Adaptive Bi-Xenon Headlights
The gas-discharge (xenon) headlights
operate with an electric arc saturated
with Xenon gas under pressure,
instead of the incandescent filament.
The light produced is assuredly higher
compared to traditional light bulbs, in
terms of quality (brighter light) as well
as of the span and positioning of the
illuminated area.
In addition, the headlights are
equipped with an ALC system
(Adaptive Light Control).
This system combines the light beam
with the steering angle to assure
better visibility of the road surface
when driving in a curve, steering or in
the event of road deviations.
The advantages offered by improved
lighting system are perceived
especially in case of bad weather, fog
and/or insufficient road indications
providing broader illumination of the
side zones, which are normally left in
the dark, and for highway driving (see
comparison rendered below).
This surely increases driving safety as it
offers less eye strain and increased
orientation for the driver and better
detection of other persons on the road
sides (pedestrians, bicycle riders and
motorcycle drivers).The electric arc requires very high
voltage for activation, but afterward
power is supplied at a lower voltage.
The headlights reach maximum
brightness about 0,5 seconds after
being turned on.
The strong light produced by this type
of headlight requires the use of an
automatic system to keep the position
of the headlights constant and to
prevent dazzling approaching cars, in
the case of braking, acceleration or
load transport.
WARNING!
If xenon headlamp replacement is
necessary, contact the Authorized
Maserati Dealer only: DANGER - RISK
OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
Parking Lights
The parking lights only work with the
key in the ignition switch turned to
STOP (OFF)orACCposition, or with
the key removed.
They are activated by turning the light
switch to
position.
It is harder to turn the switch to
position than to the other
positions. This is to avoid activatingthe parking lights unintentionally and
wasting power.
When the parking lights are on, the
warning light on the instrument
cluster illuminates.
With parking lights on, move down
left-hand multifunction lever to switch
on position lights on left-hand side,
and move it up to switch on only the
ones on right-hand side.
Automatic Headlights
When the light switch is turned to
"AUTO" position and the key in the
ignition switch is inMAR (ON)
position, the position lights, low beam
lights and license plate lights turn on
and off automatically, depending on
the light outside.
NOTE:
The high beams can only be turned on
manually by pushing the left-hand
multifunction lever forward.
WARNING!
•If the low beams are activated, they
will come on automatically every
time the lights are turned on. You
are therefore advised to turn off the
high beams every time the twilight

sensor deactivates the external
lights.
•In case of fog during the day,
position lights and low beam lights
are not turned on automatically. The
driver must always be ready to turn
the lights on manually, including
rear fog lights, if necessary.
•The driver is always responsible for
turning on the external lights,
depending on the light outside and
in compliance with the applicable
legislation in the country of use. The
automatic system for activating/
deactivating the external lights must
be considered an aid for the driver.
If necessary, turn the lights on and
off manually.
NOTE:
After external lights turn on
automatically, driver can always
manually turn on rear fog lights.
When external lights turn off
automatically, rear fog lights will turn
off automatically too, if on. Upon the
following automatic switch-on driver
must manually turn on rear fog lights,
if necessary.
Rear Fog Lights
Pressbutton on the light switch to
turn on the rear fog lights.
Fog lights only work when the low
beams are on by operating the light
switch in
(low beam) or "AUTO"
position.
The symbol on the button and the
dedicated indicator light in the
instrument cluster illuminate when
the lights are on.
WARNING!
Do not use the rear fog lights in
normal visibility conditions to avoid
dazzling vehicles behind.
Pressing again thebutton will
deactivate the rear fog lights.
Twilight Sensor
This device consists of two sensors: a
global sensor, capable of measuring
the light intensity above and a
directional sensor, which measures the
light intensity in the vehicle’s traveling
direction, enabling it to recognize
tunnels and driveways.
You can adjust the sensing range of
the twilight sensor by means of the
MTC+, by selecting the “Settings”
menu and "Safety & Driving Assistant"
function (see chapter "MTC+ Settings"
in section "Dashboard instruments
and Controls").
In the event of a sensor failure, the
system will turn on the low beams and
the position lights, regardless of the
light outside, and a failure message
will appear on the instrument cluster
display.
The failure indication will be displayed
as long as the light switch is turned to
"AUTO" position.
In this case, we recommend that you
deactivate the automatic system and
turn on the external lights manually if
necessary; contact anAuthorized
Maserati Dealeras soon as possible.

