recirculation in winter, in rainy
weather or humid climate is not
recommended because it may cause
window fogging.
• Interior fogging on the windshield
can be quickly removed by fast
defrosting/defogging. The “Mix”
mode can be used to maintain a clear
windshield and provide sufficient
heating. If side window fogging
becomes a problem increase blower
speed.
NOTE:
• Recirculation mode without A/C
should not be used for long periods
of time, as fogging may occur.
• If inside the passenger compartment
there are conditions of high
temperature and humidity, when the A/C compressor is switched on (A/C
softkey illuminated on MTC+ display
or LED on climate control panel A/C
button ON) there may be some cold
steam at ventilation port outlet: this
situation is normal and does not
indicate air conditioning system
malfunction.
• Automatic Temperature Controls
(ATC) will automatically adjust the
climate control settings to prevent or
eliminate window fogging on the
front windshield.
• Make sure the A/C system air intake
grille, located under the bonnet
directly in front of the windshield, is
free of obstructions such as leaves or
other objects. Leaves collected in the
air intake may reduce airflow, and if
they enter the plenum, they could
plug the water drains. In winter
make sure the air intake is clear of
ice, slush, and snow.
• The temperature can be displayed in
U.S. or Metric. units by selecting the
“Units” customer programmable
feature. See “MTC+ Settings” in this
section.
• Any time you store your vehicle or
keep it stationary (i.e., during
vacation) for two weeks or more, runDashboard Instruments and Controls

the air conditioning system at idle
for about five minutes in the fresh
air by high blower setting. This will
ensure adequate system lubrication
and minimize the possibility of
compressor damage when the
system is started again.
A/C Filter The climate control system filters
outside air containing dust, pollen and
some odors. Strong odors cannot be
totally removed by A/C filter at the
entrance of the air climate system. See
“Maintenance Procedures” in section
“Maintenance and Care” for filter
replacement instructions. Phone and Voice Controls
on Steering Wheel The commands on the right side of the
steering wheel activate/deactivate the
phone mode (
) and the Voice
Recognition (
) controls functions.
These functions are only available
when one or more Bluetooth ®
compatible mobile phones are paired
with the MTC+ System connection: to
pair a phone and to learn all available
functions refer to the MTC+ guide.
NOTE:
On the Maserati website, at
www.maserati.com , or through an
Authorized Maserati Dealer you may
consult the list of telephones that are
compatible with the MTC+, and their
level of compatibility. The voice command communication
system is fully integrated with the
vehicle's audio system.
The volume can be adjusted from the
upper knob on the central console
(see “Infotainment System” in this
section or from the steering wheel
radio controls (see “Audio Controls” in
this section).
The system will automatically mute
the radio when using the phone
mode.
