Maserati Dealeras the emergency
starting procedure will have to be
carried out every time you want to

Procedure
If your vehicle has a discharged
battery it can be jump-started using a
set of jumper cables and a battery of
another vehicle or by using a portable
battery booster. It is necessary to have
proper jumper cables in order to
connect the booster battery to the
remote posts of the discharged
battery. Booster cables have usually
positive and negative terminal clamps
and are identified by a different
sheath color (red = positive, black =
negative). Maserati provides on
request jumper cables created for its
models and content in a practical case.
NOTE:
TheAuthorized Maserati Dealercan
provide you with information about
the “Maserati Jumper Cables Kit”,
available in the “Genuine Accessories”
range.

done improperly so please follow the
procedures in this section carefully.NOTE:
When using a portable battery
booster pack, follow the battery
manufacturer’s operating instructions
and precautions.
CAUTION!
• To jump start a vehicle do not use a
portable battery, a booster pack or
any other booster source with a
system voltage greater than 14 Volts
or damage to the battery, starter
motor, alternator or electrical system
of the vehicle with the discharged
battery may occur.
• Do not use a battery charger for
emergency starting under any
circumstances. You could damage
the electronic systems, particularly
the control units managing the
ignition and fuel supply functions.
