System Care
Safe usage of the MTC+ System
Read all instructions in this manual
carefully before using your system to
ensure proper usage! Your system is a
sophisticated electronic device. Do not
let young children use your system.
Permanent hearing loss may occur if
you play your music or the system at
loud volumes. Exercise caution when
setting the volume on your system.
Driving is a complex activity that
requires your full attention. If you’re
engaged in driving or any activity that
requires your full attention, we
recommend that you do not use your
system.
NOTE:
Many features of this system are speed
dependent. For your own safety, it is
not possible to use the touch screen
keyboard while the vehicle is in
motion. Keep drinks, rain, and other
sources of moisture away from your
system. Besides damage to your
system, moisture can cause electric
shocks as with any electronic device.
Connections
Never force any connector into the
ports of your system.
Make sure your connectors are the
correct shape and size before you
connect.
Any attached cable should be routed
so that it will not apply any pressure to
the connection and should not
obstruct the driver operation.
Touch screen
Do NOT attach any object to the touch
screen, doing so can result in damage
to the touch screen.
Do not touch the screen with any hard
or sharp objects (pen, USB stick,
jewelry, etc.) which could scratch the
touch screen surface!

NOTE:
It is possible to use a plastic stylus for
press screen enabled devices such as a
PDA and Pocket PCs. Do not spray any
liquid or caustic chemicals directly on
the screen! Use a clean and dry micro
fiber lens cleaning cloth in order to
clean the touch screen. If necessary,
use a lint-free cloth dampened with a
cleaning solution, such as isopropyl
alcohol, or an isopropyl alcohol and
water solution ratio of 50:50. Be sure
to follow the solvent manufacturer’s
precautions and directions.
GPS Navigation and Satellite
Radio Antenna
The GPS navigation and satellite radio
antenna is integrated into the fin on
the roof of the vehicle. Do not place
items on the roof around the roof top
antenna location. Objects placed
within the line of sight of the antenna
will cause decreased performance.
Larger luggage items should be placed
as far from the antenna as possible.
Do not place items directly on or
above the antenna.
Other Electronic Devices
You may bring other electronic devices
into your vehicle (e.g., PDA, iPod, etc.).
Some of these devices may cause
electromagnetic interference with the
GPS. If a degradation in the
Navigation System is observed, turn
the devices off, or keep them as far
away from the GPS antenna as
possible.

distance or rating.
• Provide up-to-date search listings
(pulling the latest information from
the cloud).

scan 12 categories and millions of
POIs to provide drivers with a local
guide for real word-of-mouth
recommendations.
• With one touch, select from the list
to find location address, phone
number, user ratings, hours of
operation (if available) and price
ratings (if available).
• The ability to call the selected POI
directly (a device must be paired via
Bluetooth), or have the address
immediately sent to the navigation
system for routing (if equipped).
How It Works

by touching Apps Yelp.
Or using voice recognition: press the
button on the steering wheel
and say “Launch Yelp.”

results.
• Navigate to the location by pressing
“Go Now” (if equipped with
navigation).
NOTE:
Save your destination to “Favourites”.
To find it again go to “Nav” > “Where
to” > “Favourites”.
How to Add and Delete Search

by first initiating the search,
then pressing the star. To

Voice Texting
Description
This Voice Texting enhances the Voice
Text Reply feature built into your
MTC+ Access radio. While Voice Text
Reply provides 18 pre-defined
messages you can send, Voice Texting
lets you create and send nearly any
message you want. Just speak your
message as if you were talking to the
recipient, and the MTC+ Access
voice-texting technology will convert
your voice into a text message.
Voice Texting and Voice Text Reply
features are compatible with many
newer Android and Blackberry devices.
Before using, determine if your device
has been tested to support Bluetooth
®
“Message Access Profile (MAP)” at
www.maserati.com. iPhone and some
other devices do not currently support
Bluetooth

screen will change from grey to white.
This is an indicator that Voice Texting
will work with your device. Outgoing
voice texts may not be possible. The
device may allow incoming texts only.
Determine if your device has been
tested to support Bluetooth “Message
Access Profile” (MAP) - at

