SmartBeam™ System (for
versions/markets, where
provided) The SmartBeam™ system provides
increased forward lighting for a more
comfortable and secure driving
experience without resulting in glare
to other vehicles in certain traffic
situations. The SmartBeam™ system
uses a forward facing digital camera,
located on the windshield behind the
internal rear-view mirror, and an
electronical headlights controller in
order to dynamically adapt the front
light distribution according to the
traffic scenario.
The digital camera works like a human
eye, it is able to see which is the traffic
context while the headlight electronic
controller works like a human brain,
using information from the camera to
command an headlight reaction that
gives to the driver the “best” light
distribution (best is always in reference
to the specific traffic environment).
The camera gives information to the
electronical headlight controller about
environmental brightness, traffic
participants vehicle and obstacles
lights, distances and velocities. Using a
proper combination of all these data
the smart beam system is able to dynamically modify the light shape
produced by the dipped beam and by
the full beam as well, to make the
driver visibility as much comfortable as
possible in every condition without
glaring other traffic participants.
System Limitations
There are some cases in which the
SmartBeam TM
system may not function
properly temporarily, and cause
glaring for other vehicles especially
with “Auto High Beam Assist” feature
activated on MTC+ “Controls” page
(see “MTC+ “Controls” Screen” in
section "Dashboard Instruments and
Controls").
These cases could be related to:
• Vehicles headlight and/or rear light
(one or both of them) not visible in
the field of view of the camera.
• Heavy rainy weather.
• Heavy foggy weather.
• Snowing weather.
• Windshield dirt or impurities in
camera lens zone.
• Camera lens obstruction or logging.
In all these cases, it will be the driver’s
responsibility to avoid this glaring by
acting manually on the system,
switching off the high beam by means
of steering wheel multifunction lever. Daytime Running Lights (DRL) The lighting system uses the same high
or low intensity headlamps LED,
respectively, for the DRL lights and
front position lights.
DRL lights will turn on when the
twilight sensor is in “DAY” mode, the
engine is running and the light switch
is in
or “AUTO” position.
If a turn signal is activated, the DRL
LED on the same side of the vehicle
will turn off for the duration of the
turn signal activation. Once the turn
signal is deactivated, the DRL LED will
light up again.
NOTE:
On Canadian vehicles DRL are always
on. On USA vehicles the DRL lights can
be turned on and off using the MTC+
System, see “MTC+ Settings” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and Controls”
for further information.Understanding the Vehicle

the dome lights switch on
automatically and remain lit for
approx. 15 minutes. NOTE:
The controls of the sunroof and the
HomeLink and the button to switch
off Park Assist system can be found on
the front dome console.
A light is available on the roof, under
the sun visors; it turns on when user
moves the courtesy mirror cover,
which is built in the back of sun visor.
Apart the lights on the front dome
console, there is a light with relevant
on/off switch located next to the
passenger handholds for the external
rear seats. These lights will operate
only when the ignition device is in the
ACC or RUN position. Button to Switch off Passenger
Compartment Lights
In addition to specific switches to turn
on and off the front and rear side
dome lights as previously described,
on the front console there is a button
that allows to turn off and on all these
lights.

iPad Holder (Genuine
Accessories) The Authorized Maserati Dealer can
provide you with all information
about the “Maserati iPad Holder” to
be fixed to the slide rods of the front
head restraints, available in the
“Genuine Accessories” range.
Cargo Area WARNING!
To help protect against personal
injury, passengers must not be seated
in the rear cargo area. The rear cargo
space is intended for load carrying
purposes only, not for passengers,
who should sit in seats and use seat
belts.
Vehicle Load Carrying Capacity The load carrying capacity of your
vehicle is shown on the vehicle
emission control label positioned on
the rear driver door's ledge.
The information indicated on the label
concerns passengers and luggage
loading operations. Do not exceed the specified Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or the
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR),
both front and rear.
The GVWR is the total allowable
weight of your vehicle. This includes
driver, passengers, and cargo.
The total load must be limited so that
you do not exceed the GVWR
indicated on the label.
WARNING!
• Improper weight distribution can
have an adverse effect on the way
the vehicle steers, handles and the
way the brakes operate.
• Never drive with the liftgate open.
Exhaust gases can enter the
passenger compartment.
• Do not arrange any luggage on
cargo area cover. In said position
luggage could not only impair
driver's view but also, in case of
collision or unexpected stop, it could
cause injury to all occupants.
The trunk is the most suitable place to
load
bulky and heavy
objects onboard
the vehicle. The maximum allowable
load on the floor of the trunk is 440 lb
(200 kg).Understanding the Vehicle

