should be close to, but not contacting,
the neck.
Push the indicated button above the
shoulder belt guide to release the
anchorage, then move the belt slider
up or down to the fixed position that
fits you best.
WARNING!
After the adjustment, always check
that the slider to which the oscillating
ring is fixed, is locked into one of the
positions provided. With the handgrip
released, push again downward to
allow the anchoring device to click
into place, in the event that it has not
been released in one of the positions
provided.
When you release the anchorage try
to
move the
belt slider up and down to make sure that it is locked in
position.
Three-Point Seat Belt
Untwisting Procedure Use the following procedure to
untwist a twisted three point belt.
• Position the latch plate as close as
possible to the anchor point.
• At about 0.5 to 1 ft (15 to 30 cm)
above the latch plate, grasp and
twist the belt 180 degrees to create
a fold that begins immediately
above the latch plate.
• Slide the latch plate upward over the
folded belt. The folded belt must
enter the slot at the top of the latch
plate.
• Continue to slide the latch plate up
until it clears the folded belt.
Passengers Seat Belts All passengers seat belts are equipped
with Automatic Locking Retractors
(ALR) and can be used to secure a
child restraint system. For additional
information, see “Installing Child
Restraint Systems using the Vehicle
Seat Belt equipped with ALR” under
“Child Restraint Systems” in this
section. If the passenger seat position should
not be used to accommodate a child
restraint system, only pull the belt out
far enough to comfortably wrap
around the occupant so as to not
activate the ALR. If the ALR is
activated, you will hear a ratcheting
sound as the belt retracts. In this case,
allow the belt to retract completely
and then carefully pull out only the
amount of belt necessary to
comfortably wrap around the seat
occupant.
Slide the latch plate into the buckle
until you hear a "click".
WARNING!
• Remember that, in the event of a
violent impact, the passengers in the
rear seats who are not wearing the
seat belts are not only subject to
personal injury but also represent a
danger for passengers sitting in the
front seats.
• Always fasten the seat belts.
• Traveling without the seat belts
fastened significantly increases the
risk of serious injury in the event of
a collision, even with the air bags.

that when the ignition switch is in
the OFF or ACC position or is turned
off, the air bag will not deploy in
case of collision. Therefore, in these
cases, lack of air bag deployment is
not an indication of a system
malfunction.
• Ignoring the air bag warning light
and message in your instrument
cluster could mean you won't have
the air bags to protect you in the
event of a collision. If the light does
not come on as a bulb check when
the ignition is first turned on, stays
on after you start the engine, or if it
comes on as you drive, have an
Authorized Maserati Dealer service
the air bag system immediately.
Front Air Bag Inflator Units
When
the ORC
detects a collision
requiring the advanced front air bags,
it signals the inflator units. A large
quantity of nontoxic gas is generated
to inflate the advanced front air bags.
The steering wheel hub trim cover and
the upper right side of the dashboard
separate and fold out of the way as
the air bags inflate to their full size.
The air bags then quickly deflate while
helping to restrain the driver and
front passenger. The advanced front air bag gas is vented through the vent
holes in the sides of the air bag. In this
way, the air bags do not interfere with
your control of the vehicle.
Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air
Bag (SAB) Inflator Units
The ORC unit determines if a side
collision requires the side air bags to
inflate, based on the severity and type
of collision. Based on the severity and
type of collision, the side air bag
inflator on the crash side of the
vehicle may be triggered, releasing a
quantity of nontoxic gas.
The inflating SAB exits through the
seat seam into the space between the
occupant and the door. The side air
bag moves at a very high speed and
with such a high force that it could
injure you if you are not seated
properly, or if items are positioned in
the area where the side air bag
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 ORCBefore Starting

Easy Entry/Exit Driver Seat This feature provides automatic driver
seat positioning to enhance driver
mobility when entering and exiting
the vehicle.
The distance the driver seat moves
depends on where you have the driver
seat positioned when you place the
ignition device to the OFF position.
• When you cycle the ignition to the
OFF position the driver seat:
• will move about 2.36 in (60 mm)
rearward if the driver seat position
is greater than or equal to ca. 2.67
in (68 mm) forward of the rear
stop;
• will move to a position of ca.
0.31 in (8 mm) forward of the rear
stop if the driver seat position is
between 0.9 in (23 mm) and
2.67 in (68 mm) forward of the
rear stop.
• The seat will return to its previously
set position when you place the
ignition into the ACC or RUN
position.
• The Easy Entry/Easy Exit feature is
disabled when the driver seat
position is less than 0.9 in (23 mm)
forward of the rear stop. In this
position, there would be no benefit to the driver by moving the seat for
Easy Exit or Easy Entry.
Each stored memory setting will have
an associated Easy Entry and Easy Exit
position.
NOTE:
The Easy Entry/Easy Exit feature can be
enabled or disabled using the MTC+
System, refer to “MTC Settings” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls” for further information.
Rear Seats Rear seats can fit three passengers.
Seats, head restraints and seat belts
are parts of the occupant restraint
system of the vehicle.

Loading with Rear Seatbacks
Folded Down The 60/40 split-folding rear seat with
folding option on the smaller side
only, provides cargo-carrying
versatility.
The seatback fold down easily by
pulling tab between the seatback and
the bolster. The seat folded down, provides a
continuous nearly-flat extension of the
load floor able to accommodate large
sized equipment and objects (such as
the “Maserati Ski and Snowboard
Bag”) that may not fit with the normal
dimensions of the trunk.
Ski and Snowboard Bag Housing
To safely store the Ski and Snowboard
Bag:
• Tilt forward the short seatback side. • Secure the rear hook of the bag to
the eyelet located on the rear wall of
the trunk.
• Wrap the belt around the seat back
of the folded seat and fasten the belt
buckle.
• Tighten the belt as much as necessary
to prevent the bag from moving.
When the seatback is folded to the
upright position, make sure it is
latched by strongly pulling on the top
of the seatback above the seat strap.
WARNING!
• Make sure that the seatback is
securely locked into position. If the
seatback is not securely locked into
position, the seat will not provide
the proper stability for child seats
and/or passengers. An improperlyUnderstanding the Vehicle
