or engine stall and your vehicle may
require towing.
Low Fuel Indicator
When the fuel level reaches
approximately 4.2 Gallons (16
liters) this light under the fuel
gauge indicator will turn on,
and remain on until fuel is added
together with the related message. In
this condition the color indicating the
quantity of fuel in the tank, inside the
indicator on display, will go from
white to amber.
Refer to “Refueling” in section
“Driving” for fuel filling.
Windshield and Headlights Washer
Low Fluid Indicator
This indicator will illuminate
for 5 seconds to indicate a low
level of the windshield and
headlights washer fluid. A
related message will be displayed.
See “Maintenance Procedures” in
section “Maintenance and Care” for
fluid filling.
Headlight Aiming System Failure
Warning Light
This warning light and the
related message indicate a
failure of the automatic
headlight aiming system (horizontal leveling, electromechanical
swiveling) or of the Advanced
Frontlighting System (AFS).
Please contact an Authorized Maserati
Dealer to check the system.
Advanced Frontlighting System (AFS)
Failure Warning Light
This warning light and the
related message light up to
report a failure of the AFS
system.
Contact an Authorized Maserati
Dealer as soon as possible.
Automatic High Beam Failure Warning
Light
This warning light and the
related message illuminate to
report a failure of the
automatic high beam
headlights.
Contact an Authorized Maserati
Dealer as soon as possible.
Suspensions Failure Warning Light
This warning light and the
related message turn on while
driving if there is a failure of
the suspension system.
Please contact an Authorized Maserati
Dealer to check the system. Ice Hazard Indicator
When the external
temperature falls below 38°F
(3°C), the temperature value
blinks for a few seconds, the
indicator light turns on, a message is
displayed and an acoustic signal is
triggered to warn the driver of the
risk of icy roadbed.
Under such conditions, we recommend
using the I.C.E. drive mode (see
“Automatic Transmission” in section
“Driving”) drive carefully and slow
down as the grip of the tires may be
significantly reduced.
The indicator light flashes for 5
seconds and switches off when the
temperature reaches 43°F (6°C) or
higher.
Fuel Filler Cap (Gas cap) Open
Warning Light
After refueling the car
performs a check of the fuel
filler cap and this warning
light comes on if it is not
correctly closed, after approximately
10 minutes also depending on driving
conditions.
See “Refueling” in section “Driving”
for more details.Dashboard Instruments and Controls

“Off Road 2” ride height is limited
instead up to a max speed of 25 mph
(40 km/h). In case the vehicle speed
should exceed this limit, ride height
will be put automatically to “Off Road
1” while driving mode will remain
“OFF ROAD”.
An advantage of the higher ground
clearance is a better view of the road,
allowing you to anticipate problems.
A higher clearance and the longer
travel of the suspension might allow
the vehicle to overcome some
obstacles.
A higher ground clearance means a
higher center of gravity. If at all
possible, avoid sharp turns or abrupt
maneuvers. Failure to operate this
vehicle correctly may result in loss of
control or vehicle rollover .
Although the pneumatic suspension
system contributes to limiting these
risks by setting precautionary speed
thresholds, the driver must always pay
utmost attention and drive carefully.
WARNING!
“Off Road 2” ride height must always
be selected in case of water fording.
Please remember water fording limits:
max depth of the water must be lower than 19 in (50 cm) and crossing
speed lower than 5 mph (8 km/h).
In “OFF ROAD” drive mode, also
engine,
transmission settings are
changed in order to provide the most
suitable level of torque and selected
gear to improve traction on
low-adherence condition and uphill
climbing.
WARNING!
In case of downhill, the use of the Hill
Descent Control (HDC) is
recommended, especially for relevant
slope and in case of low-adherence
conditions.
Also suspensions (Skyhook Continuous
Damping
Control) are set
to a specific
calibration in “OFF ROAD” drive
mode, in order to obtain the right
damping force provided by the shock
absorbers, combined with the
increased ride heights “Off Road 1”
and “Off Road 2”.
Driving Through Water Set maximum ride height “Off Road
2” before driving through water.
Although your vehicle is capable of
driving through water, a number precautions must be considered
before entering the water.
NOTE:
Your vehicle is capable of water
fording to a maximum of 19 in (50 cm)
of water. To maintain optimal
performance of your vehicle’s heating
and ventilation system it is
recommended to switch the system
into recirculation mode during water
fording.
CAUTION!
When driving through water, do not
exceed 5 mph (8 km/h). Always check
water depth before entering, as a
precaution. Check all fluids
afterwards: driving through water
may cause damage to engine and
driveline that may not be covered by
the new vehicle limited warranty.
Driving through water more than a
few
inches/centimeters deep will
require extra caution to ensure safety
and prevent damage to your vehicle. If
you must drive through water, try to
determine the depth and the bottom
condition (and location of any
obstacles) prior to entering. Proceed
with caution and maintain a steadyDriving

defects or other reproductive harm. To
minimize exposure, avoid breathing
exhaust, do not idle the engine except
as necessary, service your vehicle in a
well-ventilated area and wear gloves
or wash your hands frequently when
servicing your vehicle. For more
information go to:

Heavy-Duty Vehicle Use If the car is mainly used under one of
the following conditions:
• towing a trailer;
• off-road;
• short, repeated journeys (less than
4–5 mi/7-8 km) at sub-zero outside
temperatures;
• engine often idling or driving long
distances at low speeds or long
periods of idleness;
you should perform the following
inspections more frequently than
recommended on the “Scheduled
Service Plan”:
• check front disc brake pad conditions
and wear; • check cleanliness of hood and trunk
locks, cleanliness and lubrication of
linkage;
• visually inspect conditions of: engine,
transmission, pipes and hoses
(exhaust - fuel system - brakes) and
rubber elements (boots - sleeves -
bushes - etc.);
• check battery charge;
• visually inspect condition of the
accessory drive belts;
• check and, if necessary, change
engine oil and replace oil filter;
• check and, if necessary, replace
pollen filter of the A/C system;
• check and, if necessary, replace air
cleaner filter.
CAUTION!
All maintenance operations for the
vehicle must be carried out by an
Authorized Maserati Dealer . For
routine and minor maintenance
operations which you can carry out
yourself, make sure that you have the
necessary experience and always use
suitable equipment, original Maserati
spare parts and the prescribed fluids.
Shall this not be the case, do not carry
any operation on your own and
contact an Authorized Maserati Dealer .
On Board Diagnostic System Your vehicle is equipped with a
sophisticated on board diagnostic
system called OBD II. This system
monitors the performance of the
emissions, engine, and automatic
transmission control systems. When
these systems are operating properly,
your vehicle will provide excellent
performance and fuel economy, as
well as engine emissions suited to
current government regulations.
If any of these systems require service,
the OBD II system will turn on the
Malfunction Indicator Light
on the
instrument cluster display (refer to
“Instrument Cluster” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”). The system stores as well
diagnostic codes and other
information to assist your service
technician by performing repairs.
Although the vehicle will be driveable
and will not need towing, contact an
Authorized Maserati Dealer for service
as soon as possible.Maintenance and Care
