Automatic Headlights This system automatically turns the
headlights on or off according to
ambient light intensity detected by the
twilight sensor positioned on the inner
surface of the windshield, over the
rear view mirror. To turn the system
on, rotate the lights switch clockwise
to “AUTO” position.
When the automatic system is
activated, the headlight time delay
feature is activated as well. This means
the headlights will stay on for up to 90
seconds after you place the ignition
device into OFF position.
To turn the automatic system off,
move the lights switch out of “AUTO”
position.
NOTE:
The engine must be running before
the headlights turn on in automatic
mode.
WARNING!
The responsibility for turning on the
lights, depending on the daylight and
regulations in force in the country of
use, always lies with the driver. The
automatic system for switching on
and off the external lights is to be considered as an aid for the driver. If
necessary, switch the lights including
the rear fog lights on and off
manually.
Headlights On with Wipers
When
this feature
is active, the
headlights will turn on approximately
10 seconds after activation of the
wipers, if the lights switch is placed in
the “AUTO” position. The headlights
will additionally turn off by
deactivation of the wipers if previously
activated with this function.
NOTE:
The Headlights with wipers feature
may be turned on and off using the
MTC+ System, refer to “MTC+
Settings” in section “Dashboard
Instruments and Controls”.
Headlights Time Delay This safety feature provides headlight
illumination for up to 90 seconds
(programmable) when leaving your
vehicle in an unlit area. To activate the
delay feature, place the ignition switch
in the OFF or ACC position while the
headlights are still on. Then turn off
the headlights within 45 seconds. The delay interval begins when the
lights switch is turned off (position
“0”). If you turn the headlights or
position lights on, or place the ignition
switch in RUN , the system will cancel
the delay.
If you turn the headlights off (“0”
position) before the ignition, they will
turn off in the normal mode.
NOTE:
• To activate this feature the lights
must be turned off (“0” position)
within 45 seconds of placing the
ignition switch in the OFF or ACC
position.
• Once the delay feature is active, any
additional shifting of the light switch
will cancel the feature.
• The headlight delay time is
programmable using the MTC+
System, see “MTC+ Settings” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”.
• If the low beam LEDs are active due
to “Headlights with Wipers”, then
the headlamps delay feature will not
be activated when the ignition
switch is set in OFF position.Understanding the Vehicle

Daytime Running Lights (DRL) The lighting system uses the same
high or low intensity headlamps LED,
respectively, for the DRL lights and
front position lights.
DRL lights will turn on when the
twilight sensor is in “DAY” mode, the
engine is running and the light switch
is in
or “AUTO” position.
If a turn signal is activated, the DRL
LED on the same side of the vehicle
switches in position light function for
the duration of the turn signal
activation. Once the turn signal is
deactivated, the DRL LED will light up
again.
NOTE:
On Canadian vehicles DRL are always
on. On USA vehicles, the DRL lights
can be turned on and off using the
MTC+ System, see “MTC+ Settings” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls” for further information.
“Full-LED” Headlight with
Cornering Function These headlamps combine the
cornering function to the “Full-LED”
technology consisting of an additional
LED module which turns on when two
conditions occurs: the driver turns the steering wheel or the driver activates
the turn indicator. The cornering
function will illuminate the corner to
enhance the visibility to the driver as
long as speed will be lower than 25
mph (40 km/h).
“Full-LED” Technology
This technology creates headlights
with a simpler construction and a
more compact size compared to those
equipped with traditional or Xenon
light bulbs.
Other advantages are:
• a clearer light beam, with a cool
white tone that allows a better
perception of the contrasts thus
making the night vision more
efficient and less tiring;
• a longer duration equivalent at least
to that of the vehicle;
• a reduced current consumption. These features positively affect some
vehicle management economy aspects
by eliminating/reducing the light bulb
replacements and help limit fuel
consumption.
Automatic High Beam (for
versions/markets, where
provided) The Automatic High Beam headlight
control system provides increased
forward lighting at night by
automating high beam control
through the use of the forward-facing
digital camera located behind the
rear-view mirror, which is the same
one used for example by the Lane
Keeping Assist - LKA system on
vehicles with ADAS systems.
This camera detects the environmental
luminosity, the headlamps of
oncoming vehicles and the tail lamps
of proceding vehicles in the front
area. In these cases, the system
automatically switches from high
beams to low beams until the
approaching vehicle is out of view.
Furthermore, the digital camera is
able to detect the urban areas and the
inhabited centers and to turn off the
high beams when driving near of one
of them.Understanding the Vehicle

