If you attempt to disengage the
parking brake without having
depressed the service brake pedal, a
message will be displayed to warn
you to do so.
• The EPB command activation while
running, generates a deceleration of
the vehicle with strong deceleration
(Dynamic Braking). It is therefore
recommended to use of this feature
only in case of emergency. The
stability of the car is guaranteed by
the action of the activated ESC
system.
Deactivating Automatic
Operation To deactivate automatic operation of
the parking brake, with the engine
on, press the "PARK OFF" button on
the central console. The words “PARK OFF” appear on the
display for 5 seconds, after which they
remain displayed but in smaller size.
To reactivate automatic operation,
press the "PARK OFF" button once
again, the words “PARK ON” appear
on the display for 5 seconds.
CAUTION!
• In certain conditions when the
battery voltage is low, the electric
parking brake system may
temporarily be deactivated for safety
reasons. Therefore, typically upon
starting the engine, when the
battery voltage drops, the message
“PARK OFF” may temporarily be
displayed on the instrument cluster,
indicating that automatic operation
is temporarily disabled. • In the case of performance starting,
check that the parking brake is
disengaged.
Failure Indication In the event of electric parking brake
system failure, the
warning light
on the display will light up.
Depending on the message displayed,
it signals the following failures of the
EPB system:
• “Parking brake failure: go to dealer”
If the message warning you to go to
the nearest Authorized Maserati
Dealer is displayed, drive slowly and
remember that the electric parking
brake device is not functioning.
• “EPB is overheated”
If the vehicle has been stationary
(key in the ignition switch to STOP
(OFF) position) for about 15 minutes
without using the parking brake,
and the warning light illuminates
again after restarting the engine,
slowly drive to the nearest
Authorized Maserati Dealer .
• “EPB failure only manual unlock
allowed: see handbook”
In this case, follow the manual

engage the parking brake, but also to
shift the transmission shift lever to P
(Park) before leaving the vehicle.
When parking on hill roads, it is
important
to turn the front wheels
toward the curb on a downhill grade
and away from the curb on an uphill
grade.
Apply the parking brake before
placing the shift lever in P (Park),
otherwise the load on the
transmission locking mechanism may
make it difficult to move the shift
lever out of P (Park).
In certain conditions, it is however
advisable to disengage the parking
brake manually and slightly apply the
service brake for starting off. This is
advisable when there are obstacles
very close to the vehicle in the
direction in which you intend to move. Brake and Stability
Control System The vehicle is equipped with an
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
anti-yawing system, which helps to
maintain directional control in the event
of loss of grip of the tires. The system is
able to detect potentially dangerous
situations for the stability of the vehicle
and automatically sets the brakes on all
four wheels in a differentiated manner,
in order to provide a torque settlement
of the vehicle.
ESC includes the following subsystems:
• ASR (Anti-Slip Regulation)
• ABS (Anti-lock Braking System)
• EBD (Electronic Brake-force
Distribution)
• HBA (Hydraulic Brake Assistance)
• BOS (Brake Override System)
WARNING!
• These systems cannot prevent the
natural laws of physics from
affecting the vehicle, nor can they
increase traction, braking or steering
efficiency beyond that afforded by
the condition of the vehicle brakes
and tires. • These systems cannot prevent
collisions, including those resulting
from excessive speed in turns,
following another vehicle too
closely, or hydroplaning.
• The capabilities of a vehicle
equipped with these systems must
never be exploited in a reckless or
dangerous manner that could
jeopardize the driver’s and the
passenger’s safety or the safety of
others.
Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) This system enhances directional
control and stability of the vehicle
under various driving conditions. The
ESC corrects over steering and under
steering of the vehicle by applying the
brake to the appropriate wheel.
Engine power may also be reduced to
assist in counteracting the conditions
of instability and maintain the right
direction. The system is also able to
reduce the engine power.
Through sensors fitted on the vehicle,
the ESC system detects the driver’s
chosen direction comparing it to the
one maintained while running. In case
of discrepancy between the required
trajectory and the current one, the Driving

• in the event of loss of grip on wet
roads (aquaplaning).
The ASR system works in combination
with the electronic suspension control
system: in normal conditions (SPORT
mode off), stability in low and
medium grip conditions has priority,
while with SPORT mode active, the
system favors traction, thereby
optimizing vehicle performance on dry
asphalt.
The ASR system is automatically
activated every time the engine is
started and can be deactivated by
pressing
(ESC Off) button (see
"Drive Mode" in this section).
ASR System Failure
In the event of a fault, the system is
automatically disabled and cannot be
re-activated. While driving, this
condition is signaled by the
amber
warning light on the instrument
cluster display, which illuminates
together with the message “ASR
unavailable go to dealer”. Also the
(ESC On) amber warning light
illuminates inside the tachometer with
the message indicating that the ESC
system is unavailable. In this case drive
with the greatest care and have the
system immediately checked by the
nearest Authorized Maserati Dealer . MSR Function
The ASR system also controls the
engine braking torque when the
accelerator pedal is released under
low grip conditions (e.g., snow, ice,
etc.): in these conditions, the high
braking torque provided by the
engine may cause instability of the
vehicle.
The system, using the same sensors as
the ABS, detects skidding of one or
both driving wheels when the
accelerator is released and opens the
motor-driven throttle of the engine
fuel system thereby reducing the
braking torque and re-establishing the
maximum grip conditions for the
driving wheels.
WARNING!
The maximum deceleration that can
be obtained with the engine brake
always depends on the tire grip on
the road surface. Snow or ice
obviously reduce grip values.

Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS)
and Electronic Brake-force
Distribution (EBD) The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
provides increased vehicle stability and
brake performance under most
braking conditions. The system
automatically “pumps” the brakes
during severe braking to prevent
wheel lock-up.
The Electronic Brake-force Distribution
(EBD) prevents the rear wheels from
over-braking and provides greater
control of available braking forces
applied to the rear axle. Driving