FAQs
Can I still voice text if my device is not
listed?
We are constantly testing devices and
updating our compatibility database.
If your device is not listed, you may
still be able to pair and connect your
MAP supported device to a compatible
MTC+ radio to see if all or most voice
texting functions work. Check your
device manufacturer if MAP is
supported on your device.
Can I use voice texting while in my
other Maserati vehicle?
The Voice Texting free text response
feature is available only on MTC+
(sales code RA4) radio. Other Maserati
vehicles do support hands free texting,
but only with fixed responses.
My “Messaging” soft-key on the
touch screen is White, but I can only
use pre-formatted responses
The Voice Texting free-form voice
response requires a subscription to the
MTC+ Access Advantage package.
(some devices will support
pre-formatted responses, but not
free-form. Refer to www.maserati.com
for further details.)
Do I have to “train” my MTC+ Radio to
my voice?
Maserati uses the latest voice
recognition engine that provides good
recognition without required training.
This makes it easier for a passenger to
also use the system.
Can a passenger voice text?
Yes, however, voice recognition
microphones are optimised for the
driver, so the system may have
difficulty hearing the passenger; also,
the system will use the currently
connected device, so be sure your
passenger isn’t sending texts to the
wrong recipient.
Does Voice Texting work with
accents?
Speech isn’t perfect. Technology isn’t
perfect. While Maserati strives to use
the latest voice recognition engine,
the technology may have difficulty
with strong accents.
Can I voice text my car?
The “Voice Texting” feature allows
you to listen to, and reply to text
messages (SMS) sent to your device by
voice while in your vehicle.
How many pre-formatted replies are
there?
You can respond with a set of up to 18
preset outgoing messages such as "I’ll
call you later.” Refer to “Voice
Texting” paragraph in this chapter.
Can I use abbreviations and
emoticons?
Of course! Just say the name of the
most popular emoticon or
abbreviation, e.g. smiley, frown, wink,
& LOL.
Can I use text messaging if the
“messaging” button doesn’t turn
white?
Only MAP compatible devices will
work with text messaging. If your
device is compatible, the “messaging”
light will turn white, after the device
is Bluetooth
®
connected, and you will
then be able to do hands free text
messaging. The system will respond
with “Sorry, I didn’t understand you”
if you push the steering wheel phone
button and say a voice command
for text messaging, when the button
isn’t active (“white”).

