Stop MASERATI GRANTURISMO 2019 Owner's Manual

To lengthen or shorten the steering
column/wheel, pull the switch toward
you or push the switch away from you
as desired.
The steering wheel position is
memorized, together with the position
of the outside rearview mirrors, when
the driver’s seat position is stored.
Driver's "Easy Entry/Exit"
Function The "Easy Entry/Exit" function helps
the driver when entering/exiting the
vehicle.
This function is activated when the
door is opened only if the key has
been extracted from the ignition
switch or is in STOP (OFF) position.
When the driver exits the vehicle, the
steering wheel moves upward.
On re-entry the driver finds the power
steering wheel raised. After sitting down and closing the door, upon
turning the key to MAR (ON) position,
the power steering wheel moves back
to the normal driving position.
Rearview Mirrors Outside Mirrors Outside mirrors can be adjusted
electrically.
The mirrors can be closed electrically
and will yield in both directions in case
of a collision.
The outside mirrors are electrochromic,
which means, they automatically
operate an anti-glare function by
gradually shading as the light hitting
the mirrors increases.
The outside rearview electrochromic
mirrors work in conjunction with the
inside rearview electrochromic mirror.
NOTE:
The mirrors can be adjusted electrically
only with key in the ignition switch in
MAR (ON) position.
Mirrors Positioning
The power mirror control is located on
the driver's door trim panel.
The power mirror control consist of an
external selector dial and a four-way
mirror control switch.
To adjust a rearview mirror, turn the
external selector dial in the L (left) or R
(right) position to select the mirror
that you want to adjust.Understanding the Vehicle

The electric arc requires very high
voltage for activation, but afterward
power is supplied at a lower voltage.
The headlights reach maximum
brightness about 0,5 seconds after
being turned on.
The strong light produced by this type
of headlight requires the use of an
automatic system to keep the position
of the headlights constant and to
prevent dazzling approaching cars, in
the case of braking, acceleration or
load transport.
WARNING!
If xenon headlamp replacement is
necessary, contact the Authorized
Maserati Dealer only: DANGER - RISK
OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
Parking Lights The parking lights only work with the
key in the ignition switch turned to
STOP (OFF) or ACC position, or with
the key removed.
They are activated by turning the light
switch to
position.
It is harder to turn the switch to
position than to the other
positions. This is to avoid activating the parking lights unintentionally and
wasting power.
When the parking lights are on, the

The high beams can only be turned on
manually by pushing the left-hand
multifunction lever forward.
WARNING!
• If the low beams are activated, they
will come on automatically every
time the lights are turned on. You
are therefore advised to turn off the
high beams every time the twilight sensor deactivates the external
lights.
• In case of fog during the day,
position lights and low beam lights
are not turned on automatically. The
driver must always be ready to turn
the lights on manually, including
rear fog lights, if necessary.
• The driver is always responsible for
turning on the external lights,
depending on the light outside and
in compliance with the applicable
legislation in the country of use. The
automatic system for activating/
deactivating the external lights must
be considered an aid for the driver.
If necessary, turn the lights on and
off manually.
NOTE:
After
external lights turn on
automatically, driver can always
manually turn on rear fog lights.
When external lights turn off
automatically, rear fog lights will turn

instrument cluster illuminate when the
lights are on.
WARNING!
Do not use the rear fog lights in
normal visibility conditions to avoid
dazzling vehicles behind.
Pressing again the
button will
deactivate the rear fog lights. Twilight Sensor This device consists of two sensors: a
global sensor, capable of measuring
the light intensity above and a
directional sensor, which measures the
light intensity in the vehicle’s traveling
direction, enabling it to recognize
tunnels and driveways.
You can adjust the sensing range of
the twilight sensor by means of the
MTC+, by selecting the “Settings”
menu and "Safety & Driving Assistant"
function (see chapter "MTC+ Settings"
in section "Dashboard instruments and
Controls").
In the event of a sensor failure, the
system will turn on the low beams and
the position lights, regardless of the
light outside, and a failure message
will appear on the instrument cluster
display.
The failure indication will be displayed
as long as the light switch is turned to
"AUTO" position.
In this case, we recommend that you
deactivate the automatic system and
turn on the external lights manually if
necessary; contact an Authorized
Maserati Dealer as soon as possible. Left-hand Multifunction Lever The multifunction lever on the left side
of the steering column controls the
operation of the turn signals,
headlight beam selection and
overtaking lights.

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 the Authorized
Maserati Dealer as soon as possible.Understanding the Vehicle

Calibration Selection The driver can select, in relation to
road surface conditions, vehicle speed,
driving style and comfort, one of the
two calibration levels provided by the
system: normal or sports-style.
• Normal calibration , active when
SPORT drive mode is disabled
("SPORT" button not pressed), favors
comfort and higher driving stability
with low and average grip
conditions.
• Sport-style calibration , active when
SPORT drive mode is enabled
("SPORT" button pressed) , favors
wheel drive and permits a
dynamic-style driving with optimal
road holding.
Whenever the engine is started, the
system automatically activates
NORMAL drive mode, even if SPORT
drive mode was selected before the
engine was last turned off.
The sport-style calibration can be
selected only with the key in the
ignition switch in MAR (ON) position
and it is enabled by pressing button
"SPORT", even while driving.
When SPORT drive mode is activated,
the word “SPORT” on the instrument
cluster display and the LED on the
button illuminate. WARNING!
SPORT drive mode should not be
activated if the road surface is rough
or slippery.
The electronic suspension control
system
works in combination with the
ESC system.
When the suspension is set to normal
calibration, stability is increased under
medium and low grip conditions, while
when it is set to sport-style calibration,
the ESC system optimizes a sportier
driving.
WARNING!
In low- and medium-grip conditions
(e.g., rain, snow, ice, sand, etc.) it is
advisable not to use SPORT drive
mode, even with the ESC system
enabled.
Malfunction Indicators If one or more electric components in
the system prove to be malfunctioning
while driving, the ECU illuminates the
amber warning light accompanied
by the message “Check suspensions”
on the display. In addition, the ECU
calibrates the shock absorbers to a preset value, thus ensuring a safe
vehicle set up.
Should the malfunction involve one
shock absorber only, this will no longer
be controlled by the ECU and will
therefore remain set as it was when
the fault occurred. It is therefore
possible for one of the four shock
absorbers to work with a fixed
calibration, different from that of the
other ones.
In any case, safe and secure vehicle
driving is always ensured at low
speeds.
CAUTION!
In the event of a malfunction in the
suspension control electronic system,
which will be indicated by the
illumination of the amber warning
light on the display while driving, keep
a moderate speed and have the vehicle
checked as soon as possible by an
Authorized Maserati Dealer .
If a malfunction occurs while driving,
and
this is signaled by the illumination
of the
amber warning light on the
display, it is advisable to stop the
vehicle as soon as possible, turn the
key in the ignition switch to STOP
(OFF) position and then restart the
engine.Understanding the Vehicle
