Remote Start System On the vehicles that are equipped
with this system, the key fob RKE
transmitter enables to start the engine
conveniently from outside the vehicle
while still maintaining security. The
system has a range of approximately
300 ft (91 m). Obstructions between
the vehicle and the key fob may
reduce this range.
NOTE:
Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void
the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
If your RKE transmitter fails to operate
from a normal distance, check for
these conditions:
• A weak battery in the RKE
transmitter. The expected life of the
battery is a minimum of three years.
• Closeness to a radio transmitter such
as a radio station tower, airport
transmitter, and some mobile or CB
radio.
• Obstructions between the vehicle
and the Key Fob. How to use Remote Start All of the following conditions must
be met before the engine will remote
start:
• System not disabled from previous
remote start event.
• Vehicle theft alarm not active.
• Vehicle Panic mode not active.
• Doors closed.
• Hood closed.
• Power liftgate closed.
• Hazard lights switched off.
• Brake pedal not pressed.
• Battery at an acceptable charge
level.
• The shift lever is in P (Park) position.
• The vehicle transmission is in
automatic mode.
• The remote start has not been
activated yet two consecutive times.
If EPB (Electric Parking Brake) is not
selected, at key-off in some conditions
the remote start system may not allow
engine to start. We suggest to set
“Auto Apply On” function through
the switch on the right-side of the
steering wheel (refer to “Instrument
Cluster” in section “Dashboard
Instrument and Controls”). WARNING!
• Do not start or run an engine in a
closed garage or confined area.

power liftgate is opening, the motor
of the liftgate is disabled to allow
manual operation.
• If the power liftgate finds several
obstacles during the same operating
cycle, it will stop automatically and
must be opened or closed manually.
• If the power liftgate is closing and a
gear is engaged, the liftgate will
continue closing. In this condition, it
is possible that, during the closing
stroke, it may find an obstacle and
stop.
WARNING!
If, for any reason, the power liftgate
must remain open while driving, close
all the windows and activate the
blower of the air conditioning control at the maximum speed. Do not
activate recirculation.
Set the Position of Maximum Power
Liftgate
Opening
The maximum opening
position of the
liftgate can be modified using the
previously described buttons on the
outer left edge of the trunk
compartment.
1. Activate the liftgate and stop it in
the new maximum opening
position to be set, by pressing the
upper
button.
2. Press the upper
or lower
buttons and keep it pressed for 3
seconds.
3. Release the button (pressed in the
previous point). Upon the following
opening controls, the liftgate will
stop in the stored position.
If you want to reset the maximum
possible opening position of the

1. Manually push the liftgate to the
maximum possible opening
position.
2. Repeat the previously performed
steps 2 and 3. Power Liftgate Automatic Safe
Movement
Power liftgate safe opening and
closing is ensured by a protection
system able to stop its movement
when an obstacle is detected along
the path: when opening or closing, it
stops automatically and then slightly
moves back.
Along the upper outer edges, the
vehicle is equipped with anti-pinch
protection sensors. These sensors stop
the automatic closing stroke and
partly open the power liftgate when a
pressure is carried out, also slight,
within their range shown in the
figure.
After the closing command, when
power liftgate starts closing, all the
indicators will blink to warn anyone
within range.Before Starting

deactivation of the passenger or
driver air bag.
• If you or another occupant is an
adult with a medical condition that
requires air bag deactivation, please
contact an Authorized Maserati
Dealer. For further information on
disabled driver or passengers see
http://www.safercar.gov.
• Persons with disabilities are advised
not to travel in the front seat in
order to avoid the risk of serious
injuries or death, even in minor
crashes.
Event Data Recorder (EDR) This vehicle is equipped with an event
data recorder (EDR). The main purpose
of an EDR is to record, in certain crash
or near crash-like situations, such as an
air bag deployment or hitting a road
obstacle, data that will assist in
understanding how a vehicle’s systems
have performed.
The EDR is designed to record data
related to vehicle dynamics and safety
systems for a short period of time,
typically 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to
record such data as: • how various systems in your vehicle
were operating;
• whether or not the driver and
passenger safety belts were
buckled/fastened;
• how far (if at all) the driver was
depressing the accelerator and/or
brake pedal; and
• how fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better
understanding of the circumstances in
which crashes and injuries occur.
NOTE:
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle
if a crash situation occurs; no data are
recorded by the EDR under normal
driving conditions and no personal
data (e.g., name, gender, age, and
crash location) are recorded. However,
other parties, such as law
enforcement, could combine the EDR
data with the type of personally
identifying data routinely acquired
during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR,
special equipment is required, and
access to the vehicle or the EDR is
needed.
In addition to the vehicle
manufacturer, other parties, such as
law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the
information if they have access to
vehicle or the EDR.

WARNING!
Certain components of this vehicle
such as air bag modules, seat belt
pretensioners, adaptive steering
columns, and button cell batteries
may contain Perchlorate material.
Special handling may apply for service
or vehicle end of life disposal. See

Defroster
Check
operation by selecting
the
defrost mode and place the fan system
on high speed (see “Air Conditioning
Controls” chapter in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
You should be able to feel the air
directed against the windshield and
front side windows. Contact an
Authorized Maserati Dealer for service
if your defroster is inoperable.
Floor Mat
Always use floor mats designed to fit
the footwell of your vehicle. Use only
floor mats that leave the pedal area
unobstructed and that are firmly secured so that they cannot slip out of
position and interfere with the pedals
or impair safe operation of your
vehicle.
NOTE:
The Authorized Maserati Dealer can
provide you with any information
about the available Maserati floor
mats included in the “Genuine
Accessories” range.
WARNING!
Pedals that cannot move freely can
cause loss of vehicle control and
increase the risk of serious personal
injury.
• Always make sure that floor mats
are properly attached to the proper
fasteners.
• Never place or install floor mats or
other floor coverings in the vehicle
that cannot be properly secured to
prevent them from moving and
interfering with the pedals.
• Never put floor mats or other floor
coverings on top of already installed
floor mats. Additional floor mats
and other coverings will reduce the size of the pedal area and interfere
with the pedals.
• Check mounting of mats on a
regular basis. Always properly
reinstall and secure floor mats that
have been removed for cleaning.
• Always make sure that objects
cannot fall into the driver footwell
while the vehicle is moving. Objects
can become trapped under the
brake pedal and accelerator pedal
causing a loss of vehicle control.
• Mounting posts must be properly
installed, if not equipped from the
factory. Failure to properly follow
floor mat installation or mounting
can cause interference with the
brake pedal and accelerator pedal
operation causing loss of control of
the vehicle.
Tires
•
Examine tires for excessive tread
wear and uneven wear patterns.
• Check for stones, nails, glass, or
other objects lodged in the tread or
sidewall.
• Inspect the tread for cuts and cracks.
• Inspect sidewalls for cuts, cracks and
bulges.
• Check the wheel nuts for tightness.Before Starting
