ignition system timing can be set using
the MTC+ System (see “MTC+ Settings”
in section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
Sunroof Maintenance Use only a nonabrasive cleaner and a

HomeLink ®
(optional) HomeLink ®
replaces up to three
hand-held transmitters operating the
automatic devices that open garage
doors and gates, enable/disable the
lighting or security systems. The
HomeLink ®
unit is powered by your
vehicle's 12 Volt battery. The
HomeLink ®
buttons that are located in
the overhead console designate the
three different HomeLink ®
channels.
The HomeLink ®
indicator light is
located behind the buttons.
NOTE:
HomeLink ®
is disabled when the
vehicle security alarm is active (see
“Vehicle security alarm” in section
“Before Starting”). WARNING!
• Your motorized door or gate will
open and close while you are
programming the universal
transceiver. Do not program the
transceiver if people, pets or other
objects are in the path of the door or
gate. Only use this transceiver with a
garage door opener that has a “stop
and reverse” feature as required by
Federal safety standards. This
includes most garage door opener
models manufactured after 1982. Do
not use a garage door opener
without these safety features. Call
toll-free 1–800–355–3515 or, on the
Internet at www.HomeLink.com for
safety information or assistance.
• Vehicle exhaust contains carbon
monoxide, a dangerous gas. Do not
run your vehicle in the garage while
programming the transceiver.
Exhaust gas can cause serious injury
or death.
Radio Frequency Transmitter -
Regulatory Information The “Regulatory Information” for all
the radio and radar frequency devices
can be consulted by accessing theUnderstanding the Vehicle

“Services” section on the website
www.maserati.com.
Before You Start Programming
HomeLink ®
Be sure that your vehicle is parked
outside of the garage before you
begin programming.
For more efficient programming and
accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency signal it is
recommended that a new battery be
placed in the hand-held transmitter of
the device that is being programmed
to the HomeLink ®
system.
Before starting programming it is
necessary to erase the standard codes
memorized on the HomeLink ®
device
during the production phase. To erase
such codes:
• place the ignition device in the RUN
position without starting the engine;
• press and hold the two outside
HomeLink ®
buttons (I and III) until
the indicator light starts flashing
(after approximately 20 seconds);
• release the buttons. NOTE:
• Erasing the standard codes should
only be performed when
programming HomeLink ®
for the
first time. Do not perform this
operation to program additional
buttons.
• If you have any problems, or require
assistance, please call toll-free
1–800–355–3515 or, on the Internet
at www.HomeLink.com for
information or assistance.
System with Devices Provided
with Rolling Codes Programming the Hand-held
Transmitters
Programming garage door/gate
openers that were manufactured after
1995.
These devices can be identified by the
“LEARN” or “TRAIN” setting button located where the hanging antenna is
attached to the garage door/gate
opener. It is NOT the button that is
normally used to open and close the
door.
The name and color of the button may
vary by manufacturer.
• Place the ignition device to the RUN
position without starting the engine.
• Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to
3 inches (5 - 30 cm) away from the
HomeLink ®
button you wish to
program.
• Simultaneously press the Homelink ®
button you want to program and
the hand-held transmitter button.
• Release immediately the Homelink ®
button you want to program.
• Continue holding the hand-held
transmitter button until the
indicator light starts flashing quickly;
then release the button.
The quick flashing light indicates that
the channel with the new frequency
has been acquired and programmed
correctly by the HomeLink ®
system.Understanding the Vehicle

139
NOTE:
The distance necessary between the
portable hand-held transmitter and
the HomeLink ®
in the vehicle depends
on the system you wish to program.
Probably it will be necessary to try
several times. Upon every attempt,
keep the setting position for at least
15 seconds before trying again.
Synchronizing the Rolling Codes
At the end of the previously-described
programming, if the HomeLink ®
has
been programmed for a rolling code
system, it will be necessary to
synchronize it to ensure its correct
operation.
• Locate the “LEARN” or “TRAINING”
setting button of the opening motor.
Firmly press it and then release it. On
some garage door openers/devices
there may be a light that blinks
when the garage door opener/device
is in the LEARN/TRAIN mode.
NOTE:
You have 30 seconds to initiate the
next step after the setting button has
been pressed. • Return to the vehicle and press the
programmed HomeLink ®
button for
two seconds and then release it.
• Repeat this operation a second time.
If the garage door opening device
activates, the programming/
synchronization phase is complete.
NOTE:
If the garage door opening device
does not activate, press the button a
third time for two seconds and then
release it to complete the
programming/synchronization phase.
• To program the remaining two
HomeLink ®
buttons, repeat each step
for each remaining button. DO NOT
erase the channels.
Reprogramming a Single HomeLink ®
Button
To reprogram a channel that has been
previously trained, follow these steps:
• Place the ignition device to the RUN
position without starting the engine.
• Press and hold the desired
HomeLink ®
button.
• Without releasing the button
proceed with “Programming the
hand-held transmitters” from second
step and follow all remaining steps. System with Devices Without
Rolling Code Programming the Hand-held
Transmitters

• Turn the ignition device to the RUN
position without starting the engine.
• Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to
3 inches (5 to 30 cm) away from the
HomeLink ®
button you wish to
program.
• Simultaneously press and hold both
buttons until the indicator light
starts flashing quickly; then release
both buttons.
The quick flashing light indicates that
the channel with the new frequency
has been acquired and programmed
correctly by the HomeLink ®
system.
NOTE:
The distance necessary between the
portable hand-held transmitter and
the HomeLink ®
in the vehicle depends
on the system you wish to program.

several times. Upon every attempt,
keep the setting position for at least
15 seconds before trying again.Understanding the Vehicle

• Press and hold the programmed
HomeLink ®
button.
If the garage door opener/device
activates, programming is complete.
To program the remaining two
HomeLink ®
buttons, repeat each step
for each remaining button. Do not
erase the channels.
Reprogramming a Single HomeLink ®
Button
To reprogram a channel that has been
previously trained, follow these steps:
• Place the ignition device to the RUN
position without starting the engine.
• Press and hold the desired
HomeLink ®
button.
• Without releasing the button
proceed with “Programming the
hand-held transmitters” from second
step and follow all remaining steps.
Using HomeLink ®
To operate, press and release the
programmed HomeLink ®
button.
Activation will now occur for the
programmed device (i.e., garage door
opener, gate operator, security system,
entry door lock, home/office lighting,
etc.). The hand-held transmitter of the
device may also be used at any time. Security It is advisable to erase all channels
before you sell or turn in your vehicle.
To erase the channels press and hold
the two outside HomeLink ®
buttons (I
and III) until the indicator light starts
flashing (after approximately 20
seconds).
The HomeLink ®
Universal Transceiver
is disabled when the vehicle security
alarm is active (see “Vehicle security
alarm” in section “Before Starting”).
Troubleshooting Tips If you are having trouble while
programming HomeLink ®
, here are
some of the most common solutions:
• Replace the battery in the original
hand-held transmitter.
• Press the LEARN button on the
garage door opener to complete the
training for a rolling code.
• Did you unplug the device for
programming and forgot to plug it
back in?
