Key fob This vehicle is provided with two
programmed key fobs.
The key fob contains a Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter and an
emergency key.
The emergency key allows you to
open the vehicle by inserting into the
lock of the opening handle on the
driver's door, in case the battery of the
vehicle or the key fob go dead. You can keep the emergency key with
you when using valet parking.
To remove the emergency key:
• hold the mechanical latch on the
back of the key fob sideways;
• simultaneously remove the
emergency key by sliding laterally
towards the end of the key fob.
NOTE:
You can insert either side of the
emergency key into the lock cylinder.
Shift Ignition Device to OFF
Alert Opening the driver's door to exit the
vehicle when the ignition device is set
in ACC or RUN (engine not running), a
beep will remind you to cycle the
ignition to OFF . In addition to the acoustic signal a
dedicated message is displayed on the
instrument cluster.
If the ignition device is left in the ACC
or RUN position, when vehicle is
locked the system will turn off the
instrument cluster and automatically
set ignition device to OFF .
With the MTC+ System, the power
window switches, radio, power
sunroof (optional), and power outlets
will remain active for up to 10 minutes
after the ignition switch is cycled to
the OFF position. Opening either front
door will cancel this feature, it is
possible to set the timing of this
feature.
NOTE:
Refer to “MTC+ Settings” in Section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls” for further information.
WARNING!
• When leaving the vehicle, always
remove the key fob and lock your
vehicle.
• Do not allow children to be in a
vehicle unattended or with access to
an unlocked vehicle. A child or

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

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.

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!

Child-Protection Door Lock
System — Rear Doors To provide a safer environment for
small children sitting in the rear seats,
the rear doors are equipped with a
child-protection door lock system.
Engage or Disengage the
Child-Protection Door Lock
• Open the rear door.
• Insert the tip of the emergency key
into the lock and rotate to the lock
or unlock position.
• Repeat the first two steps on the
opposite rear door.
WARNING!
Avoid trapping anyone in a vehicle in
a collision. Remember that the rear
doors can only be opened from the outside when the child-protection
locks are engaged (locked).
NOTE:
For
emergency exit from the rear seats
when the child-protection door lock
system is engaged, manually raise the
door lock knob to the unlocked
position, roll down the window, and
open the door using the outside door
handle.
Soft Door Close System (if
equipped) This system makes doors easier to shut
without having to slam if you do not
get it closed the first time. It increases
the vehicle's safety and comfort, in
particular for children in the back seat,
it is not necessary to slam the door
and it also prevents the risk of
traveling with the door ajar.
The system uses a sensor to detect the
door ajar and an electric actuator to
close it. The sensor detects your
attempt to close the door and once
the latch catches the handle the
electric actuator pulls the door firmly
bringing the door to the fully closed
position.
During the soft closing phase
operated by the system, it is possible to intervene manually by opening or
closing the door.
If you are pushing the door hard
enough to close just like a regular
one, the system still works, but only to
check whether the door is properly
closed.
WARNING!
The system works properly if the ajar
door has a gap , between exterior
door panel surface and exterior
bodyshell surface in the latch area , of
max 0.23 in (6 mm). In the presence of
higher gap, the system is not able to
close the door with the risk of
travelling with the door not
completely closed.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.
Auto-Down Feature The driver door power window switch
and some model passenger door
power window switches have an
auto-down feature.
Press the window switch to the second
detent, release, and the window will
go completely down automatically.

