others could be seriously or fatally
injured. Children should be warned
not to touch the parking brake
trigger, brake pedal or the shift
lever.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near
the vehicle, and do not leave the
ignition switch in the ACC or RUN
mode. A child could operate power
windows, other controls, or move
the vehicle.
• Do not leave children or animals
inside parked vehicles in hot
weather. Interior heat build-up may
cause serious injury or death.
• An unlocked car is an invitation to
thieves. Always remove the key fob
from vehicle, cycle the ignition
switch to OFF and lock all doors
when leaving the vehicle
unattended. Sentry Key ®
Immobilizer
System The Sentry Key ®
Immobilizer System
prevents unauthorized vehicle
operation by disabling the engine. The
system does not need to be armed or
activated. Operation is automatic,
regardless of whether the vehicle is
locked or unlocked.
The system uses a key fob with Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter, an
ignition switch and a RF (Radio
Frequency) receiver to prevent
unauthorized vehicle operation.
Therefore, only key fobs expressly
programmed can be used to start and
operate the vehicle.
After placing the ignition in the RUN
position, the Vehicle Security Light (see
picture) will light up for a three
seconds bulb check. If the light remains on after the bulb
check, it indicates that there is a
problem with the electronics: this
condition will result in the engine
being shut off after two seconds.
If the Vehicle Security Light turns on
during normal vehicle operation
(engine running for longer than 10
seconds), an electronic fault is
detected. Should this occur, contact
the Authorized Maserati Dealer as
soon as possible for assistance.
CAUTION!
The Sentry Key ®
Immobilizer system is
not compatible with some remote
starting systems that can be installed
in after-market.
Use of these systems may result in
vehicle starting problems and loss of
security protection.
All key fobs provided with the new
vehicle
have been updated with the
vehicle electronics and are therefore
able to guarantee correct functioning
and protection.Before Starting

Power Windows The window controls on the driver's
door panel govern all the door
windows.
There are single window controls on
each passenger door trim panel, which
operate the corresponding window.
The window controls will operate only
when the ignition switch is in the ACC
or RUN position. NOTE:
• The power window switches will
remain active for up to 10 minutes
after the ignition switch is turned to
the OFF position. Opening either
front door will cancel this feature.
The time lapse can be set. See “MTC+
Settings” in section “Dashboard
Instruments and Controls” for
further information.
• Frequent activations of the power
windows could result in a temporary
lock out of the motors. In this case,
wait a moment before a new
activation.
WARNING!
Improper use of the power windows
and the sunroof (if equipped) can
however be dangerous, even with the
anti-pinch prevention system. Before
and during activation of the power
window, always check that the
passengers are not exposed to the risk
of injury both by the moving window
and by personal objects that could be
dragged or hit by it. Do not leave
unattended children in a vehicle with
a key fob RKE transmitter inside.
When getting out the vehicle, always
remove the key fob RKE transmitter to prevent the windows being
accidentally activated, posing a risk to
passengers remaining onboard.

Power Sunshades on Rear
Door Windows (for
versions/markets, where
provided) NOTE:
• On vehicles provided with power
sunshades on the rear windows, the
window switches also operate the
sunshades.
• The rear windows lock button
operates the rear power sunshades
as well.
• The window and sunshades controls
will operate only if the ignition
switch is in ACC or RUN position.
Operation of the rear windows and
related sunshades is done by pressing
or pulling the window switch and
depends on the position of the
windows prior to the command
operation.
As described for the opening and
closing functions of the power
windows (see chapter “Power
Windows” in this section), the
windows switch has two functioning
modes: press and release the switch to
the first detent to partially move the
window; press and release the switch to the second detent to move the
window all the way up or down.
Operations WARNING!
Rear seat passengers must be careful
when operating the sunshades, since
there is the risk of being pinched
between the top of the sunshade and
the head lining, during raising, and
between the top edge of the
sunshade and the door panel, during
lowering.
CAUTION!
Before activating the sunshade, make
sure that no objects can interfere with
its travel.
The following images and the
subsequent
text show the
possible
starting positions (“A”, “B”, “C” and
“UP”, “DOWN”) and function of the
window and the sunshade, to be
independently activated by pressing or

tailpipes as they can reach high
temperatures and, in case of contact,
they can cause severe burns.
• When it is not necessary to open the
power liftgate with the Hands free
mode, make sure the key fob is
outside the range of use (3.3 ft/1 m).
Otherwise, the power liftgate can
be opened accidentally by an
unintentional movement of the
foot.
In order for the sensors to detect your
foot
movement, move your foot
towards the vehicle rather than
sideways and immediately pull it back:
from this moment, the power liftgate
will activate within two seconds.
If closed, with the foot movement the
power liftgate will:
• unlock and completely open;
• after another kick, will stop; • after another kick, will reverse its
movement and completely close
unless stopped again.
If open, with the foot movement the
power liftgate will:
• completely close but not lock;
• another kick before the completed
closing can stop the movement;
• if the movement was stopped
another kick operation will invert a
complete opening.
NOTE:
• If your foot movement fails to
activate the power liftgate
movement, wiggling your foot
under the bumper will not help.
Repeat the whole kick movement.
• In particular situations, external
factors affecting the sensor area may
trigger the Hands free power
liftgate release feature. For example,
when washing the vehicle, a water
jet aimed at the sensor area may
trigger the Hands free power
liftgate release feature. Keep the
key fob RKE transmitter away from
the sensing range of the sensors (10
ft/3 m) or disable the Hands free
feature from the MTC+ menu (see
“MTC+ Settings” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and Controls”). A key fob RKE
transmitter located in the front seat
passenger area is considered out of
range of the Hands free liftgate
release sensor.
• If somebody or something knocks
against the power liftgate while it is
moving, the safety system might
stop lid opening or closing
movement.
Power Liftgate Emergency
Release If the power release control operated
by pressing the button on the dome
console fails, the battery could be in a
low condition. In this case, it is
possible to temporarily power the
system by using the battery remote
poles located inside the engine
compartment (see “Auxiliary
Jump-Start Procedure” in section “In
an Emergency”). Then it is possible to
normally open the power liftgate by
using the key fob RKE transmitter.

