Electric Power Steering Failure
Warning Light
This warning light, and the
related message, illuminate
when the electric power
steering is not operating and
needs service.
If the warning light is on, steering
assistance may be not available.
WARNING!
After battery disconnection event, the
warning light may be on. In this case,
start the engine and perform a
steering wheel stroke end to end.
If the problem persists, contact an
Authorized
Maserati Dealer .
Catalyst Over Temperature Warning
Light
This warning light, and the
related message, light up if
the engine runs irregularly
with consequent high
temperature in the exhaust system. WARNING!
• If the warning light is accompanied
by the message “Catalyst Temp
Getting Hot Reduce Speed”: the
temperature of the catalytic
converters is too high. The driver
must slow down immediately until
the warning light turns off.
• If the message “Catalyst Temp Hot
Stop Safely Wait To Cool” appears
after decelerating: the temperature
in the catalytic converters has
reached a dangerous level and the
catalytic converters could be
damaged. Drive slowly to the
nearest Authorized Maserati Dealer.
• Maserati declines all responsibility
for whatever damage deriving from
non-compliance with the above
mentioned warnings.
Door Ajar Indicator
This
indicator illuminates
when one
or more doors are
ajar. The indicator will show
which door is ajar. When one
or more doors are open, a related
message will be displayed if the vehicle
is running at a speed of 5 mph (8
km/h) or faster. Liftgate and Hood Ajar Indicators
These light indicators will
illuminate to indicate that the
liftgate and/or the hood are
ajar.
When the liftgate or the hood
is open, a related message will
be displayed besides the light
if the vehicle is running at a speed of
5 mph (8 km/h) or faster.
Electronic Throttle Control (ETC)
Indicator
This indicator light indicates a
failure of the Electronic
Throttle Control (ETC) system.
If the indicator turns on while
driving (a torque decrease is possible),
have the system checked by an
Authorized Maserati Dealer .
When detecting a failure, the light
indicator will illuminate while the
engine is running.
If the indicator remains lit with the
engine running, you can still drive your
vehicle. However, contact an
Authorized Maserati Dealer as soon as
possible.
If the indicator is flashing while the
engine is running, immediate service is
required. You may experience reduced
performance, an elevated/rough idleDashboard Instruments and Controls

perform the following procedure
preferably at an Authorized Maserati
Dealer .
In the event of a momentary problem,
the transmission can be reset to regain
all forward gears by performing the
following steps.
• Stop the vehicle.
• Shift the transmission into P (Park), if
possible.
• Turn the engine off.
• Wait approximately 30 seconds.
• Restart the engine.
• Shift the transmission into D (Drive)
and then into the desired gear
range. If the problem is no longer
detected, the transmission will
return to normal operation.
NOTE:
Even if the transmission can be reset,
we recommend that you visit an
Authorized Maserati Dealer at your
earliest possible convenience, which
has diagnostic equipment to
determine if the problem could recur.
Transmission Manual Release of P
(Park) Position
See chapter “Transmission Manual
Release of P (Park) Position” in section
“In an Emergency”. All-Wheel Drive The active on-demand All-Wheel Drive
(AWD) system provides available
optimum traction for a wide variety of
road and off-road surface and driving
conditions. The system minimizes
wheel slip by automatically redirecting
torque to the front and rear wheels as
necessary.
To maximize fuel economy, the AWD
system automatically disengages
torque distribution on front axle when
road and environmental conditions
are such that wheel slip is unlikely to
occur. When specific road and
environmental conditions require
increased levels of road traction, the
AWD system automatically distributes
the torque between front and rear
axle in order to grant the best driving
experience. Torque distribution is
displayed on the TFT in the “Drive
Mode” main menu. Refer to
paragraph “TFT Display: Menus and
Settings” in chapter “Instrument
Cluster” of section “Dashboard
Instruments and Controls” for further
information. WARNING!
There may be a slight delay for AWD
engagement after a wheel slip
condition occurs.
NOTE:
If the A WD
system service warning
light and message appears after
engine start up, or during driving, it
means that the AWD system is not
functioning properly or is in recovery
mode due to overheating caused by
the excessive wheel spin. In this
condition the vehicle can continue
driving but only rear wheel drive is
working. If the warning light and
message are often activated, it is
recommended to have the vehicle
serviced at an Authorized Maserati
Dealer .Driving

“NORMAL”, “SPORT ”, “
(Suspension)“ or “I.C.E.” After
selecting this height, once the vehicle
speed goes below 15 mph (24 km/h),
the vehicle height will begin to
lower. To exit “Entry/Exit” mode,
move selector to another position or
drive the vehicle over 15 mph (24
km/h). Automatic lowering of the
vehicle into “Entry/Exit” mode can be
enabled through the MTC+ (refer to
“MTC+ Settings” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”). If this feature is enabled,
the vehicle will only lower if the
gearshift lever is in P (Park), the
engine is running, doors and liftgate
are closed and the Pneumatic
Suspension System should be either
in “NORMAL” or “Aero”. The Vehicle
will not automatically lower if the
pneumatic suspension system is in
“Off Road 2” or “Off Road 1” mode.
The lowering will be suppressed
when the ignition is switched off and
a door is opened to prevent setting
the alarm off.
Lowering Vehicle Height for Inactivity
Lowering of vehicle ground clearance
after a long period of inactivity should
be considered normal since it is due to a drop of pressure in the pneumatic
suspension system.
Approximately, after one week of
inactivity, vehicle ground clearance will
lower by 0.4 in (10 mm). To set off the
drop of pressure due to inactivity, it is
necessary to start the engine and allow
some time until system reaches
operating pressure and lifts the vehicle
to set ride height. A message on
instrument cluster display will warn
driver when set ride height is reached.
Driving vehicle before the set riding
height is reached is not safe and could
damage suspension components.
WARNING!
After a long period of vehicle
inactivity, drive only when vehicle
reaches set ride height to prevent any
problems of the pneumatic suspension system from limiting occupants'
safety.
"Launch Control" Mode
(TROFEO version only) "Launch Control" mode is a
performance start procedure.
By activating this procedure you get
the best possible acceleration from
standstill of the car.
This mode allows you to ground the
torque necessary to prevent the
wheels from slipping during
acceleration performance.
To make a performance start in
"Launch Control" mode, the following
conditions must be met:
• Water and transmission temperature
in proper range.
• No engine, AWD and on board
systems faults.
• The vehicle must be traveled at least
440 mi (700 km).
• "CORSA" drive mode on.
• Shift lever in "D" or"M +/-" position.
• The vehicle must be stationary on a
level road surface.
• The driver door closed and the safety
belt fastened.Driving

Launch Control Sequence
NOTE:
• All the above mentioned conditions
must be verified in order to activate
"Launch Control" performance start
procedure.
• During “Launch Control” ACC, FCW
and HAS (if equipped) are
temporarily disabled.
• Each step displayed on the
instrument cluster has a time out
approximately of 5 seconds.
• With brake pedal pressed and
steering wheel straight, pull "–" left
paddle. The instrument cluster shows
the "Launch Control" engaged page.
• To confirm the procedure, pull again
the "–" paddle down. To abort the
procedure, pull "+" right paddle. • To confirm the "Launch Control"
sequence, press full the brake pedal
as indicated in the message on the
instrument cluster.
• With brake pedal pressed full, press
full the accelerator pedal as
indicated in the message on the
instrument cluster.
• Release brake pedal. The launch of
the vehicle starts with ESC that
manages the maximum performance and engine torque calibrated to
maximize performance.
During the acceleration phase the
“Launch Control” symbol appears at
the top right of the TFT display.Driving
