“--,--” will be displayed in the place of
the values.
NOTE:
•The system will not perform
calibration if the pressure is below 2
bar (29 psi).
•To allow the system to acquire the
sensors’s data, after the startup of
the car, if possible avoid to stop.
During this interval the TFT display
can show screen page with dashes
“--,--” in the place of the pressure
levels of each tire.
•If calibration is not completed within
10 minutes of driving the car, the
instrument cluster shows “TPMS
Malfunction” pop-up message and
“Tire Pressure” screen disappear. The
warning light remains light on.
TPMS Malfunction
Screen page shown in picture may
appear in the following cases:
• malfunction in the ECU
system/wiring;
• no signal reception by one or more
sensors due to malfunctioning,
broken or dead battery;
• ECU malfunction.The display procedure follows the
usual logic of malfunctions. Therefore,
after 30 seconds, the display will show
the screen page that was active before
the malfunction occurred.
In addition to screen page being
displayed, the
amber warning
light, which is permanently
illuminated on the instrument cluster,
will flash for 85 seconds, after which it
will remain permanently on until the
situation is corrected. The information
page that shows the pressure value for
each tire cannot be recalled.
Fuel Requirements
The engines are designed to meet all
environmental regulations and
provide excellent fuel economy and
performance when using unleaded
premium gasoline with an AKI octane
rating of 91 or above. AKI (Anti Knock
Index) is an average on the Research
Octane Number, RON, and the Motor
Octane Number, MON (RON + MON/2
gives you the AKI).
For vehicle top performance, use
unleaded premium gasoline with no
less than 93 minimum AKI octane
rating.
Poor quality gasoline can cause
problems such as hard starting,
stalling, and hesitations. If you
experience these symptoms, try
another brand of gasoline before
considering service for the vehicle at
anAuthorized Maserati Dealer.
Besides using unleaded gasoline with
the proper octane rating, gasoline
that contain detergents, anti-corrosion
and stability additives are
recommended. Using gasoline that
have these additives may help improve
fuel economy, reduce emissions, and
maintain vehicle performance.

Materials Added to Fuel
All gasoline sold in the United States is
required to contain effective
detergent additives. Use of additional
detergents or other additives is not
needed under normal conditions and
they would result in additional cost.
Therefore, you should not have to add
anything to the fuel.
Fuel System Warnings
WARNING!
Follow these guidelines to maintain
your vehicle's performance:
•
The use of leaded gasoline is
prohibited by Federal and Provincial
law. Using leaded gasoline can impair
engine performance and damage the
emissions control system.
•The use of fuel additives, which are
now being sold as octane enhancers,
is not recommended. Most of these
products contain high
concentrations of methanol. Fuel
system damage or vehicle
performance problems resulting
from the use of such fuels or
additives is not the responsibility of
Maserati.
NOTE:
Intentional tampering with the
emissions control system can result in
civil penalties civil penalties and could
void the vehicle warranty.
Carbon Monoxide Warnings
WARNING!
Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust
gases is deadly. Follow the
precautions below to prevent carbon
monoxide poisoning:
•Do not inhale exhaust gases. They
contain carbon monoxide, a
colorless and odorless gas, which
can kill. Never run the engine in a
closed area, such as a garage, and
never sit in a parked vehicle with
the engine running for an extended
period. If the vehicle is stopped in
an open area with the engine
running for more than a short
period, adjust the ventilation system
to force fresh, outside air into the
vehicle.
•Guard against carbon monoxide
with proper maintenance. Have the
exhaust system inspected every time
the vehicle is raised. Have anyabnormal conditions repaired
promptly. Until repaired, drive with
all side windows fully open.
