General considerations
This vehicle, which complies with the NHTSA/EPA certification standards, is equipped with advanced technology and is capable of
achieving high performance levels.
It is equipped with sophisticated active and passive safety systems (described below). Unless otherwise and specifically provided for
by
Ferrari (see the Safety section) it is PROHIBITED to deactivate any safety system.
For proper driving, the following conditions must ALWAYS be met:
- The driver must be in good physical condition, and not under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
- The road regulations must be strictly observed.
- The common rules of caution must always be observed, in relation to the quality/performance of the vehicle, the places where you
are driving and the contingent situations.
Ferrari recommends reasonable and careful use of the vehicle. The driver MUST NEVER allow passengers to increase the risk
connected with driving (e.g., not using the safety systems, such as the seat belts) by failing to observe the mandatory safety rules
that apply to both the driver and the passengers. All occupants must wear their seat belts at all times!
The vehicle MAY NOT be modified or tampered with for any reason whatsoever, as this would affect the standards required for
certification and safety.
The owner of the vehicle is obliged to carefully maintain the vehicle in compliance with the recommended maintenance schedule.
The driver must always pay attention to the warnings signals in the vehicle, in particular to the dashboard warning lights. Even in
cases where the warning lights do not indicate a situation of immediate danger, the driver must always be careful and consider the
possible consequences of the malfunction and the type of information signaled.
Even in the event of routine operations, such as refueling, the driver must take all necessary precautions and check for any spilling
of flammable liquid. These precautions must be taken even if the operation is performed by others. Before starting off, always verify
that the door closing systems are functioning, not only by checking that the relative warning lights are off, but also by trying to
operate them by hand.
The driver must be fully knowledgeable with the vehicle and its controls, so as to handle and drive it as required. Knowledge of the
vehicle can be achieved/improved by attending the driving courses held by Ferrari, which are recommended.

Introduction
The names taken from the sports and racing world (e.g., F1, SPORT, RACE) only refer to the technology from which they derive or
to specific vehicle set-ups and they do not authorize the driver to behave improperly while driving.
These above only refers to some general issues that will be specifically dealt with in this Owner’s Manual.
FUELS CONTAINING ALCOHOL
For its fuel injection systems, Ferrari uses components and materials of very high quality. However, no specific tests have been
carried out to assure the reliability of the system when using fuel containing alcohol. Consequently, we recommend that our
customers do not use fuel containing alcohol on Ferrari vehicles.

Updating
The high quality level of the vehicle
is subject to constant technological
improvements. Therefore, there may be
differences between this manual and your
vehicle. The Authorized Ferrari Dealers
will be glad to provide you with all the
information about the updates.
All specifications and illustrations
contained in this manual refer to
those resulting as of the printing date.
Specifications may be changed without
prior notice.
Spare parts
We recommend you use genuine Ferrari
parts, which can be obtained from your
Authorized Ferrari Dealer
.
The Ferrari warranty may be voided if
repairs are performed using parts that
are not Genuine Ferrari Parts.
Warranty and Service Book
Each new vehicle comes equipped with a
“Warranty and Service Book”.
This contains the vehicle’s warranty
terms and conditions.
The Warranty and Service Book also
indicates when periodic service is due
according to the “MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULE”.
Vehicle event data
Your vehicle’s driving and safety systems
employ computers that monitor, and share
with each other, information about your
vehicle’s operation. One or more of these
computers may store what they monitor,
either during normal vehicle operation
or in a crash or near-crash event. Stored
information may be read and used by:
- Ferrari North America, Inc.
- Ferrari S.P.A.
- Service and repair facilities
- Law inforcement or government
agencies
- Others who may assert a legal right to
know, or who obtain your consent to
know such information.
“F1-SuperFast” gearbox
The vehicle may come equipped with
an electronically-controlled gearbox
system, controlled by means of the
levers on the steering wheel.
The default setting for the F1 gearbox
is always “AUTO” mode.
Every time the vehicle is started, the
F1 gearbox is in the “AUTO easy
exit” mode, unless the vehicle was in
AUTO” mode when it was turned off.
To exit the “AUTO easy exit” mode,
operate one of the levers UP and
DOWN
(when the vehicle is
moving) or
press the AUTO button on
the center console.
Even though the system can be used
in “AUTO” mode, it should not be
considered an automatic gearbox.
Therefore, for proper use always follow
the instructions given in this manual.
This new F1 gearbox generation reduces
overall gearshifting times. Using the
elastic power of the transmission devices,
through integrated electronic engine and
gearbox management, the F1-SuperFast
system enhances vehicle performance.
background

