Vehicle Security Alarm The vehicle security alarm monitors
the vehicle doors and liftgate for
unauthorized entry and the
START/STOP button for unauthorized
operations.
The system includes a dual function
anti-intrusion sensor and vehicle
anti-lift sensor. The anti-intrusion
sensor monitors the vehicle interior
for motion.
The vehicle anti-lift sensor monitors
the vehicle for any lifting or tilting
actions (tow away, tire removal, ferry
transport, etc). A siren with battery
backup which senses interruptions of
power and communications is also
included.
While the vehicle security alarm is
enabled, interior door locks switches,
power liftgate and fuel filler door
release are disabled. If something
triggers the alarm, the vehicle security
alarm will provide the following
audible and visible signals:
intermittent buzzer, position lights
and/or turn signals and the vehicle
security light on the dashboard will
flash.
This light will fast flash for
approximately 15 seconds, when the
vehicle security alarm is being armed,Before Starting

The buttons - located on the outer
edge of the left trunk compartment
lining and indicated in the figure - can
be used to completely close and lock
the power liftgate and arm the alarm
system if all the doors are closed.
See chapter “ Power Liftgate
Operation” in this section for further
information.
Each time the vehicle security alarm is
armed, the anti-intrusion and anti-lift
sensors actively monitor the vehicle.
When arming the security alarm, it is
possible to disable these sensors by
pressing the
button on the key fob
three times within 5 seconds from the
moment the system has been armed
(meanwhile the security alarm light
flashes rapidly). To disarm the System Use any of the following steps to
disarm the vehicle security alarm.
• Press the button on key fob RKE

can create conditions where the
system will give you a false alarm. If
one of the previously described
arming sequences has occurred, the
vehicle security alarm will arm
regardless of whether you are in the
vehicle or not. If you remain in the
vehicle and open a door, the alarm
will activate. If this occurs, disarm the
vehicle security alarm.
If the vehicle security alarm is armed
and the battery becomes
disconnected, the vehicle security
alarm will remain armed when the
battery is reconnected; the exterior
lights will flash, the buzzer will
activate. If this occurs, disarm the

inflates. This especially applies to
children.
Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable
Curtain (SABIC) Inflator Units
During collisions where the impact is
confined to a particular area of the
side of the vehicle, the ORC may
deploy the SABIC air bags, depending
on the severity and type of collision. In
these events, the ORC will deploy the
SABIC only on the impact side of the
vehicle. A quantity of non-toxic gas is
generated to inflate the side curtain
air bag.
The inflating side curtain air bag
pushes the head/s of the occupant/s
seating in the outside seats from the
edge of the headliner out of the way
and covers the window. The air bag
inflates with enough force to possibly
injure you if you are not belted and
seated properly, or if items are
positioned in the area where the side
curtain air bag inflates. This especially
applies to children.
The SABICs may also help reduce the
risk of partial or complete ejection of
vehicle occupants through side
windows in certain rollover events
(because equipped with rollover
sensing). Front and Side Impact Sensors
In front and side impacts, impact
sensors can aid the ORC in
determining appropriate response to
impact events.
Enhanced Accident Response System
In the event of an impact causing air
bag deployment, if the
communication network and the
power remains intact, depending on
the nature of the accident, the ORC
will determine whether the enhanced
accident response system will have to
perform the following functions:
• cut off fuel to the engine;
• turn hazard lights and interior lights
on as long as the battery has power
or until the ignition switch is turned
off;
• unlock the doors automatically;
• disconnect the battery with a
pyrotechnic charge.
Air Bag Deployment Result
The advanced front air bags are
designed to deflate immediately after
deployment.
If you do have a collision which
deploys the air bags, any or all of the
following may occur: • The nylon air bag material may
sometimes cause abrasions and/or
skin reddening to the driver and
front passenger as the air bags
deploy and unfold.
• As the air bags deflate, you may see
some smoke-like particles. The
particles are a normal by-product of
the process that generates the
non-toxic gas used for air bag
inflation. These airborne particles
may irritate the skin, eyes, nose, or
throat. If these particles settle on
your clothing, follow the garment
manufacturer's instructions for
cleaning. Do not drive your vehicle
after an air bag has deployed. If you
are involved in another collision, the
air bags will not be in place to
protect you.
ENVIRONMENTAL!
Air bag inflation releases a small
amount of powder. This powder is not
harmful to the environment.

