2019 MASERATI QUATTROPORTE dashboard

All-Wheel Drive (AWD
version only) The active on-demand All-Wheel Drive
(AWD) system provides available
optimum traction for a wide variety of
road surface and driving conditions.
The system minimizes wheel slip by
automatically redirecting torque to
the front and rear wheels as necessary.
To maximise fuel economy, the AWD
system automatically disangages
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 is often activated, it is
recommended to have the vehicle
serviced at an Authorized Maserati
Dealer . Driving

Drive Mode Controls Preview Drive modes can be set using the
buttons on central console.
CAUTION!
“NORMAL” is the default drive mode,
optimized for the best balance
between performance, fuel
consumption and emissions in the
standard conditions use of the car.
Buttons on the central console have
the
following functions:
•
(ESC Off): to exclude/reactivate
the ESC system.
•
(Start&Stop Off): to deactivate/
reactivate the Start&Stop system. • I.C.E: to activate/deactivate the drive
mode to ensure increased control on
slippery surfaces as well as higher
energy efficiency.
• SPORT: to activate/deactivate a
sportier drive mode. In this mode,
the vehicle has a faster throttle
response and ESC sport calibration
(not recommended on wet/slippery
surfaces). Activating this drive mode,
will also change the EPS setting.
•
(Suspension): to switch between
the two suspensions setting modes:
soft (LED light off) and hard (“S”,
LED light on). Activating this drive
mode, will also change the EPS
setting.
By selecting one of these drive modes,
the yellow or white LED on the button
illuminates and, for some of these, the
vehicle configuration obtained is
graphically displayed on instrument
cluster. The same screen is also
obtained when selecting the “Drive
mode” menu using the buttons on
steering wheel.
When changing drive mode between
I.C.E., NORMAL, SPORT and
(Suspension), engine temperature
and fuel level indicators inner edge
will change color if “Outline Coloring”
of submenu “Screen Setup” is set to
“On” (see example in the figure). Refer to chapter “Instrument Cluster”
in section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls” for further information.
Setting the Drive Mode Drive modes can be set using the

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.
Parking Brake The vehicle is equipped with an
electric automatic parking brake, also
called EPB (Electric Parking Brake).
The EPB braking action is ensured by a
“Performance Dual Cast” or “Dual
Cast” braking system with dedicated
calliper which acts on each rear brake
disc.
It can be automatically engaged when
the engine is turned off and
disengaged with engine running,
driver seatbelt latched and driver door
closed, while pressing the brake pedal
and operating the shift lever.
Furthermore, EPB can be automatically
engaged above a slope threshold with
the gearshift in P (Park) to avoid
damage to the vehicle. EPB can be
disengaged before turning off the
vehicle.
When the parking brake is applied,
the warning light
lights up on
the tachometer display and the
related message is displayed on the
instrument cluster for 5 seconds (see
“Instrument Cluster” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).Driving

Onboard Diagnostic System Your vehicle is equipped with a
sophisticated onboard diagnostic
system. 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 well within current local
regulations of various countries.
If any of these systems require service,
the system will turn on the
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL).
It will also store diagnostic codes and
other information, which your Authorized Maserati Dealer will use to
service your vehicle. Although the
vehicle will still be driveable and not
need towing, contact an Authorized
Maserati Dealer for service as soon as
possible.
CAUTION!
• Prolonged driving with the
Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) on could cause further damage

providing limited autonomous braking
or additional brake support if the
driver is not braking adequately in the
event of a potential frontal collision.
In this state the system disables the
brake jerk.
Limited Operation and Service
Warning The messages indicating on display the
limited functionality or service at an
Authorized Maserati Dealer required
are the same as for the ACC system.
For further details, refer to “Adaptive
Cruise Control – ACC” in this section.
NOTE:
• The adjustment of the sensor could
be affected by strong shocks or light
collisions. This could affect the
system by reducing the systems
performance or could increase the
false positive rate. The adjustment of
the radar system has to be proved or
a new adjustment has to be
performed by an Authorized
Maserati Dealer .
• The radar system requires specific
feature to detect objects. The
detection could be disturbed/
reduced by environment influences,
for example by electrical field or the
object itself. Object with small radar reflection properties could not be
detected or detected late.
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.
Lane Keeping Assist - LKA
(optional, with ACC only) This system was designed especially
for highway or freeway driving, to
reduce the risk that the vehicle, under
particular circumstances, accidentally
departs from the lane in use. When
this happens, graphic instructions on
instrument cluster display together
with steering torque application and
steering wheel vibration (depending
on the distance to the line) warn the
driver that the vehicle is going out of
the lane initiates a steering maneuver
to try to prevent the lane exit.
To detect lane lines, the system uses
the forward-facing camera behind the
rear-view mirror, which is the same
one used also by the lighting system
to manage the automatic high beams.
The logic core is in the front radar.
LKA system remembers the condition
it was in before turning off the
vehicle.
