2020 MASERATI GRANTURISMO bulb

Theair bag warning light monitors
the internal circuits and
interconnecting wiring associated with
air bag system electrical components.
WARNING!
Ignoring the
air bag warning light
and message in your instrument
cluster could mean you won't have
the air bags to protect you in a
collision. If the light does not come on
as a bulb check when the ignition is
first turned on, stays on after you

General Warnings
WARNING!
•When the key in the ignition switch
is turned to the MAR (ON) position,
the
warning light illuminates, but
it must turn off after approx. 5
seconds. If this warning light does
not illuminate, if it remains
permanently on or if it illuminates
while driving, contact an Authorized
Maserati Dealer immediately.
•Always drive keeping your hands on
the steering wheel rim so that, in the
case of activation, the air bag can
deploy without encountering
obstacles which may cause serious
injuries.
•Do not drive with your body bent
forward but keep the seatback in the
upright position and fully resting
your back against it.
•Do not apply stickers or other
objects to the steering wheel or the
passenger’s air bag compartment.
•Do not travel with objects in your
lap, in front of your chest or
especially with a pipe, pencil or
other object held in your mouth; In
the event of a collision with air bagdeployment these objects may cause
serious injuries.
•Do not cover the front seat backs
with clothes or covers.
•Note that with the key in the
ignition switch turned to MAR (ON)
position, even with the engine off,
the air bags may activate even if the
vehicle is stationary, if it is run into
by another vehicle. Therefore, even
with the vehicle stationary, children
must be secured by the specific child
restraint systems installed on the
passenger seat. In addition, the air
bags will not activate in the event of
a collision with the vehicle
stationary and the key removed
from the ignition switch; failure of
the air bags to deploy in these
circumstances is not indicative of a
system malfunction.
•If the vehicle was stolen or its theft
attempted, if it was vandalized or
involved in flooding, contact an
Authorized Maserati Dealer to have
the air bag system checked.
•If incorrect operations are performed
on the electrical system, the air bag
may activate and cause injuries to
anyone in the vicinity.

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 anaccident, 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!

Daytime Running Lights (DRL)
DRL are normally enabled. Under
special conditions, with light switch in
andposition, LED headlight
can be turned on to full power (DRL),
low power (position lights) or off.
Status change of these lights is
explained below.
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).

This function is useful when
overtaking or changing lanes.NOTE:
If either light remains on and does not
flash, or flashes at a fast rate, check
for a defective outside light bulb. If an
indicator on instrument cluster fails
while moving the lever, then the
indicator bulb is probably defective.
High Beams and Flashing
To switch on the high beams with the
light switch in headlamp
