Floor Mat
Always use floor mats designed to fit
the footwell of your vehicle. Use only
floor mats that leave the pedal area
unobstructed and that are firmly secured so that they cannot slip out of
position and interfere with the pedals
or impair safe operation of your
vehicle.
NOTE:
The Authorized Maserati Dealer can
provide you with any information
about the available Maserati floor
mats included in the “Genuine
Accessories” range.
WARNING!
Pedals that cannot move freely can
cause loss of vehicle control and
increase the risk of serious personal
injury.
• Always make sure that floor mats
are properly attached to the proper
fasteners.
• Never place or install floor mats or
other floor coverings in the vehicle
that cannot be properly secured to
prevent them from moving and
interfering with the pedals.
• Never put floor mats or other floor
coverings on top of already installed
floor mats. Additional floor mats
and other coverings will reduce the
size of the pedal area and interfere with the pedals.
• Check mounting of mats on a
regular basis. Always properly
reinstall and secure floor mats that
have been removed for cleaning.
• Always make sure that objects
cannot fall into the driver footwell
while the vehicle is moving. Objects
can become trapped under the
brake pedal and accelerator pedal
causing a loss of vehicle control.
• Mounting posts must be properly
installed, if not equipped from the
factory. Failure to properly follow
floor mat installation or mounting
can cause interference with the
brake pedal and accelerator pedal
operation causing loss of control of
the vehicle.
Tires
•
Examine tires for excessive tread
wear and uneven wear patterns.
• Check for stones, nails, glass, or
other objects lodged in the tread or
sidewall.
• Inspect the tread for cuts and cracks.
• Inspect sidewalls for cuts, cracks and
bulges.
• Check the wheel nuts for tightness.Before Starting

Power Steering Wheel
Adjustment This feature allows you to tilt the
steering column upward or downward
or to lengthen or shorten it in order to
adjust the steering wheel to an
optimized position.
The power tilt/telescoping steering
column/wheel switch is located on the
lower left side of the steering column.
To adjust the tilt of the steering
column/wheel, move the switch up or
down as desired.
To lengthen or shorten the steering
column/wheel, pull the switch toward
you or push the switch away from you
as desired. NOTE:
You can use your key fob with RKE
transmitter or the memory buttons on
the driver's door trim panel to return
the tilt/telescopic steering
column/wheel to programmed
positions. See “Driver Memory Seat”
in this section.
WARNING!
Do not adjust the steering
column/wheel while driving.
Adjusting the steering column/wheel
while driving could cause the driver to
lose control of the vehicle. Be sure the
steering column/wheel is adjusted
before driving your vehicle. Failure to
follow this warning may result in
serious injury or death.
Heated Steering Wheel
(optional) The steering wheel contains a heating
element inside the rim that helps
warm driver’s hands by cold weather.
The heated steering wheel has only
one temperature setting. Once turned
on, this function will operate for
approximately 58 to 70 minutes
before automatically shutting off. The heated steering wheel can shut
off early or may not turn on when the
steering wheel is already warm.
The heating steering wheel command
is in the “Climate” screen of MTC+.
See “Air Conditioning Controls” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls” for further details.
NOTE:
The engine must be running for the
heated steering wheel to operate.
• Touch the “Climate” softkey located
on the lower part of the MTC+
display.
• When the heating function is in the
off state, soft-key is not highlighted.
• Within 15 seconds, touch the heated
steering wheel soft-key to turn on
the function.Understanding the Vehicle

• Within 15 seconds, touch the heated
steering wheel soft-key a second
time to turn it off.
WARNING!
• Persons with low skin sensitivity
because of advanced age, chronic
illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury,
medication, alcohol use, exhaustion
or other physical conditions must be
careful when using the seat heater. It
may cause irritation even at low
temperatures, especially if used for
long periods of time.
• Do not place anything on the
steering wheel that insulates against
heat, such as a blanket or steering
wheel covers of any type and
material. This may cause the steering
wheel heater to overheat. Adjustable Pedals (if
equipped) The adjustable pedals system is
designed to allow greater range of
pedals positions enabling driver
comfort with regard to the steering
wheel tilt and the seat position.
This feature allows the brake and
accelerator pedals to move toward or
away from the driver’s feet.
The switch is located on the front side
of the driver's seat cushion shield.
Press the switch downward to move
the pedals forward (toward the front
of the vehicle).
Lift the switch upward to move the
pedals rearward (toward the driver).
WARNING!
Do not adjust the pedals position while the vehicle is moving. You could
lose control and have an accident.
Always adjust the pedals position
while the vehicle is parked.
The following messages will be
displayed
if the
driver is attempting to
adjust the pedals when the system is
locked out:
• “Adjustable Pedals Unavailable
While Reversing”;
• or “Adjustable Pedals Unavailable
While Cruise Engaged”.
NOTE:
Use your key fob (RKE) transmitter or
the memory buttons on the driver's
door trim panel to return the
adjustable pedals to programmed
positions. See “Driver Memory Seat” in
section “Understanding the Vehicle”
for further information.
CAUTION!
Do not place any object under the
adjustable pedals or obstruct their
movements as it may cause damage to
the pedal controls. Pedal movement
may become limited if there is an
obstruction in the adjustable pedal's
path.Understanding the Vehicle

