Keys
The Maserati CODE system
In order to increase protection against
theft, the vehicle is equipped with
an electronic engine immobilizer
system (Maserati CODE), which is
automatically activated when the
ignition key is removed.
Each starter key contains an electronic
device which transmits a code signal
to the Maserati CODE control unit,
and engine ignition is enabled only
if the key code is recognised by the
system.
Two keys are supplied with the
vehicle.
The key is used for:
- starting the engine;
- activating the central door locking
system;
- deactivating/activating the
passenger airbag (on vehicles
equipped with manual deactivation
system);
- opening the luggage compartment
lid electrically;
- activating/deactivating the alarm
system;
- locking/unlocking the glove
compartment.
Using the key, you can control the soft
top opening/closing strategy referred
to as “Summer open”.
Summer Open
Opening
With the soft top fully closed:
- insert the key in the driver’s door
lock;
- turn the key clockwise until
unlocking the doors and hold it in
this position. The automatic soft
top opening cycle will begin after
approx. two seconds;
- do not move the key for the entire
opening cycle.
WARNING: The cycle can be
interrupted at any time, moving the
key back to its initial position.
Closing
With the soft top fully open:
- insert the key in the driver’s door
lock;
- turn the key counterclockwise until
locking the doors and hold it in
this position. The automatic soft
top closing cycle will begin after
approx. two seconds;
- do not move the key for the entire
closing cycle.
WARNING: The cycle can be
interrupted at any time, moving the
key back to its initial position.
These operations are performed
with the engine off. This involves an
extremely high power consumption,
which causes the battery to discharge
faster.