Introduction
The different gearshifting stages (torque
reduction and clutch disengagement,
gear disengagement and engagement and
subsequent clutch re-engagement) are
actuated in sequence.
This results in extremely fast gearshifting,
which is reduced to 100 ms (measured as
“acceleration gap”).
Environmental protection
The following chapter contains
useful information for environmental
protection.
Ferrari has designed and constructed a
vehicle using technologies, materials and
devices capable of reducing some of the
harmful impact on the environment.
Using your vehicle respecting the
environment will be your contribution
towards environmental protection.
Fuel consumption as well as engine,
gearbox, brake and tire wear mainly
depend on two factors:
- use of the vehicle
- driving style.
Both factors are influenced by the driver.
Use of the vehicle
- Avoid using the vehicle for short trips.
- Check that the tire pressure is correct.
- Proper periodic maintenance will
contribute to preserving your vehicle in
full working order and to protecting the
environment.
We therefore recommend that you
respect the service due dates indicated
in the “MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE”.
Driving style
- Do not accelerate during the starting
procedure.
- Do not warm up the engine when the
vehicle is stationary.
- Drive prudently and keep a proper
distance suited to the driving speed.
- Avoid sharp and frequent accelerations.
- Turn off the engine if the vehicle is kept
stationary for long periods of time.
- Shift gears using only 2/3 of the speed
permitted for each gear.
WARNINGWARNING
The vehicle is equipped with
emission control and monitoring
systems, which must always function
properly.
WARNINGWARNING
Engine exhaust, some of its
constituents, and certain vehicle
components contain or emit
chemicals known to the State of
California (CA) to cause cancer and
birth defects and reproductive harm.
In addition, certain fluids contained
in vehicles and certain products of
component wear contain or emit
chemicals known to the State of CA
to cause cancer and birth defects or
other reproductive harm.
Battery posts, terminals and related
accessories contain lead and lead
compounds. Wash your hands after
handling.
Used engine oil contains chemicals
that have caused cancer in laboratory
animals. Always protect your skin by
washing thoroughly with soap and
water.

This vehicle has been constructed in compliance with the federal environmental and safety standards.
Nevertheless, a few rules should be followed.
Particular attention must be paid to:
- Overheated components: high temperatures develop in the engine compartment in proximity of the exhaust system.
Do not park the vehicle on paper, grass, dry leaves or other flammable materials. They could catch fire if they come into contact
with hot parts of the exhaust system.
Do not fit additional heat shields or remove those fitted on the exhaust system.
Do not let flammable substances come into contact with the exhaust system.
- Moving parts on the vehicle, such as fan belts, etc. are always protected by appropriate systems.
Do not remove the guards or work on the moving parts without taking the due precautions.
- Pressurized systems on the vehicle, such as: the braking system, air conditioning and heating system, cooling system and
lubrication system, which may generate pressure internally.
Do not carry out any work which could cause gas or liquids to escape risking injury to persons and damage.
- Exhaust gas generated by the running engine may be hazardous, especially in closed spaces. As well as consuming oxygen, the
engine discharges carbon dioxide, carbon oxide and other toxic gases.
- The fuel is highly flammable and emits vapors which may be noxious if inhaled.
Do not use open flames or create sparks near the open fuel tank or in any other condition where fuel comes into contact with air.
- The oils used may also be flammable: take the same precautions as necessary for fuel.
- The fluid contained in the battery is poisonous, corrosive and flammable. Do not let it spill or come into contact with the skin,
eyes or objects. Do not use open flames or create sparks near the battery.

Alarm system
The Ferrari CODE system
The vehicle is equipped with an electronic
immobilizer system (Ferrari CODE
) which
is automatically activated when the
ignition key is removed.
The keys are equipped with an electronic
device which transmits a coded signal to
the Ferrari CODE ECU. Once this ECU
has recognized the signal, the engine can
be started.
This device complies with Part 15 of the
Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) Rules. Operation is subject to
the
following two conditions:
1) the device may not cause harmful
interference
2) the device must accept any
interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Any modifi cation to the equipement
not expressly authorized by the party
responsible for compliance could void
the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.

performing a self-diagnostic cycle. At
the fi rst opportunity, you can stop and
test the system: turn off the engine by
moving the ignition key to position
0,
then move the key back to position II
.
The CODE warning light A will
illuminate and should go off within