Occupants Restraint
Systems The listed occupants restraint systems
are some of the most important safety
features in your vehicle:
• Three-point seat belts (also called lap
and shoulder belts) for the driver
and all passengers.
• Advanced front air bags for driver
and passenger.
• Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable
Curtains (SABIC) for the driver and
passengers seated next to a window.
• Supplemental seat-mounted side air
bags.
• An energy-absorbing steering
column and steering wheel.
• Front seat belts incorporate dual
pretensioners that may enhance
occupant protection by managing
the energy created during an
impact.
• All seat belt systems (except the
driver’s) include Automatic Locking
Retractors (ALR), which lock the seat
belt webbing into position by
extending the belt all the way out
and then adjusting the belt to the
desired length to restrain a child seat
or secure a large item in a seat. Please pay close attention to the
information in this section. It tells you
how to use your restraint system
properly, to keep you and your
passengers as safe as possible.
If you are carrying children too small
for adult-sized seat belts, the seat
belts or the Lower Anchors and Tether
for CHildren (LATCH) feature also can
be used to hold infant and child
restraint systems. For more
information on LATCH, refer to
“Lower Anchors and Tether for
CHildren (LATCH)” in this section.
WARNING!
To help provide maximum protection,
you are advised to keep the seatback
in the most upright position possible
and the seat belt close to your chest
and pelvis. If the seat belt is loose, in
the event of an accident you could
move too far forward and could be
injured. Travelling with the seatback
too far reclined could also be
dangerous: even if the seat belts are
fastened, they may not work
correctly. In fact, the belt itself may
not be close enough to your body
and, if it is in front of you, it could
cause neck wounds or other injuries in
an accident. Additionally, in an accident, the lower section of the belt
could press against the upper part of
your stomach rather than the pelvic
area, causing serious internal injuries.
NOTE:
The
advanced air bags
have a multi
stage inflator. This allows the air bag
to have different stages of inflation
based on the severity and type of
collision.
Here are some simple steps you can
take to minimize the risk of harm
from a deploying air bag:
• Children 12 years old and under
should always ride buckled up in a
rear seat.
WARNING!
Infants in rear facing child restraints
should never ride in the front seat of
a vehicle with a passenger Advanced
Front Air Bag. An air bag deployment
can cause severe or fatal injury to
infants in that position.
Do not use child seats or child booster
cushions/backrests in the front
passenger seat. Occupants in the front
passenger seat must never sit on the

Everyone in a motor vehicle should be
belted at all times.
Three-Point Seat Belts All seating positions in your vehicle
are equipped with combination lap
and shoulder belts.
The belt retractor is designed to lock
during very sudden stops or impacts.
This feature allows the shoulder part
of the belt to move freely with you
under normal conditions, conforming
to the body of the occupants.
However, in an accident, the belt will
lock and reduce your risk of striking
the inside of the vehicle or being
thrown out.
The driver is responsible for
respecting, and ensuring that all the
other occupants of the car also
observe the local regulations
concerning the use of seat belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before
starting the vehicle.
Seat belts are designed to be used by
persons whose physical characteristics
(age, height, weight) are provided for
by established legislation in each
country. Anyone who does comply
with these provisions may not travel in
the front passenger seat. This also
applies to children. Their heads are
proportionally heavier and larger than those of adults, while their bones and
muscles are relatively undeveloped. To
help protect them in case of a
collision, they must use special
restraint or safety systems, even in the
rear seat area.
WARNING!
• It is forbidden and dangerous to ride
in a cargo area. In an accident,
people riding in these areas are
more likely to be seriously injured or
killed.
• Do not allow any person to ride in
any area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat belts.
• Be sure all passengers are in a seat
and using a seat belt properly.
• Wearing your belt improperly could
make your injuries in an accident
much worse. You might suffer
internal injuries, or you could even
slide out of part of the belt. Follow
these instructions to wear your seat
belt properly and to keep your
passengers safe, too.
• Two people should never be belted
into a single seat belt. People belted
together can crash into one another
in an accident, hurting one another severely. Never use a lap/shoulder
belt for more than one person.
• Remember that, in the event of an
accident, the rear seat passengers
not wearing the seat belts are not
only subject to personal injuries but
also represent a serious danger for
the front seat occupants.
Three-Point Seat Belts Use Instructions
•
Enter the vehicle
and close the door.
Sit back and adjust the seat.
• The seat belt latch plate is on the
rear door pillar, above the seat on
the external side.
• Hold the latch plate and pull the belt
across you, make the belt go around
your body and when the belt is long
enough to fit, insert the latch plate
into the buckle until you hear a
“click.”Before Starting
