Keys The vehicle is equipped with a Remote
Keyless Entry transmitter and a Keyless
Ignition Node, to enter, start and
protect the vehicle.
Keyless Ignition Device This device allows the driver to
operate the ignition switch with the
push of a button, as long as the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter
is inside the vehicle.
The Keyless Ignition Node (KIN) has
three operating setups indicated on
the outer ring. Pressing and releasing
the middle button, you can switch
from one setup to the next without
starting the engine, the switched on
indication will turn amber.
The engine will start by pushing the
center button START/STOP with the
brake pedal pressed and the device set
in any of the three operating setups. In case the ignition switch does not
change by pushing a button, the RKE
transmitter (key fob) may have a low
or discharged battery. If this occurs it is
necessary to replace the battery in
order to operate the ignition switch
(see “Requiring and Setting Additional
Key fobs” in this section).
It is still possible to operate the
ignition device using the key fob RKE
transmitter with discharged battery by
pressing the nose side (side opposite of
the emergency key) of the key fob on
the START/STOP button.Before Starting

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
(Continued)Before Starting

(Continued)
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

The panic alarm will remain activated
for three minutes unless you turn it off
by either:
• pressing the
button a second
time;
• or drive the vehicle at a speed of
5 mph (8 km/h) or faster.
In both situations the panic alarm will
immediately turn off. Tamper Alert If something has triggered the vehicle
security alarm in your absence, the
horn will sound three times when you
disarm the vehicle security alarm.
Check the vehicle for tampering.Illuminated Entry/Exit Lights will turn on and off when you
enter/exit the vehicle and operate the
buttons on the key fob RKE
transmitter and/or on the “Passive

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.
Exhaust gas contains Carbon
Monoxide (CO) which is odorless
and colorless
• Keep key fobs RKE transmitter away
from children. Operation of the
Remote Start System, windows,
door locks or other controls could
cause serious injury or death.
