2019 MASERATI GRANTURISMO Order

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.
NOTE:
For
the tire repair procedures with tire
repair kit see instructions included in
the kit.
This kit will provide a temporary tire
seal, allowing you to drive your
vehicle up to 6 miles (10 km) with a
maximum speed of 50 mph (80 km/h).
CAUTION!
• Intruding objects (e.g., screws or
nails) should not be removed from
the tire, which could compromise
the repair with the tire repair kit.
• Do not use the tire repair kit if the
tire shows lateral damages and/or the rim is damaged by driving with
flat tire.
• Tire repair kit can be used in outside
temperatures down to
approximately -4°F (-20°C).
• Replace the tire repair kit sealant gas
cylinder prior to the expiration date
(printed on the gas cylinder label) to
assure optimum operation of the
system.
NOTE:
• The
compressor power plug can be
inserted either in the 12 V power
outlet housed in the trunk or inside
the passenger compartment (see
“Interior Features” in section
“Understanding the Vehicle”).
• When having the tire serviced,
advise the Authorized Maserati
Dealer or service center that the tire
has been sealed using the tire repair
kit.
Using the Compact Spare
Wheel (for versions/markets
where provided)
Upon request, the vehicle may come
equipped with a compact spare wheel
(emergency wheel), jack and tools for
replacing a wheel. The compact spare wheel is stored in
the trunk and is supplied deflated in
order to limit the amount of space
occupied. An electric compressor is
also provided for inflating. In the
event of a tire puncture, proceed as
follows.
• Stop the vehicle in a place that does
not constitute a danger to traffic
and where the wheel can be
changed safely. The vehicle must be
level and on firm ground.
• Select the P (Park) mode and then
engage manually the electric
parking brake and turn the key in
the ignition switch to STOP (OFF)
position.
• If necessary, turn the hazard warning
flashers on and place the warning
triangle at the required distance.
WARNING!
• The jack should be used on level
firm ground wherever possible.
• It is recommended that the wheels
of the vehicle be chocked, and that
no person should remain in a vehicle
that is being jacked.
• If the vehicle has been stopped on a

slope or an uneven surface, place
chocks or other suitable items in
front of or behind the wheels to
stop the vehicle from moving.
• Never start or run the engine with
the vehicle on a jack.
• No person should place any portion
of their body under a vehicle that is
supported by a jack.
• Take the bag with compact spare
wheel
and tools out of the trunk
compartment and remove it from the
bag.
• Remove from the compressor case
the inflation hose and the cable with
a plug for the power outlet.
• Unscrew the valve cap of the
compact spare wheel and screw the
fitting of the inflation hose onto the
valve. • Insert the plug in one of the
available power outlets fitted in the
trunk or passenger compartment.
• Turn the key in the ignition switch in
MAR (ON) position.
• Turn the compressor on by pressing
the switch.
• Stop the compressor pressing switch
again, when the pressure indicated
by the gage reaches the
recommended level (see “Tire
Inflation Pressure” in section
“Features and Specifications”) and
screw the cap on the compact spare
wheel valve.
CAUTION!
• In order to obtain a more accurate
reading, the compressor should be
switched off when checking the tire pressure of the compact spare wheel
on the pressure gage.
• Do not run the compressor for more
than 20 minutes: there is a risk it
could overheat. Also, prolonged
power absorption may discharge the
battery, subsequently preventing the
engine from starting.
• The compressor has been designed
exclusively to inflate compact spare
wheels; do not use it to inflate air
mattresses, dinghies etc.
• Fit the adapter on the wrench.
Extend
the wrench as shown, then
loosen by approximately one turn,

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.

Auxiliary Jump-Start
Procedure If your vehicle has a discharged battery
it can be jump-started using a set of
jumper cables and a battery of another
vehicle or by using a portable battery
booster. It is necessary to have proper
jumper cables in order to connect the
booster battery to the remote posts of
the discharged battery. Booster cables
have usually positive and negative
terminal clamps and are identified by a
different sheath color (red = positive,
black = negative). Maserati provides
on request jumper cables created for
its models and content in a practical
case.
NOTE:
The Authorized Maserati Dealer can
provide you with information about
the “Maserati Jumper Cables Kit”,
available in the “Genuine Accessories”
range.
Jump-starting can be dangerous if
done improperly so please follow the
procedures in this section carefully. NOTE:
When using a portable battery booster
pack, follow the battery
manufacturer’s operating instructions
and precautions.
CAUTION!
• To jump start a vehicle do not use a
portable battery, a booster pack or
any other booster source with a
system voltage greater than 14 Volts
or damage to the battery, starter
motor, alternator or electrical system
of the vehicle with the discharged
battery may occur.
• Do not use a battery charger for
emergency starting under any
circumstances. You could damage the
electronic systems, particularly the
control units managing the ignition
and fuel supply functions.
• If the battery is completely
discharged when the windows are
fully raised, open the door with the
utmost care; do not close the door
again until it is possible to lower the
window. WARNING!
• Using booster packs that have not
been checked, which could therefore
release a too high charging voltage
(higher than 14 V), in extreme
environmental conditions (for
example: closed areas or without
proper ventilation and temperatures
higher than 122°F/50°C or lower
than -4°F/-20°C) create the right
conditions for ignition which could
then cause the battery to explode.
Therefore you shall always perform
jump-starting operations using the
adequate tools and in the best
environmental conditions, taking all
necessary precautions.
• Do not attempt jump-starting if the
discharged battery is frozen. It could
rupture or explode during jump start
and cause personal injury.
• Do not carry out this procedure if
you have not done it before:
incorrect maneuvers can originate
high electrical discharges and even
cause the battery to explode.
• To avoid the risk of explosion or fire,
do not approach the battery withIn an Emergency

