If you have to tow the car

The car is ﬁtted with a front

emergency towing hook.

The towing hook is to be found in the

tool box.

Do not use other attachment points for

towing.

To access the towing hook seat,

remove the cap on the lower right-

hand side of the front bumpers.

Screw down the hook into its seat.

WARNING If you have to tow the

vehicle with 2 wheels raised, make sure

the ignition key is in the STOP position.

If this is not the case, with the MSP

system activated, the relative control

unit would store a malfunction causing

the indicator to come up on the

multifunction display. This requires the

intervention of the Maserati Service

Network to have the system restored.

When towing the car, make

sure that you observe the

road trafﬁc regulations

concerning both the towing device

and driving conduct.

Before starting to tow, rotate

the ignition key to the MAR

position and subsequently to

STOP without removing it! Removing

the key automatically locks the

steering wheel, thereby making it

impossible to steer the wheels.

Position the gearshift lever in neutral

(“N” position for cars with

"Cambiocorsa" gearbox).

When towing the car with the

engine off, remember that

without the assistance of the

brake servo, a stronger effort will be

required on the brake pedal and on

the steering wheel for steering.

Screw down the hook into its

seat (approx. 11 turns).

Accurately clean the threaded

seat before tightening the hook.
