Maserati Ghibli, Owner'S Manual

Page: 58 / 308

WARNING!
• Deployed air bags and seat belt
pretensioners cannot protect you in
another collision. Have the air bags,
seat belt pretensioners, and the
front seat belt retractor assemblies
replaced by a Maserati Service
Center. Also, have the Occupant
Restraint Controller (ORC) system
serviced as well.
• Have the air bag checked, serviced
and replaced only by the Maserati
Service Network.
Air bag System Maintenance
WARNING!
• Modifications to any part of the air
bag system could cause it to fail
when you need it; thus you could be
injured if the air bag system is not
there to protect you. Do not modify
the components or wiring. Do not
modify the front bumper, vehicle
body structure, or add aftermarket
side steps or running boards.
• It is dangerous to try to repair any
part of the air bag system without
the necessary know-how.
• Do not attempt to modify any part
of your air bag system. The air bag
may inflate accidentally or may not
function properly if modifications
are made. Take your vehicle to the
Maserati Service Network for any air
bag system service. If your seat
including your trim cover and
cushion needs to be serviced in any
way (including removal or
loosening/tightening of seat
attachment bolts), take the vehicle
to the Maserati Service Network.
• Only Maserati manufacturer
approved seat accessories may be
used. If it is necessary to modify the
air bag system for persons with
disabilities, contact the Maserati
Service Network.
• If the speedometer, tachometer, or
any engine related gauges are not
working, the Occupant Restraint
Controller (ORC) may also be
disabled. The air bags may not be
ready to inflate for your protection.
Promptly check the fuse block for
blown fuses. To identify the air bag
fuse see “Fuse Replacement” in
section 7. See the Maserati Service
Network if the fuse is efficient.
Passenger’s Air bag
Deactivation (if foreseen)
If you have to carry a child on the
front passenger seat, always deactivate
the air bag on the passenger’s side
before installing a rearward-facing
child seat.
To deactivate the air bag, open the
menu “Vehicle Settings” and skip to
“Passenger Airbag” (see “Instrument
Cluster” in section 4).
With the switch pressed in the
▼
arrow direction select option “Off”
and confirm by pressing the switch