on manually by pushing the
multifunction lever forward.
WARNING!
If the high beams are activated, they
will turn on automatically every time
the low beams are switched on either
manually or automatically. We
recommend therefore that you switch
them off when they are no longer
necessary and every time the twilight
sensor deactivates the external lights.
Interior Lights The interior and external approach
lights turn on and off when
entering/exiting the vehicle (see
“Illuminated Entry/Exit” in section
“Before Starting” for further
information).
To protect the battery, the interior
lights will turn off automatically 10
minutes after the ignition switch has
been shifted to OFF . This occurs if the
interior lights were turned on
manually or by opening a door. The
glove box light, on the dashboard, shares the same characteristics
excepting the trunk and liftgate lights.
The brightness of the interior lights
(ambient lighting and backlighting of
controls and instruments) can be
adjusted by means of the buttons on
steering wheel right-hand side, enter

infotainment Maserati Touch Control
Plus (MTC+) System, an advanced user
interface which combines innovative
and exclusive technical features
integrating entertainment, user
settings, air conditioning, navigation,
communication and information
features within a single system.
The MTC+ System features an audio
system which is acoustically optimized
for this specific vehicle.
WARNING!
The navigation system assists the
driver while driving, providing advice
and suggestions, by voice guidance
and graphic information, for the best
route to reach the set destination. The suggestions provided by the
navigation system do not relieve the
driver from full responsibility for the
maneuvers made through traffic while
driving, or from compliance with road
regulations and other provisions
regarding road traffic. The person
driving the vehicle is always and in
any case responsible for safe driving
on the road.
The vehicle is provided with a specific
add
to the owner’
s manual, describing
the MTC+ System features and listing
all warnings and precautions, which
are essential for a safe use of the
system. Maserati advises you to read
this add carefully and thoroughly.

Recirculation and Air Quality
Sensor (AQS)
When outside air contains smoke,
odours, or high humidity, or if rapid
cooling is desired, you may wish to
recirculate interior air by pressing the
recirculation control button or the
relevant soft-key to activate the two
different functionalities.
The recirculation function, that allows
to open/close the A/C air inlet by
operating the
button on the
climate control panel or the MTC+
soft-key, is integrated with the Air
Quality Sensor.
This sensor, positioned upstream of
the A/C filter, in front of the air intake
of the A/C system, detects the
presence of polluting substances and
submits an electric signal to the A/C
control unit, that closes the intake of
the external air by activating the air
recirculation.
The
button or the MTC+ soft-key
can therefore enable three operating
modes, switchable in sequence.
Starting from the outside air condition
with LED on the button off and MTC+
soft-key not highlighted, in which the
external air is aspirated by the A/C
system and treated to be introduced
into the passenger compartment,
subsequent actuations of the button or the MTC+ soft-key
change the state as follows.
• First press: the A/C system activates
the automatic recirculation control
by using the signal transmitted from
the AQS. The symbol ‘’A’’ on the
button and the MTC+ soft-key
lights up.
• Second press: the A/C system
activates the recirculation, the LED
on the
button or the MTC+
soft-key lights up. The A/C system
will stay this way up to a new
actuation, or until the increased
humidity could lead to windshield
fogging: in this case the recirculation
automatically switches to external
air.
• Third press: the A/C system switches
back to external air (default
operating mode).
The next press of the
button or
the MTC+ soft-key restars the
operating cycle just described.
NOTE:
To avoid the risk of fogging, the AQS
is disabled when the external
temperature falls below 35°F (2°C). NOTE:
In cold weather, use of recirculation
mode may lead to window fogging.
Select the MIX mode
and increase
the blower speed to prevent fogging.

Activating this function, the system
switches to exit “AUTO”, enter “A/C”
