Automatic Locking Mode Unsetting
Unbuckle the three point seat belt and
allow it to retract completely to
disengage the automatic locking
mode and activate the vehicle
emergency locking mode.
WARNING!
•The belt and retractor assembly
must be checked by an Authorized
Maserati Dealer and must be
replaced if the Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR) feature or any other
seat belt function is not working
properly.
•Failure to replace the belt and
retractor assembly could increase
the risk of injury in collisions.
Seat Belt Pretensioners
To further enhance the seat belt
efficiency, the vehicle seat belts are
equipped with ETD (Emergency
Tensioning Device) pretensioners.
These devices “detect”, by means of a
sensor, that a violent crash is occurring
and retract the belts by a few
centimeters. This ensures that the belt
properly adheres to the occupants’bodies before its restraining action
starts.
The seat belt locking indicates that the
device has activated; a small amount
of smoke may be released. The smoke
is not toxic and does not indicate the
presence of a fire.
The pretensioners are activated in the
event of an impact of a certain
severity.
The pretensioner only activates when
the seat belt is fastened.
After a pretensioner activation, the
seat belt can be unfastened as usual,
by pressing the button on the buckle.
The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or lubrication.
Any change to its original condition
invalidates its efficiency. If, in the
event of exceptional natural events
(e.g. floods, heavy storms, etc.), the
device has been in contact with water
and sludge, it is mandatory to replace
it.
To help ensure the best protection
from the pretensioners, wear the belt
in such a way that it fits snugly against
your chest and pelvis.
WARNING!
•The pretensioners can be deployed
only once and activate only whenthe seat belts are fastened. After
activation, contact an Authorized
Maserati Dealer to have the
pretensioners replaced and for
properly discarding the old
components.
•Do not tamper with the
pretensioner components. Any
operation must be performed only
by qualified and authorized
personnel. Always contact an
Authorized Maserati Dealer.
CAUTION!
Work on the vehicle which involves,
vibrations or localized heating (over
212°F/100°C for 6 hours max.) in the
area of the pretensioners may damage
or activate them: vibrations due to
uneven road surfaces or small
obstacles, such as impacts with curbs,
do not affect the units. Please contact
anAuthorized Maserati Dealerif any
interventions must be carried out.
Load Limiting Devices
To enhance passive safety, all the seat
belt retractors are equipped with load
limiting devices which control the seat
belt reeling out so as to adjust the