Emergency starting
If the Ferrari CODE is unable to
deactivate the immobilizer:
- the CODE
warning light remains
permanently on
- the OBD
warning light goes off after
four seconds and comes back on
immediately afterwards
- the engine does not start.
In this condition, the engine can only be
started with the emergency procedure.
We recommend you read the whole pro-
cedure carefully before performing it.
If you make a mistake during the
emergency procedure, turn the key to
position 0 and repeat the operation from
point 1.
1) Read the 5-digit electronic code found
on the CODE CARD.
2) Turn the key to position II: at this
point, the CODE and OBD warning
lights are on.
3) Fully depress and hold the accelerator
pedal. Approximately 8 seconds later,
the OBD warning light will go off.
Release the accelerator pedal and get
ready to count the number of times
the OBD warning light flashes.
4) As soon as the number of flashes is
equal to the first digit of your CODE
CARD,
depress the accelerator pedal
and hold it until the OBD warning
light goes off (after approximately 4
seconds), then release the accelerator
pedal.
5) The OBD warning light starts flashing
again. As soon as the number of flashes
is equal to the second digit of your
CODE CARD, depress the accelerator
pedal and hold it.
6) Follow the same procedure for the
remaining digits in the code on the
CODE CARD
.
7) When the last digit has been entered,
hold the accelerator pedal down. The

seconds and then goes off. You can
now release the accelerator pedal.
8) A quick flashing of the OBD warning
light (about 4 seconds) confirms that
the operation has been successful.
9) Start the engine.
If the OBD warning light remains on, turn
the key to
0 and repeat the procedure from
step 1.
This procedure can be repeated an
unlimited number of times.
After an emergency starting procedure, it
is advisable to contact your Authorized
Ferrari Dealer to solve the problem.
Otherwise, you will have to perform the
emergency starting procedure every time
the engine is started.

Electronic alarm
The electronic alarm system performs the
following functions:
- remote control for central door locking/
unlocking
- perimeter surveillance, detecting the
opening of doors and lids
- motion surveillance, detecting intrusion
into the passenger compartment
- vehicle movement surveillance.
Activation
To turn on the alarm system, press
button F on the key:
- the direction indicators fl ash once
- the system beeps
- the red LED on the dashboard ashes
- the central door locking system is
activated and the doors are locked.
The alarm system is activated after
approximately 25 seconds and the alarm
is triggered if:
- a door is opened
- the luggage compartment lid is opened
- the engine compartment lid is opened
- someone attempts to enter the vehicle
from a window
- the power supply is disconnected
- the siren is disconnected
- the vehicle is moved.
When the electronic alarm is activated, the
user may request opening of the luggage
compartment; in this case, the motion and
anti-lift sensors are temporarily
deactivated.
If the luggage compartment is then closed,
the sensors will be reactivated.
If the direction indicators and the red LED
on the dashboard ash 9 times when you
activate the alarm system: this means that
one of the doors or the front/rear lid is not
properly closed and therefore is not
protected by the perimeter surveillance.
Check for correct closing of the doors,
rear/front lid and close the open one
without deactivating the alarm system: the
direction indicators fl ashing once indicate
that now the door or the front/rear lid is
closed properly and is protected by the
perimeter surveillance.
If the direction indicators fl ash 9 times
when the alarm system is activated
with doors, rear and front lids properly
closed, it means that the self-diagnostic
feature has detected a malfunction in
the system. Contact your Authorized
Ferrari Dealer to have the system
checked.

WARNINGWARNING
The traction grade assigned to this tire
is based on straight-ahead braking
traction tests, and does not include
acceleration, cornering, hydroplaning, or
peak traction characteristics.
Temperature
The temperature grades are “A” (the
highest), “B, and “C.
Temperature grades represent the tire’s
resistance to the generation of heat and its
ability to dissipate heat under controlled
indoor test wheel conditions. Sustained
high temperature can cause the tire to
deteriorate and can reduce tire life. In
addition, excessive temperature can lead
to sudden tire failure. Grade “C
corresponds to a level of performance
which all tires installed on passenger
vehicles must meet under the Federal
Motor Safety Standard No. 109. Grades
B” and “A” represent higher levels of
performance on the laboratory test wheel
than the minimum required by law.
WARNINGWARNING
The temperature grade for this tire is
established for a tire that is properly
inflated and not overloaded. Excessive
speed, under-inflation, or excessive
loading, either separately or in
combination, can cause heat buildup
and possible tire failure.
Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a comparative
rating based on the wear rate of the tire
when tested under controlled conditions
on a prescribed government test course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would
wear one and one-half (1-1/2) times as
well on the government course as a tire
graded 100.
The relative performance of tires depends
upon the actual conditions of their use,
and may differ significantly from the norm
due to variations in driving habits, service
practices and differences in road
characteristics and climate. Check your
tires regularly for wear.
Traction
The traction grades, from highest to
lowest, are “AA, “A, “B, and “C.
These grades represent the tire’s ability to
stop on wet pavement under controlled
conditions on specified government test
surfaces of asphalt and concrete. Tires
marked “C” have poor traction
performance.

