To Reconnect the Battery
NOTE:
When the battery cables have been
disconnected and the trunk lid has
been locked, it is necessary to pull the
emergency release cable in order to
re-open it. To access the trunk and
operate the emergency release (see
“Open and Close the Trunk Lid”
chapter in section “Before Starting”).
CAUTION!
• It is essential when replacing the
cables on the battery that the
positive cable is precisely attached to
the positive pole (+) and the
negative cable is attached to the
negative pole (–).
• Cable clamps should be tight on the
terminal poles and free of corrosion.
After the battery has been
disconnected and re-connected and
before starting the engine it is
necessary to proceed as follows:
• Unlock and lock the doors using the
radio control buttons on the key.
• Unlock the trunk lid with the radio
control button on the key and then
lock it manually.• Check the seats are working
correctly: in the event of
malfunction, carry out the
initialization operations described in
the chapter “Front Seats” of the
section “Understanding the Vehicle”.
• Initialize the climate control system
by activating the compressor as
described in chapter "Air
Conditioning Controls" of the section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”.
• Turn on the MTC+ and set the date
and time (see “MTC+ Setting” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
• Lift, release and lift again the lever

about 10 seconds and then go off.
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 know 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

Useful Advice to Extend
Battery Life
When parking the vehicle, make sure
that the doors, front, rear lids and
flaps are properly closed. All interior
lights should be off.
When the engine is turned off, do not
keep the connected devices switched
on for a long time (such as radio,
hazard warning flashers, fan, etc.).
CAUTION!
If the battery charge remains below
50% for a long period of time, it will
be damaged due to sulfation; its
performance and starting power will
be reduced and it will be more subject
to freezing (this can happen even at
14°F/-10°C).
We recommend you to have the
battery charge condition checked,
preferably at the beginning of the
cold season, to prevent the electrolyte
from freezing.
This check should be carried out more
frequently if the vehicle is used mainly
for short trips or if it is equipped with
power absorbing devices that remain
permanently on even when the
ignition switch is off. This appliesabove all if these devices have been
retrofitted ("Aftermarket" services).
If the vehicle is not used for long
periods of time, please see “Vehicle
Stored for Long Periods” in this
section.
Battery Recharge
WARNING!
The process of charging or recharging
the battery produces hydrogen, a
flammable gas that can explode and
cause serious injuries. When charging
or recharging the battery, follow the
recommended precautions at all
times.
•Before using a charger device
always check that this tool is
suitable for the installed battery,
with constant voltage (lower than
14.8 V) and low amperage

Battery Statement
Battery Statement Status of
Charge
To avoid problems with ignition and/or
the electrical system in general when
you are driving, the battery charge
status is constantly maintained and
guaranteed by the vehicle's recharge
circuit; the main component of which
is the alternator. This circuit is only
able to supply voltage to the battery
when the vehicle is traveling.
The
warning light on the
instrument cluster (see “Instrument
Cluster” in section “Dashboard
Instruments and Controls”), will
indicate any malfunctions in the
recharge circuit or an insufficient
battery charge status (flashing).
The vehicle is fitted with advanced
electronic systems, such as, for
example, the alarm system and various
electronic control modules, which
consume power even when the key in
the ignition switch is in theSTOP (OFF)
position and the vehicle is not being
used.
Therefore, it is fundamental that the
battery is properly charged to ensure
that the engine starts properly andthat all the electrical/electronic systems
in the vehicle work efficiently.
Maintaining Battery Charge
If you perform short daily trips
(approximately 10 miles/16 km), which
correspond to an annual total of 4000
miles/6000 km, or when the vehicle is
not going to be used for one week or
more, Maserati recommends
connecting the vehicle to a battery
charger, to save you the trouble of
having to recharge the battery (see
“Battery Charge Maintainer
Operation” in this chapter).
The battery charge maintainer will
keep the battery charged properly and
at the correct voltage levels required
by the systems and devices in the
vehicle.
Before using the battery charge
maintainer, carefully follow the
instructions provided.
If you do not use a battery charge
maintainer to prevent the battery
from going dead when you are not
going to use the vehicle for long
periods of time, you need to check and
recharge the battery at least once
every three weeks. Make this check if
you perform short daily trips
(approximately 10 mi/16 km) which
correspond to an annual total of 4000
Maintenance and Care
7
270

miles/6000 km. Please note that
allowing the battery to go dead
repeatedly can cause premature wear
on the internal cells and greatly
reduce their life, leading to problems
with the ignition system and other
electrical/electronic systems.
TheAuthorized Maserati Dealeris
available to advise you on how to
recharge your battery correctly and
give you useful information on battery
care and maintenance.
NOTE:
TheAuthorized Maserati Dealercan
provide you with any information
about the Maserati approved “Battery
Charger and Conditioner”, available in
the “Genuine Accessories” range.
WARNING!
The process of charging or recharging
the battery produces hydrogen, a
dangerous gas that can explode and
cause serious injuries. When charging
or recharging the battery, follow the
recommended precautions at all
times:
•always charge or recharge the
battery in a well-ventilated
environment;•never charge or recharge a battery
that has frozen: it can explode due
to hydrogen trapped inside the ice
crystals;
•ensure that any sparks or open
flames are nowhere near the battery
while it is charging;
•before using a charger to charge or
maintain the battery charge status,
carefully follow the instructions
provided to ensure the charger is
connected to the battery safely and
correctly.
Battery Charge Maintainer
Operation
Charge Maintainer Socket
