proper appearance.
Display Messages
After shifting selector to change
position, a pop-up message will
indicate for 5 seconds when set
position has been reached (after
pneumatic suspension system
intervention that might last up to 30
seconds).
This type of message will be displayed
only if the option to view all
pneumatic suspension system messages
was set (For further details, refer to
“MTC+ Settings” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
Set ride height and drive mode can be
monitored on instrument cluster
display via “Drive mode” menu, using
buttons on the right-hand side of the steering wheel (see chapter
“Instrument Cluster” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
The change from one position to
another can occur only if the following
requirements are met.
• Lifting: engine running, speed lower
than preset limit, etc.
• Lowering: engine running, speed
lower than preset limit, doors closed,
etc.
Ride height change can be temporarily
suspended or disabled under the
following conditions, as indicated in
the pop-up messages on instrument
cluster display.
• High speed: decrease speed to set
new height.
• Pneumatic suspension system
overheat: wait for the system to cool
down before changing height.
• Door(s) and/or liftgate open: close
door(s) and liftgate to lower the
vehicle.
• Pneumatic suspension system
temporarily disabled or in fault: wait
a few minutes and repeat the
operation or contact an Authorized
Maserati Dealer . • Low battery: start the engine to
recharge battery and change ride
height.
• Entry/Exit position not available:
check the cause preventing this
control.
Using the Ride Height Positions and
speed Thresholds
The different ride heights that can be
set with the selector allow user to
drive the vehicle on and off road,
using the available drive modes and
functions.
NOTE:
The indications below explain as a
general rule which selector position
has to be used in certain situations and
which are the speed thresholds at
which it is possible to set the available
ride height and when system
automatically switches to a different
height. In any case, the driver must
always assess and set the ride height
and drive mode most suitable to the
conditions of the current driving path
on a case by case basis.
• Normal : normal ground clearance.
This is the standard height position
of the pneumatic suspension and is
meant for normal road conditions.Driving

Active Alternator To improve overall efficiency by
reducing the auxiliary loads on the
engine, the vehicle is equipped with a
smart alternator that is mainly active
in the latter energy balance phases
(for example, during braking, coasting
and overloading). The alternator
becomes active when the battery
charge is insufficient and when the
vehicle exits from the braking and
overload situations.
Active Alternator Feature (if feature is
available)
In the I.C.E. screen, the user can display
in the form of dynamic bars some
informative parameters on the state of
battery charge ("CHARGE"), efficiency
of drive style ("EFFICIENCY") and the
matured economy (“
” bonus range)
expressed in miles (mi) or kilometres
(km). The bonus range (about 37 mi / 60 km
for each full of fuel) is automatically
reset every time the vehicle is refueled.
Off-Road Drive This vehicle is equipped with a specific
“Off Road” driving mode which allows
to drive through various terrain
conditions (rock, mud, sand), also
uphill and downhill, eventually in
condition of lateral inclination.
To set the "OFF ROAD" drive mode,
please see the paragraphs “Setting the
Drive Mode” and “Setting Ride
Height” of chapter “Drive Mode” in
this section.
In order to enhance this specific
performance, the "OFF ROAD" drive
mode modifies the setting of:
• Ride height;
• Engine, transmission calibration;
• Suspensions.
When “OFF ROAD” is selected, ride
height is set to “Off Road 1” (vehicle is
higher by approx. 1 in / 25 mm).
It is possible to select ride height “Off
Road 2” (vehicle is raised by approx.
1.5 in / 40 mm) using the ride height
selector.
“OFF ROAD” drive mode is limited up
to a max speed of 56 mph (90 km/h). In
case the vehicle speed should exceed
this limit, the drive mode will be
de-selected automatically and the
drive mode will return to “NORMAL”.Driving

“Setting Saved” Selection notification
appears as a popup for 2 seconds then
the display will show again the
modified function.
In order to disable the automatic
operation follow the same procedures
and select the other option.
CAUTION!
• Under certain conditions when the
battery voltage is low, the electric automatic parking brake system may
temporarily be deactivated for safety
reasons. Therefore, typically upon
starting the engine, when the
battery voltage drops, a message
may temporarily be displayed,
indicating that automatic operation
is temporarily disabled.
• In case of repetitive requests to reset
the EPB through the messages shown
on the TFT display, please contact an
Authorized Maserati Dealer .
Failure Indication In the event of electric parking brake
system failure, the warning light
on the display will light up and the
related message will show for 5
seconds.
WARNING!
In the event of an EPB failure, take
your vehicle to the nearest Authorized
Maserati Dealer as soon as possible. Initialize the EPB System after
Re-connecting
the V ehicle Battery

subsequent connection of the battery,
on the instrument cluster display the
warning light
will be illuminated.
To initialize the EPB system, lift,
release and lift again the lever located
behind the shift lever.
Emergency Disengagement
In case of brake lock with complete
electrical system failure, it is necessary
to force the electric actuator on the
rear calipers (see “Emergency Release
of the Parking Brake” chapter in
section “In an Emergency”).

• HDC will be deactivated but remain
available when driver pushes the
accelerator steadily, without
exceeding 18 mph (30 km/h). A
pop-up message and the
green
light will stay on.
• When the vehicle speed exceeds
18 mph (30 km/h) but is lower than
31 mph (50 km/h) this function turns
to stand-by mode, the
light with
below the set speed turns white. In
this case, to reset the function it is
necessary to push up (RES +)
multifunction switch.
• While, if speed exceeds 31 mph
(50 km/h), or when driving beyond
18 mph (30 km/h) for over 70
seconds, system will immediately
disable the feature and the
light
will turn off. Brake Overheating with HDC
The icon on instrument cluster display
and the LED on steering wheel button
will flash when HDC deactivates due
to overheated brakes. The flashing
will stop and HDC will activate again
once the brakes have cooled
sufficiently.
WARNING!
• HDC is only intended to assist the
driver in controlling vehicle speed
when descending hills. The driver
must remain attentive to the driving
conditions and is responsible for
maintaining a safe vehicle speed.
• Prolonged use of the system might
overheat the brakes. In case of
brake overheating, the HDC, if
active, will be progressively
deactivated after warning the driver
(switch-off of LED on button);
feature can be reactivated only after
brake temperature will have
decreased sufficiently. Distance that
can be traveled depends on brake
temperature, load and vehicle
speed.
• The performance of a vehicle
equipped with HDC must never be
exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner that could jeopardize the
driver’s safety or the safety of
others.
