Battery Statement
Battery Statement Status of
Charge
To avoid problems with ignition and/or
the electrical system in general when
you are driving, the battery charge
status is constantly maintained and
guaranteed by the vehicle's recharge
circuit; the main component of which
is the alternator. This circuit is only
able to supply voltage to the battery
when the vehicle is travelling.
The warning light
on the
instrument cluster, will indicate any
malfunctions in the recharge circuit or
an insufficient battery charge status
(example in figure).
The vehicle contains advanced
electronic systems, such as, for
example, the alarm system and various
electronic control modules, which
consume power even when the
ignition switch is in the
OFF position
and the vehicle is not being used.
Therefore, it is fundamental that the
battery is properly charged to ensure
that the engine starts properly and
that all the electrical/electronic systems
in the vehicle work efficiently.
Maintaining Battery Charge
If you perform short daily trips
(approximately 16 km/10 miles),
which correspond to an annual total
of 6000 km/4000 miles, or when the
vehicle is not going to be used for one
week or more, Maserati recommends
connecting the vehicle to a battery
charger, to save you the trouble of
having to recharge the battery. The
battery charger will keep the battery
charged properly and at the correct
voltage levels required by the systems
and devices in the vehicle.
Before using the battery charger,
carefully follow the instructions
provided.
If you do not use a battery charger
to prevent the battery from going
flat when you are not going to use
the vehicle for long periods of time,
you need to check and recharge the
battery at least once every three
weeks. Make this check if you perform
