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.
