ABS MASERATI LEVANTE 2019 Owner's Manual

prevent the function from working.
FCW braking and stability system
interventions (ESC, ABS) will also
prevent the system from operating.
Changing lane results in system
inhibition for a certain time.
In addition the road must respect
some characteristics such as minimum-
maximum width, lane clearly defined
by two lane boundaries and only in
limited case for a limited time at least
one.
NOTE:
• In case of wet road or raining
conditions the function could be
disabled by the system in order to
minimize the risks.
• With lane boundaries it is mainly
referred to painted lines,
nevertheless the system in good
conditions might properly recognise
as valid lane boundaries also other
types (for example road edges,
curbs, etc..). Speed Range of Use Speed mph (km/h)
Minimum 37 (60)
Engaged/activated 37 (60)
Maximum 112 (180)
System Limitation Because of physical limits the system
to properly operate needs good
visibility (it might not work or not
properly operate in case of heavy rain,
snow, wet roads, fog, direct sun on
the camera, dirty windshield, low
illumination etc.)
Sharp turns, slopes and change in
slopes, poor lane boundaries, as well
as construction areas and all the
scenarios described in this paragraph
may challenge the system, therefore
be always ready to prevent any
unexpected behaviour of the car.
Damaged front bumper, windshield
replaced without proper technical
intervention may also lead to system
malfunction or system unavailability.
Other conditions such as faults, but
not explicitly indicated here may also
prevent/interrupt the system
intervention. ABSA Setting ABSA is configurable by the customer
in order to maximize its efficiency
based on the driver driving style and
his/her expectation of the system,
reducing at the same time the possible
invasiveness.
Setting modes can be selected from
the MTC+ System (see "MTC+
"Controls" Screen" in section
"Dashboard Instruments and
Controls" for further information).
Touch "Controls" soft-key to display
the current status of the ABSA system,
if it was in the on state.
To change status, touch the "Active
Blind Spot Assist" soft-key.
To change the system setting, touch
the soft-key on the side.
Driver warnings can be only "Visual",
"Visual & Acoustic" (default mode) or
"Visual & Haptic".Driving

System sensitivity can be set to “Early”,
“Medium” (default mode) or “Late”.
System strength can be set to "Low",
"Medium" (default mode) or "High".
NOTE:
The ABSA system will store the current
operating mode when the vehicle is
shut off. Each time the vehicle is
started, the previously-stored mode
will be recalled and used.
Meanings of Settings
When "Visual & Haptic" is selected and
of course ABSA is enabled, then two
following menus will be used by the
system.
• ABSA "Sensitivity": it tunes the
distance to the lane boundary where
the system will start to apply steering
torque. • ABSA “Strength": it tunes the
steering torque value to have a
stronger or weaker trajectory
correction/deviation.
Blind Spot Assist in "Visual & Haptic"
Mode
When the system is on and configured
“Visual & Haptic” then the ABSA is
enabled and to the conventional visual
warnings is added the steering torque
and vibration.
When operating in this mode, the
system will provide a visual alert in the
appropriate outside rear-view mirror
when it detects a vehicle or an object
in the detection areas monitored by its
sensors. In case of turn indicator
activation on the appropriate side, the
system will react with a torque on the
steering wheel to try to prevent the
lane change and therefore to
avoid/mitigate the collision. The
torque on the steering is applied when
the car is very close to the lane
boundary as a further feedback to
warn the driver of the unsafe
maneuver.
NOTE:
• The steering torque is not supplied if
the system is not able to estimate a
lane and if the turn indicator from
the appropriate side is not inserted. • The presence of the hands on the
steering wheel is detected by a logic
combination of a capacitive sensor
installed in the steering wheel and
the measured applied torque at the
steering column. This leads to a more
robust hands detection.
WARNING!
• Risk of accident despite steering
torque application of Active Blind
Spot Assist (ABSA).
• A course-correcting steering torque
application cannot always prevent a
collision.
• The driver is always required to
steer, brake or accelerate themself,
especially if ABSA warns or makes a
course correcting steer intervention.
• Always maintain a safe distance at
the sides.
• Steering torque application may be
interrupted at any time by counter
steering by the driver.
RCP - Rear Cross Path
Operation RCP operation is the same as described
in chapter "Blind Spot Assist - BSA".Driving