SOS-Emergency Call
(available only for Russian
market)
WARNING!
Some MTC+ Access services, including
SOS-Emergency call, will NOT work
without an operable 3G (data)
network connection.
With MTC+ Access, your vehicle has
on-board assistance features that is
activated by the button located on the
dome console designed to enhance
your driving experience if you should
ever need assistance or support.
Description
SOS-Emergency Call is a feature that,
at the push of a button, can contact
emergency services providing that the
Telematic Box Module (TDM) is
working and the ignition device is in
RUN or ACC position. The manual
emergency Call is possible also when
the ignition device is in OFF position
until its backlight stays on. It’s a
convenient way to get in contact with
an operator in the event of an
emergency. When the connection
between the vehicle and an operator
is made, your vehicle will
automatically transmit location and
vehicle information to the emergency
service operator.
The SOS-Emergency Call is
automatically forwarded in the event
of an accident with airbag
intervention providing that the
ignition device is in RUN position and
airbags are working (malfunction
warning light off).
Ended the call, you can still call the
emergency service operator to
indicate additional information by
pressing the button again.
How It Works
Press and hold for a few seconds the
SOS-Emergency Call button on the
dome console; the green LED on the
button will blink and then become a
fixed light indicating a call has been
placed.
NOTE:
In case the SOS-Emergency Call button
is accidentally pushed, there is a 10
second delay before the call is placed.
The system will verbally alert you that
a call is about to be made. To cancel
the call connection, push the
SOS-Emergency Call button on the
dome console.
Once a connection between the
vehicle and an emergency service
operator is made, the SOS-Emergency
Call system will transmit the following
important vehicle information to the
operator:
• Indication that the occupant placed
an SOS-Emergency Call.
• The Vehicle Identification Number
(VIN).
• The last known GPS coordinates of
the vehicle.
You should be able to speak with the
emergency service operator to
MTC+ Access
3
37
determine if additional help is needed.
The SOS-Emergency Call has priority
over other audio sources, which will be
muted. If you have a phone connected
via Bluetooth
®
, it is disconnected and
reconnected at the end of the
SOS-Emergency Call.
Voice prompts will guide you during
the SOS-Emergency Call.
If a connection is made between an
emergency service operator and your
vehicle, you understand and agree
that operators may, like any other
emergency call, record conversations
and sounds in and near your vehicle
upon connection.
SOS-Emergency Call System
Limitations
If the SOS-Emergency Call system
detects a malfunction, any of the
following may occur at the time the
malfunction is detected:
• The LED on the dome console button
will continuously be illuminated red.
• The instrument cluster will display a
message alerting you to contact the
Service Network together with the
failure warning light.
Even if the SOS-Emergency Call system
is fully functional, external or not
controlled factors may prevent or stop
SOS-Emergency Call operation. These
include, but are not limited to, the
following factors:
• The key fob has been removed from
the vehicle and the delayed
accessories mode is active.
• The ignition device is in OFF position.
• The vehicle’s electrical systems are
not intact.
• The SOS-Emergency Call system
software and/or hardware is
damaged during a vehicle crash.
• The vehicle battery loses power or
becomes disconnected during a
vehicle crash.
• 3G (data) network and/or GPS signals
are unavailable or obstructed.
• Equipment malfunction at the
emergency service operator facility.
• Operator error.
• 3G (data) network congestion.
• Weather.
• Buildings, structures, geographic
terrain, or tunnels.
NOTE:
The signal strength bars on the Apps
soft-key on the touch screen will show
a single bar and a symbol to indicate
your vehicle is not connected to an
operable 3G (data) network.
If your vehicle loses battery power for
any reason (including during or after
an accident) the SOS-Emergency Call
system, among other vehicle systems,
will not operate.
Requirements
• This feature is available only on
vehicles sold in Russian market.
• Vehicle must have an operable 3G
(data) network connection.
• Vehicle must be powered with a
properly functioning electrical
system.
• The ignition device must be in the
RUN or ACC position and in OFF
position until its backlight stays on.
WARNING!
Never place anything on or near the
vehicle’s 3G (data) and GPS aerials.
You could prevent 3G (data) and GPS
signal reception, which can prevent
your vehicle from placing an
MTC+ Access
3
38
emergency call. An operable 3G
(data) network connection and a
GPS signal is required for the
SOS-Emergency Call system to
function properly.
Do not add any aftermarket
electrical equipment to the vehicle’s
electrical system. This may prevent
your vehicle from sending a signal
to initiate an emergency call. To
avoid interference that can cause
the SOS-Emergency Call system to
fail, never add aftermarket
equipment (e.g., two-way mobile
radio, CB radio, data recorder, etc.)
to your vehicle’s electrical system or
modify the antennas on your
vehicle. IF YOUR VEHICLE LOSES
BATTERY POWER FOR ANY REASON
(INCLUDING DURING OR AFTER AN
ACCIDENT) THE MTC+ FEATURES,
APPS AND SERVICES AMONG
OTHERS WILL NOT OPERATE.
The Occupant Restraint Controller
(ORC) turns on the airbag warning
light on the instrument cluster if a
malfunction in any part of the
airbag system is detected. If the
airbag warning light is illuminated,
the airbag system may not be
working properly and the
SOS-Emergency Call system may not
be able to send a signal to an
emergency service operator. If the
airbag warning light is illuminated,
have immediately the airbag system
checked ad the Service Network.
Ignoring the LED on dome console
button could mean you will not
have emergency call services if
needed. If the LED on dome console
button is illuminated in red color,
have immediately the airbag system
checked ad the Service Network.
If anyone in the vehicle could be in
danger (e.g., fire or smoke is visible,
dangerous road conditions or
location), do not wait for voice
contact from an emergency service
operator. All occupants should exit
the vehicle immediately and move
to a safe location.
Failure to perform scheduled
maintenance and regularly inspect
your vehicle may result in vehicle
damage, accident or injury.

when I Call Emergency Service
Operator from My Vehicle?

note that emergency service operators
may record conversations and sounds
within your vehicle once a connection
is made, and that by using the service
you consent to having this
information shared.
When Could I Use the SOS-Emergency
Call Button?
You can use the emergency button to

not possible to use some of the touch
screen features while the vehicle is in
motion.
• Keep drinks, rain, and other sources
of moisture away from your system.

Device Connection and
Audio Tips with MTC+
• More than one device can be paired
to your vehicle. The connected
device with the highest priority will
be used. To transition between
devices, select “Phone” soft-key >
“Settings”, then touch the desired
device.
• Multiple devices may be connected
at one time. For example, a device
can be paired and connected for
hands-free calling and texting, while
a USB media source is connected for
audio. However, only one Bluetooth
connection can be used at a time.
• Device calls will always have the
highest priority regardless of which
connection is active (only the SOS -
Emergency Call (if equipped) will
have a higher priority than the
device). For example, if an App is
launched and the user receives a call,
the user will be exited out of the
App and returned to the App when
the call ends.
• After all devices are connected/
paired, when switching to a
different audio source, audio will
auto-play from the new source.
• Current audio (AM-MW-LW-SW/FM/
DAB-DAB+-DMB/AUX/SD) will
continue to play when switching to a
non-media type App.
• Current audio (AM-MW-LW-SW/FM/
DAB-DAB+-DMB/AUX/SD) is muted
during SOS-Emergency Call.
• Device calls will mute all audio
except for Navigator (Nav) prompts
if guidance is currently active (audio
will resume after device call is
ended).
• All secondary incoming device calls
will be treated similar to “call
waiting” (except SOS-Emergency
Call).
• Incoming calls received while
entering a Navigator (Nav)
destination (before pressing “Go”)
will cancel the Navigator (Nav) entry.
The user is required to start over
when the device call has ended.

