WARNING!
• The ABS contains sophisticated
electronic equipment that may be
susceptible to interference caused
by improperly installed or high
output radio transmitting
equipment. This interference can
cause possible loss of anti-lock
braking capability. Installation of
such equipment should be
performed by qualified Maserati
personnel.
• Pumping the Anti-Lock Brakes will
diminish their effectiveness.
Pumping brakes makes the stopping
distance longer. Just press firmly on
your brake pedal when you need to
slow down or stop.
• The ABS installed to this vehicle
does not control trailer braking
system. Pay utmost attention when
driving on slippery ground since the
trailer traction might get poorer.
• Do not modify the vehicle braking
system to control the trailer brakes.
The hydraulic system controlling
vehicle braking must remain
independent from trailer braking
system. Traction Control System (TCS) The current device is an integral part
of the ESC system. It operates
automatically by reducing the power
transmitted by the engine in case of
slipping, loss of grip on wet floor
(aquaplaning), acceleration on
slippery snow-covered or frozen
surfaces, etc.
Activating under slip conditions
different control systems:
• if slippage affects both drive wheels,
it reduces the power transmitted by
the engine;
• if slippage only affects one drive
wheel, it brakes the slipping wheel
automatically.
Brake Assist System (BAS) This system completes the ABS system
by optimizing the vehicle braking
capacity during emergency brake
maneuvers. The system detects an
emergency braking situation by
sensing the rate and amount of brake
application and then applies optimum
pressure to the brakes in order to help
reduce braking distances.
The quick brake coupling is optimal
for BAS performances. In order to fully
exploit the system, apply continuous
brake pedal pressure during the entire vehicle stop sequence. Do not reduce
brake pedal pressure earlier than
required. Once the brake pedal is
released, the BAS is deactivated.
Brake Throttle Override (BTO) To complete the range of systems that
assist braking, the vehicle is equipped
with BTO, which is designed to stop
the vehicle even when it is during
acceleration. If the brake pedal is
depressed together with the
accelerator, the system does not
consider as “conflict” the sequence
“brake-first-then-accelerator” of pedal
application and it will not engage the
BTO. When the system recognizes that
the accelerator pedal is stuck pressed
and the sequence “accelerator-first-
then-brake-pressed” (this sequence is
recognized as a “conflict”), the engine
power will be automatically reduced
and, if the driver continues to depress
the accelerator and the brake pedal,
the system can make the vehicle come
to a complete stop.
Additionally, if the brake pedal is
released when the accelerator is still
stuck pressed, the corresponding
engine torque increase gradually to a
safe value.
During this event, the ETC light
indicator will illuminate. The systemDriving

Radar Device - Regulatory
Information The “Regulatory Information” for all
the radio frequency and radar devices
can be consulted by accessing the
"Services" section on the website
www.maserati.com.
Forward Collision Warning
– FCW The Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
system with braking action uses the
same parts already described for
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) for
sensing vehicle ahead (hereinafter
“target vehicle”) as well as part of the
warnings/messages on system
condition and activation status.
Full performance can be reached only
when both the sensing parts have
detected a vehicle or, if the car is
equipped with Pedestrian Emergency
Braking (PEB) system, also a
pedestrian. The difference between full and
reduced performance is not visible for
the driver.
Pedestrian Emergency Braking
(PEB) System (if equipped) The Pedestrian Emergency Braking
(PEB) is a sub-system of FCW and it
provides the driver with audible
warnings, visual warnings on the
instrument cluster display, and may
apply automatic braking when it
detect a potential frontal collision
with a pedestrian.
WARNING!
Pedestrian Emergency Braking (PEB) is
not intended to avoid a collision on its
own, nor can PEB detect every type of
potential collision with pedestrian.