312

When ABSA is turned off from MTC+
"Controls" page, there will be no
visual or audible alerts from RCP
subsystem.
When ABSA is turned on with any
setting,RCP subsystem shall respond
with both visual and audible alerts
when a detected vehicle or object is
present. Whenever an audible alert is
requested, the radio (if on) is also
muted.
Right/left turn/hazard signal status is
ignored; the RCP status always
requests the chime.
System Temporarily
Unavailable The blind spot system will become
temporarily unavailable and the
instrument cluster display will show
the message “Blind Spot Alert
Temporarily Unavailable” when the
vehicle enters a radio quite zone
(example the areas around radio
telescopes).
The warning light on the outside
rear-view mirrors will be lit up and
stay lit until the vehicle exits the zone.
System in Fault The ABSA system cannot properly
operate either due to a fault of its
components, or because the area on windshield where the forward-facing
camera is located or on the rear
bumper fascia where the radar sensors
are located is dirty. In these cases the
amber warning light and the related
message will be displayed on the
instrument cluster.
In these cases do not use the system
and have the vehicle inspected at an
Authorized Maserati Dealer .
Radar Device - Regulatory
Information The “Regulatory Information” for all
the radio frequency and radar devices
can be consulted by accessing the
"Services" section on the website
www.maserati.com.Highway Assist – HAS
(optional, with ACC only) The Highway Assist (HAS) is a level 2
Autonomy system (in reference to
NHTSA standards) that is designed to
aid the driver in the steering,
acceleration, and braking functions of
the vehicle.
HAS is designed to only function on
highways or limited access freeways.
HAS centers the vehicle by controlling
the EPS system based off of lane line
information from the forward-facing
camera and data from the front radar
sensor.
HAS combines ACC and LKA to
manage the steering and speed of the
vehicle under specific conditions. The
conditions to engage HAS are listed in
the next paragraph. If a lane line cross
is imminent, the steering wheel willDriving

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

Useful Advice to Extend
Battery Life When parking the vehicle, make sure
that the doors, hood, liftgate and flaps
are properly closed. All interior lights
should be off.
When the engine is turned off, do not
keep the connected devices switched
on for a long time (such as radio,
hazard warning flashers, fan, etc.).
CAUTION!
If the battery charge remains below
50% for a long period of time, it will
be damaged due to sulfation; its
performance and starting power will
be reduced and it will be more subject
to freezing. We recommend you to have the
battery
charge condition checked,
preferably
at the beginning of the cold
season, to prevent the electrolyte from
freezing.
This check should be carried out more
frequently if the vehicle is used mainly
for short trips or if it is equipped with
power-absorbing devices that remain
permanently on even when the
ignition switch is off. This applies
above all if these devices have been
retrofitted ("Aftermarket" services).
If the vehicle is not used for long
periods of time, please see “Vehicle
Stored for Long Periods” in this
section.
Battery Recharge WARNING!
The process of charging or recharging
the battery produces hydrogen, a
flammable gas that can explode and
cause serious injuries. When charging
or recharging the battery, follow the
recommended precautions at all times.
• Before using a charger device always
check that this tool is suitable for the
installed battery, with constant
voltage (lower than 14.0 V) and low
amperage (maximum limit 15 A). • Recharge the battery in a
well-ventilated environment.
• Never charge or recharge a frozen
battery.
• Ensure that any sparks or open
flames are kept well away from the
battery while it is charging.
• Before using a charger to charge or
maintain the battery charge status,
carefully follow the instructions
provided to ensure the charger is
connected to the battery safely and
correctly.
It is possible to recharge the battery
without
disconnecting the cables
of
the vehicle electrical system.
• To access the battery lift the ground
coverage of the trunk compartment
(see chapter “Tool Kit” section “In an
Emergency”) and remove the storage
box.
• Remove the protection cover and
connect the terminal clamp of the
charger positive cable (typically in
red) to the positive post (+) of the
battery.
• Connect the terminal clamp of the
charger negative cable (typically in
black) to the nut located by theMaintenance and Care
