In an Emergency

SOS and Assist Call ( )

The car is equipped with on-board
assistance functions designed to provide
support in the event of an accident
and/or emergency (SOS Call) or vehicle
malfunction (Assist Call).
NOTE:
For SOS and Assist Call functions
(automatic call included), location (GPS)
must always be active: any deactivation
would make these services unavailable.
SOS Call
The SOS Call is sent to a private
response centre/the police (when
the call is provided as public service,
it goes to the 112 (one-one-two
European Emergency Number) or the
999 (nine-nine-nine UAE Emergency
Number)). The call is powered by its own
6
rechargeable battery to ensure operation
even when the vehicle battery is low or
disconnected.
When the call system battery goes low,
the MIA screen will show a message and
send a notification via mobile App. If the
pop-up Maserati Connect Module error:
"Battery of Maserati Connect Module
is temporary low. SOS Call and related
functions may not be available" occurs,
set the vehicle in key-on/engine-on
status to allow the battery of the
270
connected module to recharge till the
popup disappears.
NOTE:
Failure to replace the call system battery
or to ignore system warnings may impair
or completely exclude the operation of
the services.
In an Emergency
Regardless of the state of charge, the
call system battery must be replaced
every 5 years at the Service Network.
The SOS Call is only to be used when
there is a concern for the health of
individuals. In this case, the operator
of the emergency centre verifies the
status of the vehicle's safety systems
and defines with the driver the type of
emergency support needed (ambulance,
fire brigade, etc..). The SOS Call is
automatically forwarded in the event of
an accident with air bag deployment
providing that the ignition device is in
ON position and air bags are working
