Driving

Bulb Replacement The signal failure of an external light
(turn signal, low beam and high beam,
number plate light, reverse light and
brake light) is communicated to the
instrument cluster that displays on the
TFT screen in a graphical form and
with a text message which light is
faulty (see example in the figure).
Front Headlights The lights are arranged as follows:
Bi-Xenon Version

Bi-Xenon bulb 25W.
2 Position and DRL light LED.
3 Direction indicator LED.

Due to the complexity of the
operation, for the replacement of the
headlight clusters light bulbs, we
recommend that you contact an

The Bi-Xenon bulbare a type of high
voltage discharge tube. High voltage
can remain in the circuit even with the