• Pull out completely the tape part
with the right buckle ( C );
• Insert the latch plate located at the
end of the lap portion of the belt ( A )
inside the right buckle ( C ).
WARNING!
The restraining action of the central
belt is only possible with the tape part with the left and right buckle
extracted from the seat cushion.
To unlatch the seat belt, release the
right
plate of the lap portion by
clicking on the red button.
Using Seat Belt in Automatic
Locking Retractor Mode (ALR) Use the seat belt automatic locking
mode anytime a child safety seat is
installed in a seating position that has
a belt with this feature.
Children under 5 ft (1.50 m) in height,
should be properly buckled up in a
child restraint system.
Automatic Locking Mode Setting
• Buckle the lap and shoulder belt.
• Grasp the shoulder portion and pull
downward until the entire belt is
extracted.
• Allow the belt to retract. As the belt
retracts, you will hear a clicking
sound. This indicates the safety belt
is now in the automatic locking
mode.
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 The car is equipped with front seat
belt pretensioners, that reduce slack in
the belts in the event of a severe
frontal impact. This guarantees the
perfect adherence of the seat belts to
the occupants bodies before the
restraining action begins.
This car is also equipped with a second
pretensioner in the kick plate area. Its
activation is signalled by the
shortening of the metal cable and
curling of its protective sheath.Before Starting

Here are some tips on getting
the most out of your child
restraint • Before buying any restraint system,
make sure that it has a label
certifying that it meets all applicable
Safety Standards. Maserati also
recommends that you make sure that
you can install the child restraint in
the vehicle where you will use it
before you buy it.
• The restraint system must be
appropriate for your child’s weight
and height.
• Check the label on the restraint
system for weight and height limits.
• Carefully follow the instructions that
come with the restraint system.
• If installed improperly, it may not
work when needed.
• Fit the child into the seat according
to the child restraint manufacturer’s
directions.
WARNING!
When your child restraint system is
not in use, secure it in the vehicle with
the seat belt or remove it from the
vehicle. Do not leave it loose in the
vehicle. In a sudden stop or accident, it could strike the occupants or
seatbacks and cause serious personal
injury.
Installing Child Restraint
Systems using the Vehicle Seat
Belt equipped with ALR Child restraint systems are designed to
be secured in vehicle seats by lap belts
or the lap belt portion of a
lap/shoulder belt.
All the passenger seat belts are
equipped with an Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR) to secure child
protection through a Child Restraint
System (CRS). These types of seat belts
are designed to keep the lap portion
of the seat belt tight around the child
restraint seat avoiding to use a locking
clip.
The ALR will make a ratcheting noise if
the entire belt is pulled out of the
retractor in order to enable the belt to
retract subsequently. For additional
information on ALR, see “Using Seat
Belt in Automatic Locking Retractor
(ALR) Mode” in “Occupants Restraint
Systems” in this section.
To install a Child Restraint System with
ALR, pull enough of the belt out of the
retractor leading it through the belt
path of the protection device. Slide the latch into the buckle until it clicks,
then remove the entire safety belt
from the retractor in order to
rewound. While rewinding a click will
indicate the safety belt is now in
Automatic Locking mode.
Exert then a traction on the exceeded
lap section of the belt in order to
tighten it around the child restraint
seat. All seat belts will loosen over
time, it is therefore necessary to check
them periodically and set them
properly.
Lower Anchors and Tether for
Children (LATCH) Your vehicle's rear outboard seats are
all equipped with the child restraint
anchorage system called LATCH.
The LATCH system allows the child
restraint systems to be fixed without
using the vehicle's seat belts, instead
fixing the child restraint system to the
vehicle structure, using lower
anchorages A and upper tether strap

vehicle's tow hook socket, while the
front sensors stay active and can
provide acoustic and visual warnings.
The rear sensors are automatically
reactivated when the trailer's cable
plug is removed.
Rear Parking Camera Your vehicle is equipped with a rear
parking camera that allows you to see
an image on the MTC+ screen of the
rear surroundings of your vehicle
whenever the shift lever is put into R
(Reverse).
When “Parkview Camera Off Delay”
mode is enabled, the rear view image
shall be displayed for up to 10 seconds
after shifting out of R (Reverse).
When “Rearwiew Camera Delay”
mode is enabled, the rear view image
shall be displayed for up to 10 seconds
after shifting out of R (Reverse).
To assist the driver during maneuvers
on dead-ends/roads and on
intersections, the vehicle may be
equipped with an optional surround
view camera system. In this case, the
rear parking camera is integrated into
the surround view camera system. In
both configurations (rear parking
camera only or surround view camera
system), you can monitor the rear
view. For more details on this option,
see chapter "Surround View Camera
System (optional)" in this section.
The image will be displayed along
with a caution note to “Check Entire
Surroundings” across the top of the screen. After five seconds this note
will disappear.
The rear parking camera is located on
the rear of the vehicle above the rear
license plate.
When the shift lever is shifted out of R
(Reverse), the rear camera mode is
exited and the navigation or audio
screen appears again.
When displayed, dynamic grid lines (if
the function is set to “MTC+ Settings”)
will illustrate the width of the vehicle
to assist with parking or aligning to a
hitch/receiver. The dynamic grid lines
will show separate zones in different
color that will help indicate the
distance to the rear of the vehicle.Before Starting
