Use
• When the signal of the device to be
activated reaches its operating
range, press the dedicated
HomeLink
®button.
• The LED remains on while the signal
is being transmitted.
The devices controlled through the
HomeLink
®function can always be
activated using the original remote
controls.
Should the so programmed
HomeLink
®not activate the system to
be controlled, this may be due to the
fact that this system is controlled by a
remote control with a rolling code.
A rolling activation code can be
recognized in the following ways:
• consulting the instruction manual
provided with the device to be
controlled;
• despite the fact that the HomeLink
®
programming procedure has been
carried out correctly, the HomeLink
function does not activate the
device;
• holding the dedicated HomeLink
®
button pressed down, the LED briefly
flashes fast and then remains on for
2 seconds; this sequence is repeated
for about 20 seconds.
Programming Devices
Controlled by Rolling Code
• Locate the specific setting button by
consulting the user manual of the
system to be controlled. This button
is normally located on the motor
which drives the device.
• Press the button and, in normal

NOTE:
Normally, after this operation you
have 30 seconds to start the next one.
• Briefly press the HomeLink
®button
you have chosen to control the
device.
• Press it a second time; when it is
released the operation should be
completed. For some types of
motors, the button might have to be
pressed a third time.
Reprogramming an Individual
Button
If you wish to program activation of a
new system on an already used
HomeLink
®button, proceed as
follows:

Adjustable and fixed air vents allow
passengers to achieve the optimal
comfort conditions.
Fixed Air Vents
• The fixed vents, positioned on the
upper part of the dashboard,
beneath the windshield are meant
to guarantee the defogging and
defrosting of the windshield and the
side windows.• The fixed vents under the dashboard
aim to ventilate the lower part of
the passenger compartment.
Adjustable Air Vents
• The adjustable vents are located at
the center and at the side ends of
the dashboard. They have the
purpose of ventilating the upper
part of the passenger compartment.
There are also adjustable vents
placed at the rear end of the central
console. These vents can be adjusted
in vertical and horizontal direction,
by operating on the central handle
1, indicated in the following
pictures. The rotary control2,
located under each vent, allows to
partialize the air flow.NOTE:
In order not to obstruct the air
conditioning inlet, the defrosting or
the defogging function of the glass
surfaces, avoid covering vents with
clothing or other items.

Sport Skyhook Suspension
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
The electronic system controlling the
vehicle suspension uses the
sophisticated on board sensors and is
aimed at optimizing vehicle
performance.
The system is capable of constantly
monitoring suspension damping by
means of the actuator fitted on each
shock absorber (Skyhook type). This
way, the shock absorber setting is
suited to the road surface conditions
and vehicle dynamics, thus improving
passenger comfort and road-holding.
By pressing button “SPORT” on the
central console the driver can choose,
even while driving, a normal or
dynamic-type setting for the
suspension, depending on their own
driving style.This way, the system operates with a
shock absorber “softer” setting in
NORMAL drive mode, and a “harder”
setting if SPORT drive mode is selected
(see “Drive Mode” in section
“Driving”).
The strategy used by the system
controlling suspension damping is
aimed at reducing the vertical
oscillations of the vehicle (rolling and
pitching) to a minimum.
The activation of SPORT drive mode
sets the suspension for sports-style
driving and acts on the ASR and
gearbox systems as well, modifying
their setting for dynamic-style driving.
System Components
The system is controlled by an ECU
which manages the solenoid valves on
each shock absorber in response to the
sensor signals, thus adjusting
suspension damping and setting.The sensors which enable the ECU to
calculate the vehicle speed, vertical
and side acceleration, as well as the
instantaneous braking system pressure,
thereby controlling suspension
damping, are the following:
• front left-hand vertical acceleration
sensor;
• front right-hand vertical acceleration
sensor;
• rear vertical acceleration sensor;
• front left-hand wheel acceleration
sensor;
• front right-hand wheel acceleration
sensor;
• lateral acceleration sensor;
• driving speed sensor;
• brake pedal switch.
Self-diagnostics
Whenever the engine is started, the
system performs a self-diagnostic cycle.
If a malfunction is found, the
amber
warning light is displayed
accompanied by the message “Check
suspensions” (see paragraph
"Malfunction Indicators" in this
chapter).

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.
Understanding the Vehicle

If the malfunction is no longer present
and the
amber warning light on the
display does not illuminate again, the
electronic suspension system will
resume normal operation. On the
other hand, if the problem persists, the
amber warning light on the
instrument cluster display will turn on
again.
In both cases, the system must be
checked by theAuthorized Maserati
Dealer.
The fault found is memorized by the
ECU and can be diagnosed at an
Authorized Maserati Dealereven if it
has disappeared spontaneously.
