Refueling Fuel Filler Neck Access The fuel filler door is found on the
rear, left-hand side of the vehicle.
To open the fuel filler door, press
button on the left control panel next
to the steering wheel.
It can be operated only when the key
is removed from the ignition switch or
turned to STOP (OFF) position.
Refill the Tank The fuel filler neck is provided with
external cap.
• Rotate counterclockwise and remove
the fuel filler cap. The cap hermetic
seal may result in a slight pressure
increase inside the tank. Any hissing
noise while the cap is being opened
is therefore completely normal. The cap is linked to the filler neck with a
strap, to prevent it from being lost
while refueling.
• When refueling, the cap must remain
attached to the door by means of the
hook provided.
• Insert the fuel nozzle fully into the
filler. WARNING!
• To avoid the risk of fire, do not
approach the filler with open flames
or cigarettes!
• To avoid the risk of inhaling noxious
fumes, do not breathe close to the
fuel filler door, when opened.
• Never have any smoking materials lit
in or near the vehicle when the fuel
filler door is open or the tank is
being filled.
• Never add fuel when the engine is
running. This violates most
fire-prevention regulations and may
cause the
Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) to turn on (see
“Instrument Cluster” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
• Fill the vehicle with fuel. Fuel tank
capacity
is indicated in the
“Refillings” table in section
“Features and Specifications”.
When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or
shuts off, the fuel tank is basically
full: it is possible to further ensure
refueling by enabling the fuel nozzle
additional fuel supply until two
clicks. After the two additional clicks,Driving

Tool Kit The tool bag and other first aid
equipment are located in the trunk
compartment and are available by
lifting the floor panel.
The tools in the bag are the following:
•8+10mm open end wrench;
• 13 + 17 mm open end wrench;
• double flat + cross-head screwdriver;
• tow hook;
• tool for electric parking brake
actuator release. Hazard Warning Flashers The hazard warning flashers switch is
located in the central console under
the A/C controls.
Press the switch to turn on the hazard
warning flashers to warn oncoming
traffic of an emergency. When these
lights illuminate, the turn signals, the
related indicator lights on the
instrument cluster and the button start
flashing.
Press the switch a second time to turn
off the hazard warning flashers.
Hazard warning flashers operation
does not depend on the position of
the key in the ignition switch.
This is an emergency warning system
and it should not be used when the
vehicle is in motion. Use it when your
vehicle is disabled and it is creating a
safety hazard for other motorists.
When you must leave the vehicle to
seek assistance, the hazard warning
flashers will continue to operate even
though the key has been removed
from the ignition switch.
CAUTION!
• When the hazard warning flashers
are activated, the turn signals
control is disabled. • The extended use of the hazard
warning flashers may wear down
your battery.

Engine Overheating To reduce potentially overheating of
the engine in city traffic, while
stationary, place the transmission in N
(Neutral), but do not increase the
engine idle speed.
NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to
slow down an impending overheat
condition:
• If your air conditioner (A/C) is on,
turn it off. The A/C system adds heat
to the engine cooling system and
turning the A/C off can help remove
this heat.
• You can also turn the temperature
control to maximum heat, the mode
control to floor and the blower
control to high. This allows the
heater core to act as a supplement to
the radiator and aids in removing
heat from the engine cooling system.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system
could damage the engine. If the
temperature gauge is positioned on
the red zone (refer to “Instrument
Cluster” in section “Dashboard Instruments and Controls”), pull over
and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle
with the air conditioner turned off
until the temperature gauge drops
back into the normal range. If the
temperature gauge remains on the red
zone turn the engine off immediately
and contact the Authorized Maserati
Dealer .
WARNING!
You or others can be badly burned by
hot engine coolant (antifreeze) or
steam from your radiator. If you see or
hear steam coming from under the
hood, do not open it until the radiator
has had time to cool.
Never try to open a coolant bottle
pressure cap (refer to “Maintenance
Procedures” in section “Maintenance
and Care”) when the radiator is
overheated. In case of a Punctured Tire The vehicle can be equipped with a
tire repair kit or with a compact spare
wheel.
Using Tire Repair Kit Small punctures up to 1⁄4” (6 mm) in
the tire tread can be sealed using the
tire repair kit, fitted beneath the floor
panel of the trunk compartment.
The kit comes in a bag and consists of
two parts:
• an electric compressor with pressure
gage, hose to be connected to the
punctured tire and power cable;
• a gas cylinder containing sealant.

Position and release the parking
brake (see “ Transmission Manual
Release of P (Park) position” and
“Emergency Release of the Parking
Brake” in this section).
• If the vehicle battery is still charged ,
turn off the engine and disengage
the parking brake manually (if
automatically engaged) by using the
command at the side of the
transmission shift lever (see “Parking
Brake” chapter in section “Driving”).
Shift then manually the transmission
out of P (Park) as described in
“Transmission Manual Release of P
(Park) Position” chapter of this
section. If you need to use the
accessories (wipers, defrosters, etc.)
while being towed, the key in the
ignition switch must be turned in
MAR (ON) position, do not use the
ACC position.
Vehicle Towing Conditions Maserati only allows vehicle towing
either on a flatbed or with all four
wheels off the ground.
If flatbed equipment is not available,
and the transmission is still operable,
the vehicle may be flat towed (with all
four wheels on the ground) under the
following conditions. • The shift lever must be in N
(Neutral).
• The distance to be traveled must not
exceed 30 mi (50 km ).
• The towing speed must not exceed
30 mph (50 km/h).
If the transmission is not operable, or
the vehicle must be towed faster than
30 mph (50 km/h ) or farther than 30
mi (50 km) (for example on a
highway), tow with the rear driving
wheels off the ground and on a
platform of a rescue vehicle, or with
the rear wheels raised using a wheel
lift.
CAUTION!
If you have to tow the vehicle with 2
wheels raised, ensure that the key in
the ignition switch is in the STOP (OFF)
position. If this is not observed, when
the ESC is active, the ECU will store a
malfunction and the relative indicator
light
will illuminate on the
instrument cluster display. This
requires the intervention of an
Authorized Maserati Dealer to reset
the system. Use the Vehicle Tow Hook of
the Tool Kit CAUTION!
The tow hook should only be used for
towing the car on flat roads. Do not
use the tow hook to remove the car
that is stuck on off road stretches.
The tow hook can also be used to tow
the
vehicle on the platform of a tow
truck.
It is necessary to inform the operators
of the rescue vehicle about the vehicle
minimum height to avoid, during its
loading, any contact of the lower ends
of the front or rear bumper with the
tow truck loading ramp.
The tow hook is contained in the tool
kit (see “Tool Kit” in this section) and
must be screwed in its seat accessible
behind the front grille, right-hand
side.
• Remove the protective cap by
levering with the tip of a screwdriver
in the point shown in picture.In 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!
