WARNING!
Failure to follow the precautions
below might result in serious injury or
even death.
• Drivers must be careful during
maneuvers also when using the
camera system with surround view.
• Always check carefully the areas
around your vehicle, before
proceeding forward or backward. • Be sure to always check for any
pedestrians, animals, other vehicles,
obstructions, or blind spots.
• The driver must use the utmost
caution while using the system to
avoid damage to property or
personal injury.
• The camera system with surround
view is designed for use during the
day or under good lighting
conditions. Do not use and rely on
the system under poor lighting
conditions.
• Distance lines and directional lines
must be used only as a reference and
only when vehicle is on a flat
ground. The distance shown on
MTC+ display must be interpreted as
a reference and might be different
from the distance actually present
between the vehicle and any
displayed objects.
• Any obstacles present above the
cameras cannot be detected.
CAUTION!
• To avoid vehicle damage, the camera
system with surround view should
only be used as a parking aid, as theBefore Starting
2
88

cameras are unable to view every
obstacle or object in your drive path.
• To avoid vehicle damage, the vehicle
must be driven slowly when using
the camera system with surround
view, to be able to stop in time
when an obstacle is seen. It is
recommended that the driver looks
frequently over his/her shoulder
when using this system.
NOTE:
If
snow , ice, mud, or any other
substance builds up on the camera
lens, clean the lens, rinse with water,
and dry with a soft cloth. Do not cover
the lens.
WARNING!
California Proposition 65
Operating, servicing and maintaining
a passenger vehicle or off-road vehicle
can expose you to chemicals including
such as, engine exhaust, carbon
monoxide, phthalates and lead, that
which are known to the State of
California to cause cancer and birth
defects or other reproductive harm. To
minimize exposure, avoid breathing
exhaust, do not idle the engine except as necessary, service your vehicle in a
well-ventilated area and wear gloves
or wash your hands frequently when
servicing your vehicle. For more

Safety Tips Transporting Passengers WARNING!
• Do not leave children or animals
inside parked vehicles in hot
weather. Interior heat build-up may
cause serious injury.
• Never ride in a cargo area, inside of
a vehicle.
• Do not allow people to ride in any
area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat belts.
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is
in a seat and using a seat belt
properly.Before Starting

Exhaust Gas WARNING!
Exhaust gases can injure. They contain
carbon monoxide (CO), which is
colorless and odorless. Breathing it
can make you unconscious and can
eventually poison you. To avoid
breathing (CO), follow these safety
tips:
• Do not run the engine in a closed
garage or in confined areas any
longer than needed to move your
vehicle in or out of the area.
• If it is necessary to sit in a parked
vehicle with the engine running,
adjust your heating or cooling
controls to force outside air into the
vehicle. Set the blower at high
speed.
• If you are required to drive with the
trunk open, make sure that all
windows are closed and the climate
control blowers switch is set at high
speed. DO NOT use the recirculation
mode.
The best protection against carbon
monoxide
entry into
the passenger
compartment is a properly maintained
engine exhaust system. Whenever detecting a change in the
sound of the exhaust system or
eventual exhaust fumes inside the
vehicle have the Authorized Maserati
Dealer inspect the complete exhaust
system and adjacent body areas for
broken, damaged, deteriorated, or
mispositioned parts.
Open seams or loose connections could
permit exhaust fumes to seep into the
passenger compartment.

vehicle Vehicle Safety Checks Seat Belts
• Inspect the belt system periodically,
checking for cuts, frays, and loose
parts. Damaged parts must be
replaced immediately.
• Do not disassemble or modify the
system.
• If the belt has been sharply pulled,
for example as the result of an
accident, the safety belt, together
with the anchoring devices, the
anchoring device mounting screws
and the pretensioner must be
completely replaced. Even if the belt
does not present any exterior signs
of wear or damage, it may have lost
its restraining properties.
Air Bag Warning Light
The
light should illuminate and
remain lit for a few seconds bulb
checking when the ignition switch is
pushed in RUN position (see
“Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
— Air Bags” chapter in this section).
• If the light
does not illuminate
while starting, contact the
Authorized Maserati Dealer .
• If the light stays on, flickers, or comes
on while driving, have the systemBefore Starting

checked by the Authorized Maserati
Dealer .
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
www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/
perchlorate.
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
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

• Check the tires (see “Tire Inflation
Pressure” chapter in section
“Features and Specifications”) for
proper cold inflation pressure.
Lights and Indicator Lights
• Have someone observe the operation
of exterior lights while you operate
the controls (see “Lights” chapter in
section “Understanding the
Vehicle”).
• Check turn signal and high beam
indicator lights on the instrument
cluster (see “Instrument Cluster”
chapter in section “Dashboard
Instruments and Controls”).
Door Latches
• Check for positive closing, latching,
and locking of doors and trunk lid
(see “Unlock the Vehicle with Key
fob” chapter in this section).
Fluid Leaks
• Check area under vehicle after
overnight parking for recent fluid
leaks (oil, fuel, etc.).
• If gasoline fumes are detected or
fluid leaks are suspected, contact the
Authorized Maserati Dealer . WARNING!