Your mobile phone’s audio is
transmitted through your vehicle’s
audio system; the system will
automatically mute your radio when
using the MTC+ System Phone
features.
For customer support visit your
Maserati local authorized dealership.
MTC+ System Connect Phone allows
you to transfer calls between the
system and your mobile phone as you
enter or exit your vehicle and enables
you to mute the system's microphone
for private conversation.
The MTC+ System Phone is driven
through your Bluetooth
®
“Hands-free
Profile” mobile phone. MTC+ features
Bluetooth
®
technology - the global
standard that enables different
electronic devices to connect to each
other without wires or a docking
station, so MTC+ System Phone works
no matter where you stow your mobile
phone (be it your purse, pocket, or
briefcase), as long as your phone is
turned on and has been paired to the
vehicle's MTC+ Connect Phone. The
MTC+ System Phone allows up to ten
mobile phones or audio devices to be
linked to the system. Only one linked
(or paired) mobile phone and one
audio device can be used with the
system at a time.

Phone Button
The phone button on the
steering wheel is used to get
into the phone mode and
make calls, show recent,
incoming, outgoing calls, view phone
book etc. When you press the button
you will hear a beep. The beep is your
signal to give a command.
Voice Command Button
The voice command
button on the steering
wheel is only used for “barge
in” and when you are already
in a call and you want to send tones or
make another call.
The button on the steering wheel
is also used to access the voice
commands for the MTC+ Voice
Command features if your vehicle is
equipped.
The MTC+ System Phone is fully
integrated with the vehicle's audio
system. The volume of the MTC+
System Phone can be adjusted either
from the radio volume control knob or
from the steering wheel radio control
(right switch).
Operation
Voice commands can be used to
operate the MTC+ System Phone and
to navigate through its menu
structure. Voice commands are
required after most MTC+ System
Phone prompts. There are two general
methods for how voice command
works:
1. Say compound commands like “Call
John Smith mobile.”
2. Say the individual commands and
allow the system to guide you to
complete the task.
You will be prompted for a specific
command and then guided through
the available options.
• Prior to giving a voice command,
one must wait for the beep, which
follows the “Listen” prompt or
another prompt.
• For certain operations, compound
commands can be used. For example,
instead of saying “Call” and then
“John Smith” and then “mobile”,
the following compound command
can be said: “Call John Smith
mobile.”
• For each feature explanation in this
section, only the compound
command form of the voice
command is given. You can also
break the commands into parts and
say each part of the command when
you are asked for it. For example,
you can use the compound
command form voice command
“Search for John Smith,” or you can
break the compound command form
into two voice commands: “Search
Contact” and when asked “John
Smith.” Please remember, the MTC+
System Phone works best when you
talk in a normal conversational tone,
as if speaking to someone sitting a
few feet/metres away from you.
Natural Speech
Your MTC+ System Phone voice system
uses a natural language Voice
Recognition (VR) engine.
Natural speech allows the user to
speak commands in phrases or
complete sentences. The system filters
out certain non-word utterances and
sounds such as “ah” and “eh.” The
system handles fill-in words such as “I
would like to.”
The system handles multiple inputs in
the same phrase or sentence such as
“make a phone call” and “to Kelly
Smith.” For multiple inputs in the
same phrase or sentence, the system
identifies the topic or context and
MTC+ System Phone
8
91
provides the associated follow-up
prompt such as “Who do you want to
call?” in the case where a phone call
was requested but the specific name
was not recognised.
The system utilizes continuous
dialogue; when the system requires
more information from the user it will
ask a question to which the user can
respond without pushing the voice
command button on the steering
wheel.

