Loading with Rear Seatbacks
Folded Down The 60/40 split-folding seatback of the
rear seat provides cargo-carrying
versatility.
The seatback folded down provides a
continuous nearly-flat extension of the load floor able to accommodate
bulky luggage, large-sized equipment
and objects that may not fit with the
normal dimensions of the trunk.
NOTE:
Both seat backs can be folded down
independently.
WARNING!
To prevent the other luggage in the
trunk from getting into the passenger
compartment and create a potential
danger for the passengers, keep trunk
cover installed when folding down
one of the two seatbacks.
When the seatbacks are unfolded to
the
upright position, make
sure they
are latched in one of the fixed
positions (see “Rear Seats” in this
section).
WARNING!
• Make sure that the seatback is
securely locked into position. If the
seatback is not securely locked into
position, the seat will not provide
the proper stability for child seats
and/or rear passengers. An improperly latched seat could cause
serious injury.
• Always check that the head restraint
of the rear seats that must be
occupied by a passenger is correctly
adjusted (see chapter “Head
Restraints” in this section).
• The cargo area in the rear of the
vehicle with the rear seatbacks in
the folded down position should not
be used as a play area by children
when the vehicle is in motion. They
could be seriously injured in a
collision. Children should be seated
and use proper restraint systems.
Ski and Snowboard Bag
Compartment To stow and safely fasten a ski and
snowboard bag, with no need to fold
down the seatback, use the opening
available at the back of the longer
seatback (60), at the level of the
armrest between the rear seats.
To reach this compartment and
properly arrange the bag, proceed as
follows.
• From inside the passenger
compartment, lower the armrest

cover inner part out of their guides
on trunk panel;
• remove trunk cover from the vehicle.
The two parts of trunk cover can be
folded one onto the other for a more
compact unit.
WARNING!
Driving with no trunk cover could be
dangerous. Any unfastened luggage
or objects could move into the
passenger compartment in case of
sudden stop or collision and seriously
injure the occupants. You can try to
prevent this by using the Cargo Net in
the trunk compartment.
When refitting the trunk cover,
perform
the same operations in
reverse order. WARNING!
After refitting the trunk cover, make
sure that the lower ends of the inner
part have properly engaged in their
guides. If cover is not properly
positioned and fastened, in case of
unexpected stop or collision it could
move and seriously injure the
passengers in the rear seats.
Cargo Area Extension The following procedure is aimed at
obtaining the maximum possible
extension of the cargo area, and it can
be only a partial extension if you carry
out only a few of the listed
operations.
• Remove the trunk cover as indicated
under “Trunk Compartment Cover”
in this chapter.
• Completely lower the headrests of
rear seats.
• Completely fold down the rear seats
backrests by lifting the lever to
position 1 and hold it up. • Release the lever when seatback is
against the seat: the control cable
will click into place and lock.
• In this position, push down on the
seatback of the long part (60): the
control cable will click into place and
lock.
Now that seatbacks are folded down,
trunk floor and the back panels of
seatbacks will form a larger flat floor.Understanding the Vehicle

CAUTION!
Seatback rear panel is not suitable to
support heavy loads and metal objects
with protruding elements that might
scratch its surface. If necessary, protect
the seatback rear panel surface using
rigid panels.
Installing the Cargo Net for
Cargo Area The Cargo Net can be installed to two
positions depending on the current
extension of the cargo area. When
only the trunk cover is removed (see
previous paragraph), while backrests
are still vertical, the Cargo Net must be
installed immediately behind them
(position A ).
While, in case also backrests were
folded down, the Cargo Net must be installed in a more forward position
behind the front seats (position B ).
WARNING!
• Before install the Cargo Net in the
more forward position make sure
that the backrests are locked in the
lowest position.
• The Cargo Net must be properly
installed following the instructions
in this paragraph.
• The Cargo Net will not properly hold
objects in case of sudden vehicle
braking or collision depending on
cargo weight. Heavy loads not
sufficiently fastened could exceed
net capacity and hit the vehicle
occupants, with the ensuing risk of
injury.
• Before leaving for a trip, fasten all objects that might move to trunk
floor, using the devices provided by
Maserati for this purpose.
• When using the Cargo Net, do not
load any heavy object on top of the
other objects which are laid on the
trunk floor (see example in the
figures).Understanding the Vehicle

