Vehicle Security Alarm
The vehicle security alarm system
performs the following functions:
• remote control of the centralized
door locking/unlocking system;
• perimeter surveillance, detecting the
opening of doors, engine/trunk
compartment lids;
• motion surveillance, detecting
intrusion in the passenger
compartment;
• vehicle movement surveillance.
NOTE:
The engine immobilizer operation is
guaranteed by the Maserati CODE
system, which is automatically
activated when the key is removed
from the ignition switch.
Alarm System Activation
Press thelock button on the key to
activate the security alarm system.• The turn signals flash once.
• The system beeps.
• The red LEDs on the front door
panels flash.
• The vehicle centralized door locking
is activated and the doors are locked.
The system becomes operative after
approximately 25 seconds and the
alarm is activated when:
• a door is opened;
• the trunk compartment lid is opened;
• the engine compartment lid is
opened;
• someone attempts to enter the
vehicle from a window;
• the power supply is disconnected;
• the siren is disconnected;
• the vehicle is moved.
When the vehicle security alarm is
active, the user may request the trunk
compartment opening; in this case, themotion and inclination sensors are
temporarily deactivated.
If the trunk compartment lid is then
closed, the sensors will be reactivated.
Should the turn signals flash 9 times
when you activate the security alarm
system, this means that one of the
doors or lids is not properly closed and
therefore is not protected by the
perimeter surveillance.
Check for correct closing of doors,
engine/trunk compartment lids and
close the open one without
deactivating the security alarm system:
the turn signals flashing once indicate
that now the door, engine/trunk
compartment lids are closed properly
and are protected by the perimeter
surveillance.
CAUTION!
If the turn signals flash 9 times when
the security alarm system is activated
with doors, front and rear lids properly
closed, this means that the
self-diagnostic function has detected a
malfunction in the system and that
you should contact anAuthorized
Maserati Dealerto have the system
checked.

Alarm System Deactivation
Press thelock button on the key to
activate the security alarm system.
• The turn signals flash twice.
• The system emits a double beep.

• The centralized door locking system
is activated and the doors are
unlocked.
The security alarm system is off and it
is therefore possible to get into the
vehicle and start the engine.
Pressing the
unlock button twice
unlocks the doors and also switches on
the low beams for 30 seconds.
NOTE:
The security alarm system is not

(key in theSTOP (OFF)position).
Deactivation is signaled by the LED on
the button flashing for 3 seconds.
CAUTION!
Anti-intrusion and anti-lift protections
override is memorized until the alarm
is next activated: therefore, if these
protections are overridden but the
alarm is not activated immediately, the
override will remain memorized until
the next time it is activated, regardless
of turning the vehicle on/off.
Security Alarm Memory

on the display when the vehicle is
started, accompanied by the message
“Break-in attempt detected” this
means that an intrusion has been
attempted during your absence.

In the event of an emergency (vehicle
dead battery or electric system failure)
to open the doors, with the locks
released, press the rear button inside
each handle. Otherwise, if the doors
are locked, you must release them by
turning the key in the lock to open
them, then press the rear button.
In this case, being a conventional
mechanism, hold the rear button
pressed down longer.On the door panels, in a position
which is visible from the outside, there
is a dual-color (green/red) LED E which
indicates the status of the locks
(locked/unlocked). The red LEDs
illuminate for 3 seconds after the locks
are engaged and the green LEDs for
the same amount of time when they
are unlocked.
NOTE:
The door LEDs remain illuminated for
approximately 3 seconds and
therefore, in normal conditions, they
are off.
When the security alarm system is
turned on and the doors are locked,
the LEDs on the doors flash.
The radio control device allows you to
operate the centralized opening of all
the doors or of the driver’s door only,
depending on the Maserati TouchControl Plus (MTC+) settings (see
"MTC+ Settings" in section
"Dashboard Instrument and
Controls").
If one or more doors are not properly
closed when locking the doors from
the outside, they will not be locked,
while if the trunk compartment is not
properly closed, the doors will in any
case be locked.
In both cases, the malfunction will be
indicated by the turn signals flashing
for a few seconds.
NOTE:
•The interior door locking/unlocking,
trunk compartment lid opening and
fuel tank door opening buttons are
disabled when the doors are locked
from the outside.
•In the event that the inertia switch
activates, the doors are electrically
unlocked and the vehicle can be
accessed by pressing the rear button
inside each handle.

WARNING!
•When the door is opened, the
window is automatically lowered
slightly; when the door is closed
again, the window is automatically
raised. Always ensure that
passengers (especially children) are
clear of the windows when
opening/closing the doors.
•Improper use of the power windows
can be dangerous. Ensure that
passengers are clear of the windows
before closing them. When leaving
the vehicle, always remove the key
from the ignition switch to prevent
the power windows from being
accidentally activated: this could
endanger any passengers remaining
in the vehicle.
•Never leave unattended children in a
vehicle.
•Failure of the soft top temporarily
(for approx. 10 mins) prevents
movement of the electric windows.
Once this period has elapsed, the
windows function normally.
Auto-Down Feature
The driver door power window switch
and some model passenger door
power window switches have an
auto-down feature.
Press the window switch to the second
detent, release, and the window will
go completely down automatically.
To open the window part way, press
the window switch to the first detent
and release it when you want the
window to stop.
To stop the window from going all the
way down during the auto-down
operation, pull up on the switch
briefly.
Auto-Up Feature
Lift the window switch to the second
detent, release, and the window will
go all the way up automatically.
To stop the window from going all the
way up during the auto-up operation,
push down on the switch briefly.
To close the window part way, lift the
window switch to the first detent and
release it when you want the window
to stop.
NOTE:
•Any impact due to rough road
conditions may trigger the auto
reverse function unexpectedly during
auto-closure. If this happens, pull the
switch lightly to the first detent and
hold to close the window manually.

Should the auto-up/down feature stop
working, the window probably needs
to be reset.
To reset auto-up/down, pull the
window switch up to close the
window completely and push the
window switch down to open the
window completely.
If You have to Disconnect the
Battery
Before disconnecting the battery,

in (4-5 cm) to avoid damaging the soft
top strip when opening and closing
the door.
When the battery is connected, this
operation is performed automatically
when the door is opened and closed.
The windows must remain lowered
until the charged battery is
reconnected. If the battery is
completely discharged when the
windows are fully raised, only open
the door if absolutely necessary, with
the utmost care; do not close the door
again until it is possible to lower the
window.
