Normal Starting of the
Engine WARNING!
It is dangerous to run the engine in an
enclosed area. The engine consumes
oxygen and discharges carbon
dioxide, carbon monoxide and other
toxic gases in the atmosphere.
WARNING!
California Proposition 65
Operating, servicing and maintaining
a passenger vehicle or off-road vehicle
can expose you to chemicals including
such as, engine exhaust, carbon
monoxide, phthalates and lead, that
which are know to the State of
California to cause cancer and birth
defects or other reproductive harm. To
minimize exposure, avoid breathing
exhaust, do not idle the engine except
as necessary, service your vehicle in a
well-ventilated area and wear gloves
or wash your hands frequently when
servicing your vehicle. For more
information go to: www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/passenger-
vehicle
When you open a door to get into the
car
, the instrument cluster turns on.
The TFT displays the complete
odometer, time, outside temperature
and the
open doors indicator.
Before starting the engine, close the
doors, adjust your seat, the inside and
outside mirrors, fasten your seat belt
and instruct all other occupants to
buckle their seat belts.
Make sure that the Electric Parking
Brake (EPB) is applied.
The shift lever must be in P (Park) or N
(Neutral) position before you can start
the engine. Apply the brakes before
shifting into any driving gear (see
“Automatic Transmission” in this
section).
CAUTION!
• Before starting the engine, switch off
the electrical devices with a high
power consumption (air-conditioning
and heating system, heated rear
window, headlights, etc.).
• Do not start the engine if the fuel
level in the tank is low. Press the brake pedal and turn the key
in
the ignition switch to MAR (ON)
position.
Instrument cluster displays the initial
sequence with warning light and
analog instruments test routine.
Turn the key into AVV position and
release it when the engine starts. The
key will return to MAR (ON) position
automatically.
Do not hold the key in AVV position
for a long time.
If the engine fails to start, the starter
will disengage automatically after 10
seconds. If you wish to stop the
cranking of the engine prior to
starting it, turn the key to STOP (OFF)
position.
If the engine does not start, turn the
key to STOP (OFF) position and wait
for the gear display to go off. Then
repeat the entire procedure.
NOTE:
Normal starting of either a cold or a
warm engine is obtained without
pumping or pressing the accelerator
pedal.Driving

Driving Conditions Before the Trip Check the following at regular
intervals and always before long trips:
• tire pressure and condition;
• levels of fluids and lubricants;
• conditions of the windshield wiper
blades;
• clean the glass on the external light
and all other glass surfaces;
• proper operation of the indicator
lights and of the external lights.
CAUTION!
It is however advisable to perform
these checks at least every 500 mi
(800 km) and always following the
maintenance schedule reported in
section “Maintenance and Care”.
Before you drive:
•
adjust seat position, steering wheel
and rearview mirrors in order to have
the best driving position;
• ensure that nothing (mat covers, etc.)
is obstructing the pedals movement;
• carefully arrange and secure any
objects in the trunk, to prevent them from moving forward in case of
sudden stops;
• avoid heavy meals before a trip. A
light snack helps keep your reflexes
sharp. In particular, avoid drinking
alcohol.
WARNING!
Beyond being prohibited by law, it is
extremely dangerous to ride inside the
trunk or on the hood. In the event of
an accident, passengers sitting here
are more exposed to the risk of
serious injury. Passengers must only
travel seated in the vehicle seats, with
the seat belts fastened. Always check
that the driver and all passengers
have the seat belts correctly fastened.
Safe Driving Although the vehicle is equipped with
active and passive safety devices, the
driver's conduct is always a decisive
factor for road safety.
Some simple rules for traveling safely
in different conditions are listed
below. Some of them will probably
already sound familiar but, in any case,
it would be useful to read them
carefully. Driving at Night
The main guidelines to follow when
driving at night are set out below.
• Drive carefully. Night conditions
demand more focus and attention.
• 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 theDriving

In the Event of an
Accident It is important always to keep calm.
• If not directly involved, stop at a safe
distance of at least 10 yards away
from the accident area.
• If on a highway, stop without
obstructing the emergency lane and
be especially careful if you need to
exit the vehicle.
• Turn off the engine and switch on
the hazard warning flashers.
• At night, illuminate the accident
area with the headlights.
• Always act with caution to avoid the
risk of being crashed into by other
drivers.
• Indicate that an accident has
occurred by placing the emergency
triangle (if equipped) in a well
visible position and at the prescribed
distance.
• Call the emergency services,
providing as much information as
possible. On the highway, use the
special call boxes.
• Remove the ignition key (if present)
from the vehicles involved.
• If fuel or other chemical products
can be smelled, do not smoke and ask people around you to put their
cigarettes out.
• To extinguish fires, even small ones,
use a fire extinguisher, blankets,
sand or earth. Never use water.
• In multiple accidents occurred on
highways, particularly where
visibility is poor, there is a high risk
of being involved in other collisions.
Leave the vehicle immediately and
move away from the area.
In case of Injured Persons • Never leave the injured person
alone. Persons not directly involved
in the accident are also required to
give assistance.
• Do not crowd around injured
persons.
• Reassure the injured person that
help is on the way.

Adding Windshield/Headlight Washer
Fluid
The reservoir on the left side of the
engine compartment contains the
fluid to wash the windshield and
headlights.
During scheduled services or when the
message of low level of the washer
fluid appears together with the
related telltale add more fluid as
soon as possible.
The fluid reservoir may contain nearly
1.58 US gallons (6 liters) of
windshield/headlight washer fluid.
• Remove the reservoir cap in the
engine compartment and lift the
filler neck extension.
• Fill the reservoir with windshield
washer solvent (refer to “Refillings”
in section "Features and
Specifications") and operate the system for a few seconds to flush out
the residual water.
• When refilling the washer fluid
reservoir, apply some washer fluid to
a cloth or towel and wipe the wiper
blades clean. This will help blade
performance.
To prevent freeze-up of your
windshield washer system in cold
weather, select a solution or mixture
that meets or exceeds the
temperature range of your climate.
This rating information can be found
on most washer fluid containers.
NOTE:
The Authorized Maserati Dealer can
provide you with information about
the “Maserati recommended
Windshield Washer Fluid” with
antifreeze, available in the “Genuine
Accessories” range.
WARNING!
• Commercially available windshield
washer solvents are flammable.
They could ignite and burn you.
Care must be exercised when filling
or when working around the
windshield/headlight washer
system. • Do not drive with the windshield/
headlight washer reservoir empty:
the action of the washer is essential
for improving visibility when
driving.
