• Do not exceed 5 mph (8 km/h) when
driving through standing water. This
will minimize wave effects.
• Driving through standing water may
cause damage to your vehicle
drivetrain components. After driving
through standing water, do not drive
if you are not sure about drivetrain
condition. Such damage is not
covered by the New Vehicle
Warranty.
• Getting water inside your vehicle
engine can cause it to lock up and
stall out, and cause serious internal
damage to the engine. Such damage
is not covered by the New Vehicle
Warranty.
• After driving through standing
water always have the fluids (engine
oil, transmission oil, etc) checked for
contamination at an Authorized
Maserati Dealer .
WARNING!
• Driving through standing water
limits your vehicle traction
capabilities. Do not exceed 5 mph
(8 km/h) when driving through
standing water.
• Driving through standing water limits your vehicle braking
capabilities, which increases
stopping distances. Therefore, after
driving through standing water,
drive slowly and lightly press on the
brake pedal several times to
progressively dry the brakes discs
and pads.
• Getting water inside your vehicle
engine can cause it to lock up and
stall out.
• Failure to follow these warnings
may result in injuries that are
serious or fatal to you, your
passengers, and others around you. Pollution Control Devices Even if the vehicle is fitted with
antipollution devices, the environment
deserves the greatest respect from
every one of us.
By following a few simple rules, the
driver can avoid damaging the
environment and very often can
reduce fuel consumption as well.
In this regard, some useful
information is listed here below;
please read it carefully.
• The first precaution is to follow the
Scheduled Service Plan scrupulously
(see “Scheduled Service Plan” in
section “Maintenance and Care”.
• The correct operation of the
antipollution devices not only helps
respect for the environment, but
also has an impact on vehicle
efficiency. Keeping these devices in
good working conditions is the first
rule for driving both ecologically
sound and economically.
• Always use unleaded fuel.
• If starting is difficult, do not make
prolonged attempts. In particular,
avoid push starts, towing or
downhill starts: these are all
maneuvers that can damage the
catalytic converters. For any Driving
5
197

emergency starting, only use an
auxiliary battery.
• While driving, if the engine does not
run smoothly, you may continue
driving but reducing engine
performance to a minimum; you
should then contact the Authorized
Maserati Dealer as soon as possible.
• Never run the engine, even if only
for testing, with one or more spark
plugs disconnected.
• Do not warm up the engine letting it
idle before starting off, except in the
event that the external temperature
is very low and, even then, for no
longer than 30 seconds.
Catalytic Converter Warnings During normal operation the catalytic
converter produces high temperatures.
Failure to comply with following rules
can create fire hazards.
• Do not park the vehicle on
flammable materials (e.g. grass, dry
leaves, pine needles, etc.).
• Do not install heat guards and do
not remove those already fitted to
the catalytic converter and to the
exhaust manifold.
• Do not spray anything on the
catalytic converter, Oxygen sensor
and exhaust manifold. In addition to the catalytic converter
system, the vehicles are equipped with
a system for controlling fuel vapor
emissions. This system, called ORVR,
has been designed to help reduce
atmospheric pollution by the
evaporation from the fuel system
during the refueling process. Also,
specific to these vehicles is the fuel
filler neck which comes equipped with
a sealed plug that is grounded to
avoid possible sparking during
re-fueling.
WARNING!
California Proposition 65
Operating, servicing and maintaining
a passenger vehicle or off-road vehicle
can expose you to chemicals including
such as, engine exhaust, carbon
monoxide, phthalates and lead, that
which are know to the State of
California to cause cancer and birth
defects or other reproductive harm. To
minimize exposure, avoid breathing
exhaust, do not idle the engine except
as necessary, service your vehicle in a
well-ventilated area and wear gloves
or wash your hands frequently when
servicing your vehicle. For more
information go to: www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/passenger-
vehicle
Other Tips • Do not warm up the engine when
the vehicle is stationary: in these
conditions the engine heats up much
more slowly, thus increasing fuel
consumption and emissions. It is
advisable to move off slowly,
avoiding high engine rpm.
• As soon as traffic conditions and the
route permit it, use a higher gear.
• Avoid depressing the accelerator
repeatedly during stops at traffic
lights or before turning off the
engine.
• Keep your speed as regular as
possible, avoiding unnecessary
braking and acceleration, which
cause fuel wastage and strongly
increase exhaust emissions.
• Turn the engine off if the vehicle
remains stationary for a long time.
• Check the tire pressure regularly: if
the pressure is too low, fuel
consumption increases and the tires
are damaged.
• Do not transport unnecessary heavy
objects in the trunk compartment.Driving

