CAUTION!
When selling the vehicle, you should
contact the above mentioned Client
Service to have your device removed
from the list of activated devices
registered in your name. Do not
simply give your control unit password
to a new owner. To avoid improper
internet access in your name and
allow new owner registration you
must de-register with the service
provider. A new owner will not be
able to register the device if it still
appears registered in the prior
owner's name. If you are a subsequent
owner, the unit could be improperly
monitored (usage and location), if it is
still registered to a prior owner. Cargo Area WARNING!
To help protect against personal
injury, passengers must not be seated
in the rear cargo area. The rear cargo
space is intended for load carrying
purposes only, not for passengers,
who should sit in seats and use seat
belts.
Vehicle Load Carrying Capacity The load carrying capacity of your
vehicle is shown on the vehicle
emission control label positioned on
the rear driver door's ledge.
The information indicated on the label
concerns passengers and luggage
loading operations. Do not exceed the specified Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or the
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR),
both front and rear.
The GVWR is the total allowable
weight of your vehicle. This includes
driver, passengers, and cargo.
The total load must be limited so that
you do not exceed the GVWR
indicated on the label.
Vehicle Loading WARNING!
• After loading the vehicle, before
driving, adjust the headlight beam
leveling using the specific regulator
(if available) as described in chapter
“Lights” in this section.
• Improper weight distribution can
have an adverse effect on the way
the vehicle steers, handles and the
way the brakes operate.
• Never drive with the trunk lid open.
Exhaust gases can enter the
passenger compartment.
• Do not pile luggage or cargo higher
than the top of the seatback. This
could impair visibility or become
dangerous in a sudden stop orUnderstanding the Vehicle

Bag:
• Tilt forward the short seatback side.
• Secure the rear hook of the bag to
the eyelet located on the rear wall
of the trunk compartment.
• Wrap the belt around the seat back
of the folded seat and fasten the
belt buckle.
• Tighten the belt as much as
necessary to prevent the bag from
moving. Folding the Long (60) Seatback Side
• Press the red button located on the

• Unlatch the long (60) seatback side
by pulling tab between the seatback
and the side bolster. • Partially fold down the long
seatback side and remove the head
restraint of the center seat (see
“Head Restraints” in this section). In
this way it is avoided that the fully

NOTE:
When the seatback is tilted to the
upright position, reassemble the head
restraint of the center seat (see “Head
Restraints” in this section) make sure
the seatbelt of the rear central
position is in the proper condition for
use.
WARNING!
• Make sure that the seatback is
securely locked into position. If the
seatback is not securely locked into
position, the seat will not provide
the proper stability for child seats
and/or passengers. An improperly
latched seat could cause serious
injury.
• The cargo area in the rear of the
vehicle with the rear seatbacks in
the folded down position should not
be used as a play area by children
when the vehicle is in motion. They
could be seriously injured in a
collision. Children should be seated
and use proper restraint system. Power Sunroof with
Sunshade The sunroof is power controlled and
can only be operated with the ignition
switch in RUN position.
It can slide lengthways and be raised
at the rear (tilting).
By opening the sunroof a front flap
rises automatically in order to deviate
the air flow.
The power sunroof controls are
located between the sun visors on the
overhead console.
The right two buttons controls the
sunroof movement, whereas the left
button controls the lifting of the
sunroof for venting. The sunshade can be opened manually.
However, the sunshade will open
automatically as the sunroof opens.
The sunshade cannot be closed if the
sunroof is open.
WARNING!
• Improper use of the sunroof can be
dangerous, even if it features a
finger-trap prevention system.
Before and during the sunroof
operation, always make sure that
passengers are not exposed to the
risk of injuries caused by the moving
sunroof or by personal objects
dragged or hit by the moving
sunroof.
• Never leave children in a vehicle
with the key fob RKE transmitter in
the passenger compartment.Understanding the Vehicle

• In a collision, there is a greater risk
of being thrown from the vehicle if
the sunroof is open. Always fasten
your seat belt properly and make
sure all passengers are properly
secured too.
• Do not allow small children to
operate the sunroof. Never insert
fingers, other body parts, or any
object through the opening sunroof.
CAUTION!
• In the event of rain, always close the
sunroof to prevent water
infiltrations from staining the
fabric/leather upholstery.
• Do not open the sunroof if there is
ice on it: risk of damage.
Slide Opening Sunroof • Full automatic express opening
Press the right rear button for more
than half second and the sunroof
will open automatically regardless
of any previous position. The

automatically. During this
operation, if any sunroof button is
pressed, the sunroof will stop. • Full or partial manual opening
To open the sunroof manually press
the right rear button for less than
half second to move step by step
the sunroof panel.
Venting Sunroof Press and release the left button, and
the sunroof will open to the vent
position. This is called “Express Vent”,
and will occur regardless of sunroof
position. During this opening
operation, any movement of the
button will stop the sunroof.
Pinch Protect Feature This feature will detect an obstruction
in the opening of the sunroof during
express close operation. If an
obstruction is detected, the sunroof
will automatically retract. If this
occurs, remove the obstruction then
press the right front button and
release to express close.
NOTE:
If three consecutive attempts to close
in express mode the sunroof result in
pinch protect reversals, the fourth
attempt will be manual, with pinch
protect feature disabled. Pinch Protect Override
If any obstruction (ice, debris, etc.)
prevents closing the sunroof, press the
right front button and hold for two
seconds after the reversal occurs. This
allows the sunroof to move toward
the closed position.
NOTE:
Pinch protection is disabled while
pressing the right front button.
Wind Buffeting Wind buffeting can be described as
the perception of pressure or a
helicopter-type sound. Your vehicle
may exhibit wind buffeting with the
windows down, or the sunroof in
certain open or partially open
positions. This is a normal occurrence
and can be minimised. If the buffeting
occurs with the rear windows open,
then open the front and rear windows
together to minimise the buffeting. If
the buffeting occurs with the sunroof
open, then adjust the sunroof opening
to minimise the buffeting.

Right Turn Signal Indicator
This
indicator lights
up when
the right turn signals or the
hazard flashers are switched
on.
The indicator will flash at the same
frequency of the turn signals and is
controlled by the turn signal lever.
If the vehicle electronics sense that the
vehicle drives for more than 1 mile
(1.6 km) with either turn signal on, a
continuous sound will advise the driver
to turn the signal off.
If the indicator flashes at a fast rate,
check for a defective outside indicator
light bulb.
Seat Belt Reminder Light
When the ignition switch is in
RUN , the seat belt reminder
light will light up for a few
seconds as a bulb check.
During the bulb check, you will hear
an acoustic signal if one or both front
seat belts are unbuckled. After the bulb check or while driving,
if a seat belt is unbuckled, together
with the acoustic signal the seat belt
reminder light will light up and a
message will indicate which belt is not
fastened.
WARNING!
Maserati urges you to use the seat
belts correctly fastened and adjusted
at all times. Correct use of the seat
belts can help reduce the risk of
serious injury in the event of an
accident. Do not pass seat belts over
sharp edges. They could tear. Do not
pin anything to the seat belts. This
could reduce their initial strength and
cause them to tear in the event of a
crash.
