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. Afterthe 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).

WARNING!
•Improper installation can lead to
failure of an infant or child restraint.
It could come loose in a collision. The
child could be badly injured or killed.
Follow the restraint manufacturer’s
directions exactly when installing an
infant or child restraint.
•A rearward-facing child restraint
should only be used in a rear seat. A
rearward-facing child restraint in the
front seat may be struck by a
deploying passenger air bag, which
may cause severe or fatal injury to
the infant.
Here are Some Tips on Getting
the Most Out of Your Child
Restraint
• Before buying any restraint system,
make sure that it has a labelcertifying that it meets all applicable
Safety Standards. Maserati also
recommends that you make sure that
you can install the child restraint in
the vehicle where you will use it
before you buy it.
• The restraint system must be
appropriate for your child’s weight
and height.
• Check the label on the restraint
system for weight and height limits.
• Carefully follow the instructions that
come with the restraint system.
• If installed improperly, it may not
work when needed.
• Fit the child into the seat according
to the child restraint manufacturer’s
directions.
WARNING!
When your child restraint system is
not in use, secure it in the vehicle with
the seat belt or remove it from the
vehicle. Do not leave it loose in the
vehicle. In a sudden stop or accident, it
could strike the occupants or
seatbacks and cause serious personal
injury.
Installing Child Restraint
Systems using the Vehicle Seat
Belt equipped with ALR
All the passenger seat belts are
equipped with an Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR) to secure child
protection through a Child Restraint
System (CRS). These types of seat belts
are designed to keep the lap portion
of the seat belt tight around the child
restraint seat avoiding to use a locking
clip.
The ALR will make a ratcheting noise if
the entire belt is pulled out of the
retractor in order to enable the belt to
retract subsequently. For additional
information on ALR, see “Using Seat
Belt in Automatic Locking Retractor
(ALR) Mode” in “Occupants Restraint
Systems” in this section.
To install a Child Restraint System with
ALR, pull enough of the belt out of the
retractor leading it through the belt
path of the protection device. Slide the
latch into the buckle until it clicks,
then remove the entire safety belt
from the retractor in order to
rewound. While rewinding a click will
indicate the safety belt is now in
Automatic Locking mode.
Exert then a traction on the exceeded
lap section of the belt in order to

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”)will illustrate the width of the vehicle
while a dashed center-line will indicate
the center of the vehicle to assist with
parking or aligning to a hitch/receiver.
The dynamic grid lines will show
separate zones in different color that
will help indicate the distance to the
rear of the vehicle.
The following table shows the
approximate distances for each zone
and color:
Zone Distance to the rear of
the vehicle
Red 11-12in(28-30cm)
Yellow 12 - 78 in (30 cm-2m)
Green 78 - 157 in (2-4m)
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when
reversing even when using the
rearview camera. Always check
carefully behind your vehicle, and be
sure to check for pedestrians, animals,
other vehicles, obstructions, or blind
spots before reversing. You are
responsible for the safety of your
surroundings and must continue to be
careful while reversing. Failure to do
so can result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
• To avoid vehicle damage, the rear
parking camera should only be used
as a parking aid, as the rear camera is
unable to view every obstacle or
object in your drive path.
• To avoid vehicle damage, the vehicle
must be driven slowly when using
the rear parking camera to be able
to stop in time when an obstacle is
seen. It is recommended that the
driver looks frequently over his/her
shoulder when using this system.

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 in
temporary 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.
