following modes.
• ParkSense (Park Assist)
The park assist system will scan for
objects behind and in front of the
vehicle when the transmission shift
lever is in R (Reverse) and the
vehicle speed is less than 7.5 mph
(12 km/h). The system can be
enabled with “Sound” only,
“Sound+Display”, or turned “Off”.
See “Park Assist (optional)” in
section “Before Starting” for
further information.
• Front Sensors Active in Drive
If this feature is active, when driver
takes shift lever from P (Park) or N
(Neutral) to D (Drive), front parking
sensors are activated. If this feature
is not active, when driver takes shift lever from P (Park) or N (Neutral) to
D (Drive), front parking sensors are
NOT activated.

Clock lighting works in the same way
as instrument and controls
backlighting (refer to “Lights” in
section “Understanding the Vehicle”). Air Conditioning Controls The vehicle is equipped with an
automatic dual-zone air conditioning
system that allows to adjust separately
the temperature and the airflow
distribution in the left and in the right
zone of the passenger compartment,
according to the requests of the driver
and the front passenger.
A humidity sensor, positioned on the
inner surface of the windshield, over
the rear view mirror, allows the A/C
system to prevent/eliminate fogging
of the windshield and side windows.
The best efficacy in preventing
fogging is obtained by selecting the
“AUTO” function, described later.
A dual zone solar sensor helps to
achieve the best comfort in presence
of solar radiation.
Upon request, the vehicle can be
equipped with an additional
automatic dual-zone air conditioning
system installed in the central console,
between the front seats. The
additional dual-zone module, can be
operated by the rear passengers (see
“Four-zone Climate Control
(optional)” in this chapter), by means
of the control panel at the end of
central console, but also by the front passengers using the soft-keys on
MTC+ display.
Dual Zone Climate Controls This system can be operated by using
the controls of the automatic climate
control panel on the dashboard, or
the softkeys on the MTC+ display
when “Climate” mode is selected.
In the "Climate" screen of the MTC+,
the front seats and steering wheel
comfort setting soft-keys may be
present (optional equipments).
The “OFF” state of the front seats

function will cause the ATC to switch
into manual mode: so the “AUTO” LED
on the button and the MTC+ soft-key
will turn off. With engine off, the
blower will run at minimum speed (1)
and can be increased manually: with
engine on, the blower speed will
gradually increase to the higher speed
(8). MAX defrosting/demisting shall
also involve REAR defrosting/demisting
function. If this function is turned off
the climate system will return to the
previous setting, switching on the A/C
(“A/C” LED on the button and the
MTC+ soft-key illuminated). 10. REAR defrosting/demisting
Press the
button or the MTC+
soft-key to turn on the rear window

The rear window defroster and the
heated external mirrors automatically
turn off after 10 minutes.
CAUTION!
Failure to observe the following
cautions may cause damage to the rear
windows defroster:
• Use care when washing the inside of
the rear window. Do not use abrasive
window cleaners on the interior
surface of the window. Use a soft
cloth and a mild washing solution,
wiping parallel to the heating
elements. Labels can be peeled off
after soaking with warm water.

It is dangerous to run the engine in an
enclosed area. The engine consumes
oxygen and discharges carbon
dioxide, carbon monoxide and other
toxic gases in the atmosphere.
WARNING!
California Proposition 65
Operating, servicing and maintaining
a passenger vehicle or off-road vehicle
can expose you to chemicals including
such as, engine exhaust, carbon
monoxide, phthalates and lead, that
which are known to the State of
California to cause cancer and birth
defects or other reproductive harm. To
minimize exposure, avoid breathing
exhaust, do not idle the engine except
as necessary, service your vehicle in a
well-ventilated area and wear gloves
or wash your hands frequently when
servicing your vehicle. For more

safety system and is not designed to
prevent accidents.
The ACC allows driver to keep Cruise
Control active in limited or moderate
traffic conditions with no need to
constantly restore the Cruise Control.
The ACC uses a radar sensor, located
on the front grille behind the trident,
and the forward-facing camera behind
the internal rear-view mirror to detect
the presence of a vehicle ahead at a
close distance and moving in the same
direction.
This vehicle, in this chapter, will be
indicated as "target vehicle" or
"vehicle ahead".
NOTE:
• If the sensor detects no vehicle
ahead, the ACC system will maintain
set steady speed.
• If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead, the ACC system automatically
kicks in by slightly accelerating or
braking (to avoid exceeding the
initially set speed) so that the vehicle
keeps present distance, trying to
adapt to the speed of the detected
vehicle ahead.
WARNING!
• The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is
designed to increase vehicle driving
comfort. It must not be considered
as a means of replacing the required
attention of the driver. The driver is
always required to drive carefully.
The driver is always required to pay
utmost attention to driving
conditions (road, traffic, weather)
and style (speed, distance from
sensed vehicle ahead, brake use).
Driver has the full responsibility of
the vehicle therefore his attention is
crucial to keeping vehicle control, in
particular when approaching curves
and situations with heavy traffic.
Failure to follow these warnings can
result in a collision and death or
serious personal injury.
• In some driving scenarios, the ACC
could have detection problems. In
such cases, the ACC could kick in late or unexpectedly. The driver must be
careful since his/her intervention
could be necessary.
• It is always the driver’s responsibility
to obey speed limits and to keep
minimum legal distance to the
preceding vehicle.
• ACC system can decelerate only with
limited braking, it cannot execute
emergency braking.
The ACC system:
•
Does not activate/react in the
presence of pedestrians, bicycles,
incoming traffic from the opposite
direction and steady objects such as a
vehicle stuck in a traffic jam.
• Is meant for the use on highways and
well-built roads, not for city traffic or
mountain roads.
• May not have enough time to react
and/or decelerate sufficiently on
vehicles when lane is changed too
quickly or the relative speed is too
high. In such cases the driver has to
react appropriately and without any
acoustic/visual and warning.
• Cannot consider road, traffic and
weather conditions and might prove
limited when visibility is poor.
• Does not always fully recognize
complex driving conditions and thisDriving

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.
