2019 MASERATI GRANTURISMO start stop button

If you attempt to disengage the
parking brake without having
depressed the service brake pedal, a
message will be displayed to warn
you to do so.
• The EPB command activation while
running, generates a deceleration of
the vehicle with strong deceleration
(Dynamic Braking). It is therefore
recommended to use of this feature
only in case of emergency. The
stability of the car is guaranteed by
the action of the activated ESC
system.
Deactivating Automatic
Operation To deactivate automatic operation of
the parking brake, with the engine
on, press the "PARK OFF" button on
the central console. The words “PARK OFF” appear on the
display for 5 seconds, after which they
remain displayed but in smaller size.
To reactivate automatic operation,
press the "PARK OFF" button once
again, the words “PARK ON” appear
on the display for 5 seconds.
CAUTION!
• In certain conditions when the
battery voltage is low, the electric
parking brake system may
temporarily be deactivated for safety
reasons. Therefore, typically upon
starting the engine, when the
battery voltage drops, the message
“PARK OFF” may temporarily be
displayed on the instrument cluster,
indicating that automatic operation
is temporarily disabled. • In the case of performance starting,
check that the parking brake is
disengaged.
Failure Indication In the event of electric parking brake
system failure, the
warning light
on the display will light up.
Depending on the message displayed,
it signals the following failures of the
EPB system:
• “Parking brake failure: go to dealer”
If the message warning you to go to
the nearest Authorized Maserati
Dealer is displayed, drive slowly and
remember that the electric parking
brake device is not functioning.
• “EPB is overheated”
If the vehicle has been stationary
(key in the ignition switch to STOP
(OFF) position) for about 15 minutes
without using the parking brake,
and the warning light illuminates
again after restarting the engine,
slowly drive to the nearest
Authorized Maserati Dealer .
• “EPB failure only manual unlock
allowed: see handbook”
In this case, follow the manual
emergency deactivation procedure
in order to release the parking brake
(see “Emergency Release of the Driving
5
165

the amount of fuel allowed by the
system is very low, we recommend
therefore not to persist further.
• Wait approximately 10 seconds
before removing the fuel nozzle in
order to ensure completed supply of
residual fuel and restrict the risk of
fouling the fuel filler door area.
• Remove the fuel nozzle.
• Insert the cap on the fuel filler neck.
• Tighten the cap, turning it clockwise
until it stops.
• Close the fuel tank door.
CAUTION!
To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling,
do not “top off” the fuel tank after
filling.
Emergency Fuel Filler Door
Release If you are unable to unlock the fuel
filler door using the dedicated button,
use the fuel filler door emergency
release located in the trunk.
• Open the trunk lid (see “Open and
Close the Trunk Lid” in section
“Before Starting”).
• Remove the access cover on the left
side of the trunk compartment turning the fastening screw
indicated in the picture
counterclockwise by a quarter of a
turn.
• Pull the release cable moderately to
avoid its possible break. It's not
possible to feel or hear the
unlocking of the fuel filler door
actuator.
• Then open normally the fuel filler
door. • Reassemble the access cover and lock
it by turning the fastening screw
clockwise.
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

Freeing the Stuck Vehicle If your vehicle is stuck in mud, sand, or
snow, it can probably be moved
backward and forward by a simple
rocking motion.
Steer the wheel right and left to clear
the area around the front wheels.
Shift then between D (Drive) or
MANUAL mode and R (Reverse) (see
chapter “Automatic Transmission” and
“Drive Mode” in section “Driving”).
Shifting to MANUAL mode, try to free
the car starting in second gear.
At low speed motion of the vehicle,
you can switch quickly from D (Drive)
to R (Reverse), and vice versa, just by
pressing the release button on the
shift lever.
For more effectiveness press lightly on
the accelerator pedal in order to avoid
wheel slippage.
If unable to release the vehicle in one
of the previously described ways, enter
the low-grip driving mode, by pressing
the “ICE” button, and completely
exclude the yaw and slip control
system, by pressing the
(ESC Off)
button for at least 2 seconds. Moving
the shift lever between D (Drive) and R
(Reverse) to start. CAUTION!
Racing the engine or spinning the
drive wheels may lead to transmission
overheating and failure. Allow the
engine to idle with the shift lever in N
(Neutral) for at least one minute after
every five rocking-motion cycles. This
will minimize overheating and reduce
the risk of transmission failure during
prolonged efforts to free a stuck
vehicle.
WARNING!
Fast spinning tires can be dangerous.
Forces generated by excessive drive
wheel speeds may cause damage, or
even failure, of the drivetrain and
tires. Emergency Starting with
Maserati Code If the Maserati CODE fails to
deactivate the engine immobilizer, the
CODE warning light will illuminate
permanently, while the
MIL
warning light will go off after four
seconds and will turn on again
immediately afterward: the engine will
not start.
To start the engine, follow the
emergency starting procedure.
Emergency Starting Procedure NOTE:
We recommend that you carefully read
the entire procedure before
performing it. If you make a mistake,
turn the key in the ignition switch to
STOP (OFF) position and repeat the
operations from the first step.