Left Turn Signal Indicator Light
The indicator lights up when
the left turn signals or the
hazard flashers are turned on.
The indicator light will flash at
the same frequency of the turn signals
and is controlled by the left
multifunction lever.
If the vehicle electronics sense that the
vehicle drives for more than 1 mile
(1.6 km) with either turn signal on, a
continuous sound will alert the driver
to turn the signal off.
If the indicator flashes at a rapid rate,
check for a defective exterior light
bulb.
Rear Fog Light Indicator
This indicator lights up when
the rear fog lights are
switched on.
Tire Pressure Monitoring Light (*)
This indicator light is
connected to the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS).
Under normal conditions, the
warning light should illuminate when
the key in the ignition switch is in
MAR (ON)position and should go off
as soon as the engine is started.
If the warning light remains lit or
illuminates while driving, the pressureof one or more tires is too low: the
related message will be displayed.
If the warning light flashes prior to
remain on, it indicates that the system
is temporarily unavailable.
This warning light illuminates even
when you calibrate the TPMS and
remains lit until the system is
calibrated.
Please refer to “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” in section
“Driving” for further information.

message, indicate possible
malfunctions of the Anti-Lock
Brake System (ABS).
The light will turn on when the key in
the ignition switch is inMAR (ON)
position and may stay on for 4
seconds. If the ABS light remains lit or
turns on while driving, the Anti-Lock
portion of the brake system is not
functioning and requires service.
However, the conventional brake
system will continue to operate
normally if the
indicator light is
switched off. If the ABS light turns on
while driving, or if it does not switch
on when the key in the ignition switch
is inMAR (ON)position, please visit as
soon as possible anAuthorized
Maserati Dealerin order to restore the
Anti-Lock brakes functions.

asphalt is significantly reduced. This
means that braking distances increase
considerably and road grip decreases.
Some advices for driving in the rain
are listed below.
• Reduce your speed and keep a
greater safety distance from the
vehicles in front of you. High speed
may result in a loss of vehicle
control.
• When driving on wet or slushy roads,
it is possible for a wedge of water to
build up between the tire and road
surface. This is known as
aquaplaning and may cause partial
or complete loss of vehicle control
and stopping ability. To reduce this
possibility: slow down if the road has
standing water or puddles.
• Heavy rain substantially reduces
visibility. In these circumstances, even
during the day, turn on the low
beams, to be more visible to other
drivers.
• Set the air conditioning and heating
system controls on the defogging
function, in order to avoid any
visibility problem.
• Periodically check the conditions of
the windshield wiper blades.• In low grip conditions use “ICE”
drive mode (see chapters “Drive
Mode” in this section).
Driving in Fog
If the fog is dense, avoid traveling if
possible.
When driving in mist, blanket fog or
when there is the possibility of banks
of fog, please consider some advices
listed below.
• Keep a moderate speed.
• Even in daytime, turn on the low
beams and rear fog lights. Do not
use the high beams.
• Remember that fog creates
dampness on the asphalt and thus
any type of maneuver is more
difficult and braking distances are
extended.
• Keep a safe distance from the
vehicle in front of you.
• Avoid sudden changes in speed as
much as possible.
• Whenever possible, avoid
overtaking.
• If you are forced to stop the vehicle
(breakdowns, impossibility of
proceeding due to poor visibility,
etc.), first of all, try to stop off of the
travel lane. Then turn on the hazardwarning flashers and, if possible, the
low beams.
• Sound the horn rhythmically if you
hear another vehicle approaching.
• When you get out of the vehicle, put
on the high-visibility vest (if
equipped).
CAUTION!
Be aware that rear fog lights can
bother the drivers following your
vehicle: when visibility is back to
normal, turn off these lights.
Driving in the Mountains
Mountain roads usually have many
narrow turns and curves, tunnels and
steep uphill or downhill slopes: please
consider some advices listed below.
• Drive at a moderate speed, avoid
“cutting” corners.
• When driving inside a tunnel in
daylight turn on the low beams in
advance; avoid high beams and be
aware of the rapid brightness
change. Avoid abrupt maneuvers
that could be dangerous for the
following vehicle.
• Never coast downhill with the
engine off or in neutral, and never