WARNINGWARNING
If you are going to use standard tires
on a vehicle that was originally
equipped with “Run Flat” tires, you
must contact your Authorized
Ferrari Dealer to have the
dashboard reprogrammed and to
prevent viewing warning messages
on the TFT display.

Run Flat type tires cannot be fi tted
on the 599 GTB Fiorano with the
HGTE package!
Run Flat tires (optional)
The vehicle can come equipped with
“Run flat” tires. This type of tire has a
reinforced side
B which allows the vehicle
to continue traveling at moderate speed
(50 mph - 80 km/h), even after a puncture,
for a specific distance .
The instrument panel receives the “tire
puncture” information from the tire
pressure monitoring ECU , which monitors
the residual tire life and displays a warning
in the dedicated area of the TFT display
after 30 mi (50 km).
After 60 mi (100 km), a message warning
the driver to stop the vehicle will be
displayed (see Tire pressure and
temperature monitoring systemon page 55).
WARNINGWARNING
Observing the recommended wheel
alignment values is essential in order
to obtain the best performance and
the longest life of these tires.

Seat belts
If used correctly, the seat belts, in
combination with the pretensioners, have
been designed to help protect the wearer
from a variety of impacts while fi rmly
securing the occupants within the
structure of the vehicle.
WARNINGWARNING
Ferrari urges you to use the seat
belts correctly fastened and adjusted
at all times!
WARNINGWARNING
Correct use of the seat belts can help
reduce the risk of serious injury in
the event of an accident.
WARNINGWARNING
All passengers must wear their seat
belts!
The seat belts are lap and shoulder seat
belts with automatic retractor and an
emergency inertia locking system on the
retractor unit, which is fi tted with a
pretensioner.
To help ensure optimal protection, keep
the seat backrest in the upright position,
make sure that your back is properly
resting on it and adjust the seat belt
correctly, fitting it closely across your
chest and pelvis.
The lap portion of the seat belt must be
fitted low across your pelvis, resting on
the pelvic bones. Take care that the lap
portion of the lap belt does not rest on
the abdomen, as this can result in an
increased risk of injuries. Adjust the seat
height to help keep the lap portion of the
belt low on the pelvis.
Do not pass the seat belts over sharp
edges. They could tear.
Do not attach or pin anything onto
the seat belts. This could reduce
their initial strength and cause them
to tear in the event of a crash.
Do not bring cutting edges in
contact with a seat belt. They may
get damaged and consequently
break in the event of a collision.
If a seat belt has been brought in
contact with a cutting edge, or has
been used to pin something on it,
have it immediately replaced at your
Authorized Ferrari Dealer.

Safety
Adjusting the seat belt height
- Press button A to release the adjustment
device and move it to the desired
position.
position.
- Always check that it is locked. The seat
belt is properly adjusted when it passes
about mid-way between the end of the
shoulder and the neck. The lower part
must fi t tightly across the pelvis and not
the abdomen.
Fastening the seat belts
Adjust the seat and seat backrest properly.
- Grip the buckle
B, slowly pull the belt
and insert the tang into its receptacle
C.
Should the belt lock while pulling it, let
it rewind slightly and then pull it again
without sharp movements.
- Make sure that it has clicked into place.
- Position the seat belt correctly: the lap
portion of the seat belt must rest low on
the pelvis, and lean onto the pelvic
bones.
Do not use any objects (e.g., spring
clips, locks, etc.) that hold the seat belt
away from your body.
- Pay attention that the lap portion of the
seat belt does not move up into the
abdomen.
- Avoid “slouching” positions, as this can
cause the lap portion of the seat belt to
move up to the abdominal region.
- The upper portion of the seat belt must
be adjusted so that it passes over the
shoulder, mid-way between the end of
the shoulder and the neck.
If the driver’s seat belt is not fastened,
when you turn the ignition key to
position II, the warning light D
illuminates.
background

