Frequently Asked Questions - GranTurismo Convertible (2018) Maserati

What type of fuel should I use for the Maserati GranTurismo Convertible?

Use premium unleaded gasoline with an AKI (Anti-Knock Index) of 91 or higher (approximately 95 RON). Do not use leaded fuel or fuel containing more than 10% ethanol.

What is the recommended tire pressure?

The recommended cold tire pressure is 32 psi (220 kPa) for both front and rear tires. Check pressure when tires are cold before driving.

How often should I have my Maserati serviced?

Follow the Scheduled Maintenance plan, which recommends service every 10,000 miles (16,000 km) or 12 months, whichever comes first. Refer to the 'Scheduled Service Plan' in the manual for details.

What engine oil does the GranTurismo Convertible require?

Use SAE 5W-40 synthetic engine oil meeting API SL/CF and ACEA A3/B3/B4 specifications. The oil capacity is 9.0 liters (max). Recommended oil: PENNZOIL Platinum Euro 5W-40.

How do I operate the convertible soft top?

The soft top can be operated via the dedicated switch on the center console or by remote key. Ensure the trunk is closed and vehicle is stationary. For complete instructions, see chapter 'Soft Top' in the 'Understanding the Vehicle' section.

Can I tow a trailer with my Maserati GranTurismo Convertible?

No. The vehicle has not been designed, developed, or homologated for towing trailers, campers, or any other vehicle. Towing may cause damage and void warranty.

How do I jump-start the battery?

The battery is located in the trunk. Use jumper cables with a 12V booster battery. Connect positive (+) to positive, then negative (-) to a ground point on your vehicle. Start the engine of the booster vehicle first, then your Maserati. For safety, refer to the 'Jump Starting Procedure' in the 'In an Emergency' section.

SeatBeltPretensioners

Tofurtherenhancetheseatbelt efficiency, the vehicle front seat belts are equipped with ETD (Emergency Tensioning Device) pretensioners. Thesedeves "detect", by means of a sensor, that violent crash is occurring and retract the belts by a few centimeters. This ensures that the belt properly adheres to the occupants'

bodiesbeforeitsrestrainingaction starts.

The warning sequence begins after the vehicles speed is over 5 mph (8 km/h) from more than 19 seconds, by blinking these at belt reminder light and by sounding an intermittent chime.

Oncethesequencestarts, it will continue for the entire duration. After these sequence completes, these at belt reminder light remain illuminated until the respective seat belts are fastened.

If the opened door on the driver or passengers side is closed and the occupant presence sensor detects a status change from occupant not present to occupant present the system will repeat the warning sequence.

The drivers should instruct all other occupant to fast the their seat belts. If a front seat belt is unbuckled while traveling at speed greater than 5 mph (8 km/h), SBR system will provide both audio and visual notification on the instrument cluster. The front passenger seat SBR is not active when the front passenger seat is not occupied. SBR may be triggered when an animal or heavy object is on the front passenger seat. It is recommended to restrain pets in the rear seat, in petharnesses or pet carrier that are secured by seat belts, and properly stow cargo.

MaintainingtheSeatBelts

•Alwaysusetheseatbeltswiththe beltcompletelyflat, nottwisted.

Makesurethatthebeltcanmove freelywithoutjamming.

InstallingChildRestraint SystemsusingtheVehicleSeat BeltequippedwithALR

All the passenger seat belts are equipped with an Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) to secure child protection through a Child Restraint System (CRS). Thesetypes of seat belts are designed to keep the lapportion of these seat belt tight around the child restraint seat avoiding tousealocking clip.

The ALR will make a retatrache ting noise if the entire belt is pulled out of the retractor in order to enable the belt to retract subsequently. For additional information on ALR, see "Using Seat Beltin Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) Mode" in "Occupants Restraint Systems" in this section. To install a Child Restraint System with ALR, pullenough of the belt out of theretractor leading it through the belpath of the protection device. Slidethelatch into the buckle until it clicks, then removethe entiresafety belt from theretractor in order to rewound. Whilerewinding a click will indicate the safety belt is now in Automatic Locking mode. Exert then atraction on the exceeded lapsection of the belt in order to

HillHolderStrategy

The Hill Holder strategy helps the driver when starting off on uphill slopes. It activates only following a vehicle stop when the brake pedal is released, keeping the vehicle stationary for a moment, so to allow the drivertomove his foot from the braketo the accelerator pedal. This strategy is activated on slopes with a gradient of more than 15°.

