Open and Close the Hood Opening From inside the vehicle, pull the hood
release lever located under the left
lower side of the dashboard.
Move to the outside and stand in front
of the vehicle front grille.
Slightly lift the hood and lift the safety
lever as indicated by the arrow. The
safety lever is located in the center of
the front lid contact area. Lift the hood completely: this
operation is facilitated by two gas
struts keeping the fully open position.
With the key in the ignition switch in
MAR (ON) position, the specific red
warning light will display on the
instrument cluster with the message
indicating that the hood is open (see
chapter “Instrument Cluster” in section
“Dashboard Instrument and
Controls”).
Closing Lower the hood to about 20 cm (8 in)
from the contact area of the engine
compartment and then drop it. This
should secure the inclusion of the
latch. CAUTION!
To prevent possible damage, do not
slam the hood to close it.
WARNING!
• Be sure the hood is fully latched
before driving your vehicle. If the lid
is not fully latched, it could open
when the vehicle is in motion and
block your vision. Failure to follow
this warning could result in serious
injury or death.
• Gear shifting is always active and
may be performed even when one
or more doors, the hood or the trunk
lid are open. Therefore, in these
conditions, take great care to avoid
moving the transmission shift lever
and so accidentally engage gears.Before Starting

Occupants Restraint
Systems The listed occupants restraint systems
are some of the most important safety
features in your vehicle:
• Three-point seat belts (also called lap
and shoulder belts) for the driver
and all passengers.
• Front air bags for driver and
passenger.
• Seat-mounted side air bags for the
driver and front passenger.
• An energy-absorbing steering
column and steering wheel.
• Seat belts incorporate a pretensioner
(Emergency Tensioning Device - ETD)
that may enhance occupant
protection by managing the energy
created during an impact.
• All seat belt retractors are equipped
with load limiting devices which
control the seat belt reeling out so
as to adjust the force exerted on the
shoulders while the seat belt is in
restraining mode.
• All seat belts system (except the
driver’s) include Automatic Locking
Retractors (ALR), which lock the seat
belt webbing into position by
extending the belt all the way out and then adjusting the belt to the
desired length to restrain a child seat
or secure a large item in a seat.
Please pay close attention to the
information in this section. It tells you
how to use your restraint system
properly, to keep you and your
passengers as safe as possible.
If you are carrying children too small
for adult-sized seat belts, the seat
belts or the Lower Anchors and Tether
for CHildren (LATCH) feature also can
be used to hold infant and child
restraint systems. For more
information on LATCH, refer to
“Lower Anchors and Tether for
CHildren (LATCH)” in this section.
WARNING!
To help provide maximum protection,
you are advised to keep the seatback
in the most upright position possible
and the seat belt close to your chest
and pelvis. If the seat belt is loose, in
the event of an accident you could
move too far forward and could be
injured. Travelling with the seatback
too far reclined could also be
dangerous: even if the seat belts are
fastened, they may not work
correctly. In fact, the belt itself may
not be close enough to your body and, if it is in front of you, it could
cause neck wounds or other injuries in
an accident. Additionally, in an
accident, the lower section of the belt
could press against the upper part of
your stomach rather than the pelvic
area, causing serious internal injuries.
Here are some simple steps you can
take
to minimize the risk of harm
from a deploying air bag:
• Children 12 years old and under
should always ride buckled up in a
rear seat.
WARNING!
Infants in rear facing child restraints
should never ride in the front seat of
a vehicle with a passenger front air
bag. An air bag deployment can cause
severe or fatal injury to infants in that
position.
Do not use child seats or child booster
cushions/backrests in the front
passenger seat. Occupants in the front
passenger seat must never sit on the
edge of the seat, leaning toward the
dashboard or otherwise sit out of
position. The occupants’ back must be
as upright as comfort allows, and
must rest against the seatback with

the seat belt properly fastened. Feet
must be on the floor (i.e. not on the
dashboard, seat or out of the
window).
Children that are not big enough to
wear
the vehicle seat belt properly (see
“Child Restraints System” in this
section) should be secured in the rear
seat in child restraints seats or
belt-positioning booster seats. Older
children who do not use child
restraints seats or belt-positioning
booster seats should ride properly
buckled up in the rear seat. Never
allow children to slide the shoulder
belt behind them or under their arm.
The safest place for a child that has
outgrown the child safety seat is in the
rear seat using the standard seat belt
in combination with a suitable booster
seat if needed so the seat belt is
properly located on the child.
You should read the instructions
provided with your child restraint
system to make sure that you are using
it properly.
• All occupants should always wear
their lap and shoulder belts properly.
• The driver and front passenger seats
should be moved back as far as possible to allow the front air bags
room to inflate.
• Do not lean against the door or
window. Your vehicle has
seat-mounted side air bag and, if
deployment occurs, they will inflate
forcefully into the space between
you and the door.
• If the air bag system in this vehicle
needs to be modified to
accommodate a disabled person,
contact an Authorized Maserati
Dealer .
WARNING!
In an accident, all occupants can suffer
much greater injuries if not properly
buckled up. You can strike the interior
of your vehicle or other occupants or
you can be thrown out of the vehicle.
Always be sure you and others in your
vehicle are buckled up properly.
Buckle up even though you are an
excellent driver, even on short trips.
Someone on the road may be a poor
driver and cause an accident that
includes you. This can happen far
away from home or on your own
street.
Statistics report that seat belts save
lives
and help reduce the seriousness of injuries in an accident. Some of the
worst injuries happen when people are
thrown from the vehicle. Seat belts
reduce the possibility of ejection and
the risk of injury caused by striking the
inside of the vehicle.
Everyone in a motor vehicle should be
belted at all times.
Three-Point Seat Belts All seating positions in your vehicle are
equipped with combination lap and
shoulder belts.
The belt retractor is designed to lock
during very sudden stops or impacts.
This feature allows the shoulder part
of the belt to move freely with you
under normal conditions, conforming
to the body of the occupants.
However, in an accident, the belt will
lock and reduce your risk of striking
the inside of the vehicle or being
thrown out.
The driver is responsible for respecting,
and ensuring that all the other
occupants of the car also observe the
local regulations concerning the use of
seat belts. Always fasten the seat belts
before starting the vehicle.
Seat belts are designed to be used by
persons whose physical characteristics
(age, height, weight) are provided for
by established legislation in eachBefore Starting
