2019 MASERATI QUATTROPORTE light

When ABSA is turned off from MTC+
"Controls" page, there will be no
visual or audible alerts from RCP
subsystem.
When ABSA is turned on with any
setting,RCP subsystem shall respond
with both visual and audible alerts
when a detected vehicle or object is
present. Whenever an audible alert is
requested, the radio (if on) is also
muted.
Right/left turn/hazard signal status is
ignored; the RCP status always
requests the chime.
System Temporarily
Unavailable The blind spot system will become
temporarily unavailable and the
instrument cluster display will show
the message “Blind Spot Alert
Temporarily Unavailable” when the
vehicle enters a radio quite zone
(example the areas around radio
telescopes).
The warning light on the outside
rear-view mirrors will be lit up and stay
lit until the vehicle exits the zone.
System Fault The ABSA system cannot properly
operate either due to a fault of its
components, or because the area on windshield where the forward-facing
camera is located or on the rear
bumper fascia where the radar sensors
are located is dirty. In these cases the
amber warning light and the related
message will be displayed on the
instrument cluster.
In these cases do not use the system
and have the vehicle inspected at an
Authorized Maserati Dealer .

www.maserati.com.Highway Assist – HAS
(optional, with ACC only) The Highway Assist (HAS) is a level 2
Autonomy system (in reference to
NHTSA standards) that is designed to
aid the driver in the steering,
acceleration, and braking functions of
the vehicle.
HAS is designed to only function on
highways or limited access freeways.
HAS centers the vehicle by controlling
the EPS system based off of lane line
information from the forward-facing
camera and data from the front radar
sensor.
HAS combines ACC and LKA to
manage the steering and speed of the
vehicle under specific conditions. The
conditions to engage HAS are listed in
the next paragraph. If a lane line cross
is imminent, the steering wheel willDriving

vibrate and a graphic will display on
the instrument cluster.
WARNING!
• In case the vehicle approaches a
curve that is too tight in relation to
the current speed the system will
disengage, therefore the driver must
be prepared to take over control of
the vehicle immediately at any time.
To avoid this situation it is important
that the vehicle speed is not set
higher than the current speed limit
of the road.
• Highway Assist (HAS) is a hands-on
feature! You must keep your hands
on the steering wheel at all times.
The HAS system will disengage and
ACC will cancel if your hands are
removed from the steering wheels
for a set amount of time.
• HAS is intended for use only on
highways or limited access freeways
with a fully attentive driver. When
using HAS, hold the steering wheel
and be aware of surrounding traffic
and road conditions. Always be
prepared to immediately take over
control of the vehicle from the HAS
system. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious
injury or death.
• The following list does not fully
represent all situations in which HAS
may not function as intended. Do
NOT solely rely on the HAS system
to control the vehicle. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay alert
and safely control the vehicle at all
times.
• If the windshield is replaced, you
must have the forward-facing
camera remounted and aligned by
an Authorized Maserati Dealer.
Many factors can impact the
performance
of HAS
causing the
system to be unable to function as
intended. These include (but are not
limited to):
• Narrow, winding or curvy roads.
• Poor visibility (due to heavy rain,
snow, fog, etc.).
• Bright light (oncoming headlights or
direct sunlight) or shadows.
• Damage or obstruction caused by
mud, ice, snow, etc.
• A damaged or misaligned bumper.
• Interference from other equipment
that generates electromagnetic
waves. • Wet roads, roads covered or partially
covered by snow.
• Construction zones.
HAS Operation With ACC set (see “Adaptive Cruise
Crontrol – ACC” in this section), HAS
system activates by simply pressing the
button on the steering wheel.
Once the conditions are met, HAS will
engage.
CAUTION!
The Highway Assist (HAS) system may
take up to 5 seconds to engage once
all conditions are met.
The conditions for HAS to engage are
as
follows:
• HAS must be turned on or enabled.
NOTE:
In case of wet road or raining
conditions the function could be
disabled by the system in order to
minimize the risks.
• The vehicle must be on the highway
or limited access freeway.
• Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) must
be engaged.
• Left and right visible lane lines.Driving

