2019 MASERATI QUATTROPORTE dashboard

System Availability The ADAS systems (LKA, CC, ACC, FCW
and HAS) help the driver while
driving. These systems can be set and
monitored simultaneously on the
display, after opening “Driver Assist”
menu (see paragraph “TFT Display:
Menus and Settings” under
“Instrument Cluster” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
LKA is designed for an attentive
driver; therefore the system is
available only when his/her hands are
on the steering wheel or with hands
off for only a limited amount of time.
When the system is enabled it will
trigger cluster warning in case at least
one hand is not detected on the
steering wheel.
The torque application as well as the
vibration are suppressed/inhibited in
case of: high driver torque in the
steering wheel, high lateral
acceleration, hands not on the
steering wheel detected for more than
a certain time.
High dynamic driving behaviors,
driving on the lane boundary, or
driving off course will prevent the
function from working. FCW braking
and stability system interventions (ESC, ABS) will also prevent the system from
operating. Changing lanes results in
system inhibition for a certain time. In
addition, the driver must respect some
road characteristics such as
minimum-maximum width, lanes
clearly defined by two lane
boundaries and, only in limited cases
and for a limited time, at least one
lane boundary.
NOTE:
• In case of wet road or raining
conditions the function could be
disabled by the system in order to
minimize the risks.
• With lane boundaries it is mainly
referred to painted lines,
nevertheless the system in good
conditions might properly recognize
as valid lane boundaries also other
types (for example road edges,
curbs, etc..).
Being this function used to prevent
unintentional lane change/lane drift,
it will be temporary suppressed/
inhibited by a turn indicator
activation, therefore, graphic warning,
steering torque application and
vibration will be terminated. In this
condition in case of a vehicle detected
by the Blind Spot Assist (BSA) system in the covered area on the proper
side, there can be the transition from
LKA to Active Blind Spot Assist (ABSA)
(if this latter is on and properly
configured).
Function Description and
Operating Mode The intent of the function is to
prevent the lane departure by
warning the driver through indication
on the cluster and, if set, applying
steering torque and vibration.
Whenever the system is enabled there
will be graphic on the dedicated
screen in the driver assist page and for
the others it will be available in the
left top corner of the cluster screen.
The graphic which intent is to
represent at the glance the system
knowledge of the lane in front of the
car, the system suppression status and
warning.
For this reason, a simple colour code
has been adopted for each line (of the
two presented):
• Both grey lines means system is
enabled, not able to operate
(suppression condition present or
lane detection system not able to
properly estimate the lane);Driving

detect pedestrians, cyclists, or
animals.
• Even if your vehicle is equipped
with the BSA system, always check
your vehicle’s outside and rearview
mirrors for any vehicles approaching
from behind or overtaking.
• Use your turn signal before
changing lanes.
RCP - Rear Cross Path The Rear Cross Path (RCP) feature is
intended to aid the drivers when gear
in reverse of parking spaces where
their vision of oncoming vehicles may
be blocked.
The RCP system monitors the rear
detection zones on both sides of the
vehicle. Using sensors located on
either side of the rear bumper, it
detects any vehicles or objects that are
moving toward the side of the vehicle
with a minimum speed of
approximately 1 to 2 mph (1 km/h to
3 km/h) to a maximum of
approximately 10 mph (16 km/h), such
as in parking lot situations. NOTE:
In a parking lot situation, oncoming
vehicles can be obscured by vehicles
parked on either side. If the sensors
are blocked by other structures or
vehicles, the system will not be able to
alert the driver.
Proceed slowly and cautiously out of
the parking space until the rear end of
the vehicle is moderately exposed.
The RCP system will then have a clear
view of the cross traffic. If an
oncoming vehicle is detected, the RCP
system will alert the driver using both
the visual and audible alarms. If the
radio is on, it will also reduce the
radio volume.
WARNING!
RCP is not a Back Up Aid system. More specifically, it is intended to be used
to help a driver detect an oncoming
vehicle in a parking lot situation.
Drivers must be careful when backing
up, even when using RCP. Always
check carefully behind your vehicle,
look behind you, and be sure to check
for pedestrians, animals, other
vehicles, obstructions, and blind spots
before backing up. Failure to do so
can result in serious injury or death.
BSA and RCP Setting Setting modes can be selected from
the MTC+ System.
Touch “Controls” soft-key and then
“Blind Spot Assist” soft-key to enter
the setting page.
Refer to chapter “MTC+ “Controls”
Screen” in section “Dashboard
Instruments and Controls” for further

