Drive Mode - Maserati Ghibli Owner's Manual

WARNING!
There may be a slight delay for
AWD engagement after a wheel slip
condition occurs.
NOTE:
If the AWD system service warning
message appears after engine start
up, or during driving, it means that
the AWD system is not functioning
properly or is in recovery mode due to
overheating caused by the excessive
wheel spin. In this condition the
vehicle can continue driving but only
rear wheel drive is working. If the
warning message is often activated, it
is recommended to have the vehicle
serviced at the Service Network.
