Floor Mat
Always use floor mats designed to fit
the footwell of your vehicle. Use only
floor mats that leave the pedal area
unobstructed and that are firmly secured so that they cannot slip out of
position and interfere with the pedals
or impair safe operation of your
vehicle.
NOTE:
The Authorized Maserati Dealer can
provide you with any information
about the available Maserati floor
mats included in the “Genuine
Accessories” range.
WARNING!
Pedals that cannot move freely can
cause loss of vehicle control and
increase the risk of serious personal
injury.
• Always make sure that floor mats
are properly attached to the proper
fasteners.
• 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.Before Starting

Automatic Headlights This system automatically turns the
headlights on or off according to
ambient light intensity detected by the
twilight sensor positioned on the inner
surface of the windshield, over the
rear view mirror. To turn the system
on, rotate the lights switch clockwise
to “AUTO” position.
When the automatic system is
activated, the headlight time delay
feature is activated as well. This means
the headlights will stay on for up to 90
seconds after you place the ignition
device into OFF position.
To turn the automatic system off,
move the lights switch out of “AUTO”
position.
NOTE:
The engine must be running before
the headlights turn on in automatic
mode.
WARNING!
The responsibility for turning on the
lights, depending on the daylight and
regulations in force in the country of
use, always lies with the driver. The
automatic system for switching on
and off the external lights is to be considered as an aid for the driver. If
necessary, switch the lights including
the rear fog lights on and off
manually.
Headlights On with Wipers
When
this feature
is active, the
headlights will turn on approximately
10 seconds after activation of the
wipers, if the lights switch is placed in
the “AUTO” position. The headlights
will additionally turn off by
deactivation of the wipers if previously
activated with this function.
NOTE:
The headlights with wipers feature
may be turned on and off using the
MTC+ System, refer to “MTC+
Settings” in section “Dashboard
Instruments and Controls”.
Headlights Time Delay This safety feature provides headlight
illumination for up to 90 seconds
(programmable) when leaving your
vehicle in an unlit area. To activate the
delay feature, place the ignition switch
in the OFF or ACC position while the
headlights are still on. Then turn off
the headlights within 45 seconds. The delay interval begins when the
lights switch is turned off (position
“0”). If you turn the headlights or
position lights on, or place the ignition
switch in RUN , the system will cancel
the delay.
If you turn the headlights off (“0”
position) before the ignition, they will
turn off in the normal mode.
NOTE:
• To activate this feature the lights
must be turned off (“0” position)
within 45 seconds of placing the
ignition switch in the OFF or ACC
position.
• Once the delay feature is active, any
additional shifting of the light switch
will cancel the feature.
• The headlight delay time is
programmable using the MTC+
System, see “MTC+ Settings” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”.
• If the low beam bulbs/LEDs are active
due to “Headlights with Wipers”,
then the headlamps delay feature
will not be activated when the
ignition switch is set in OFF position.Understanding the Vehicle

Daytime Running Lights (DRL) The lighting system uses the same
high or low intensity headlamps LED,
respectively, for the DRL lights and
front position lights.
DRL lights will turn on when the
twilight sensor is in “DAY” mode, the
engine is running and the light switch
is in
or “AUTO” position.
If a turn signal is activated, the DRL
LED on the same side of the vehicle
switches in position light function for
the duration of the turn signal
activation. Once the turn signal is
deactivated, the DRL LED will light up
again.
NOTE:
On Canadian vehicles DRL are always
on. On USA vehicles, the DRL lights
can be turned on and off using the
MTC+ System, see “MTC+ Settings” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls” for further information.
Bi-Xenon Headlight The gas-discharge (xenon) headlights
operate with an electric arc saturated
with Xenon gas under pressure,
instead of the incandescent filament.
The light produced is assuredly higher
compared to traditional light bulbs, in terms of quality (brighter light) as well
as of the span and positioning of the
illuminated area.
WARNING!
If xenon headlamp replacement is
necessary, contact the Authorized
Maserati Dealer only: DANGER - RISK
OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
“Full-LED” Headlight with
Cornering Function These headlamps combine the
cornering function to the “Full-LED”
technology consisting of an additional
LED module which turns on when two
conditions occurs: the driver turns the
steering wheel or the driver activates
the turn indicator. The cornering
function will illuminate the corner to
enhance the visibility to the driver as
long as speed will be lower than 25
mph (40 km/h). “Full-LED” Technology
This technology creates headlights
with a simpler construction and a
more compact size compared to those
equipped with traditional or Xenon
light bulbs.
Other advantages are:
• a clearer light beam, with a cool
white tone that allows a better
perception of the contrasts thus
making the night vision more
efficient and less tiring;
• a longer duration equivalent at least
to that of the vehicle;
• a reduced current consumption.
These features positively affect some
vehicle management economy aspects
by eliminating/reducing the light bulb
replacements and help limit fuel
consumption.Understanding the Vehicle

Automatic High Beam (for
versions/markets, where
provided) The Automatic High Beam headlight
control system provides increased
forward lighting at night by
automating high beam control
through the use of the forward-facing
digital camera located behind the
rear-view mirror, which is the same
one used for example by the Lane
Keeping Assist - LKA system on vehicles
with ADAS systems.
This camera detects the environmental
luminosity, the headlamps of
oncoming vehicles and the tail lamps
of proceding vehicles in the front area.
In these cases, the system
automatically switches from high
beams to low beams until the
approaching vehicle is out of view.
Futhermore, the digital camera is able
to detect the urban areas and the
inhabited centers and to turn off the
high beams when driving near of one
of them.
The properly working for this feature
(if all the other conditions are met) is
ensured between 21.7 mph (35 km/h)
and 155 mph (250 km/h). Activation Mode
To activate Automatic High Beam
feature:
• Shift the multifunction lever onward
.
• Put the light switch in “AUTO”
position.
• Touch the “Controls” soft-key in the
lower part of the MTC+ display.
• Within 15 seconds, touch the "Auto
High Beam Assist" soft-key to turn
on the feature. • Within 15 seconds, touch the "Auto
High Beam Assist" soft-key a second
time to turn it off.
After these steps, the green indicator
on the upper right side of the TFT
display comes on.