• Vehicle speed must be between 0 to
90 mph (0 and 145 km/h).
• No faults in the forward facing
camera, radar, EPS, or MTC+.
• Lane width between 3 to 4.6 yd (2.8
and 4.2 m).
• Turn signal not activated.
• No faults related to this system.
Speed Range of Use Speed mph (km/h)
Minimum 0 (0)
Engaged/activated
(with ACC engaged) 0 (0)
Engaged/activated
(with ACC not
engaged) 18 (30)
Maximum 90 (145)
• 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

• Turn signal activated.
System Cancellation The HAS system will cancel (without
driver intervention) if either of the
following actions occur:
• Curve that is too tight.
• When leaving the grip of the hands
on the steering wheel.
• Vehicle exits the highway or limited
access freeway.
• Lane line markers aren’t detected by
the forward facing camera.
• Any ADAS system faults.
• ACC cancellation.
• Vehicle speed exceeds the maximum
limit. • Lateral accelerations exceeds the
limits.
NOTE:
• When HAS cancels, the
symbol
will turn red then grey.
• The presence of the hands on the
steering wheel is detected by a logic
combination of a capacitive sensor
installed in the steering wheel and
the measured applied torque at the
steering column. This leads to a
more robust hands detection.
System Limitations HAS is unable to guide the vehicle
when the following conditions occur.
• Lane markings are not clear or
visibility is poor (i.e. heavy rain,
snow, fog, etc.).
• Obstructed, covered or damaged
forward-facing camera or sensor.
• When driving on hills or sharp
curves.
• When approaching toll booths.
• When the highway entrance or exit
is wider than 20 ft (6 meters).
• Bright light (ex. direct sunlight or
glare) facing the forward camera. WARNING!
Many unforeseen conditions can occur
that can affect the performance of
Highway Assist (HAS). Always keep
this in mind and drive attentively. It is
the drivers responsibility to keep
control of the vehicle at all times.

Traffic Sign Assist – TSA
(optional) TSA detects traffic signs through the
use of a forward-facing digital camera
mounted on windshield, behind the
rear-view mirror. TSA assists the driver
by displaying on the instrument cluster
detected speed limits and traffic signs
with a restriction indicated by an
additional sign (e.g. in snow
conditions). TSA also uses the data of
the navigation system, in order to
provide information to the driver in all
cases in which the camera is not able
to detect the traffic signs that are
present on the road where the car is
travelling.
Some examples of these are: due to
low visibility, light reflection, damaged
traffic signs, traffic signs in wrong
position like rotated or fallen poles.
NOTE:
• Overtaking restriction signs are not
displayed by the TSA system.
• TSA provides a visual warning to the
driver when he/she unintentionally
reaches the maximum speed limit
allowed or when it exceeds the set
“Sensitivity” value. • The performance of TSA depends on
the update degree of navigation
system’s maps.
Customised Settings TSA is configurable by the customer
regarding the display mode on the
instrument cluster and the warning
sensitivity.
Entering "Controls" page on MTC+
display the driver can see the current
setting beside the "Traffic Sign Assist"
soft-key.
Touching “Traffic Sign Assist” soft-key
can disable or enable the system.
Touching the soft-key on the side the
driver can change the setting.
The display of the traffic signs can be
blinking or static.
The system can be set to display the
traffic signs when the speed of the
vehicle is equal to the speed limit allowed, or when it is higher than 5 or
10 mph (5 or 10 km/h).
Signs Monitoring on
Instrument Cluster
If TSA feature is set and a sign or a
speed limit is detected, the related
icons are displayed in the upper area
of the instrument cluster beside of the
main menu number and scroll arrows.Driving

