Maintenance and Care
Maintenance Procedures
The following pages contain the
“required” maintenance standards
determined by Maserati engineers.
Besides those maintenance items
specified in the “Scheduled Service
Plan”, there are other components
which may require service or
replacement in the future.
To perform most of the services, it
is necessary to open the hood (see
“Open and Close the Hood” in section
“Before Starting”).
CAUTION!
•
Failure to properly maintain your
vehicle or perform repairs and service
when necessary could result in more
costly repairs, damage to other
components or negatively impact
vehicle performance. Immediately
have potential malfunctions checked
by the
Service Network : please be
advised that Maserati recommends
to address to the
Official Service
Network .
•
Your vehicle has been equipped
with improved fluids that protect
the performance and durability of
your vehicle and also allow extended
maintenance intervals. Do not use
chemical flushes for washing as the
chemicals can damage your engine,
transmission, electric power steering
or air conditioning. Such damages
are not covered by the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty. If a flush is needed
because of component malfunction,
use only a specific product for the
flushing procedure.
Level Checks
ENVIRONMENTAL!
• The engine oils and fluids used
contain substances that are
dangerous for the environment.
For replacement you are advised
to contact the Service Network,
where all the necessary equipment
is available to dispose of the used
oil and fluids in compliance with
the regulations in force and in an
environmentally-friendly manner.
• All equipment used for fluids
replacement (gloves, cloths,
containers, etc) must be disposed of
in compliance with the regulations in
force.
Engine Coolant Level Check
Your vehicle has been equipped
with an improved engine coolant
(antifreeze) that offers high protection
against corrosion, freezing and allows
extended maintenance intervals.
To prevent reducing extended
maintenance periods, it is important
to use original engine coolant
(antifreeze) when adding coolant
throughout the life of your vehicle.
When adding engine coolant
(antifreeze) use pure water only, such
as distilled or deionized water when
mixing the water/engine coolant
(antifreeze) solution. The use of
impure water will reduce the amount
of corrosion protection in the engine
cooling system.
• Mix a minimum solution of 50%
engine coolant (antifreeze)
and distilled water. Use higher
concentrations (do not exceed 70%)
if temperatures below
−
37
°
C (
−
35
°
F)
are forecasted.
Please note that it is the owner's
responsibility to maintain the proper
level of protection against freezing
according to the temperatures
occurring in the circulation area of the
vehicle.
The coolant reservoir provides a quick
visual method to determine that the
coolant level is adequate. As long as
the engine operating temperature is