StoppingtheVehicle

Regardless of the position of the transmission lever, you must only depress the brake pedal to stop the vehicle.

In "low-grip" mode, the system uses 2nd instead of 1st gear; this means that 2nd gear will automatically be engaged (gearshift lever in D(Drive) position) in the event of standing starts automatic mode; on the other hand, when in sequential manual mode (transmission lever in MANUAL "+" ), moving the transmission lever from N(Neutral), or R(Reverse) or when the vehicle stops, 2nd gear will automatically be engaged. Whensequential manual mode is selected with 2nd gear engaged, a downshift request will be ignored. Whiledriving, the system automatically switch the upper gear if the engine eachesthe preestablished speed rate (3000rpm). ICE(low-grip) mode has priority over SPORT mode and assists the ESC system.

For further information see "Parking Brake" in this section.

SequentialManualOperation (MANUAL)

Inthismode, the transmission interacts with the driver in order to allow manual shift and ensure increased control of the vehicle. The current mode allows the gears system to optimize the engine brake action, remove undesired shifting into higher and lower gears and improve the overall performance of the vehicle. With automatic transmission selected (D(Drive) position), shift the transmission shift over top position "+ " o" -".

Whenthismodeisselected, the symbol "+" or "-" illuminates on the geardisplay, based on the position of the transmission shift lever, and the gear engaged in shown on the instrument cluster display.

Whensequentialmanualoperationis selected, upshiftingordownshifting mustbeperformedmanually.

Toengagethegears, shift the transmissionshiftlevertooneofthe followingtwopositions:

"+" (UP)toengageahighergear; "-" (DOWN)toengagealowergear.

CAUTION!

•However, some conditions will remain automatically controlled, for example, when the engine is overrevving or underrevving, the system automatically engages a higher or lower gear.

- If you request stage gear shift in conditions where the engine is overrevving or underrevving, the system will not accept the command.

Also in automatic transmission mode, when the transmission lever is in position D(Drive), you can shift to a different gear by moving one of the paddles. This action will temporarily switch the system to sequential manual operation.

If you then keep to a constant driving style (low longitudinal and lateral acceleration), the gearbox automatically switches back to automatic operation.

Anti-LockBrakingSystem(ABS) and Electronic Brake-force Distribution(EBD)

The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) provides increased vehicle stability and brake performance undermost braking conditions. Thesystem automatically "pumps" the brakes during severe braking to prevent wheellock-up.

The Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) preventstherearwheels from over-braking and provides greater control of available braking forces applied to therearaxle.

WARNING!

The ABShelps prevent the wheels from locking, but it does not increase the physical griplimits between the tires and theroad. Therefore, always keeps a freedom from the vehicle in front of your sand reduce your speed when entering a curve.

The high-performance brakes system is designed for optimal braking effect at all speeds and temperatures. Certains speeds, braking forces and ambient conditions (e.g. temperature, humidity and long outdoor stopping periods) can therefore cause the brake to "squeal". This is normal and will cease after a few breakings.

NewBrakePadsand/orBrake Discs

DepartmentofTransportation UniformTireQualityGrades

The following tiregrading categories were established by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Thespecific graderating assigned by the tire's manufacturerine each category is shown on the sidewall of the tiresonyour vehicle.

Driving

Allpassengercartiresmustconformto Federalsafetyrequirementsin additiontothesegrades.

Treadwear

The Treadweargrade is a comparative rating, based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled condition as specified government test course. Forexample, atiregraded 150 would wear one and one-half times as well on the government course as atire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual condition of their use, however, and may depart significantly from thenorm dueto variations indriving habits, service practices, and differences in road characteristics and climate.

TractionGrades

The Tractiongrades, from highest to lowest, are AAA, A, B, and C. These grades represent the tire's ability to stop on wet pavement, as measured under controlled condition on specified government tests surfaces of asphalt and concrete. Atiremarked C may have poor traction performance.

WARNING!

