• Re-insert the dipstick completely and
remove: the oil level should maintain
between the MIN and MAX
reference ranges (SAFE range).
• If a refilling is necessary, unscrew the
filler neck cap. • Adding 1.5 Quarts / 1.4 Litres (V8
Engine), 1.1 Quarts / 1 Litre (V6
Engine) of oil when the level is at
the bottom of the SAFE range will
result in the level being at the top of
the SAFE range.
• Return the cap and dipstick to their
position and wait for a few minutes
to allow the oil to reach the oil pan. • Check the level again.
• Refit the inspection cover (V8
Engine).
Engine Oil Filter Replacement
The engine oil filter should be
replaced with a new filter at every oil
change.
Contact the Authorized Maserati
Dealer to perform this service.
Automatic Transmission Oil Check
Contact the Authorized Maserati
Dealer for the oil level check.
Fluid Level Check for Coolant
Transmission System
The coolant contained in the bottle of
this system is the same as the one used
for the cooling system of the engine.
For the preparation of the mixture of
water and antifreeze and for the
control of the level, proceed as shown
in the “Engine Coolant Level Check”

• Clean and protect polished metal
parts with special products available
on the market.
• Cover the vehicle with a long cloth
in breathable fabric (available from
an Authorized Maserati Dealer ). Do
not use thick plastic sheets, which do
not allow the humidity on the
vehicle surface to evaporate.
• Inflate the tires up to a pressure
which must be 14.5 psi (1 bar) higher
than the normally prescribed one,
and check it at regular intervals.
NOTE:
The Authorized Maserati Dealer can
provide you with any information
about the available “Indoor and
Outdoor Car Covers”, available in the
“Genuine Accessories” range.
WARNING!
The tire pressure must be brought
back to the prescribed value before
reusing the vehicle (see “Tire Inflation
Pressure” in section “Features and
Specifications”). Restarting the Vehicle Before restarting the vehicle after a
long period of inactivity, we
recommend that you carry out the
following operations.
• Check the tires for pressure and for
any damages, cuts or cracks. If this is
the case, have them replaced.
• Do not dry-rub the external surface
of the vehicle: use a damp cloth.
• Visually inspect if there are any fluid
leaks (oil, brake and clutch fluid,
engine coolant etc.).
• Have the engine oil and filter
replaced.
• Check the fluid levels in the brake
system, as well as the engine coolant
level.
• Check the air filters and have them
replaced if necessary.
• Reconnect the battery after checking
the charge status (refer to
“Maintenance-Free Battery” in this
section) and perform the initializing
procedure if applicable. You can
consult the paragraph “Battery
Reconnection” in this chapter for
further information on this subject. • With the transmission in N (Neutral),
let the engine idle for several
minutes.
WARNING!
The engine idle must be performed
outdoors. Exhaust gases contain
carbon monoxide which is strongly
toxic and potentially lethal.
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
