In order to activate the wi-fi control
unit, please provide to your
Authorized Maserati Dealer your SIM,
the relative PIN and the access points
(APN) of your provider.
CAUTION!
Refer to your Authorized Maserati
Dealer to activate the wi-fi control unit
and, if necessary, remove or replace it
or the SIM card.
NOTE:
T
o speed up operations of installation
and activation, in addition to the
above, you’ll need to create a new
account by accessing the following
website of the manufacturer of the
system that Maserati has chosen for its
models:
https://signup.autonetmobile.com/.
Wi-fi connectivity covers an area of ca.
100 ft (30 m), in order to avoid
intrusions, the router is supplied with
WEP or WPA2 cryptography.
During activation, to be performed by
your dealer, it is recommended to
enable the security options available
by selecting the cryptographic version (WPA2 is recommended) and inserting
the password. From now on, in order
to connect to the wi-fi control unit, it
will be necessary to insert this
password on each device you intend to
use.
After that, you shall complete the
authentication process and enable
Wireless Security to avoid that
not-authorized users can improperly
access the wi-fi and cause extra costs
charged by the provider on the SIM.
To navigate the internet it is now
necessary to pair the device you intend
to use in the vehicle to the active wi-fi
connection; you can do that by
searching the available wireless
Networks from the "Setting" menu.
Select the wireless Network linked to
your SIM and select "Connect" to start
the connection.
If the auto-search is active for wireless
Networks, every time the device will
be used inside the vehicle or close to it,
it will connect to the set connection.
NOTE:
• For futher information about the
pairing procedure, refer to the
instructions given with your mobile
device.
• For further information about wi-fi
connectivity and the control unit, please contact Client Service at
1-800-977.2107 or write to:
[email protected].
CAUTION!
When selling the vehicle, you should
contact the above mentioned Client
Service to have your device removed
from the list of activated devices
registered in your name. Do not simply
give your control unit password to a
new owner. To avoid improper
internet access in your name and allow
new owner registration you must
de-register with the service provider. A
new owner will not be able to register
the device if it still appears registered
in the prior owner's name. If you are a
subsequent owner, the unit could be
improperly monitored (usage and
location), if it is still registered to a
prior owner.Understanding the Vehicle

Cargo Area WARNING!
To help protect against personal
injury, passengers must not be seated
in the rear cargo area. The rear cargo
space is intended for load carrying
purposes only, not for passengers,
who should sit in seats and use seat
belts.
Vehicle Load Carrying Capacity The load carrying capacity of your
vehicle is shown on the vehicle
emission control label positioned on
the rear driver door's ledge.
The information indicated on the label
concerns passengers and luggage
loading operations. Do not exceed the specified Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or the
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR),
both front and rear.
The GVWR is the total allowable
weight of your vehicle. This includes
driver, passengers, and cargo.
The total load must be limited so that
you do not exceed the GVWR
indicated on the label.
Vehicle Loading WARNING!
• Improper weight distribution can
have an adverse effect on the way
the vehicle steers, handles and the
way the brakes operate.
• Never drive with the trunk lid open.
Exhaust gases can enter the
passenger compartment.
• Do not pile luggage or cargo higher
than the top of the seatback. This
could impair visibility or become
dangerous in a sudden stop or
collision.
The trunk is the most suitable place to
load
bulky and heavy objects onboard
the vehicle. The maximum allowable load on the floor of the trunk is 440 lb
(200 kg).
To load your vehicle properly, store
heavier items below and be sure you
distribute their weight as evenly as
possible.
Stow all loose items securely before
start driving as they could move
during the trip.
Light objects can be stored in the net
pocket on the right side of the trunk.
To fasten heavy and bulky luggage
inside the compartment a luggage net
with hooks anchored to the floor is
available upon request. The hooking
eyelets of the net are positioned on
the floor and on the rear wall of the
trunk.Understanding the Vehicle

NOTE:
The Authorized Maserati Dealer can
provide you with information about
the available “Genuine Accessories”
for the trunk.
Loading with Rear Seatbacks
Folded Down The 60/40 split-folding rear seat with
folding option on the smaller side
only, provides cargo-carrying
versatility.
The seatback fold down easily by
pulling tab between the seatback and
the bolster. The seat folded down, provides a
continuous nearly-flat extension of the
load floor able to accommodate large
sized equipment and objects (such as
the “Maserati Ski and Snowboard
Bag”) that may not fit with the normal
dimensions of the trunk.
Ski and Snowboard Bag Housing
To safely store the Ski and Snowboard
Bag:
• Tilt forward the short seatback side. • Secure the rear hook of the bag to
the eyelet located on the rear wall of
the trunk.
• Wrap the belt around the seat back
of the folded seat and fasten the belt
buckle.
• Tighten the belt as much as necessary
to prevent the bag from moving.
When the seatback is folded to the
upright position, make sure it is
latched by strongly pulling on the top
of the seatback above the seat strap.
WARNING!
• Make sure that the seatback is
securely locked into position. If the
seatback is not securely locked into
position, the seat will not provide
the proper stability for child seats
and/or passengers. An improperlyUnderstanding the Vehicle

• Do not allow small children to
operate the sunroof. Never insert
fingers, other body parts, or any
object through the opening sunroof.
CAUTION!
• In the event of rain, always close the
sunroof to prevent water infiltrations
from staining the fabric/leather
upholstery.
• Do not open the sunroof if there is
ice on it: risk of damage.
Slide Opening Sunroof • Full automatic express opening
Press the right rear button for more
than half second and the sunroof
will open automatically regardless
of any previous position. The

position. During this opening
operation, any movement of the
button will stop the sunroof.
Pinch Protect Feature This feature will detect an obstruction
in the opening of the sunroof during
express close operation. If an
obstruction is detected, the sunroof
will automatically retract. If this occurs,
remove the obstruction then press the
right front button and release to
express close. NOTE:
If three consecutive attempts to close
in express mode the sunroof result in
pinch protect reversals, the fourth
attempt will be manual, with pinch
protect feature disabled.

prevents closing the sunroof, press the
right front button and hold for two
seconds after the reversal occurs. This
allows the sunroof to move toward the
closed position.

Pinch protection is disabled while
pressing the right front button.
Wind Buffeting Wind buffeting can be described as
the perception of pressure or a
helicopter-type sound. Your vehicle
may exhibit wind buffeting with the
windows down, or the sunroof in
certain open or partially open
positions. This is a normal occurrence
and can be minimised. If the buffeting
occurs with the rear windows open,
then open the front and rear windows
together to minimise the buffeting. If
the buffeting occurs with the sunroofUnderstanding the Vehicle

(optional) HomeLink ®
replaces up to three
hand-held transmitters operating the
automatic devices that open garage
doors and gates, enable/disable the
lighting or security systems. The
HomeLink ®
unit is powered by your
vehicle's 12 Volt battery. The
HomeLink ®

• Your motorized door or gate will
open and close while you are
programming the universal
transceiver. Do not program the
transceiver if people, pets or other
objects are in the path of the door
or gate. Only use this transceiver
with a garage door opener that has
a “stop and reverse” feature as
required by Federal safety
standards. This includes most garage
door opener models manufactured
after 1982. Do not use a garage door
opener without these safety
features. Call toll-free 1–800–355–
3515 or, on the Internet at
www.HomeLink.com for safety
information or assistance.
• Vehicle exhaust contains carbon
monoxide, a dangerous gas. Do not
run your vehicle in the garage while
programming the transceiver.
Exhaust gas can cause serious injury
or death.
