Power Outlets inside the Central
Console
To access the power outlet located
inside the glove box of the central
console you need to open the half-lids
as indicated in the following
paragraph.
Rear Power Outlets
A 12 V power outlet in the
compartment at the rear end of the
central console, is available upon
request for rear seat passengers.
To access the power outlet, push the
lid as indicated: it will open
completely. Power Outlet inside the Trunk
The power outlet is positioned on the
right side of the trunk compartment. Cupholders The vehicle is equipped with several
cupholders.
CAUTION!
• Use light and shatterproof
containers.
• Do not forcefully push unsuitable
containers into the cupholders to
prevent damage to the containers.
• Do not store hot drinks.
Cuholders for Front Passengers
The
front cupholders are located
beside the transmission lever and
within the central console.
To access the cupholder, push the cover
as shown in the picture and it will
open completely.Understanding the Vehicle

for extended periods of time: extreme
temperatures and humidity can occur
in the vehicle.
Sun Visors Sun visors can be folded to the front
and to the side of the vehicle. To move
the visor laterally, lower and release it
from its catch as indicated.
In this condition, the visor can be
extended by sliding the visor end
backward. By lowering the visor you can access
the courtesy mirror and, by sliding the
mirror protective cover, the light on
the dome will automatically light up
(with the ignition switch in RUN ).
Before raising the visor, close the
mirror cover: the light will turn off.
A business card holder is fitted inside
each sun visor. Smoking Kit (optional) The kit includes a lighter and a
removable ashtray with cover.
The Smoking kit for front seats
passengers is located inside the box
beside the transmission shift lever and
can be accessed by pressing the cover
as indicated.
The rear seat passengers can use the
removable ashtray by inserting it into

For more efficient programming and
accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency signal it is
recommended that a new battery be
placed in the hand-held transmitter of
the device that is being programmed
to the HomeLink ®
system.
Before starting programming it is
necessary to erase the standard codes
memorized on the HomeLink ®
device
during the production phase. To erase
such codes:
• place the ignition device in the RUN
position without starting the engine;
• press and hold the two outside
HomeLink ®
buttons (I and III) until
the indicator light starts flashing
(after approximately 20 seconds);
• release the buttons.
NOTE:
• Erasing the standard codes should
only be performed when
programming HomeLink ®
for the
first time. Do not perform this
operation to program additional
buttons.
• If you have any problems, or require
assistance, please call toll-free
1–800–355–3515 or, on the Internet
at www.HomeLink.com for
information or assistance. System with Devices Provided
with Rolling Codes Programming the Hand-held
Transmitters Manufactured after 1995
These devices can be identified by the
“LEARN” or “TRAIN” setting button
located where the hanging antenna is
attached to the garage door/gate
opener. It is NOT the button that is
normally used to open and close the
door.
The name and color of the button may
vary by manufacturer.
• Place the ignition device to the RUN
position without starting the engine.
• Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to
3 inches (5 - 30 cm) away from the
HomeLink ®
button you wish to
program. • Simultaneously press the Homelink ®
button you want to program and
the hand-held transmitter button.
• Release immediately the Homelink ®
button you want to program.
• Continue holding the hand-held
transmitter button until the
indicator light starts flashing quickly;
then release the button.
The quick flashing light indicates that
the channel with the new frequency
has been acquired and programmed
correctly by the HomeLink ®
system.
NOTE:
The distance necessary between the
portable hand-held transmitter and
the HomeLink ®
in the vehicle depends
on the system you wish to program.
Probably it will be necessary to try
several times. Upon every attempt,
keep the setting position for at least
15 seconds before trying again.
Synchronizing the Rolling Codes
At the end of the previously-described
programming, if the HomeLink ®
has
been programmed for a rolling code
system, it will be necessary to
synchronize it to ensure its correct
operation.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