If the passenger’s seat belt is not fastened
and the system detects the presence of an
adult in the passenger’s seat (according to
the Occupant Classifi cation System), a
warning will appear on the TFT display.
WARNINGWARNING
Do not allow children to be held on
a passenger’s lap using only one seat
belt for both of them.
In the event of a crash, the weight of
the adult would crush the child
against the seat belt.
This can result in serious injuries or
death for the child.
Unfastening the seat belts
- Push the release button E.
- Guide the seat belt buckle
B back to its
rest position.
Emergency tensioning device, seat
belt load limiter
The seat belts in this vehicle are equipped
with emergency tensioning devices (also
called “pretensioners”) and load limiters.
Pretensioners
The pretensioners are designed to activate
in the event of certain head-on collisions
of suffi cient force, or in a side collision of
suffi cient force. The seat belt will rewind
a small amount just before the restraining
action begins, thereby helping to ensure a
proper hold around the occupant’s body.
Activation of a pretensioner is signaled by
the illumination of the warning light A on
the instrument panel.

Safety
WARNINGWARNING
After activation, the pretensioner no
longer functions and cannot be
repaired, under any circumstances.
Contact your Authorized Ferrari
Dealer for replacement.
When a pretensioner is activated, a small
amount of smoke is released. This smoke
is not harmful and does not indicate the
presence of a fire.
WARNINGWARNING
All work on any part of the safety
system components must be
performed only by an Authorized
Ferrari Dealer.
It is not permitted to remove or make
modifications of any kind to the seat
belts, belt retractors and pretensioners.
Maintenance work involving strong
impacts, vibrations or heating of the
pretensioner area may activate them;
vibrations caused by road bumps will
not have this effect.
Activation of the pretensioners only
depends on the status of the seat belts
and is not affected by the occupants’
presence.
If the seat belt is not fastened, the
pretensioner will not activate, even if
the seat is occupied.
The seat belt is equipped with a load-
limiting device, which is designed to
reduce the restraining force exerted by
the seat belts on the occupant’s body
during a collision. This device controls the
force level with which the seat belt is
released during a collision.
Child safety
WARNINGWARNING
Never drive with a child in a
rearward-facing child seat in the
front seat if the "PASSENGER
AIRBAG OFF" warning light is not
illuminated. Airbag deployment can
cause serious injuries or death to a
child in a rearward-facing child seat.
WARNINGWARNING
Established legislation in some
countries already provides that
children under 12 years of age may
not travel in the front passenger seat.
WARNINGWARNING
Child seats may only be installed
with the seat fully lowered and
pushed backward.
Do not tamper with the seat belts or
child restraint systems.
Because of their size and shape, children
are at greater risk for injuries than adults.
Suitable restraint or safety systems must
be used.
All person whose physical characteristics
(e.g., height, weight) meet the limit values
provided by established legislation in each
country must be protected by
approved restraint or safety systems (i.e.,
certified child seats, cradles, and cushions).
In any case, you are advised to always use
certified child restraint systems bearing
the proper test marking.
WARNINGWARNING
Incorrect fastening of a child
restraint system increases the risk of
injury to the child in the event of a
collision.
- The seat belts in the vehicle have been
designed and tested to protect persons
weighing at least 79 lbs (36 Kg) and
taller than 59 in. (1.50 m).
- To properly protect any passengers
outside these limits, specific restraining
systems with dedicated belts or
accessories capable of adapting the
child’s position to the vehicle’s seat belts
must be fitted.

For installation and use of a child restraint
system, always follow the instructions that
the manufacturer of the devices is
required to supply.
Always follow the instructions supplied
with the child restraint system precisely.
Keep the instructions in the vehicle
together with the documents and this
manual. Never use second-hand child
seats which are not provided with
instructions for use.
In case of an accident, replace the child seat.
The passenger-side seat belt in this vehicle
is equipped with special retractors to help
properly fasten a child restraint. To install a
child restraint, pull the seat belt out
completely. The retractor will now only
allow the seat belt rewinding and will not
allow the seat belt to be pulled out.
Follow the instructions on the child
restraining system for proper installation in
the vehicle.
Check that the seat belt locking
mechanism has been activated by trying to
pull out a small amount of seat belt with
moderate force. If the system has been
activated, this should not be possible.
To deactivate this feature, release the seat
belt buckle and allow the seat belt to
retract completely.
WARNINGWARNING
Always deactivate this feature prior
to using the seat belt for normal use.
Having the retractor locked can be
dangerous when the seat belt is used
for directly restraining a passenger.
If you must, in an emergency situation,
carry a child in a rearward-facing child
seat in the front passenger seat:
- adjust the seat to the most rearward
position (avoiding contact with the
interior)
- adjust the headrest to the lowest
possible position
- install the child seat when the key is in
the 0 position, following the instructions
provided with the child seat

