Park Assist
To assist the driver during parking
maneuvers, the vehicle is equipped
with four sensors housed in the rear
bumper and four sensors in the front
bumper.
Besides the use of the sensors available
on the bumpers, the vehicle is also
equipped with a rear parking camera.For more details, see chapter "Rear
Parking Camera" in this section.
During parking maneuvers, the
parking sensors provide the driver with
information on the distance between
obstacles found behind and in front of
the vehicle. The information about the
obstacle distance is given to the driver
by means of acoustic and visual signals.
The acoustic signals generated by the
system add to the driver’s field of
vision, allowing him to avoid hitting
any obstacles during maneuvers.
WARNING!
•However, the driver remains
responsible during parking
maneuvers and in other potentially
dangerous situations. The system
has actually been designed only as a
supplementary aid during parking
maneuvers, since it allows the driver
to detect obstacles outside his field
of vision.
•Extreme caution is required in case
of obstacles whose shape and
volume are susceptible to be
incorrectly detected. When starting
the vehicle after parking, these
obstacles might not be detected if
they are already close to the bumper.Always stop when the acoustic
signal becomes steady.
Stop & Go Feature
This function is enabled by the
manufacturer and it can be disabled by
the MTC+ (see chapter "MTC+
Settings" in section "Dashboard
Instruments and Controls"), select and
tick the “Stop & Go Parking Sensors”
feature.
When vehicle speed is equal to or
lower than 6 mph (10 km/h), this
function helps the driver under special
traffic conditions as it signals that the
vehicle before you is at a min.
distance.
System with Enabled Stop & Go
Feature
When the "Stop & Go" feature is
enabled through the MTC+, all sensors
are automatically enabled with the key
in the ignition switch turned toMAR
(ON)position, but they are not
displayed on the instrument cluster.
When the R (Reverse) gear is engaged
or an obstacle is detected, the
corresponding detection areas are
displayed on the instrument cluster. As
soon as the R (Reverse) gear is
disengaged, all sensors are still active:
Before Starting

the distance (maximum/average/
minimum) and the position
(front/rear/central/side) of the obstacle
detected.
The color represents the distance,
while the field represents the position.
The green color represents the
maximum distance detected, the
yellow color the medium distance and
the red color the minimum one. The
rear sensors are not shown in the
image on the instrument cluster
display if only the front sensors are
active.
WARNING!
For the system to operate correctly the
sensors positioned on the bumper
must be kept clean (remove any mud,
dirt, snow or ice).
Sensor Range
The sensors allow the system to
monitor the front and rear of the
vehicle; they are positioned so as to
monitor the central and lateral zones
at the front and at the rear of the
vehicle.
In the event of an obstacle located in a
central area, this will be detected at
distances of less than 35 in (0,9 m) at
the front and 59 in (1,50 m) at the rear,
depending on the type of obstacle and
its dimensions.
If the obstacle is located in a lateral
position, it will be detected at
distances of less than 31 in (0,8 m).
Failure Indicators
The system ECU checks all the
components every time R (Reverse)
gear is engaged.
In the event that the parking sensors
fail, the relative
warning light and
message illuminate on the instrument
cluster display.
In the event of a failure signal, stop
the vehicle and turn the key in the
ignition switch toSTOP (OFF)position.
Then try cleaning the sensors or
moving the vehicle away from any
possible ultrasound sources (e.g.
pneumatic truck brakes or pneumatichammers) and rotate the key to the
MAR (ON)position. So, if the
operating failure cause has been
eliminated, system full operation will
be recovered. If however, the failure
beep continues, contact anAuthorized
Maserati Dealerto have the system
checked.
Cleaning the Park Assist
Sensors
When cleaning the sensors, take
special care not to scratch or damage
them; therefore, do not use dry, rough
or hard cloths.
The sensors must be washed with clean
water, possibly adding car shampoo.
Should you need to repaint the
bumper or in case of paint touch-ups
in the sensor area, please contact
exclusively theAuthorized Maserati
Dealer. Incorrect paint application
could affect the parking sensors
operation.
Park Assist System Usage
Precautions
NOTE:
•Jackhammers, large trucks, and other
vibrations could affect the
performance of Park Assist.
Before Starting

62

•Objects such as bicycle carriers,
trailer hitches, etc., must not be
placed within 12 in (30 cm) from the
rear bumper while driving the
vehicle. Failure to do so can result in
the system misinterpreting a close
object as a sensor problem, causing
the service Park Assist message to be
displayed in the instrument cluster.
CAUTION!
• Park Assist is only a parking aid and
it is unable to recognize every
obstacle, including small obstacles.
Parking curbs might only be
temporarily detected or not
detected at all. Obstacles located
above or below the sensors will not
be detected when they are in close
proximity.
• The vehicle must be driven slowly
when using Park Assist in order to be
able to stop in time when an
obstacle is detected. When backing
up, it is recommended that the
driver looks over his/her shoulder
when using Park Assist.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing
up even when using the Park Assist
system. Always check carefully behind
your vehicle, look behind you, and be
sure to check for pedestrians, animals,
other vehicles, obstructions, and blind
spots before backing up. You are
responsible for safety and must
continue to pay attention to your
surroundings. Failure to do so can
result in serious injury or death.
Rear Parking Camera
Your vehicle is equipped with a rear
parking camera that allows you to see
an image on the MTC+ screen of the
rear surroundings of your vehicle
whenever the shift lever is put into R
(Reverse).
When “Parkview Backup Camera
Delay” mode is enabled on MTC+, the
rear view image shall be displayed for
up to 10 seconds after shifting out of
R (Reverse).
The rear parking camera is located on
the rear of the vehicle above the rear
license plate.
When the shift lever is shifted out of R
(Reverse), the rear camera mode is
exited and the navigation or audio
screen appears again.
When displayed, dynamic grid lines (if
the function is set to “MTC+ Settings”)
Before Starting
2
63

will illustrate the width of the vehicle
while a dashed center-line will indicate
the center of the vehicle to assist with
parking or aligning to a hitch/receiver.
The dynamic grid lines will show
separate zones in different color that
will help indicate the distance to the
rear of the vehicle.
The following table shows the
approximate distances for each zone
and color:
Zone Distance to the rear of
the vehicle
Red 11-12in(28-30cm)
Yellow 12 - 78 in (30 cm-2m)
Green 78 - 157 in (2-4m)
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when
reversing even when using the
rearview camera. Always check
carefully behind your vehicle, and be
sure to check for pedestrians, animals,
other vehicles, obstructions, or blind
spots before reversing. You are
responsible for the safety of your
surroundings and must continue to be
careful while reversing. Failure to do
so can result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
• To avoid vehicle damage, the rear
parking camera should only be used
as a parking aid, as the rear camera is
unable to view every obstacle or
object in your drive path.
• To avoid vehicle damage, the vehicle
must be driven slowly when using
the rear parking camera to be able
to stop in time when an obstacle is
seen. It is recommended that the
driver looks frequently over his/her
shoulder when using this system.
NOTE:
If snow, ice, mud, or any other
substance builds up on the camera
lens, clean the lens, rinse with water,
and dry with a soft cloth. Do not cover
the lens.
