mineral type. Using mineral fluids
damages the special rubber linings of
the brake system irreparably.
WARNING!
• To avoid contamination from foreign
materials or moisture, use only new
brake fluid or fluid that has been in
a tightly closed container. Keep the
master cylinder reservoir cap secured
at all times.
• Overfilling the brake fluid reservoir
can result in spilling brake fluid.
Brake fluid can also damage painted
and vinyl surfaces, make sure it does
not spill over these surfaces.
• Do not allow petroleum based fluid
to contaminate the brake fluid.
Brake seal components could be
damaged.
Adding Windshield/Headlight Washer
Fluid
The
reservoir on the
left side of the
engine compartment contains the fluid
to wash the windshield, the window
liftgate and headlights (if equipped).
During scheduled services or when the
message of low level of the washer fluid appears together with the
related telltale
add more fluid as
soon as possible.
Depending on the system installed in
the vehicle, the fluid reservoir may
contain nearly 5.3 Quarts (5 liters) of
windshield/headlight washer fluid or
nearly 3.7 Quarts (3.5 liters) of washer
fluid.
• Remove the reservoir cap in the
engine compartment and lift the
filler neck. • Fill the reservoir with windshield
washer solvent (refer to “Refillings”
in section “Features and
Specifications”) and operate the
system for a few seconds to flush out
the residual water.
• When refilling the washer fluid
reservoir, apply some washer fluid to
a cloth or towel and wipe the wiper
blades clean. This will help blade
performance.
To prevent freeze-up of your
windshield/headlight washer system in
cold weather, select a solution or
mixture that meets or exceeds the
temperature range of your climate.
This rating information can be found
on most washer fluid containers.Maintenance and Care

Fluid Level Check for Coolant
Transmission System
The coolant contained in the bottle of
this system is the same as the one used
for the cooling system of the engine.
For the preparation of the mixture of
water and antifreeze and for the
control of the level, proceed as shown
in the “Engine Coolant Level Check”
of this chapter.
Engine Air Filters Replacement Contact an Authorized Maserati
Dealer to have the air filters replaced.
A/C Air Filter Replacement This filter performs mechanic/
electrostatic air filtering, provided
that windows and doors are closed.
The filter is located under the hood in
the external A/C system air inlet, on the passenger side of the vehicle, next
to the windshield wipers.
To replace the filter during the
scheduled maintenance services or
after the vehicle has been heavily used
on dusty roads, proceed as follows:
• Remove the access door in the cowl
screen by pressing the retaining clips
indicated.
• Unsnap both ends and lift the filter
retaining cover. • Remove the used filter slipping it off
from within the air intake.
• Install the new filter with arrows
pointing in the direction of airflow,
which is toward the rear of the
vehicle (text and arrows on the filter
will indicate this).
• Close the filter retaining cover and
reinstall the access door.Maintenance and Care

External plastic parts must be cleaned
with the same procedure followed for
the normal washing of the bodywork.
Avoid, as far as possible, parking the
vehicle under trees; the resinous
substances that very often drop from
the trees give the paint a dull
appearance and increase the
possibility of originating corrosive
processes.
It is important that the drain holes in
the lower sides of the doors, rocker
panels, and trunk bottom be kept
clear and open.
CAUTION!
• Bird droppings must be washed off
immediately and thoroughly, since
their acidity is particularly corrosive.
• To provide better protection for the
paint, polish the vehicle at intervals
with a suitable product leaving a
protective film on the paint.
• If the vehicle is washed using
high-pressure water jets or cleaners,
it is important that the nozzle of the
jet be kept at a distance of at least
16 in (40 cm) from the bodywork to
avoid damaging it. Glass Surfaces
All
glass surfaces should be cleaned on
a regular basis with any commercial
household-type glass cleaner.
Never use an abrasive type cleaner.
Use caution when cleaning the inside
rear window on the liftgate equipped
with electric defrosters. Do not use
scrapers or other sharp instrument
that may scratch the elements.
When cleaning the rearview mirror,
spray cleaner on the towel or rag that
you are using. Do not spray cleaner
directly on the mirror.
Labels can be peeled off after soaking
with warm water.
When cleaning is performed, keep all
metal objects at a safe distance from
the window.
Cleaning Headlights
Your vehicle has plastic headlights that
are lighter and less susceptible to
stone breakage than glass headlights.
Plastic is not as scratch-resistant as
glass and therefore different lens
cleaning procedures must be followed.
To minimize the possibility of
scratching the lenses and reducing
light output, avoid wiping with a dry
cloth. To remove road dirt, wash with
a mild soap solution followed by
rinsing. Do not use abrasive cleaning
components, solvents, steel wool or
other aggressive material to clean the
lenses.
Condensation and Fogging on the
Light Clusters
With cold or humid climates, after a
driving rain or after cleaning the car,
the surface of the front and rear light
clusters could fog and/or form
condensate drops on the inside. This is
a natural phenomenon due to the
temperature and humidity differences
between the lens internal and
external surface, which nevertheless
does not indicate a fault and does not
compromise the regular operation of
the lights. The fogging/condensate
disappears when switching on the
lights, starting from the centre of the
diffuser and gradually going to the
edges.
Moldings and Aluminum Trims
• For cleaning moldings and aluminum
trims, avoid the use of acidic or
alkaline cleaning agents that can
destroy the protecting surface
treatment.
• After washing aluminum trim with
warm water, apply the cleaning
agent with a clean tissue or a soft
sponge on the surface. Do not useMaintenance and Care
