Reset Auto-Up/Down
Should the auto-up/down feature stop
working, the window probably needs
to be reset.
To reset auto-up/down, pull the
window switch up to close the
window completely and push the
window switch down to open the
window completely.
If You have to Disconnect the
Battery
Before disconnecting the battery,
lower the side windows by at least 1-2
in (4-5 cm) to avoid damaging the soft
top strip when opening and closing
the door.
When the battery is connected, this
operation is performed automatically
when the door is opened and closed.
The windows must remain lowered
until the charged battery is
reconnected. If the battery is
completely discharged when the
windows are fully raised, only open
the door if absolutely necessary, with
the utmost care; do not close the door
again until it is possible to lower the
window.
Open and Close the Trunk
Lid
Opening
The trunk compartment lid can be
opened from inside or outside the
vehicle.
Button which opens the lid from
inside, is located to the left of the
steering wheel.
It can only be operated when the key
is removed from the ignition switch or
turned toSTOP (OFF)orACCposition.
To open the trunk compartment lid
from outside, press button on the
radio control case: this opens the lock
and the trunk lid rises slightly.To open the trunk lid from the
outside, when the security alarm is
deactivated and the key is inside the
vehicle, simply press the button
underneath the license plate light
frame.
To avoid accidental activation while
the vehicle is moving, it is only
possible to open the trunk
compartment when the key is
removed from the ignition switch or
turned toSTOP (OFF)orACCposition.

Calibration Selection
The driver can select, in relation to
road surface conditions, vehicle speed,
driving style and comfort, one of the
two calibration levels provided by the
system: normal or sports-style.
•Normal calibration, active when
SPORT drive mode is disabled
("SPORT" button not pressed), favors
comfort and higher driving stability
with low and average grip
conditions.
•Sport-style calibration, active when
SPORT drive mode is enabled
("SPORT" button pressed) , favors
wheel drive and permits a
dynamic-style driving with optimal
road holding.
Whenever the engine is started, the
system automatically activates
NORMAL drive mode, even if SPORT
drive mode was selected before the
engine was last turned off.
The sport-style calibration can be
selected only with the key in the
ignition switch inMAR (ON)position
and it is enabled by pressing button
"SPORT", even while driving.
When SPORT drive mode is activated,
the word “SPORT” on the instrument
cluster display and the LED on the
button illuminate.WARNING!
SPORT drive mode should not be
activated if the road surface is rough
or slippery.
The electronic suspension control
system works in combination with the
ESC system.
When the suspension is set to normal
calibration, stability is increased under
medium and low grip conditions,
while when it is set to sport-style
calibration, the ESC system optimizes a
sportier driving.
WARNING!
In low- and medium-grip conditions
(e.g., rain, snow, ice, sand, etc.) it is
advisable not to use SPORT drive
mode, even with the ESC system
enabled.
Malfunction Indicators
If one or more electric components in
the system prove to be malfunctioning
while driving, the ECU illuminates the
amber warning light accompanied
by the message “Check suspensions”
on the display. In addition, the ECU
calibrates the shock absorbers to apreset value, thus ensuring a safe
vehicle set up.
Should the malfunction involve one
shock absorber only, this will no
longer be controlled by the ECU and
will therefore remain set as it was
when the fault occurred. It is
therefore possible for one of the four
shock absorbers to work with a fixed
calibration, different from that of the
other ones.
In any case, safe and secure vehicle
driving is always ensured at low
speeds.
CAUTION!
In the event of a malfunction in the
suspension control electronic system,
which will be indicated by the
illumination of the amber warning
light on the display while driving,
keep a moderate speed and have the
vehicle checked as soon as possible by
anAuthorized Maserati Dealer.
If a malfunction occurs while driving,
and this is signaled by the illumination
of the
amber warning light on the
display, it is advisable to stop the
vehicle as soon as possible, turn the
key in the ignition switch toSTOP
(OFF)position and then restart the
engine.

• air recirculation.
All the functions listed above can be
modified manually, i.e. the user can
select one or more of these functions
as desired, using the control panel.
The manual selections always have
priority over the automatic ones and
are memorized until the user chooses
the automatic control again.
When a function has been set
manually, the other automatic
functions will not be affected.
The following parameters/functions
can be set/modified manually:
• left-hand/right-hand side air
temperature;
• fan speed;
• air distribution on 7 positions
(left-hand/ right-hand);
• compressor activation;
• single/dual-zone distribution
priority;
• defrosting/defogging function (MAX

operate in fully automatic mode so
that the temperatures set will be
reached as quickly as possible.
In this condition, manual operations
will activate the following functions:
• MONO button7adjusts the air
temperature and distribution in the
two heating/air conditioning areas;
• REAR button12enables/disables the

• button11activates/deactivates the
heated rear window.By altering any other parameter
manually, such as the air temperature
or distribution, these features switch
from the fully automatic control mode
(FULL AUTO) to manual mode (AUTO).
On starting the vehicle after stopping,
the various parameters are controlled
manually or automatically, depending
on the options selected by the user
before turning the engine off.
Therefore all the manual operations
performed before the vehicle is turned
off are stored and maintained for the
next start up.
This also applies to the OFF function