MTC+ System Phone
8
98
Working with Automated
Systems
This method is used in instances where
one generally has to press numbers on
the mobile phone keypad while
navigating through an automated
telephone system.
You can use your MTC+ System Phone
to access a voice mail system or an
automated service, such as a paging
service or automated customer service
line. Some services require immediate
response selection. In some instances,
that may be too quick for use of the
MTC+ System Phone.
When calling a number with your
MTC+ System Phone that normally
requires you to enter in a touch-tone
sequence on your mobile phone
keypad, you can utilize the touch
screen or press the button and say
the word “Send” then the sequence
you wish to enter. For example, if
required to enter your PIN followed
with a pound, (3 7 4 6 #), you can
press the button and say, “Send 3 7
4 6 #”. Saying “Send” followed by a
number, or sequence of numbers, is
also to be used for navigating through
an automated customer service center
menu structure, and to leave a
number on a pager.
You can also send stored mobile
phonebook entries as tones for fast
and easy access to voice mail and
pager entries. To use this feature, dial
the number you wish to call and then
press the button and say for
example, “Send voicemail password”.
The system will prompt you to enter
the name or number and say the
name of the phonebook entry you
wish to send. The MTC+ System Phone
will then send the corresponding
phone number associated with the
phonebook entry, as tones over the
phone.
NOTE:
The first number encountered for
that contact will be sent. All other
numbers entered for that contact
will be ignored.
You may not hear all of the tones
due to mobile phone network
configurations. This is normal.
Some paging and voice mail systems
have system time out settings that
are too short and may not allow the
use of this feature.
Pauses, wait or other characters that
are supported by some phones are
not supported over Bluetooth
®
.
These additional symbols will be
ignored in the dialing a numbered
sequence.
Barge in - Overriding Prompts
The button can be used when you
wish to skip part of a prompt and
issue your voice command
immediately. For example, if a prompt
is asking "There are 2 numbers with
the name John. Say the full name"
you could press the button and
say, "John Smith" to select that option
without having to listen to the rest of
the voice prompt.
Voice Response Length
It is possible for you to choose
between “Brief” and “Detailed” voice
response length.
• Touch the “Settings” soft-key.
• Touch the “Display” soft-key, then
scroll down to “Voice Response
Length”.
• Select either “Brief” or “Detailed”
by touching the box next to the
selection. A check-mark will appear
to show your selection.
Phone and Network Status
Indicators
MTC+ System Phone will provide
notification to inform you of your
MTC+ System Phone
8

phone and network status when you
are attempting to make a phone call
using MTC+ System Phone. The status
is given for roaming, network signal
strength and phone battery strength.
Dialing using the Mobile Phone
Keypad
You can dial a phone number with
your mobile phone keypad and still
use the MTC+ System Phone (while
dialing via the mobile phone keypad,
the user must exercise caution and
take precautionary safety measures).
By dialing a number with your paired
Bluetooth
®
mobile phone, the audio
will be played through your vehicle's
audio system. The MTC+ System Phone
will work the same as if you dial the
number using voice command.
NOTE:
Certain brands of mobile phones do
not send the dial ring to the MTC+
System Phone to play it on the vehicle
audio system, so you will not hear it.
Under this situation, after successfully
dialing a number the user may feel
that the call did not go through even
though the call is in progress. Once
your call is answered, you will hear the
audio.
Mute/Un-Mute (Mute OFF)
When you mute the MTC+ System
Phone, you will still be able to hear the
conversation coming from the other
party, but the other party will not be
able to hear you. In order to mute the
MTC+ System Phone simply touch the
“Mute” soft-key on the “Phone” main
screen.
Advanced Phone
Connectivity

Things You Should Know
about MTC+ System
Phone
Voice Command
For the best performance:
• Always wait for the beep before
speaking.
• Speak normally, without pausing,
just as you would speak to a person
sitting in front of you, a few
metres/feet away from you.
• Ensure that no one other than you is
speaking during a voice command
period.
Performance is maximised under:
• Low-to-medium blower setting
• Low-to-medium vehicle speed
• Low road noise
• Smooth road surface
• Fully closed windows
• Dry weather condition
Even though the system is designed
for many languages and accents, the
system may not always work for some.
When navigating through an
automated system such as voice mail,
or when sending a page, before
speaking the digit string, make sure to
say “Send.”
NOTE:
It is recommended that you do not
store names in your favourites phone
book while the vehicle is in motion.
Phone book (mobile and favourites)
name recognition rate is optimised
when the entries are not similar. You
can say “O” (letter “O”) for “0” (zero).
Even though international dialling for
most number combinations is
supported, some shortcut dialling
number combinations may not be
supported.

reduced by lowering the in-vehicle
audio volume.
On versions with opening sunroof,
performance may be impaired when
the roof is open.
