(locked/unlocked). The red LEDs
illuminate for 3 seconds after the locks
are engaged and the green LEDs for
the same amount of time when they
are unlocked.
NOTE:
The door LEDs remain illuminated for
approximately 3 seconds and
therefore, in normal conditions, they
are off.
When the security alarm system is
turned on and the doors are locked,
the LEDs on the doors flash.
The radio control device allows you to
operate the centralized opening of all
the doors or of the driver’s door only,
depending on the Maserati TouchControl Plus (MTC+) settings (see
"MTC+ Settings" in section
"Dashboard Instrument and
Controls").
If one or more doors are not properly
closed when locking the doors from
the outside, they will not be locked,
while if the trunk compartment is not
properly closed, the doors will in any
case be locked.
In both cases, the malfunction will be
indicated by the turn signals flashing
for a few seconds.
NOTE:
•The interior door locking/unlocking,
trunk compartment lid opening and
fuel tank door opening buttons are
disabled when the doors are locked
from the outside.

from the contact area of the engine
compartment and then drop it. This
should secure the inclusion of the
latch.
CAUTION!
To prevent possible damage, do not
slam the hood to close it.
WARNING!
•Be sure the hood is fully latched
before driving your vehicle. If the lid
is not fully latched, it could open
when the vehicle is in motion and
block your vision. Failure to follow
this warning could result in serious
injury or death.
•Gear shifting is always active and
may be performed even when one
or more doors, the hood or the trunk
lid are open. Therefore, in these
conditions, take great care to avoid
moving the transmission shift lever
and so accidentally engage gears.
Occupants Restraint
Systems
The listed occupants restraint systems
are some of the most important safety
features in your vehicle:
• Three-point seat belts (also called lap
and shoulder belts) for the driver and
all passengers.
• Front air bags for driver and
passenger.
• Seat-mounted side air bags for the
driver and front passenger.
• An energy-absorbing steering
column and steering wheel.
• Front seat belts incorporate a
pretensioner (Emergency Tensioning
Device - ETD) that may enhance
occupant protection by managing
the energy created during an impact.
• Front seat belt retractors are
equipped with load limiting devices
which control the seat belt reeling
out so as to adjust the force exerted
on the shoulders while the seat belt
is in restraining mode.
• All seat belts system (except the
driver’s) include Automatic Locking
Retractors (ALR), which lock the seat
belt webbing into position by
extending the belt all the way out

When a safety belt is worn properly, it
is more likely that baby will not be
hurt in a crash. For pregnant women,
as for anyone, the key to making
safety belts effective is wearing them
properly.
WARNING!
Pregnant women must carefully
observe the above indications, as well
as local regulation concerning the use
of seat belts.
Supplemental Restraint
System - Air bags
This vehicle has front and side air bags
for both the driver and front
passenger as a supplement to the seat
belt restraint systems.
The driver's front air bag is mounted in
the center of the steering wheel in the
area shown in the picture. The word
“AIRBAG” is embossed on this area for
easier recognition.
The passenger's front air bag is
mounted in the dashboard, above the
glove compartment in the area shown
in the picture. The word “AIRBAG” is
embossed on this area for easier
recognition.
This vehicle is also equipped with side
air bag for driver and passenger
chest-head protection during a sideimpact. The side air bags are mounted
in the front seat backrests.
The word “AIRBAG” is embossed on
this area for easier recognition.
NOTE:
After any accident, the vehicle should
be taken to anAuthorized Maserati
Dealerimmediately.
Air bag System Components
Your vehicle is equipped with the
following air bag system components:
• Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC).
• Driver and passenger front air bag.
• Pretensioner for front seat belts.
• Driver and passenger side bag.
• Front and side impact sensors.
• Air bag system failure warning light.
• Diagnostic socket.
• Fuel cut-out inertia switch.
Before Starting

In the event of a side impact, the
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)
processes the signals coming from side
sensors and activates air bag
deployment when necessary.
The air bag deploys almost
instantaneously, placing itself between
the occupants and the side of the
vehicle. The air bag deflates
immediately afterward.
In the case of low-severity side
collisions (for which the restraining
action of the seat belts provides
adequate protection), the air bags do
not deploy.
The side air bags are not a substitute
of the seat belts but rather act in
combination with them. As a
consequence, the seat belts must
always be worn as provided for by
applicable legislation in Europe and in
most non-European countries.
WARNING!
•If the
warning light comes on
while driving (fault signal), stop the
vehicle and contact an Authorized
Maserati Dealer to have the system
checked.
•In the event of a collision with
consequent air bag deployment,contact an Authorized Maserati
Dealer for replacement of the entire
safety system, Occupant Restraint
Controller (ORC), seat belts,
pretensioners, and to have the
vehicle electrical system checked.
•Any and all inspections, repairs and
replacements regarding the air bag
must be performed by an Authorized
Maserati Dealer.
NOTE:
•To scrap the vehicle, please contact
anAuthorized Maserati Dealerin
order to have the air bag system
deactivated.
•If the vehicle is sold, the new owners
must read the above described
instructions for use and warnings on
this “Owner’s Manual” that is an
integral part of the car.
Occupant Restraint Controller
(ORC)
The Occupant Restraint Controller
(ORC) determines if deployment of the
front air bags and/or side air bags in a
frontal or side collision is required.
Based on the impact sensor's signals,
the central electronic ORC deploys the
front air bags, the side air bags andseat belt pretensioners, as required,
depending on the severity and type of
impact.
The ORC monitors the readiness of the
electronic parts of the air bag system
whenever the key in the ignition
switch is in theMAR (ON)position. If
the key is in theSTOP (OFF)position,
in theACCposition, or not active, the
air bag system is not activated and the
air bags will not inflate.
The ORC contains a backup power
supply system that may deploy the air
bags even if the battery has low power
or it becomes disconnected prior to
deployment. When starting the
vehicle, ORC turns on the
air bag
warning light on the instrument
cluster for approximately 4 to 8
seconds for a test.
After the test, the
air bag warning
light will turn off. If the ORC, during
the diagnosis phase detects a
malfunction that could affect the air
bag system, it turns on the
air bag
warning light and the “Airbag failure
go to dealer” message either
momentarily or continuously. The
diagnostics also record the nature of
the malfunction. A beep will sound if
the
air bag warning light
illuminates again after initial startup.
