General Warnings - Maserati Gransport Owner's Manual

If the warning light
switches on when the vehicle
is running (indicating a fault),
contact your Authorized Maserati
Dealer as soon as possible to have the
system checked.
WARNING: The airbag system has a
2 service life of ten years. When this
expiration date is approaching,
contact your Authorized Maserati
Dealer.
In case of a collision with
consequent airbag
deplayment, contact your
Authorized Maserati Dealer for
replacement of the entire safety
system, electronic control unit, seat
belts, pretensioners, and to have the
vehicle's electrical system checked.
All testing, repairs and
replacement of the airbag

Authorized Maserati Dealer.
32 Front and side airbags
Never remove the steering
wheel. This operation, when
needed, must be performed
only by authorized personnel of your
Authorized Maserati Dealer.
WARNING: To scrap the vehicle, please
contact your Authorized Maserati
Dealer to have the system deactivated.
If the vehicle is sold, the new owner
must be informed of how to use the
vehicle and of the aforesaid warnings
and he must also be given the Owner's
Manual.
The electronic control unit
activates the pretensioners
and front/side airbags on the
basis of different criteria according to
the type of collision. The fact that one
or the other system do not activate is
not indicative of system malfunction.

General warnings

When the ignition key is
rotated to the MAR position
the warning light switches
on, but it should switch off after
approximately 5 seconds. If the light
fails to come on at this time, or stays
on, or lights up when driving, contact
your Authorized Maserati Dealer
immediately.
Drive with both hands on the
steering wheel so that if the
airbag inflates it can do so
freely without encountering obstacles
which can cause serious injuries. Do
not drive with the body curved
forward but keep the seat back
upright to support your back.
Do not apply stickers or other
objects to the steering wheel
or the passenger side airbag
housing.
