Starting and Driving
Warnings when Driving
Your driving skills will improve with
experience, but be especially careful at
the beginning. Always comply with local
traffic regulations wherever you drive.
Failure to operate this vehicle correctly
may result in loss of control or a collision.
Operating this vehicle at excessive
speed or in an altered state or while
intoxicated may result in loss of control,
going off the road, or overturning. In
all these situations a collision with
other vehicles or objects is more likely
to happen with the risk to cause an
accident that may lead to serious injury.
In case of an accident, failure to use seat
belts causes the driver and passengers a
greater risk of injury or death.
This manual contains warnings against
operating procedures that could result
in a collision or injury or damage to the
environment. It also contains cautions
against procedures that could damage
the vehicle.
If you do not entirely read this manual,
you may miss important information.
Consider carefully all warnings and
cautions.

Maserati strongly recommends to use
particular care when operating the