Daytime Running Lights (DRL) The lighting system uses the same
high or low intensity headlamps LED,
respectively, for the DRL lights and
front position lights.
DRL lights will turn on when the
twilight sensor is in “DAY” mode, the
engine is running and the light switch
is in
or “AUTO” position.
If a turn signal is activated, the DRL
LED on the same side of the vehicle
switches in position light function for
the duration of the turn signal
activation. Once the turn signal is
deactivated, the DRL LED will light up
again.
NOTE:
On Canadian vehicles DRL are always
on. On USA vehicles, the DRL lights
can be turned on and off using the
MTC+ System, see “MTC+ Settings” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls” for further information.
“Full-LED” Headlight with
Cornering Function These headlamps combine the
cornering function to the “Full-LED”
technology consisting of an additional
LED module which turns on when two
conditions occurs: the driver turns the steering wheel or the driver activates
the turn indicator. The cornering
function will illuminate the corner to
enhance the visibility to the driver as
long as speed will be lower than 25
mph (40 km/h).
“Full-LED” Technology
This technology creates headlights
with a simpler construction and a
more compact size compared to those
equipped with traditional or Xenon
light bulbs.
Other advantages are:
• a clearer light beam, with a cool
white tone that allows a better
perception of the contrasts thus
making the night vision more
efficient and less tiring;
• a longer duration equivalent at least
to that of the vehicle;
• a reduced current consumption. These features positively affect some
vehicle management economy aspects
by eliminating/reducing the light bulb
replacements and help limit fuel
consumption.
Automatic High Beam (for
versions/markets, where
provided) The Automatic High Beam headlight
control system provides increased
forward lighting at night by
automating high beam control
through the use of the forward-facing
digital camera located behind the
rear-view mirror, which is the same
one used for example by the Lane
Keeping Assist - LKA system on
vehicles with ADAS systems.
This camera detects the environmental
luminosity, the headlamps of
oncoming vehicles and the tail lamps
of proceding vehicles in the front
area. In these cases, the system
automatically switches from high
beams to low beams until the
approaching vehicle is out of view.
Furthermore, the digital camera is
able to detect the urban areas and the
inhabited centers and to turn off the
high beams when driving near of one
of them.Understanding the Vehicle

To activate lane change function, tap
the lever up or down once, without
moving beyond the detent. The turn
signals (right or left) will flash three
times then automatically turn off.
This function is useful when
overtaking or changing lanes.
NOTE:
• If either light remains on and does
not flash, or flashes at a fast rate,
check for a defective outside light. If
an indicator on the instrument
cluster fails while moving the lever,
then the turn indicator could be
defective.
• The message that a turn signal is on
will appear in the instrument cluster
and a continuous chime will sound if
the vehicle is driven more than 1 mile
(1.6 km) with either turn signal on. High Beams and Flashing
To switch on the high beams with the
light switch in headlamp
or
“AUTO” position, shift the
multifunction lever onward.
The blue telltale
will illuminate on
the tachometer.
By pulling the lever backward (toward
the steering wheel) you switch off the
high beams and switch on the low
beams. You can signal another vehicle with
your headlights by lightly pulling the
multifunction lever toward you. This
will turn on the high beams headlights
until the lever is released.
Flashing occurs also with lights off
(lights switch in position “0”) if the
ignition switch is RUN position.
CAUTION!
The high beams can only be switched
on manually by pushing the
multifunction lever forward.
WARNING!
If the high beams are activated, they
will turn on automatically every time
the low beams are switched on either
manually or automatically. WeUnderstanding the Vehicle
