2019 MASERATI GRANTURISMO CONVERTIBLE airbag

When a safety belt is worn properly, it
is more likely that baby will not be
hurt in a crash. For pregnant women,
as for anyone, the key to making
safety belts effective is wearing them
properly.
WARNING!
Pregnant women must carefully
observe the above indications, as well
as local regulation concerning the use
of seat belts. Supplemental Restraint
System - Air bags This vehicle has front and side air bags
for both the driver and front
passenger as a supplement to the seat
belt restraint systems.
The driver's front air bag is mounted in
the center of the steering wheel in the
area shown in the picture. The word
“AIRBAG” is embossed on this area for
easier recognition.
The passenger's front air bag is
mounted in the dashboard, above the
glove compartment in the area shown
in the picture. The word “AIRBAG” is
embossed on this area for easier
recognition.
This vehicle is also equipped with side
air bag for driver and passenger
chest-head protection during a side impact. The side air bags are mounted
in the front seat backrests.
The word “AIRBAG” is embossed on
this area for easier recognition.
NOTE:
After any accident, the vehicle should
be taken to an Authorized Maserati
Dealer immediately.
Air bag System Components Your vehicle is equipped with the
following air bag system components:
• Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC).
• Driver and passenger front air bag.
• Pretensioner for front seat belts.
• Driver and passenger side bag.
• Front and side impact sensors.
• Air bag system failure warning light.
• Diagnostic socket.
• Fuel cut-out inertia switch.Before Starting

In the event of a side impact, the
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)
processes the signals coming from side
sensors and activates air bag
deployment when necessary.
The air bag deploys almost
instantaneously, placing itself between
the occupants and the side of the
vehicle. The air bag deflates
immediately afterward.
In the case of low-severity side
collisions (for which the restraining
action of the seat belts provides
adequate protection), the air bags do
not deploy.
The side air bags are not a substitute
of the seat belts but rather act in
combination with them. As a
consequence, the seat belts must
always be worn as provided for by
applicable legislation in Europe and in
most non-European countries.
WARNING!
• If the
warning light comes on
while driving (fault signal), stop the
vehicle and contact an Authorized
Maserati Dealer to have the system
checked.
• In the event of a collision with
consequent air bag deployment, contact an Authorized Maserati
Dealer for replacement of the entire
safety system, Occupant Restraint
Controller (ORC), seat belts,
pretensioners, and to have the
vehicle electrical system checked.
• Any and all inspections, repairs and
replacements regarding the air bag
must be performed by an Authorized
Maserati Dealer.
NOTE:
• T
o scrap the vehicle, please contact
an Authorized Maserati Dealer in
order to have the air bag system
deactivated.
• If the vehicle is sold, the new owners
must read the above described
instructions for use and warnings on
this “Owner’s Manual” that is an
integral part of the car.
Occupant Restraint Controller
(ORC) The Occupant Restraint Controller
(ORC) determines if deployment of the
front air bags and/or side air bags in a
frontal or side collision is required.
Based on the impact sensor's signals,
the central electronic ORC deploys the
front air bags, the side air bags and seat belt pretensioners, as required,
depending on the severity and type of
impact.
The ORC monitors the readiness of the
electronic parts of the air bag system
whenever the key in the ignition
switch is in the MAR (ON) position. If
the key is in the STOP (OFF) position,
in the ACC position, or not active, the
air bag system is not activated and the
air bags will not inflate.
The ORC contains a backup power
supply system that may deploy the air
bags even if the battery has low power
or it becomes disconnected prior to
deployment. When starting the
vehicle, ORC turns on the
air bag
warning light on the instrument
cluster for approximately 4 to 8
seconds for a test.
After the test, the
air bag warning
light will turn off. If the ORC, during
the diagnosis phase detects a
malfunction that could affect the air
bag system, it turns on the
air bag
warning light and the “Airbag failure
go to dealer” message either
momentarily or continuously. The
diagnostics also record the nature of
the malfunction. A beep will sound if
the
air bag warning light
illuminates again after initial startup.Before Starting
