Opening
From inside the vehicle, pull the hood
release lever located under the left
lower side of the dashboard.
Move to the outside and stand in front
of the vehicle front grille.
Slightly lift the hood and lift the safety
lever as indicated by the arrow. The
safety lever is located in the center of
the front lid contact area.Lift the hood completely: this
operation is facilitated by two gas
struts keeping the fully open position.
With the key in the ignition switch in
MAR (ON)position, the specific red
warning light will display on the
instrument cluster with the message
indicating that the hood is open (see
chapter “Instrument Cluster” in section
“Dashboard Instrument and
Controls”).
Closing
Lower the hood to about 20 cm (8 in)
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.

and dry with a soft cloth. Do not cover
the lens.Safety Tips
Transporting Passengers
WARNING!
•Do not leave children or animals
inside parked vehicles in hot
weather. Interior heat build-up may
cause serious injury.
•Never ride in a cargo area, inside of
a vehicle.
•Do not allow people to ride in any
area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat belts.
•Be sure everyone in your vehicle is
in a seat and using a seat belt
properly.
Exhaust Gas
WARNING!
Exhaust gases can injure. They contain
carbon monoxide (CO), which is
colorless and odorless. Breathing it
can make you unconscious and can
eventually poison you. To avoid
breathing (CO), follow these safety
tips:
•Do not run the engine in a closedgarage or in confined areas any
longer than needed to move your
vehicle in or out of the area.
•If it is necessary to sit in a parked
vehicle with the engine running,
adjust your heating or cooling
controls to force outside air into the
vehicle. Set the blower at high
speed.
•If you are required to drive with the
trunk lid open, make sure that all
windows are closed and the climate
control blowers switch is set at high
speed. DO NOT use the recirculation
mode.
The best protection against carbon
monoxide entry into the passenger
compartment is a properly maintained
engine exhaust system.
Whenever detecting a change in the
sound of the exhaust system or
eventual exhaust fumes inside the
vehicle have theAuthorized Maserati
Dealerinspect the complete exhaust
system and adjacent body areas for
broken, damaged, deteriorated, or
mispositioned parts.
Open seams or loose connections
could permit exhaust fumes to seep
into the passenger compartment.

•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.
•Mounting posts must be properly
installed, if not equipped from the
factory. Failure to properly follow
floor mat installation or mounting
can cause interference with the
brake pedal and accelerator pedal
operation causing loss of control of
the vehicle.Tires
• Examine tires for excessive tread
wear and uneven wear patterns.
• Check for stones, nails, glass, or
other objects lodged in the tread or
sidewall.
• Inspect the tread for cuts and cracks.
• Inspect sidewalls for cuts, cracks and
bulges.
• Check the wheel nuts for tightness.
• Check the tires (see “Tire Inflation
Pressure” chapter in section
“Features and Specifications”) for
proper cold inflation pressure.
Lights and Indicator Lights
• Have someone observe the
operation of exterior lights while
you operate the controls (see
“Lights” chapter in section
“Understanding the Vehicle”).
• Check turn signal and high beam
indicator lights on the instrument
cluster (see “Instrument Cluster”
chapter in section “Dashboard
Instruments and Controls”).
Door Latches
• Check for positive closing, latching,
and locking of doors and trunk lid
(see chapter “Doors” and “Open and
Close the Trunk Lid” in this section).Fluid Leaks
• Check area under vehicle after
overnight parking for recent fluid
leaks (oil, fuel, etc.).
• If gasoline fumes are detected or
fluid leaks are suspected, contact an
Authorized Maserati Dealer.