Highly dynamic behaviours, driving on
the lane boundary, off course will
prevent the function from working.
FCW braking and stability system
interventions (ESC, ABS) will also
prevent the system from operating.
Changing lane results in system
inhibition for a certain time.
In addition the road must respect some
characteristics such as minimum-
maximum width, lane clearly defined
by two lane boundaries and only in
limited case for a limited time at least
one.
NOTE:
• In case of wet road or raining
conditions the function could be
disabled by the system in order to
minimize the risks.
• With lane boundaries it is mainly
referred to painted lines,
nevertheless the system in good
conditions might properly recognise
as valid lane boundaries also other
types (for example road edges, curbs,
etc..). Speed Range of Use Speed mph (km/h)
Minimum 37 (60)
Engaged/activated 37 (60)
Maximum 112 (180)
System Limitation Because of physical limits the system to
properly operate needs good visibility
(it might not work or not properly
operate in case of heavy rain, snow,
wet roads, fog, direct sun on the
camera, dirty windshield, low
illumination etc.)
Sharp turns, slopes and change in
slopes, poor lane boundaries, as well
as construction areas and all the
scenarios described in this paragraph
may challenge the system, therefore
be always ready to prevent any
unexpected behaviour of the car.
Damaged front bumper, windshield
replaced without proper technical
intervention may also lead to system
malfunction or system unavailability.
Other conditions such as faults, but
not explicitly indicated here may also
prevent/interrupt the system
intervention. ABSA Setting ABSA is configurable by the customer
in order to maximize its efficiency
based on the driver driving style and
his/her expectation of the system,
reducing at the same time the possible
invasiveness.
Setting modes can be selected from
the MTC+ System (see "MTC+
"Controls" Screen" in section
"Dashboard Instruments and Controls"
for further information).
Touch "Controls" soft-key to display
the current status of the ABSA system,
if it was in the on state.
To change status, touch the "Active
Blind Spot Assist" soft-key.
To change the system setting, touch
the soft-key on the side.
Driver warnings can be only "Visual",
"Visual & Acoustic" (default mode) or
"Visual & Haptic".Driving

• If set above the maximum speed,
HAS will not function after the
vehicle speed will reach the
maximum speed.
• If set below the maximum speed and
the ACC target speed is increased,
HAS will function up to the
maximum speed and then the system
will turn off automatically.
• When the ACC target speed is reduce
and speed is lower than the maximum speed, the system will start
automatically.
• If the ACC target speed is set under
the maximum speed, HAS is active
and vehicle speed increases above
the maximum speed due to slope,
HAS will continue to function.
HAS Monitoring on Instrument
Cluster HAS and the other ADAS systems
conditions can be monitored on
instrument cluster display by accessing
the “Driver Assist” page with the
buttons on the steering wheel (see
“Instrument Cluster” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
The
symbol in grey indicates that
the HAS system is active, but not
engaged and is shown at the centre of
the TFT display when the “Driver
Assist” page is displayed. When exiting
the "Driver Assist" page, on TFT
display top left corner, the
grey
symbol will appear in the multiple
light of active ADAS systems. In addition to these symbols, on the
TFT top and bottom edge a coloured
glow may appear (further referred to
as "attention level colour"). Attention
level colour together with the outline
of the symbol
represent a further
indication of the system status. Driver Assist Page

CAUTION!
• Maserati strongly recommends the
use of Premium unleaded fuel ONLY.
Use of lesser grade fuel (other than
Premium) will lead to reduced
engine performance, and poor fuel
economy and can lead to the
Malfunction Indicator Light
illuminating on the instrument
cluster. Continued use of lesser grade
fuel (other than Premium fuel) can
lead to engine misfire problems and
possible catalytic converter damage.
• The anti-pollution devices of the
vehicle require unleaded fuel to be
used at all times. Under no
circumstance, not even in an
emergency, should leaded fuel be
supplied to the fuel tank, not even a
minimum quantity. This would
irreparably damage the catalytic
converters. An inefficient catalytic
converter results in noxious exhaust
emissions which damage the
environment.
Reformulated Gasoline Many areas of the country require the
use of cleaner burning gasoline,
referred to as “Reformulated Gasoline”. Reformulated gasoline
contains oxygenates and are
specifically blended to reduce vehicle
emissions and improve air quality.
Maserati supports the use of
reformulated gasoline. Properly
blended reformulated gasoline will
provide excellent performance and
durability of engine and fuel system
components.
Gasoline/Oxygenate Blends Some fuel suppliers blend unleaded
gasoline with oxygenates such as
Ethanol. Fuels blended with
oxygenates may be used in your
vehicle.
CAUTION!
DO NOT use gasoline containing
Methanol or gasoline containing more
than 10% Ethanol. Use of these blends
may result in starting and driveability
problems, damage critical fuel system
components, cause emissions to
exceed the applicable standard, and/or
cause the Malfunction Indicator Light
to illuminate (see “Instrument
Cluster” in section “Dashboard
Instruments and Controls”. Pump
labels should clearly communicate if a
fuel contains greater than 10% Ethanol.
Problems that result from using
gasoline
containing Methanol or
gasoline containing more than 10%
Ethanol are not the responsibility of
Maserati and may not be covered
under warranty.
MMT in Gasoline MMT (Methylcyclopentadienyl
Manganese Tricarbonyl) is a
manganese containing metallic
additive that is blended into some
gasoline to increase octane.
Gasoline blended with MMT provides
no performance advantage beyond
gasoline of the same octane number
without MMT.
Maserati recommends gasoline
without MMT to be used in your
vehicle. The MMT content of gasoline
may not be indicated on the gasoline
pump; therefore, you should ask the
gasoline station operator whether or
not the gasoline contains MMT.
It is even more important to look for
gasoline without MMT in Canada,
because MMT can be used at levels
higher than those allowed in the
United States. MMT is prohibited in
Federal and California reformulated
gasoline.Driving

