normal visibility conditions to avoid
dazzling vehicles behind.
Pressing again thebutton 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 anAuthorized
Maserati Dealeras soon as possible.

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 theAuthorized
Maserati Dealeras soon as possible.

Sport Skyhook Suspension
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
The electronic system controlling the
vehicle suspension uses the
sophisticated on board sensors and is
aimed at optimizing vehicle
performance.
The system is capable of constantly
monitoring suspension damping by
means of the actuator fitted on each
shock absorber (Skyhook type). This
way, the shock absorber setting is
suited to the road surface conditions
and vehicle dynamics, thus improving
passenger comfort and road-holding.
By pressing button “SPORT” on the
central console, the driver can choose,
even while driving, a normal or
dynamic-type setting for the
suspension, depending on their own
driving style.This way, the system operates with a
shock absorber “softer” setting in
NORMAL drive mode, and a “harder”
setting if SPORT drive mode is selected
(see “Drive Mode” in section
“Driving”).
The strategy used by the system
controlling suspension damping is
aimed at reducing the vertical
oscillations of the vehicle (rolling and
pitching) to a minimum.
The activation of SPORT drive mode
sets the suspension for sports-style
driving and acts on the ASR and
gearbox systems as well, modifying
their setting for dynamic-style driving.
System Components
The system is controlled by an ECU
which manages the solenoid valves on
each shock absorber in response to the
sensor signals, thus adjusting
suspension damping and setting.The sensors which enable the ECU to
calculate the vehicle speed, vertical
and side acceleration, as well as the
instantaneous braking system
pressure, thereby controlling
suspension damping, are the
following:
• front left-hand vertical acceleration
sensor;
• front right-hand vertical acceleration
sensor;
• rear vertical acceleration sensor;
• front left-hand wheel acceleration
sensor;
• front right-hand wheel acceleration
sensor;
• lateral acceleration sensor;
• driving speed sensor;
• brake pedal switch.
Self-diagnostics
Whenever the engine is started, the
system performs a self-diagnostic
cycle. If a malfunction is found, the
amber warning light is displayed
accompanied by the message “Check
suspensions” (see paragraph
"Malfunction Indicators" in this
chapter).

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 inMAR (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 apreset 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 toSTOP
(OFF)position and then restart the
engine.

If the malfunction is no longer present
and the
amber warning light on the
display does not illuminate again, the
electronic suspension system will
resume normal operation. On the
other hand, if the problem persists,
the
amber warning light on the
instrument cluster display will turn on
again.
In both cases, the system must be
checked by theAuthorized Maserati
Dealer.
The fault found is memorized by the
ECU and can be diagnosed at an
Authorized Maserati Dealereven if it
has disappeared spontaneously.

Warning and Indicator Lights
on Analog Instruments
Low Fuel Indicator on Fuel Gage
The illumination of the red indicator
inside the gage indicates that there
are approx. 4.7 Gallons (18 liters) of
fuel in the tank.
If the pointer positions on "0"
(beginning of scale) and the fuel
reserve indicator flashes, it means that
there is a system malfunction.
In this case, contact anAuthorized
Maserati Dealerto have the system
checked.
Telltales on Speedometer
Following telltales are displayed on
the fuel level gage and speedometer,
and related messages are visible for 10
seconds on the central sector of the
display, unless otherwise indicated.The telltales indicated with (*) are also
displayed on the TFT display (see “TFT
Display” paragraph in this chapter).
Charging System Warning Light
This warning light shows the
status of the electrical
charging system. If the light
stays on or comes on while
driving, turn off some of the vehicle's
non-essential electrical devices or
increase engine speed (if at idle). If
the charging system warning light
remains on, it means that the vehicle
is experiencing a problem with the
charging system. Require IMMEDIATE
service at anAuthorized Maserati
Dealer.
If jump starting is required, refer to
“Jump Start Procedures” in section “In
an Emergency”.Malfunction Indicator Light (*)
The Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) is part of an
onboard diagnostic system
that monitors engine and
automatic transmission control
systems.
Under normal conditions, this
indicator light should switch on when
the key in the ignition switch is in
MAR (ON)position and switch off
soon after the engine is started.
This is a sign of the indicator light
working properly. If the indicator
remains lighted up or switches on
while driving, there is a failure in the
fuel supply/ignition and emission
control systems.
The failure could cause high exhaust
emissions, loss of performance, poor
vehicle handling and high
consumption levels.
Under these conditions you can
proceed slowly without forcing the
engine or driving at high speeds.
The indicator light will switch off if
the problem is solved.
The error will be registered by the
system in any case.
