Pneumatic Suspension Mode
for Wheel Change The pneumatic suspension system is
equipped with a specific mode to be
used when vehicle must be lifted to
change one or several wheels/tires.
This mode temporarily disables
pneumatic suspension automatic
leveling.
To activate this mode, scroll user
settings on MTC+ and select “Wheel
Replacement Mode” in submenu
“Suspension”. The tick next to
selected item will indicate that this
mode is active and system is disabled
(for further details, refer to chapter
“MTC+ Settings” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”). After servicing, restore original
conditions and eliminate the tick next
to selected mode: in this way the
pneumatic suspension system will go
back to normal operation.
Compact Spare Tire The limited-use spare tire, or compact
spare tire, is for temporary emergency
use only.
This tire is identified by a label
indicating the driving speed
limitations to comply with when using
the spare tire.
Inflate the spare tire to the cold
inflation pressure listed on the table
“Tire Inflation Pressure” in section
“Features and Specifications”.
Mounting the spare tire affects vehicle
handling. Replace (or repair) as soon
as possible the original equipment tire
and reinstall it on the vehicle. Do not
install more than one compact spare
tire and wheel on the vehicle at a
time.
WARNING!
With these compact spare tires, do not
drive more than 50 mph (80 km/h).
Temporary use spares have limited
tread life.Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) The Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) will warn the driver of a low
tire pressure according to the vehicle
recommended cold pressure indicated
on the table “Tire Inflation Pressure”
in section “Features and
Specifications” and on the label
applied on the driver's side rear door
pillar.
Tire pressure should always be set
based on cold inflation tire pressure.
The cold tire inflation pressure must
not exceed the maximum inflation
pressure molded into the tire sidewall.
Check “Tires – General Information” in
section “Driving” for information on
how to properly inflate the tires.
The tire pressure will also increase as
the vehicle is driven - this is normal
and there is no adjustment required
when this occurs.
The TPMS will warn the driver of a low
tire pressure if the tire pressure falls
below the low-pressure warning limit
for any reason, including low
temperature effects and natural
pressure loss of the tire.
The TPMS will continue to warn the
driver of low tire pressure as long as
the condition persists and will not turnDriving

Fuel Requirements The engines are designed to meet all
environmental regulations and provide
excellent fuel economy and
performance when using unleaded
premium gasoline with an AKI octane
rating of 91 or above. AKI (Anti Knock
Index) is an average on the Research
Octane Number, RON, and the Motor
Octane Number, MON (RON + MON/2
gives you the AKI).
For vehicle top performance, use
unleaded premium gasoline with no
less than 93 minimum AKI octane
rating.
Poor quality gasoline can cause
problems such as hard starting,
stalling, and hesitations. If you
experience these symptoms, try
another brand of gasoline before
considering service for the vehicle at
an Authorized Maserati Dealer .
Besides using unleaded gasoline with
the proper octane rating, gasoline that
contain detergents, anti-corrosion and
stability additives are recommended.
Using gasoline that have these
additives may help improve fuel
economy, reduce emissions, and
maintain vehicle performance. CAUTION!
• Maserati strongly recommends the
use of Premium unleaded fuel ONLY.
Use of lesser grade fuel (other than
Premium) will lead to reduced
engine performance, and poor fuel
economy and can lead to the
Malfunction Indicator Light
illuminating on the instrument
cluster. Continued use of lesser grade
fuel (other than Premium fuel) can
lead to engine misfire problems and
possible catalytic converter damage.
• The anti-pollution devices of the
vehicle require unleaded fuel to be
used at all times. Under no
circumstance, not even in an
emergency, should leaded fuel be
supplied to the fuel tank, not even a
minimum quantity. This would
irreparably damage the catalytic
converters. An inefficient catalytic
converter results in noxious exhaust
emissions which damage the
environment.
Reformulated Gasoline Many areas of the country require the
use of cleaner burning gasoline,
referred to as “Reformulated Gasoline”. Reformulated gasoline
contains oxygenates and are
specifically blended to reduce vehicle
emissions and improve air quality.
Maserati supports the use of
reformulated gasoline. Properly
blended reformulated gasoline will
provide excellent performance and
durability of engine and fuel system
components.
Gasoline/Oxygenate Blends Some fuel suppliers blend unleaded
gasoline with oxygenates such as
Ethanol. Fuels blended with
oxygenates may be used in your
vehicle.
CAUTION!
DO NOT use gasoline containing
Methanol or gasoline containing more
than 10% Ethanol. Use of these blends
may result in starting and driveability
problems, damage critical fuel system
components, cause emissions to exceed
the applicable standard, and/or cause
the Malfunction Indicator Light
to
illuminate (see “Instrument Cluster” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”. Pump labels should clearly
communicate if a fuel contains greaterDriving

• 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
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,
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 filler door.
CAUTION!
To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling,
do not “top off” the fuel tank after
filling.
Emergency Refueling Funnel
A
funnel is provided (in the trunk in
the tool box container) for emergency
refueling with a gas can. WARNING!
A fire may result if fuel is pumped
into a portable container that is inside
of a vehicle. You could be burned.
Always place gas containers outside
the vehicle while filling.Driving

• 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