Front to Back Roof Rails
(optional) The front to back roof rails that can be
installed to this vehicle have been
designed to carry luggage or
equipment suitable for transport
outside of the vehicle.
Weight of luggage/equipment carried
on the rails must not exceed 176 lb
(80 kg) and must be evenly
distributed. This weight must be
added to the load carried inside of the
vehicle as well as the passengers'
weight, and total must not exceed the
maximum allowed weight (see
“Features and Specifications” in
section “Features and Specifications”).
When arranging load on rails, make
sure that it will not interfere with
power liftgate and sunroof opening (if
equipped). Securely fasten load to rails using the
suitable retainers that can hold the
original anchorage points throughout
the trip.
When installing to rails any bicycle,
surfboard or other types of carriers
requiring cross bars, please comply
with the equipment manufacturer's
instructions to ensure proper
installation.
The Authorized Maserati Dealer can
provide you with any information
about the Maserati approved Carrying
Items, available in the "Genuine
Accessories" range.
WARNING!
• During the trip, it is recommended
to periodically check the proper
fastening of luggage or equipment
carried on the roof rails. This is to
avoid that any parts that may have
accidentally unfastened could
damage vehicle bodywork and fall
out, thereby becoming a danger for
all vehicles behind yours.
• When driving with a bulky load on
roof rails, take additional
precautions and drive at lower
speed, keeping a wider safety
distance from vehicles ahead. Indeed, a bulky and/or heavy load
carried on the roof will affect
driving behavior and steering
response since it shifts the vehicle
center of gravity to a higher
position compared to normal
conditions.
• All objects/equipment carried on the
roof and protruding beyond the
windshield, e.g. surfboard, must be
fastened to both sides of the
vehicle. Any wind blow might
suddenly increase load lift possibly
resulting in breakage and loss of
part of the carried equipment.Understanding the Vehicle

Warning and Indicator Lights
on Analog Instruments Telltales on Speedometer
The following telltales are displayed
on the speedometer, and related
messages are visible for 5 seconds on
the central sector of the display, unless
otherwise indicated (see “TFT Display:
Warning/Indicator Lights of Set
Modes/Functions” paragraph in this
chapter).
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) is part of an
onboard diagnostic system
that monitors engine and
automatic transmission control
systems.
Under normal conditions, this
indicator light should switch on when
the ignition switch is in RUN position and switch off soon after the engine is
started (the MIL does not shut off
immediately).
This is a sign of the indicator light
working properly. If the indicator
remains illuminated or switches on
while driving, there is a failure in the
fuel supply/ignition and emission
control systems.
The failure could cause high exhaust
emissions, loss of performance, poor
vehicle handling and high
consumption levels.
Should this occur, proceed with
caution to your Authorized Maserati
Dealer without heavy throttle
application or driving at high speeds.
Obey all applicable local traffic
regulations.
The indicator light will go out if the
problem is no longer present.
The error will be registered by the
system in any case.
CAUTION!
• When the ignition switch is in the
RUN position and if the indicator
light does not switch on or if it
switches on while driving, contact an
Authorized Maserati Dealer as soon
as possible. • Prolonged driving with the MIL on
could cause damage to the engine
control system. It also could affect
fuel economy and drivability. If the
MIL is flashing, severe catalytic
converter damage and power loss
will soon occur. Immediate service is
required. In addition, the OBDII
system incorporates a diagnostic
connector that can be interfaced
using diagnostic equipment. This
makes it possible to read the error
codes stored in the control unit,
together with a set of specific
parameters for the engine operation
diagnostic cycle, for compliance with
CARB & EPA OBDII regulations.
Left Turn Signal Indicator Light
The
indicator lights up when
the left turn signals or the
hazard flashers are turned on.
The indicator light will flash at
the same frequency of the turn signals
and is controlled by the multifunction
lever behind the steering wheel.
If the vehicle electronics sense that the
vehicle drives for more than 1 mile
(1.6 km) with either turn signal on, a
continuous sound will alert the driver
to turn the signal off.Dashboard Instruments and Controls
