WARNING!
•When the door is opened, the
window is automatically lowered
slightly; when the door is closed
again, the window is automatically
raised. Always ensure that
passengers (especially children) are
clear of the windows when
opening/closing the doors.
•Improper use of the power windows
can be dangerous. Ensure that
passengers are clear of the windows
before closing them. When leaving
the vehicle, always remove the key
from the ignition switch to prevent
the power windows from being
accidentally activated: this could
endanger any passengers remaining
in the vehicle.
•Never leave unattended children in a
vehicle.
•Failure of the soft top temporarily
(for approx. 10 mins) prevents
movement of the electric windows.
Once this period has elapsed, the
windows function normally.
Auto-Down Feature
The driver door power window switch
and some model passenger door
power window switches have an
auto-down feature.
Press the window switch to the second
detent, release, and the window will
go completely down automatically.
To open the window part way, press
the window switch to the first detent
and release it when you want the
window to stop.
To stop the window from going all the
way down during the auto-down
operation, pull up on the switch
briefly.
Auto-Up Feature
Lift the window switch to the second
detent, release, and the window will
go all the way up automatically.
To stop the window from going all the
way up during the auto-up operation,
push down on the switch briefly.
To close the window part way, lift the
window switch to the first detent and
release it when you want the window
to stop.
NOTE:
•Any impact due to rough road
conditions may trigger the auto
reverse function unexpectedly during
auto-closure. If this happens, pull the
switch lightly to the first detent and
hold to close the window manually.
•Before activating the alarm, ensure
that all the windows are closed; this
will help prevent the alarm being
triggered accidentally.

force exerted on the shoulders while
the seat belt is in restraining mode.
Seat Belt Reminder System
(SBR)
The SBR system has the function to
remind the driver and the front
passenger to fasten the seat belts.
The function activates with engine
running. If the driver or front seat
passenger is unbelted, the seat belt
reminder light
and related message
will turn on in the instrument cluster
and remain on until both front seat
belts are fastened.
The warning sequence begins after
the vehicle speed is over 5 mph
(8 km/h) for more than 19 seconds, by
blinking the seat belt reminder light
and by sounding an intermittent
chime.Once the sequence starts, it will
continue for the entire duration. After
the sequence completes, the seat belt
reminder light
remain illuminated
until the respective seat belts are
fastened.
If the opened door on the driver or
passenger side is closed and the
occupant presence sensor detects a
status change from occupant not
present to occupant present the
system will repeat the warning
sequence.
The driver should instruct all other
occupants to fasten their seat belts.
If a front seat belt is unbuckled while
traveling at speeds greater than
5 mph (8 km/h), SBR system will
provide both audio and visual
notification on the instrument cluster.
The front passenger seat SBR is not
active when the front passenger seat
is not occupied. SBR may be triggered
when an animal or heavy object is on
the front passenger seat. It is
recommended to restrain pets in the
rear seat, in pet harnesses or pet
carriers that are secured by seat belts,
and properly stow cargo.
Maintaining the Seat Belts
• Always use the seat belts with the
belt completely flat, not twisted.Make sure that the belt can move
freely without jamming.
• The seat belts must be replaced
following every pretensioner
activation and whenever the belt
itself shows visible damages or
abrasions.
• Wash the seat belts by hand using
water and neutral soap, rinse them
and let them dry in the shade. Do
not use strong detergents, bleaches
or colorants and any other chemical
substance that may weaken the
fibers.
• Make sure the seat belt retractors do
not get wet: they will operate
properly only if they do not undergo
water infiltration.
Seat Belts and Pregnant
Women
Seat belts should also be worn by
pregnant women: the risk of injury in
the event of an accident is greatly
reduced for them and the unborn
child if they are wearing a seat belt.
The best way to protect the fetus is to
protect the mother.
Pregnant women must position the
lower part of the belt very low down
so that it passes over the pelvis and
under the abdomen (see figure).

•Objects such as bicycle carriers,
trailer hitches, etc., must not be
placed within 12 in (30 cm) from the
rear bumper while driving the
vehicle. Failure to do so can result in
the system misinterpreting a close
object as a sensor problem, causing
the service Park Assist message to be
displayed in the instrument cluster.
CAUTION!
• Park Assist is only a parking aid and
it is unable to recognize every
obstacle, including small obstacles.
Parking curbs might only be
temporarily detected or not
detected at all. Obstacles located
above or below the sensors will not
be detected when they are in close
proximity.
• The vehicle must be driven slowly
when using Park Assist in order to be
able to stop in time when an
obstacle is detected. When backing
up, it is recommended that the
driver looks over his/her shoulder
when using Park Assist.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing
up even when using the Park Assist
system. Always check carefully behind
your vehicle, look behind you, and be
sure to check for pedestrians, animals,
other vehicles, obstructions, and blind
spots before backing up. You are
responsible for safety and must
continue to pay attention to your
surroundings. Failure to do so can
result in serious injury or death.
Rear Parking Camera
Your vehicle is equipped with a rear
parking camera that allows you to see
an image on the MTC+ screen of the
rear surroundings of your vehicle
whenever the shift lever is put into R
(Reverse).
When “Parkview Backup Camera
Delay” mode is enabled on MTC+, the
rear view image shall be displayed for
up to 10 seconds after shifting out of
R (Reverse).
The rear parking camera is located on
the rear of the vehicle above the rear
license plate.
When the shift lever is shifted out of R
(Reverse), the rear camera mode is
exited and the navigation or audio
screen appears again.
When displayed, dynamic grid lines (if
the function is set to “MTC+ Settings”)

