Immobilizer System
The Maserati CODE System
In order to increase protection against
theft, the vehicle is equipped with an
electronic engine immobilizer system
(Maserati CODE), which is
automatically activated when the key
is removed from the ignition switch.
Each starter key contains an electronic
device which transmits a code signal to
the Maserati CODE control unit, and
engine ignition is enabled only if the
key code is recognized by the system.
Key Codes
A CODE card is supplied with the keys.
This card indicates the following:
• the “ELECTRONIC CODE” to be used
for emergency starting (see
"Emergency Starting with Maserati
Code" in section "In an Emergency");
• the “MECHANICAL CODE” to be
provided to anAuthorized Maserati
Dealerif you request duplicates of
the keys.
NOTE:
•The code numbers shown on the
CODE card should be kept in a safe
place.•You are advised to always keep the
CODE card number with you, as it is
absolutely necessary in the event of
“Emergency Starting”.
•In the event of a vehicle ownership
transfer, it is essential that the new
owner is provided with all the keys
and with the CODE card.
•It is advisable to write down and
keep the codes listed on the plates
delivered with the keys and the
remote control in a safe place (not in
the vehicle) in order to request
duplicates if needed.
CODE System Operation
Each time the key in the ignition
switch is removed in theSTOP (OFF)
position, protection system activates
the engine immobilizer.
When the engine is started and the
key is turned toMAR (ON)position:• If the code is recognized, the CODE
warning light on the instrument
cluster turns off within a second,
while the MIL
warning light,
once the ECU diagnosis has been
completed, goes off after about four
seconds. In these conditions, the
protection system recognizes the key
code and deactivates the engine
immobilizer. When the key in the
ignition switch is turned toAVV
position, the engine starts.
• If the CODE
warning light
remains on and the MIL
warning
light goes off after four seconds (ECU
diagnostics) and illuminates again
immediately afterward, the code has
not been recognized and the
message “Electronic key not
recognized” is displayed. If this
occurs, turn the key in the ignition
switch toSTOP (OFF)and then back
toMAR (ON)position. If the
immobilizer stays on, try with the
other keys. If you still cannot start
the engine, try the emergency start
procedure (see "Emergency Starting
with Maserati Code" in section "In
an Emergency") and contact an
Authorized Maserati Dealer.
While driving, with the key in the
ignition switch inMAR (ON)position:

on, it means that the system is
running a self-diagnostic cycle. At
the first stop you can test the system:
turn the key in the ignition switch in
STOP (OFF)position to stop the
engine and then back toMAR (ON)
position: the CODE
warning light
will illuminate and should turn off in
one second. If the warning light
stays on, repeat the procedure
described previously leaving the key
atSTOP (OFF)position for more than
30 seconds. If the problem persists,
contact anAuthorized Maserati
Dealer.
• If the CODE
warning light flashes,
it means that the vehicle is not
protected by the immobilizer device.
Immediately contact anAuthorized
Maserati Dealerto have all the keys
stored in the memory.
CAUTION!
• Strong impacts can damage the
electronic components in the key.
• Each key supplied has its own
specific code, which must be stored
in the memory of the system control
unit.