Tire Pressure Monitoring Light
This warning light is connected
to the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS).
Under normal conditions, the
warning light should illuminate when
the ignition switch is in RUN and
should go off once the engine is
started.
If the warning light remains lit or
illuminates while driving, the pressure
of one or more tires is too low and a
message will be displayed.
The TPMS malfunction warning light is
connected to the low tire pressure
monitoring light.
When the system detects a
malfunction, the monitoring light and
the related message will flash for
approximately one minute and then
remain lit.
This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle startups as long as
the malfunction lasts.
When the malfunction warning lights
up, the system may not be able to
detect or signal low tire pressure
correctly. Please refer to “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” in section
“Driving” for further information.
Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS)
Malfunction Warning Light
This light, and its related
message, indicate possible
malfunctions of the Anti-Lock
Brake System (ABS).
The light will turn on when the
ignition switch is in RUN position and
may stay on for 4 seconds. If the ABS
light remains lit or turns on while
driving, the Anti-Lock portion of the
brake system is not functioning and
requires service. However, the
conventional brake system will
continue to operate normally if the
warning light is switched off. If
the ABS light turns on while driving, or
if it does not switch on when the
ignition switch is in RUN position,
please visit an Authorized Maserati
Dealer as soon as possible to restore
the Anti-Lock brake function.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light
The ESC activation/malfunction
indicator light on the
instrument cluster will display
when the ignition switch is in
RUN position. It should switch off by starting the
engine.
If the light stays on with the engine
running, there is a malfunction in the
ESC system.
If the light still stays on after several
ignition cycles, and the vehicle has
been driven for several miles at more
than 30 mph (48 km/h) speed, visit an
Authorized Maserati Dealer as soon as
possible to have the problem
diagnosed and serviced.
NOTE:
Each time the ignition switch is in RUN :
• The ESC OFF indicator light
and
the ESC activation/malfunction
indicator light illuminates
temporarily.
• When the ESC is functioning, the
system will make buzzing or clicking
sounds. This is normal. The sounds
will stop once ESC becomes inactive
and the road conditions that caused
the ESC activation no longer persist.

High Beam Indicator
This indicator lights up when
the high beams are switched
on or when blinking.
Brake Indicator Light
This light monitors various
brake functions, including
brake fluid level, brake pads
wear and parking brake
engagement.
If the brake light illuminates the
parking brake may be engaged, the
brake pads have reached wear limit,
the brake fluid level may be low or a
problem with the anti-lock brake
system (ABS) reservoir may have
occurred.
In all the above situations, a related
message will be displayed.
If the light still illuminates when the
parking brake has been disengaged,
and the fluid level is at the full mark
on the master cylinder reservoir, there
could be a brake hydraulic system malfunction or a problem with the
brake booster detected by the
ABS/ESC system. If this occurs, the light
will remain lit until the problem has
been solved.
If the problem concerns the brake
booster, the ABS master cylinder will
run when engaging the brake and a
brake pedal pulsation may be felt
during each stop of the vehicle.
Inefficiency of one of the dual brake
system cycles is indicated by the brake
indicator light, which will turn on
when the brake fluid level in the
master cylinder has dropped below a
certain level.
The light will remain lit until the
problem has been solved.
If a brake failure occurs, visit an
Authorized Maserati Dealer as soon as
possible in order to check up the
brake system.
In the event of an Electronic Brake
Force Distribution (EBD) failure, both
the brake indicator light and the ABS
light illuminate.
Immediate repair of the ABS system is
required.