• Carefully clean the threaded seat
before screwing the hook.
• Screw the tow hook into its seat for
at least 11 turns.
NOTE:
Maximum work angle of towing cable
or bar: 15°. Fuel Cut-out Inertia Switch The vehicle is equipped with a safety
switch which activates in the event of
a collision, cutting off the fuel supply
and consequently causing the engine
to stop. It also prevents fuel spreading
if the fuel lines are damaged during
the accident.
Activation of the safety switch is
signaled by the illumination of the
warning light on the instrument
cluster display.
The switch is positioned underneath
the driver seat.
In order to operate the inertia switch,
lift the seat in the highest position.
WARNING!
After a collision, if you smell fuel or
note any leakage from the fuel supply
system, do not reactivate the switch in
order to prevent any fire risks.
The activation of the inertia switch
causes
all the doors and the trunk lid
to unlock, the lighting of the internal
domelight and the hazard warning
flashers. WARNING!

Always use washer fluid when using
the wipers to remove salt or dirt from
a dry windshield.
Avoid using the wiper blades to
remove frost or ice from the
windshield. Keep the blade rubber out
of contact with petroleum products
such as engine oil, gasoline, etc.
Spray nozzles
If the jet does not work, first check
that there is fluid in the pan (see
paragraph “Level checks” in this
section) then check that the nozzles
are not clogged.
Blades Replacement
• Move the right multifunction lever
into “OFF” position, (see chapter
“Windshield Wipers and Washers” in
section “Understanding the
Vehicle”).
• Lift the end of the arm provided with
the blade from the windshield.
• Rotate the blade on the arm in order
to access the release latch, shown in
the detail of picture.
• Press the release latch to free the
blade.
• Turn and slip off the blade from the
arm and replace it. • Return the blade to its original
position on the windshield.
NOTE:
Due to the difficulty of this operation,
we recommend that you contact an
Authorized Maserati Dealer for
replacement of the blades.
Body Lubrication
Locks and all body pivot points,
including such items as seat tracks,
door hinge pivot points and rollers,
trunk lid and hood, sliding doors and
hood hinges, should be lubricated
periodically with a lithium based
grease, to assure quiet, easy operation
and to protect against rust and wear.
Prior to the application of any
lubricant, the parts concerned should
be wiped clean to remove dust and
grit; after lubricating excess oil and grease should be removed. Particular
attention should also be given to hood
latching components to ensure proper
function. When performing other
underhood services, the hood latch,
release mechanism and safety catch
should be cleaned and lubricated. The
coupling pin of the lock on the rear
driver door pillar should be lubricated
twice a year, preferably in the Fall and
Spring. Apply a small amount of high
quality lubricant directly into the lock
cylinder.Maintenance and Care

pole (–) of the battery.
If the battery needs to be removed
from
its compartment, you must first
detach the terminal clamp from
negative pole (–) and then the other
terminal clamp from positive pole (+),
after removing the protective cover.
Battery poles are marked positive (+)
and negative (–) and are identified on
the battery case.
Remove the metal clamp indicated in
the picture and then remove the
battery from the trunk compartment. To Reconnect the Battery NOTE:
When the battery cables have been
disconnected and the trunk lid has
been locked, it is necessary to pull the
emergency release cable in order to
re-open it. To access the trunk and
operate the emergency release (see
“Open and Close the Trunk Lid”
chapter in section “Before Starting”).
CAUTION!
• It is essential when replacing the
cables on the battery that the
positive cable is precisely attached to
the positive pole (+) and the
negative cable is attached to the
negative pole (–).
• Cable clamps should be tight on the
terminal poles and free of corrosion.
After the battery has been
disconnected
and re-connected and
before starting the engine it is
necessary to proceed as follows:
• Unlock and lock the doors using the
radio control buttons on the key.
• Unlock the trunk lid with the radio
control button on the key and then
lock it manually. • Check the seats are working
correctly: in the event of
malfunction, carry out the
initialization operations described in
the chapter “Front Seats” of the
section “Understanding the Vehicle”.
• Initialize the climate control system
by activating the compressor as
described in chapter "Air
Conditioning Controls" of the section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”.
• Turn on the MTC+ and set the date
and time (see “MTC+ Setting” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
• Lift, release and lift again the lever
located next the shift lever to
initialize the electric parking brakes.
