WARNING: In the case of scrapping
of the vehicle, contact your local
Authorized Maserati Dealer to have
the system deactivated.
WARNING: If the vehicle is sold, the
new owner must be informed of the
aforesaid instructions for use and
warnings, and he/she must also be
provided with the “Owner’s Manual”.
The electronic control unit
activates the pretensioners
and front/lateral airbags
based on different criteria, according
to the type of collision. The fact
that one or more systems do not
activate is not indicative of a system
malfunction.
Event Data Recorder (EDR)
This vehicle is equipped with an
event data recorder (EDR). The main
purpose of an EDR is to record,
in certain crash or near crash-
like situations, such as an air bag
deployment or hitting a road obstacle,
data that will assist in understanding
how a vehicle’s systems performed.
The EDR is designed to record data
related to vehicle dynamics and safety
systems for 5 seconds.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to
record such data as:
s HOWVARIOUSSYSTEMSINYOURVEHICLE
were operating;
s WHETHERORNOTTHEDRIVERAND
passenger safety belts were
buckled/fastened;
s HOWFARIFATALL THEDRIVERWAS
depressing the accelerator and/or
brake pedal; and
s HOWFASTTHEVEHICLEWASTRAVELING
These data can help provide a better
understanding of the circumstances in
which crashes and injuries occur.
NOTE: EDR data are recorded by
your vehicle only if a non-trivial
crash situation occurs; no data are
recorded by the EDR under normal
driving conditions and no personal
data (e.g., name, gender, age,
and crash location) are recorded.
However, other parties, such as law
enforcement, could combine the
EDR data with the type of personally
identifying data routinely acquired
during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR,
special equipment is required, and
access to the vehicle or the EDR is
needed.
In addition to the vehicle
manufacturer, other parties, such
as law enforcement, that have the
special equipment, can read the
information if they have access to
vehicle or the EDR.