Installing a child seat with the key in
position II can result in induced
injuries.
- the extra weight applied on the seat
during child seat installation might delay
correct occupant classifi cation if the child
seat is mounted with the key in position II

WARNINGWARNING
Children must always be seated in
a child restraint system specifically
designed for their size, and must be
properly restrained.
WARNINGWARNING
Unrestrained occupants, including
children, can be propelled against
the dashboard or the windshield by
hard braking and by crash forces.
This can result in serious injuries or
death.
WARNINGWARNING
Do not tamper with seat belts or
child restraint systems.
Established legislation in some
countries already provides that
children under 12 years of age may not
travel in the front passenger seat.
WARNINGWARNING
The ignition key must always be
turned to position 0 when installing a
child seat on the front passenger seat.
Transport of persons with disability
If it is necessary to modify the advanced
airbag system of your vehicle to
accomodate a person with disabilities,
contact your
Authorized Ferrari Dealer.
WARNINGWARNING
The advanced airbag system of your
vehicle is not designed to protect
adults with disability that require
deactivation of the passenger’s or
driver’s airbag.
WARNINGWARNING
If you or another occupant is an
adult with a medical condition that
requires airbag deactivation, please
contact your Authorized Ferrari
Dealer.
WARNINGWARNING
As long as the airbag is activated,

Airbag
WARNINGWARNING
The airbag is not a substitute for the
seat belts. Correct use of the seat
belts, in combination with the
airbag, will offer protection for the
driver and passenger in the front
seats in the event of a head-on
collision.
WARNINGWARNING
Front airbags cannot offer protection
in side crashes, certain front-angular
crashes, roll over events or in
secondary impacts (if a second crash
happens after the airbags have been
deployed in a previous crash). The
seat belts are designed to help
reduce the risk of injuries in roll
over events and secondary front
impacts.
A properly fastened seat belt is
needed to help protect occupants in
roll over events and secondary front
impacts.
WARNINGWARNING
Front airbags are designed to not be
deployed in low severity frontal
crashes. The seat belts can help
reduce injuries in low severity
crashes. A properly fastened seat belt
is needed to help protect the
occupants in low severity frontal
crashes.
Airbag system components
The airbag system is composed of two
cushions that are designed to infl ate
almost instantaneosly. One A, is on the
driver side, in the center of the steering
wheel, and the other B on the passenger
side, inside the dashboard.
B
A
When the ignition key is turned to
position II, the warning light C
illuminates. If no malfunctioning is
detected, it will go off after 4
seconds. If the warning light does
not illuminate, if it remains on or if it
illuminates while driving, contact
your Authorized Ferrari Dealer
immediately.
background
42
Operation
The airbags are controlled by an ECU
that is designed to activate them in the
event of certain head-on collisions of
sufficient force.
In the case of a collision with an impact
force that causes deceleration exceeding
the value set for the internal sensor, the
ECU will transmit a signal to deploy the
airbags. The airbags will begin to inflate,
breaking the cover along the breakage line
and will deploy completely in a few
hundredths of a second. Once deployed,
they will serve as protection between the
driver and/or passenger and the structures
that could cause injury.
The airbags deflate immediately
afterwards.
The passenger airbag deployment is
further influenced by the occupant’s
weight, as determined by the Occupant
Classification System (see also page 50 for
more details about the Occupant
Classification System).
If the front passenger is classified as being
a child by the Occupant Classification
System, the passenger airbag will never
deploy, no matter how high the crash
severity.
It is possible that the driver’s airbag is
deployed in a crash, and the passenger’s
airbag is not deployed. This could
happen if the front passenger is
classified as a child by the Occupant
Classification System (see also page 50
for more details about the Occupant
Classification System).
WARNINGWARNING
The driver and passenger are both
advised not to travel handling objects
(e.g., beverage cans or bottles, pipes,
etc.) that could cause injury in the
case of airbag deployment.
When the system is activated, gases are
released in the form of fumes, together
with the gas used for inflating the
airbags.
These gases are not harmful. The
presence of smoke is not indicative of a
fire.
WARNINGWARNING
Always drive with your hands on the
rim of the steering wheel so that, in
case of activation, the airbag can
deploy without obstruction.
Driving with your hands inside the
steering wheel rim or on the airbag
cover increases the risk of injury for
your wrists and arms.
WARNINGWARNING
The driver and passenger must
always fasten their seat belts and sit
in an upright position, as far as
possible away from the airbag, in
order to help ensure protection in all
types of collision.
WARNINGWARNING
Always keep the backrest of your seat
in the upright position and sit with
your back properly resting against it.
Do not modify the system components
or wiring, under any circumstances.
WARNINGWARNING
With the ignition key inserted and in
position II, although the engine is off,
the airbags can still be activated when
the vehicle is stationary if it is hit by a
moving vehicle.
Thus, even with the vehicle
stationary, do not put children in the
front seat. In addition, remember that
if the ignition key is in position 0,
none of the safety devices (airbags or
pretensioners) will be activated in the
event of a collision. Failure of the
airbags to inflate in these
circumstances is not indicative of a
system malfunction.
WARNINGWARNING
Therefore, even with the vehicle
stationary, do not allow children to
sit on the front seat.