In the Event of an
Accident It is important always to keep calm.
• If not directly involved, stop at a safe
distance of at least 10 yards away
from the accident area.
• If on a highway, stop without
obstructing the emergency lane and
be especially careful if you need to
exit the vehicle.
• Turn off the engine and switch on
the hazard warning flashers.
• At night, illuminate the accident
area with the headlights.
• Always act with caution to avoid the
risk of being crashed into by other
drivers.
• Indicate that an accident has
occurred by placing the emergency
triangle (if equipped) in a well
visible position and at the prescribed
distance.
• Call the emergency services,
providing as much information as
possible. On the highway, use the
special call boxes.
• Remove the ignition key (if present)
from the vehicles involved.
• If fuel or other chemical products
can be smelled, do not smoke and ask people around you to put their
cigarettes out.
• To extinguish fires, even small ones,
use a fire extinguisher, blankets,
sand or earth. Never use water.
• In multiple accidents occurred on
highways, particularly where
visibility is poor, there is a high risk
of being involved in other collisions.
Leave the vehicle immediately and
move away from the area.
In case of Injured Persons • Never leave the injured person
alone. Persons not directly involved
in the accident are also required to
give assistance.
• Do not crowd around injured
persons.
• Reassure the injured person that
help is on the way.

Using the Compact Spare
Wheel (for versions/markets
where provided)
Upon request, the vehicle may come
equipped with a compact spare wheel
(emergency wheel), jack and tools for
replacing a wheel. The compact spare wheel is stored in
the trunk and is supplied deflated in
order to limit the amount of space
occupied. An electric compressor is
also provided for inflating. In the
event of a tire puncture, proceed as
follows.
• Stop the vehicle in a place that does
not constitute a danger to traffic
and where the wheel can be
changed safely. The vehicle must be
level and on firm ground.
• Select the P (Park) mode and then
engage manually the electric
parking brake and turn the key in
the ignition switch to STOP (OFF)
position.
• If necessary, turn the hazard warning
flashers on and place the warning
triangle at the required distance.
WARNING!
• The jack should be used on level
firm ground wherever possible.
• It is recommended that the wheels
of the vehicle be chocked, and that
no person should remain in a vehicle
that is being jacked.
• If the vehicle has been stopped on a

following the sequence shown in the
picture.
WARNING!
• Observe the tightening torque for
the bolts securing the wheels (72 ±
7 lbf·ft / 98 ± 10 Nm). This is
equivalent to a load of
approximately 44 lb (20 kg) being
placed on the handle of the wrench
supplied when extended for use.
• After refitting the standard wheel,
check the tire pressure.
WARNING!
• The spare wheel is narrower than
standard wheels and must only be
used to travel the distance required
to reach a service station, where the punctured tire can be repaired or
replaced.
• Do not exceed a maximum speed of
50 mph (80 km/h) when using the
compact spare wheel; when this
limit is exceeded, the stability, road
holding and braking of the vehicle
will be compromised. Avoid
accelerating to full speed, heavy
braking and fast cornering.
• The compact spare wheel must be
inflated to the recommended tire
pressure (see “Tire Inflation
Pressure” in section “Features and
Specifications”).
• For safety reasons, it is absolutely
forbidden to drive with more than
one compact spare wheel fitted on
the vehicle.
• Snow chains cannot be fitted on the
compact spare wheel.
• The spare wheel can travel a
maximum of 1,800 mi (3.000 km).
NOTE:
The
used wheel may soil the mats if it
is housed in the car: protect them if
possible. To Refit the Standard Wheel with
Repaired or Replaced Tire
• Following the procedure and the
caution described above, raise the
vehicle and remove the compact
spare wheel reusing the supplied
wrench with adapter, suitably
extended.
• Fit the standard wheel with repaired
