2019 MASERATI QUATTROPORTE AUX

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

Transmission Manual
Release of P (Park)
Position The manual disengagement of the
shift from P (Park) has the purpose to
allow towing the vehicle if not
normally possible using the shift lever
(such as inability to start the engine).
This procedure is exclusively intended
for emergency situations, only!
WARNING!
Always secure your vehicle by fully
applying the parking brake, before
activating the manual park release.
Activating the manual park release
could allow your vehicle to roll away
if it is not secured by the parking
brake. Activating the manual park
release on an unsecured vehicle could
lead to serious injury or death for
those in or around the vehicle.
The cover that allows the emergency
manual
park release
is located on the
left part of the driver’s foot well.
• Lift the mat on the driver side to
access the cover.
• Slip the cover from its seat. • Take strap out of its seat.
• With the tip of a screwdriver press
the clip shown in the picture box and
lift the strap up to release the
transmission from the P (Park)
position. The new position will allow
vehicle moving and towing.
• Release the parking brake only when
the vehicle is securely connected to a
tow vehicle.Auxiliary Jump-Start
Procedure If your vehicle has a discharged battery
it can be jump-started using a set of
jumper cables and a battery of another
vehicle or by using a portable battery
booster. It is necessary to have proper
jumper cables in order to connect the
booster battery to the remote posts of
the discharged battery. Booster cables
have positive and negative terminal
clamps and are identified by the
sheath color (red = positive, black =
negative).
NOTE:
An Authorized Maserati Dealer can
provide you with information about
the “Maserati Jumper Cables Kit”,
available in the “Genuine Accessories”
range.
Jump-starting can be dangerous if
done improperly so please follow the
procedures in this section carefully.
NOTE:
When using a portable battery booster
pack, follow the battery
manufacturer’s operating instructions
and precautions.In an Emergency

Maintenance-Free Battery This vehicle is equipped with a sealed
type maintenance-free battery. You
will never have to add water, nor is
periodic maintenance required.
WARNING!
• Battery fluid is a corrosive acid
solution and can burn or damage the
eyes. Do not allow battery fluid to
contact your eyes, skin, or clothing.
If acid splashes in eyes or on skin,
flush the area immediately with
large amounts of water.
• Battery gas is flammable and
explosive. Keep flame or sparks
away from the battery. Do not use a
booster battery or any other booster
source with an output greater than
12 Volts. Do not allow cable clamps
to touch each other.
• Battery posts, terminals, and related
accessories contain lead and lead
compounds. Wash hands after
handling the battery.
• The battery in this vehicle has a vent
hose that should not be
disconnected and should only be
replaced with a component of the same type (vented).
NOTE:
Remote
battery terminals for starting
are located in the engine
compartment for jump-starting to be
used with an auxiliary battery or a
battery from another vehicle (see
“Auxiliary Jump-Start Procedure”
chapter in section “In an Emergency”).
To Disconnect the Battery The battery is located on the inner
right side of the trunk compartment.
To access the battery it is necessary to
lift the ground coverage of the trunk
compartment and remove the access
cover as indicated. WARNING!