Safety
Do not cut or tamper with the
connectors of the airbag harness or on
the airbag modules.
WARNINGWARNING
Never place an object over or near
the airbag covers.
In the event that the airbags are
deployed, these objects would be
projected into the passenger
compartment at very high speed. The
object will be transformed into a
projectile propelled in the passenger
compartment. This could cause
serious injuries.
WARNINGWARNING
Never modify the airbag modules. Do
not damage the airbag modules (for
example pinning something onto
them or pressing objects against their
covers).
If, for any reason, an airbag cover gets
damaged, have the airbag module
immediately checked by your
Authorized Ferrari Dealer.
Activation of a damaged module
could cause serious or fatal injuries.
Never remove the steering wheel. If
necessary, this procedure should only
be performed by an Authorized Ferrari
Dealer.
All the airbag system components must
be replaced after an accident that
caused airbag deployment.
Following an accident not involving
airbag deployment, contact your
Authorized Ferrari Dealer to have the
system checked and any system
components that may be damaged or
malfunctioning replaced.
WARNINGWARNING
Damaged or defective components of
the airbag system cannot be repaired
and must be replaced.
Improper operations performed on
the system components may cause
failures or accidental deployment of
the airbags with consequent damage
and injury, even fatal.
The airbag system components have
been specially designed only for this
specifi c vehicle model. Do not use them
on a different vehicle model, as this
may cause serious damage and
consequent injury, even fatal, to the
occupants in the event of an accident.
To scrap the vehicle, please contact
your Authorized Ferrari Dealer to
have the airbag system deactivated
and disposed of properly.
If the vehicle has been stolen or there
has been an attempted theft, have the
airbag system checked by an
Authorized Ferrari Dealer.
The airbag modules must be replaced
at the intervals indicated in the
“Warranty and Service Book” EVEN
if the vehicle was NOT involved in a
collision.
The label E , on the right-hand side of the
dashboard, bears the airbag system
expiration date. When this expiration date
is approaching, contact your Authorized
Ferrari Dealer in order to have the
system replaced.
background
44
The label F on the dashboard can be
removed.
The labels G and H indicate the presence
of the airbag system.
Side Airbag
WARNINGWARNING
The airbags are not a substitute for
the seat belts. Correct use of the seat
belts, with the supplementary action
of the side bags, will provide
protection in the event of a lateral
collision.
Side bag system components
WARNINGWARNING
The side bag fi tted on the vehicle
was not designed to reduce the risk
of being hurled out in the event of
vehicle roll-overs.
Your vehicle is equipped with 2 side bags,
one in the driver-side door A, and the
other one in the passenger-side door.
Each side bag is composed of a cushion,
wich has been designed to deploy almost
instantaneously in order to protect the
occupant’s head in the event of a side
impact.
When the ignition key is turned to