Thetractiongradeassignedtothistire isbasedonstraight-aheadbraking tractiontests,anddoesnotinclude acceleration,cornering,hydroplaning, orpeaktractioncharacteristics.

TemperatureGrades

TirePressureCheckup

The proper cold tire inflation pressure is indicated on the driver's siderear doopillar and on the table. "Tire Inflation Pressure" in section "Features and Specifications". Inflation pressures specified on the table always refer to "cold tire inflation pressure". Cold tire inflation pressure is defined as the tire pressure after the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours, or driven less than 1 mi (1,6 km) after three hours period.

Checktirepressuresmoreoftenin caseofsignificantoutside temperaturechanges,astirepressure variesaccordingtotemperature changes.

The pressures should be checked and if necessary adjusted; tire wear and overall conditions should also be checked monthly. Tire pressures

changebyapproximately1PSI(0,07 bar)per12°F(7°C)ofairtemperature change. Keep this in mind when checking tire pressure insideagarage, especially in winter.

Example: Ifgaragetemperature=68°F (20°C) and the outside temperature=32°F (0°C) thenthecold tireinflation pressures should be increased by 3PSI (0,21bar) forever 12°F (7°C) forth this outside temperature condition. Tire pressure may increase from 2 to 6 PSI (0,13 to 0,4 bar) during operation. DONOT reduce this normal pressure build-up or your tire pressure will be too low. After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure, always reinstall the valvestem cap. This will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valvestem, which could damage the valvestemand the TPMS sensor connected to it.

TirePressureMonitoring System-TPMS

Guidelines

Eachtire(includingthesparetire, if provided) should be checked monthly. Tiress should be checked when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer indicated on tire inflation pressure label (applied on the driver's reardoor pillar) and in "Tire Inflation Pressure" of section "Features and Specifications".

If your vehicle hastires of a different sizethanthesize indicated on the vehicle placardortireinflation pressure label, you should determine the propertireinflation pressure for those tires.

Asanadded safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with atire pressure monitoringsystem(TPMS) that

illuminatesalowtirepressuretelltale whenoneormoreofyourtiresis significantlyunder-inflated. Accordingly,whenthelowtire pressuretelltaleilluminates,you shouldstopandcheckyourtiresas soonaspossible,andinflatethemto theproperpressure.Drivingona

significantlyunder-inflatedtirecauses thetiretooverheatandcanleadto tirefailure.Under-inflationalso reducesfuelefficiencyandtiretread life,andmayaffectthevehicle's handlingandstoppingability. PleasenotethattheTPMSisnota substituteforpropertiremaintenance, anditisthedriver'sresponsibilityto maintaincorrecttirepressure,evenif under-inflationhasnotreachedthe leveltotriggerilluminationofthe TPMSlowtirepressuretelltale. Yourvehiclehasalsobeenequipped withaTPMSmalfunctionindicatorto indicatewhenthesystemisnot operatingproperly.

thatpreventtheTPMSfrom functioningproperly.Alwayscheckthe TPMSmalfunctiontelltaleafter replacingoneormoretiresorwheels onyourvehicletoensurethatthe replacementoralternatetiresand wheelsallowtheTPMStocontinueto functionproperly.

GeneralInformation

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) will warn the driver of a low tire pressure according to the vehicle recommended cold pressure indicated on the table "Tire Inflation Pressure" in section "Features and Specifications" and the label applied on the driver's side at the base of there are door pillar.

Thecoldtireinflationpressuremust notexceedthemaximuminflation pressuremoldedintothetiresidewall. Check "Tires-GenerallInformation" in section "Driving" forinformationon howtoproperlyinflatethetires. Thetirepressurewillalsoincreaseas thevehicleisdriven-thisisnormal andthereisnoadjustmentrequired whenthisoccurs.

The TPMS will warn the driver of low tire pressure if the tire pressure falls below the low-pressure warning limit for any reason, including low

temperatureeffectsandnatural pressurelossofthetire. TheTPMSwillcontinuetowarnthe driveroflowtirepressureaslongas theconditionpersistencesandwillnotturn offuntilthetirepressureisequalor abovetherecommendedcold inflationpressure.

The TPMS monitorsthetirepressure by means of special sensors fitted insidethe wheel rims, in position with the inflation valve.