Vehicle Safety Checks
Seat Belts
• Inspect the belt system periodically,
checking for cuts, frays, and loose
parts. Damaged parts must be
replaced immediately.
• Do not disassemble or modify the
system.
• If the belt has been sharply pulled,
for example as the result of an
accident, the safety belt, together
with the anchoring devices, the
anchoring device mounting screws
and the pretensioner must be
completely replaced. Even if the belt
does not present any exterior signs
of wear or damage, it may have lost
its restraining properties.
Air bag Warning Light
The
warning light should illuminate
and remain lit for a few seconds bulb
checking when the key in the ignition
switch is turned inMAR (ON)position
(see “Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) — Air bags” chapter in this
section).
•Ifthe
warning light does not
illuminate while starting, contact an
Authorized Maserati Dealer.•Ifthe
warning light stays on,
flickers, or comes on while driving,
have the system checked by an
Authorized Maserati Dealer.
Defroster
Check operation by selecting the
defrost mode and place the fan system
on high speed (see “Air Conditioning
Controls” chapter in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
You should be able to feel the air
directed against the windshield and
front side windows. Contact an
Authorized Maserati Dealerfor service
if your defroster is inoperable.
Floor Mat
Always use floor mats designed to fit
the footwell of your vehicle. Use only
floor mats that leave the pedal area
unobstructed and that are firmly
secured so that they cannot slip out of
position and interfere with the pedals
or impair safe operation of your
vehicle.
NOTE:
TheAuthorized Maserati Dealercan
provide you with any information
about the available Maserati floor
mats included in the “Genuine
Accessories” range.
WARNING!
Pedals that cannot move freely can
cause loss of vehicle control and
increase the risk of serious personal
injury.
•Always make sure that floor mats
are properly attached to the proper
fasteners.
•Never place or install floor mats or
other floor coverings in the vehicle
that cannot be properly secured to
prevent them from moving and
interfering with the pedals.
•Never put floor mats or other floor
coverings on top of already installed
floor mats. Additional floor mats and
other coverings will reduce the size
of the pedal area and interfere with
the pedals.
•Check mounting of mats on a regular
basis. Always properly reinstall and
secure floor mats that have been
removed for cleaning.
•Always make sure that objects
cannot fall into the driver footwell
while the vehicle is moving. Objects
can become trapped under the brake
pedal and accelerator pedal causing
a loss of vehicle control.

damaged if the wiper control is left
in any position other than “OFF”.
• In cold weather, always turn off the
wiper switch and allow the wipers to
return to the park position before
turning off the engine. If the wiper
switch is left on and the wipers
freeze to the windshield, the wiper
motor may be damaged when the
vehicle is restarted.
• Always remove any buildup of snow
that prevents the windshield wiper
blades from returning to the off
position. If the windshield wiper
control is turned off and the blades
cannot return to the off position, the
wiper motor may be damaged.
Rain Sensing Wipers
This feature detects moisture on the
windshield through an inside rearview
mirror integrated sensor.
The rain sensor adapts the frequency
of the windshield wiper strokes (in the
intermittent operation mode) to the
intensity of the rain.
All the other functions controlled by
the right-hand multifunction lever
(windshield wipers off, in continuous
slow and fast operation mode and intemporary fast operation mode)
remain the same.
The rain sensor is activated
automatically by moving the
right-hand multifunction lever to
"AUTO" position. The sensor has a
setting range that varies progressively:
from the windshield wiper stationary
position - when the windshield is dry -
to the windshield wiper second speed -
in conditions of pouring rain.
To regulate the frequency of
intermittent operation, with the
right-hand multifunction lever in
"AUTO" position, turn the end section
of the lever.
Rotating the end section clockwise,
intermittent operation varies from fast
intermittent wipe (max.) to slow
intermittent wipe (min).
If the engine is turned off during
automatic windshield wiper operation,with the right-hand multifunction
lever in "AUTO" position, to reactivate
the function the next time the engine
is started, the lever must be moved to
"OFF" (stop position) then back to
"AUTO" position.
CAUTION!
• The rain sensing feature may not
function properly by ice or dried salt
water on the windshield.
• Use on the windshield of RainX
®or
products containing wax or silicone
may reduce rain sensor performance.
Rain Sensor Failure
When the rain sensor is activated, in
the event that it is malfunctioning, the
windshield wiper will be switched on
in intermittent operation mode and
the sensing range will be set by the
user, regardless of whether or not
there is rain on the windshield.
The
symbol appears on the
instrument cluster display.
In this case, we recommend that you
cut-out the rain sensor and turn on the
wiper, if necessary, in continuous
mode. Contact theAuthorized
Maserati Dealeras soon as possible.