119

The properly working for this feature
(if all the other conditions are met) is
ensured between 21.7 mph (35 km/h)
and 155 mph (250 km/h).
Activation Mode
To activate Automatic High Beam
feature:
• Shift the multifunction lever onward
.
• Put the light switch in “AUTO”
position.
• Touch the "Controls" soft-key in the
lower part of the MTC+ display.
• Within 15 seconds, touch the "Auto
High Beam Assist" soft-key to turn
on the feature. • Within 15 seconds, touch the "Auto
High Beam Assist" soft-key a second
time to turn it off.
After these steps, the green indicator
on the upper right side of the TFT
display comes on. NOTE:
• The function is enabled only if the
brightness sensor detects the right
lighting conditions and then switch
to low beam on.
• Broken, muddy, or obstructed
headlights and taillights of vehicles
in the field of view will cause
headlights to remain on longer
(closer to the vehicle). Also, dirt, film,
and other obstructions on the
windshield or camera lens will cause
the system to function improperly.
Automatic High Beam Failure
In the event of a failure of the high
beam system, the related amber
warning light will illuminate on the
TFT display.
Take your vehicle to the nearest
Authorized Maserati Dealer as soon as
possible avoiding to use this system.

recommend therefore that you switch
them off when they are no longer
necessary and every time the twilight
sensor deactivates the external lights.
Automatic High Beams
The
Automatic High Beam headlight
control system provides increased
forward lighting at night by
automating high beam control
through the use of the forward digital
camera mounted behind the rearview
mirror, which is the same one used
also by the Lane Departure Warning
(LDW) system. This camera detects
vehicle specific light and automatically
switches from high beams to low
beams until the approaching vehicle is
out of view. Furthermore, the digital
camera is able to detect the urban
areas and the inhabited centers and to
turn off the high beams when driving
near of one of them.
The high beam can be turned back on
if there are all the necessary
conditions and if the vehicle speed
exceed 21.7 mph (35 km/h).
The “Auto High Beam Assist” feature
can be turned on or off using the
MTC+ System. Refer to “MTC+
Settings” in section "Dashboard
Instruments and Controls" for further
information. The function is enabled only if the
brightness sensor detects the right
lighting conditions.
To activate this function:
• Shift the multifunction lever onward
.
• Put the headlight switch in “AUTO”
position.
• Enable the “Auto High Beam Assist”
function on MTC+.
After these steps, the green indicator
on the upper right side of the TFT
display comes on. NOTE:
Broken, muddy, or obstructed
headlights and taillights of vehicles in
the field of view will cause headlights
to remain on longer (closer to the
vehicle). Also, dirt, film, and other
obstructions on the windshield or
camera lens will cause the system to
function improperly.
If the windshield or Automatic High
Beam headlight control mirror is
replaced, the mirror must be re-aimed
to ensure proper performance. See
your local Authorized Maserati Dealer .
Interior Lights The interior and exterior approach
lights turn on and off when
entering/exiting the vehicle (see
“Illuminated Entry/Exit” in section
"Before Starting" for further
information).
The brightness of the lights can be
manually adjusted with the regulator
positioned beside the light switch.
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 of a door. The

Windshield Wipers and
Washers The multifunction lever operates the
wipers and washers acting on the
windshield when the ignition switch is
placed in RUN or ACC position. The
multifunction lever is located on the
left side of the steering column.
A low fluid level of windshield
washers is indicated by the indicator
light
and by the message on the
instrument cluster.
To refill the fluid, see “Maintenance
Procedures” in section “Maintenance
and Care”.
Windshield Wipers • Rotate the end of the multifunction
lever to one of the four settings to
activate the automatic intermittent setting (see “Rain Sensing Wipers”
paragraph in this chapter).
• For low speed wiper operation
(stable position "LO"): rotate the
end of the multifunction control
lever forward to the first trigger
after the intermittent setting.
• Rotate to the second trigger after
the intermittent setting for
high-speed (stable position HI) wiper
operation.
• Rotate the end of the lever
downward to the “MIST” position to
activate a single wipe cycle.
• The wipers will continue to operate
until you release the multifunction
lever.
• To turn the wipers off rotate the
lever to “OFF”. CAUTION!
• Turn the windshield wipers off when
driving through an automatic car
wash. The windshield wipers may be
damaged if the wiper control is left
in any position other than “OFF”.
• In cold weather, always turn off the
wiper switch and allow the wipers to
return to the park position before
turning off the engine. If the wiper
switch is left on and the wipers
freeze to the windshield, the wiper
motor may be damaged when the
vehicle is restarted.
• Always remove any buildup of snow
that prevents the windshield wiper
blades from returning to the off
position. If the windshield wiper
control is turned off and the blades
cannot return to the off position, the
wiper motor may be damaged.
Rain Sensing Wipers This feature detects moisture on the
windshield through an internal
rearview mirror integrated sensor,
which automatically activates the
relative wipers.
Rotate forward the end of the
multifunction lever to one of fourUnderstanding the Vehicle

