Automatic Locking Mode Unsetting
Unbuckle the three point seat belt and
allow it to retract completely to
disengage the automatic locking mode
and activate the vehicle emergency
locking mode.
WARNING!
•The belt and retractor assembly must
be checked by an Authorized
Maserati Dealer and must be
replaced if the Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR) feature or any other
seat belt function is not working
properly.
•Failure to replace the belt and
retractor assembly could increase the
risk of injury in collisions.
Seat Belt Pretensioners
To further enhance the seat belt
efficiency, the vehicle front seat belts
are equipped with ETD (Emergency
Tensioning Device) pretensioners.
These devices “detect”, by means of a
sensor, that a violent crash is occurring
and retract the belts by a few
centimeters. This ensures that the belt
properly adheres to the occupants’bodies before its restraining action
starts.
The seat belt locking indicates that the
device has activated; a small amount
of smoke may be released. The smoke
is not toxic and does not indicate the
presence of a fire.
The pretensioners are activated in the
event of an impact of a certain
severity.
The pretensioner only activates when
the seat belt is fastened.
After a pretensioner activation, the
seat belt can be unfastened as usual,
by pressing the button on the buckle.
The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or lubrication.
Any change to its original condition
invalidates its efficiency. If, in the
event of exceptional natural events
(e.g. floods, heavy storms, etc.), the
device has been in contact with water
and sludge, it is mandatory to replace
it.
To help ensure the best protection
from the pretensioners, wear the belt
in such a way that it fits snugly against
your chest and pelvis.
WARNING!
•The pretensioners can be deployed
only once and activate only whenthe seat belts are fastened. After
activation, contact an Authorized
Maserati Dealer to have the
pretensioners replaced and for
properly discarding the old
components.
•Do not tamper with the pretensioner
components. Any operation must be
performed only by qualified and
authorized personnel. Always
contact an Authorized Maserati
Dealer.
CAUTION!
Work on the vehicle which involves,
vibrations or localized heating (over
212°F/100°C for 6 hours max.) in the
area of the pretensioners may damage
or activate them: vibrations due to
uneven road surfaces or small
obstacles, such as impacts with curbs,
do not affect the units. Please contact
anAuthorized Maserati Dealerif any
interventions must be carried out.
Load Limiting Devices
To enhance passive safety, the front
seat belt retractors are equipped with
load limiting devices which control the
seat belt reeling out so as to adjust the

Safety Tips
Transporting Passengers
WARNING!
•Do not leave children or animals
inside parked vehicles in hot
weather. Interior heat build-up may
cause serious injury.
•Never ride in a cargo area, inside of
a vehicle.
•Do not allow people to ride in any
area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat belts.
•Be sure everyone in your vehicle is
in a seat and using a seat belt
properly.
Exhaust Gas
WARNING!
Exhaust gases can injure. They contain
carbon monoxide (CO), which is
colorless and odorless. Breathing it
can make you unconscious and can
eventually poison you. To avoid
breathing (CO), follow these safety
tips:
•Do not run the engine in a closed
garage or in confined areas any
longer than needed to move your
vehicle in or out of the area.
•If it is necessary to sit in a parked
vehicle with the engine running,
adjust your heating or cooling
controls to force outside air into the
vehicle. Set the blower at high
speed.
•If you are required to drive with the
trunk lid open, make sure that all
windows are closed and the climate
control blowers switch is set at high
speed. DO NOT use the recirculation
mode.
The best protection against carbon
monoxide entry into the passenger
compartment is a properly maintained
engine exhaust system.Whenever detecting a change in the
sound of the exhaust system or
eventual exhaust fumes inside the
vehicle have theAuthorized Maserati
Dealerinspect the complete exhaust
system and adjacent body areas for
broken, damaged, deteriorated, or
mispositioned parts.
Open seams or loose connections
could permit exhaust fumes to seep
into the passenger compartment.
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

may cause irritation even at low
temperatures, especially if used for
long periods of time.
•Do not place anything on the seat
that insulates against heat, such as a
blanket or cushion. This may cause
the seat heater to overheat.

• fan speed (stepless change);
• compressor activation;
• air recirculation.
All the functions listed above can be
modified manually, i.e. the user can
select one or more of these functions
as desired, using the control panel.
The manual selections always have
priority over the automatic ones and
are memorized until the user chooses
the automatic control again.
When a function has been set
manually, the other automatic
functions will not be affected.
The following parameters/functions
can be set/modified manually:
• left-hand/right-hand side air
temperature;
• fan speed;
• air distribution on 7 positions
(left-hand/ right-hand);
• compressor activation;
• single/dual-zone distribution
priority;
• defrosting/defogging function (MAX
DEF);
• air recirculation;
• automatic/manual control of the
system;• heated rear window;
• system deactivation;
• opening/closing of air duct leading
to rear vents.
Activation
The system can be started up in a
number of ways. It is however
advisable to begin by pressing one of
the buttons10AUTO and using the
buttons1or2to set the desired
temperature. This way the system will
operate in fully automatic mode so
that the temperatures set will be
reached as quickly as possible.
In this condition, manual operations
will activate the following functions:
• MONO button7adjusts the air
temperature and distribution in the
two heating/air conditioning areas;
• REAR button12enables/disables the
air flow to the rear vents;
• button6turns off the compressor;
• button8activates/deactivates the
defrosting/defogging function on
the front side windows;
• button11activates/deactivates the
heated rear window.By altering any other parameter
manually, such as the air temperature
or distribution, these features switch
from the fully automatic control mode
(FULL AUTO) to manual mode (AUTO).
On starting the vehicle after stopping,
the various parameters are controlled
manually or automatically, depending
on the options selected by the user
before turning the engine off.
Therefore all the manual operations
performed before the vehicle is turned
off are stored and maintained for the
next start up.
This also applies to the OFF function