The display area is divided in three
different sectors:
1 Conditioned speed limit area.
2 Unconditioned speed limit area.
3 Overtaking restriction area.
NOTE:
Overtaking restriction sign will be
displayed only in markets where this is
allowed.
If “Blinking On” warning mode is set,
when the visual warning is provided
only the unconditioned speed limit (in
sector 2 ) will start blinking when the
vehicle speed exceeds to the detected
unconditioned speed limit (“+0 mph”
or “+0 km/h” option) or when it
exceeds the set sensitivity value
(“+5 mph” - “+5 km/h” or “+10 mph” -
“+10 km/h” options). If the vehicle
speed stays above the unconditioned speed limit for several seconds the
unconditioned speed limit sign will
stop blinking because the manoeuvre
is evaluated as intentional. If the TSA
is not able to determine any kind of
valid speed limit neither from camera
nor from digital maps the following
image will be shown in sector 2 .
Since TSA also uses the data provided
by the navigation system, it can
update the sector 2 of the display in
the following situations without
detecting traffic signs:
• When the vehicle changes road.
• Highway enter/exit.
• Urban area stored in the digital map
enter/exit.
System Limitations TSA may be impaired or may not
function in the following situations:
• If there is poor visibility, e.g. due to
insufficient illumination of the road,
if there are highly variable shade
conditions or in rain, snow or fog.
• If there is glare, e.g. from oncoming
traffic, direct sunlight or reflections
from other vehicles.
• If the windshield in the area of the
camera is dirty, or if the camera is
fogged up, damaged or covered. • If the traffic signs are hard to detect,
e.g. due to dirt or snow, or because
they are covered or because of
insufficient lighting.
• If the information in the navigation
system's digital map is incorrect or
out-of-date.
• If the signs are ambiguous, e.g.
traffic signs on construction sites or
in adjacent lanes.
• When passing buses or trucks with a
speed sticker.Driving

Compact Spare Tire The limited-use spare tire, or compact
spare tire, is for temporary emergency
use only.
This tire is identified by a label
indicating the driving speed limitations
to comply with when using the spare
tire.
Inflate the spare tire to the cold
inflation pressure listed on the table
“Tire Inflation Pressure” in section
“Features and Specifications”.
Mounting the spare tire affects vehicle
handling. Replace (or repair) as soon as
possible the original equipment tire
and reinstall it on the vehicle. Do not
install more than one compact spare
tire and wheel on the vehicle at a
time.
WARNING!
With these compact spare tires, do not
drive more than 50 mph (80 km/h).
Temporary use spares have limited
tread life. Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) The Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) will warn the driver of a low
tire pressure according to the vehicle
recommended cold pressure indicated
on the table “Tire Inflation Pressure”
in section “Features and
Specifications” and on the label
applied on the driver's side rear door
pillar.
Tire pressure should always be set
based on cold inflation tire pressure.
The cold tire inflation pressure must
not exceed the maximum inflation
pressure molded into the tire sidewall.
Check “Tires – General Information” in
section “Driving” for information on
how to properly inflate the tires.
The tire pressure will also increase as
the vehicle is driven - this is normal
and there is no adjustment required
when this occurs.
The TPMS will warn the driver of a low
tire pressure if the tire pressure falls
below the low-pressure warning limit
for any reason, including low
temperature effects and natural
pressure loss of the tire.
The TPMS will continue to warn the
driver of low tire pressure as long as
the condition persists and will not turn off until the tire pressure is equal or
above the recommended cold inflation
pressure. Once the low tire pressure
warning light
illuminates, you must
increase the tire pressure to the
recommended cold inflation pressure
in order for the TPMS light
to turn
off. The system will automatically
update and the TPMS light
will turn
off once the system acquires the
correct tire pressure.
The vehicle may need to be driven for
up to 20 minutes above 15 mph
(24 km/h) in order for the TPMS to
acquire and process the updated
setting.Driving