settings to adjust the detection system.
First wiper delay position is the least
sensitive, and fourth wiper delay
position is the most sensitive. Third
position should be used for normal
rain conditions.
The rain sense wipers will
automatically change between an
intermittent wipe, slow wipe and a
fast wipe depending on the amount of
detected moisture sensed by a
particular area of the windshield.
Place the wiper switch in the “OFF”
position when you do not want to use
the automatic intermittent system.
The rain sensing feature can be turned
on and off using the MTC+ System, see
“MTC+ Settings” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and Controls”
for further information.
CAUTION!
• The rain sensing feature may not
function properly by ice or dried salt
water on the windshield.
• Use on the windshield of RainX ®
or
products containing wax or silicone
may reduce rain sensor performance.
The rain sensing system has protective
features for the
wiper blades and arms. It will not operate under the
following conditions:
• Low Temperature Wipe Inhibit : the
rain sensing feature will not operate
when the ignition is in RUN position,
the vehicle is stationary and the
outside temperature is below 32°F
(0°C). To resume, set the automatic
feature on the multifunction lever,
start the engine and drive or wait
until the outside temperature rises
above freezing.
• Wipe Inhibit with Transmission in
Neutral Position : the rain sensing
feature will not operate when the
ignition is placed in the RUN
position, the transmission shift lever
is in the N (Neutral) position and the
vehicle speed is less than 5 mph
(8 km/h). To resume, set the
multifunction lever to the automatic
function or move the shift lever out
of N (Neutral).
Headlights On with Windshield
Wipers When activating this function, the
headlights will light up approximately
10 seconds after the wipers acting on
the windshield are turned on if the
light switch is placed in “AUTO”
position. In addition, the headlights switch off when the wipers are turned
off (position “OFF”) if they were
previously turned by using this
function. Powering on Headlights with
wipers can be activated and
deactivated with the MTC+ System, see
“MTC+ Settings” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and Controls”
for further information.
Wiper Blade Maintenance When the wiper arms acting on the
windshield are in the rest position it is
not possible to check or replace the
blades (Service position) as they are
folded under the hood. To service the
blades (see paragraph “Wiper
Maintenance and Blades
Replacement” in chapter
“Maintenance Procedures” of section
“Maintenance and Care”) it is
necessary to shift the multifunction
lever to “OFF” and the ignition switch
to OFF position.
Shift the control lever within 15
seconds to the “MIST” position
(forward rotation of the end of the
multifunction control lever) and
release. The blades are brought in a
position enabling to open the wiper
arms and change the blades.Understanding the Vehicle
3
128

It is possible to use the “MIST”
position for a maximum of 3 times
within two minutes, corresponding to
different three blades positions on the
windshield. When completed, bring
the ignition switch in RUN : the arms
will reposition. If necessary move the
multifunction lever to other required
operating positions.
WARNING!
Operate or service the windshield
wiper blades without deactivating the
wipers (“OFF” position), leaving the
ignition switch in RUN can be
dangerous for the operator since the
rain sensor may suddenly activate the
wipers. Always use “Service” position
for any intervention on the
windshield wiper blades. Windshield Washers To use the washer on the windshield,
push the end of the multifunction
lever inward (toward the steering
column) and hold it as long as washer
spray is desired.
If you activate the washer while the
windshield wiper control is in the
automatic intermittent range, the
wipers will operate for two wipe
cycles after releasing the lever and
then resume the previously selected
intermittent interval.
If you activate the washer while the
windshield wiper is turned off (“OFF”
position) the wipers will operate for
three wipe cycles and then turn off.
WARNING!
• Do not start the windshield washer during the cold months until the
windshield has warmed up. If it has
not warmed up, the liquid could
freeze on the glass and block your
view.
• Sudden loss of visibility through the
windshield could lead to a collision.
You might not see other vehicles or
other obstacles. To avoid sudden
icing of the windshield during
freezing weather, warm the
windshield with the defroster
before and during windshield
washer use.