Refueling Fuel Filler Neck Access To access the fuel filler neck, the filler
door must be unlocked. From outside
the vehicle, this can only be done by
pressing the unlock
or the lock
button on the key fob RKE
transmitter, in the same way as if
opening or closing the doors. If any of
the door lock controls is pressed from
inside the vehicle, the filler door will
still remain open to allow refueling.
• Press the indicated area on the filler
door, which is located on the rear
left side of the vehicle: the filler
door will open completely. Refill the Tank The fuel filler is sealed by an internal
closing tab, which is opened by the
fuel nozzle of the service station when
refueling.
Only a nozzle of the suitable size can
open the closing tab.
• Insert the fuel nozzle fully into the
filler.
NOTE:
Only with a correct size nozzle you can
refuel.
WARNING!
• To avoid the risk of fire, do not
approach the filler with open flames
or cigarettes!
• To avoid the risk of inhaling noxious
fumes, do not breathe close to the fuel filler door, when opened.
• Never have any smoking materials
lit in or near the vehicle when the
fuel filler door is open or the tank is
being filled.
• Never add fuel when the engine is
running. This violates most
fire-prevention regulations and may
cause the Malfunction Indicator
Light
to turn on (see
“Instrument Cluster” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
• Fill the vehicle with fuel. Fuel tank
capacity
is indicated in the
“Refillings” table in section
“Features and Specifications”.
When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or
shuts off, the fuel tank is basically
full: it is possible to further ensure
refueling by enabling the fuel nozzle
additional fuel supply until two
clicks. After the two additional clicks,
the amount of fuel allowed by the
system is very low, we recommend
therefore not to persist further.
• Wait approximately 10 seconds
before removing the fuel nozzle in
order to ensure completed supply of
residual fuel and restrict the risk of
fouling the fuel filler door area.Driving

Scheduled Maintenance
Service Correct maintenance is clearly the best
way to guarantee vehicle performance
and safety features, ensure respect for
the environment and low operating
costs.
NOTE:
Also remember that the observance of
the maintenance procedures is
essential for keeping your vehicle
operating properly. Not adhering to
the “Scheduled Service Plan” can
impact your vehicle’s warranty.
Interval Running Coupons Maserati has therefore provided for a
series of checks and maintenance
operations involving the 1 st
service
when the vehicle mileage reaches
12,500 mi (20,000 km) or after 1 year
of the vehicle's life, and subsequently
every 12,500 mi (20,000 km) or every
year.
After the 6 th
service, maintenance
must be restarted with the operations
scheduled for the 1 st
,2 nd
and 3 rd
service. CAUTION!
The Scheduled Maintenance services
are prescribed by the Manufacturer.
Failure to have the services carried out
can affect your warranty.
The Scheduled Maintenance service is
provided
by an Authorized Maserati
Dealer . In the event that, when a
service is performed, further
replacements or repairs are found to
be necessary in addition to the
scheduled operations, these can be
carried out only with the specific
consent of the Customer.
CAUTION!
You are advised to notify the
Authorized Maserati Dealer of any
minor operating problem, without
waiting for the next scheduled service.
NOTE:
• Change
your vehicle's oil if it has
been 1 year since your last oil
change.
• Change your engine oil more often if
you drive your vehicle off-road for an
extended period of time or short
trips without reaching operating
temperature. • Under no circumstances should oil
change intervals exceed 12,500 mi
(20,000 km) or at least after 1 year.
CAUTION!
Failure to perform the required
maintenance items may result in
damage to the vehicle.
Scheduled Maintenance
(Service) Indicator The service indicator system will
remind you the deadline for the
maintenance program.
The indicator light
on the
instrument cluster flashes for approx. 5
seconds displaying the message backed
by a beeping sound, indicating that
the next scheduled maintenance is due
or has already overdue (see paragraph
”TFT Display: Warning/Indicator Lights
of the Set Modes/ Functions” in
chapter “Instrument Cluster” of
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls” for more details).Maintenance and Care

• 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.
CAUTION!
• Prolonged driving with the MIL
on could cause further damage to
the emissions control system. It could
also affect fuel economy and
driveability. The vehicle must be
serviced before any emissions tests
can be performed.
• If the MIL
is flashing while the
engine is running, severe catalytic
converter damage and power loss
will soon occur. Immediate service at
an Authorized Maserati Dealer is
required.
Emissions Inspection and
Maintenance Programs In some localities, it may be a legal
requirement to pass an inspection of
your vehicle's emissions control system.Maintenance and Care