Thesesensorstransmitasignalthatis detected by the antennaintegrated in the ECU.

TheECUprocessesthisinformation and,viatheCANline,transmitsa seriesoftirepressuredataandsystem errors,ifany,totheinstrumentcluster.

During normal operation the catalytic converter produces hight temperatures. Failure to comply with following rules can create fire hazards.

• Donotparkthevehicleon flammablematerials(e.g.grass,dry leaves,pineneedles,etc.).
• Donotinstallheatguardsanddo notremovethosealreadyfittedto thecatalyticconverterandtothe exhaustmanifold.
• Donotsprayanythingonthe catalyticconverter,Oxypensensor andexhaustmanifold.

Inadditiontothecatalyticconverter system, the vehicles are equipped with asystem for controlling fuel vapor emissions. This system, called ORVR, has been designed to help reduce atmospheric pollution by the evaporation from the fuel system during there fueling process. Also, specific to these vehicles is the fuel filler neck which comes equipped with a sealed plug that is grounded to avoid possible parking during re-fueling.

Auxiliary Jump-Start Procedure

If your vehicle has ad discharged battery it can be jump - started using a set of jumpercables and abattery of another vehicle or by using a portable battery booster. It is necessary to have proper jumpercables in order to connect the booster battery to the remotepost of the discharged battery. Boostercables have usually positive and negative terminal clamps and are identified by different sheath color (red = positive, black = negative). Maseratiprovides on request jumpercables created for its models and content in a practical case.

•useofgalvanized(orpre-treated) metalsheetswhicharehighly resistanttocorrosioninthemost exposedparts;

•sprayingoftheunderbody,engine compartment,insidesofwheel housings,andotherstructureswith

waxproductshavinghighprotective power;

• sprayingofplasticmaterials,witha protectivefunction,inthemost exposedpoints:underneaththe doors,insidepartofthemudguards, edges,etc.;
• useofventilatedboxsections, coatedwithprotectivewaxproducts, toavoidcondensationandtrapped waterwhichcouldencouragethe formationofinternalrust.

UsefulAdvicetoKeepthe BodyworkinGoodCondition

Paint

The paintwork does not only have an aesthetic function but also protects the underlying metals sheets. In the event of abrasions or deepscratches, were recommend to have the necessary touch-ups made immediately, to avoid any trust formation. Touch-ups donot feature particular difficulties, even on metallic finishes.

For all paint touch-ups, use only original products indicated on the plate applied inside the hood.

MaintenanceandCare

Normalpaintmaintenanceconsistsin washing, the frequency of which depends on the conditions of fuse and of the environment. Forexample, if driving the vehicle in areas where there is high atmospheric pollution or theroads aRESPREAD with anti-freeze salt, it is advisable to wash the vehicle more frequently.

ENVIRONMENTAL!

BatteryStatement

BatteryStatementStatusof Charge

To avoid problems with ignition and/or the electrical systeming general when you are driving, the battery charge status is constantly maintained and guaranteed by the vehicle's recharge circuit; them in component of which is the alternator. This circuit is only a bit to supply voltage to the battery when the vehicle is traveling. The warning light on the instrument cluster (see "Instrument Cluster" in section "Dashboard Instruments and Controls"), will indicate anymal functions in the recharge circuit or an insufficient battery charge status (flashing). The vehicle is fitted with advanced electronics systems, such as, for example, the alarmsystem and various electronic control modules, which consume power even when the key in the ignition switch is in the STOP (OFF) position and the vehicle is not being used.

Therefore,itisfundamentalthatthe batteryisproperlychargedtoensure thattheenginestartsproperlyand

that all the electrical/electronics systems in the vehicle work efficiently.

MaintainingBatteryCharge

Ifyouperformshortdailytrips (approximately 10 miles/16 km), which correspond to an annual total of 4000 miles/6000 km, or when the vehicle is not going to be used for on a week or more. Maseratire recommends connecting the vehicle to a battery charger, to save out the trouble of having to recharge the battery (see "Battery Charge Maintainer Operation" in this chapter). The battery chargemaintainer will keep the battery charged properly and at the correct voltage levels required by the systems and devices in the vehicle.
