The distance from the obstacles can
also be graphically shown on the
instrument panel display by means of
an image that shows the vehicle
surrounded by explanatory symbols of
the distance (maximum/average/
minimum) and the position (front/rear/
central/side) of the obstacle detected.
The colour represents the distance,
while the field represents the position.
The green colour represents the
maximum distance detected, the
yellow colour the medium distance
and the red colour the minimum one.
If the vehicle is equipped only with
rear sensors, the front sensors are not
shown in the image.
If the vehicle is equipped with front
and rear sensors, the rear sensors are
not shown in the image if only the
front sensors are active.
Stop & Go function
The vehicle is equipped with a Stop &
Go function that can be activated
®
through the Bose Infotainment
system. The Stop & Go function can be
enabled/ disabled by accessing the
"Vehicle Options" menu, selecting the
"Front parking sensor" option, then
the Stop & Go parking option and
setting it to "ON". With the Stop & Go
function active, the front sensors will
automatically be activated in all
conditions where the vehicle speed
goes below 8 Km/h (5 mph).
WARNING: The Stop & Go function is
only available if the vehicle is
equipped with front parking sensors.
For the system to operate
correctly the sensors
positioned on the bumper
must be kept clean (remove any mud,
dirt, snow or ice).
Cleaning the sensors
When cleaning the sensors, take
special care not to scratch or damage
them; therefore, do not use dry, rough
or hard cloths.
The sensors must be washed with clean
water, possibly with car shampoo
added. In car-washes which use steam
jet or high pressure cleaning machines,
keep the nozzle at least 10 cm away
from the sensors.
Should you need to repaint the
bumper or in case of paint touch-ups in
the sensor area, please contact
exclusively the Maserati Service
Network. Incorrect paint application
could affect the parking sensor
operation.