Safety
Operation
The side bags are controlled by a
dedicated ECU that has been designed to
activate them when a lateral collision of a
suf cient force occurs.
In the event of a side collision with an
impact force exceeding the limit set by the
ECU, this will transmit a signal for
activating the pretensioner and the side
bag on the impact side. The airbag will
start infl ating, opening its cover along the
breakage line, until it is fully deployed (in
a few hundredths of a second).
After deployment, the airbag will be
positioned as a protection between the
driver’s or passenger’s head and the
external structures which could go through
the passenger compartment and cause
injury. The airbags defl ate immediately
afterwards.
The side bag activation is not affected by
the front passenger’s height or weight. The
side bag has been designed to activate
whenever the airbag ECU detects a
collision of a suffi cient impact force for
deployment.
WARNINGWARNING
Never travel with your head leaning
out of the window, as your head and
neck would be in the airbag
activation area. In the event of a side
collision, this position would increase
the risk of being hurled out of the
vehicle and would compromise the
protective action of the side bags.
WARNINGWARNING
Never place an object over or near
the airbag covers.
In the event that the airbags are
deployed, these objects would be
projected into the passenger
compartment at very high speed. The
object will be transformed into a
projectile propelled in the passenger
compartment. This could cause
serious injuries.
Never modify the airbag modules.
Do not damage the airbag modules
(for example pinning something
onto them or pressing objects
against their covers).
If, for any reason, an airbag cover
gets damaged, have the airbag
module immediately checked by
your Authorized Ferrari Dealer.
Activation of a damaged module
could cause serious or fatal injuries.
Please consider that the airbag ECU is
not capable of automatically detecting
damages involving the airbag covers.
Do not cover the upper part of the
driver-door and passenger-door panels
with adhesive tape or material and do
not treat them in any way.
Never remove the door panel. If
required, this operation must be
performed by your Authorized Ferrari
Dealer.

WARNINGWARNING
Following activation, the airbag
components can no longer perform
their protective action; therefore,
they cannot be repaired and must be
replaced. After activation of a side
bag, have it replaced by your
Authorized Ferrari Dealer
.
WARNINGWARNING
The airbag modules must be
replaced at the intervals indicated in
the “Warranty and Service Book”
EVEN if the vehicle was NOT
involved in a collision.
The label E, on the right-hand side of
the dashboard, bears the airbag system
expiration date. When this expiration
date is approaching, contact your
Authorized Ferrari Dealer in order to
have the system replaced.
Advanced Airbag System
The system includes:
- a 3-point seat belt (lap and shoulder
seat belt) at each seating position,
equipped with a pretensioner, an energy
management system and a seat belt
sensor, which detects when the seat belt

- a dual stage driver’s airbag at the driver
position, located within the steering
wheel (see also page 41)
- a dual stage passenger’s airbag at the
front passenger position, located on top
of the dashboard (see also page 41)
- two remote acceleration sensors, located
in the engine compartment
- a control unit, located on the center
console, in the passenger compartment
- an Occupant Classifi cation System for
the front passenger, located underneath
the passenger seat, including 4 sensors
and a control unit (see also page 50)
- a readiness indicator (red warning light

disable passenger airbag deployment if
nobody is traveling in the front
passenger seat or if an object is placed
on top of it.
The passenger airbag status can be
monitored by checking the “PASSENGER
AIRBAG OFF
” warning light B. This
warning light will be illuminated if
passenger airbag deployment is disabled,
and will be turned off if passenger airbag
deployment is enabled.
Do not carry adults in the front
passenger seat if the “PASSENGER
AIRBAG OFF
” warning light is
illuminated, as the passenger airbag
will not deploy in a frontal crash,
thus reducing the system’s ability to
protect the occupant.
Do not carry children in rearward-
facing child seats in the front
passenger seat if the “PASSENGER
AIRBAG OFF

illuminated, as the passenger airbag
could deploy in a frontal crash,
seriously injuring or killing the child.
background
48
The system components are designed to
work together to help provide the
occupant with the most appropriate
protection level, based on crash severity
and front passenger classification:
- The Occupant Classification System will
attempt, based on the weight resting on
the seat, to classify the front passenger
either as a child (see also page 50 for
more details about the Occupant
Classification System), for which airbag
deployment is not appropriate, as it can
result in serious injuries and death, or
an adult (see also page 50 for more
details about the Occupant Classification
System), for which deployment is
appropriate depending on the crash
severity.
The classification system will then
transmit the occupant classification to
the control unit, that will use the
information to enable or disable
passenger airbag deployment (see also
page 50 for more details about the
Occupant Classification System).
- In the event of certain frontal crashes,
the electronic control unit will use the
signal from the remote acceleration
sensors, from the Occupant
Classification System and from the seat
belt sensor to supplement its internal
sensing capabilities. The control unit is
designed to use this signal to determine
whether airbag deployment and
pretensioner activation are required.
- For frontal crashes, based on the angle
and severity of the crash and on the
front passenger classification, the airbag
control unit is designed to determine
whether to or not to:
deploy the airbags
deploy the airbags in low energy mode
deploy the airbags in high energy mode.
- For low severity crashes, the airbag
control unit will not deploy the airbags.
- For crashes of higher severity, the
control unit will deploy the driver airbag
in low energy mode and will use the
signal from the Occupant Classification
System to determine whether to deploy
the passenger airbag in low energy
mode or not to deploy the airbag (if the
front passenger is classified as child it
will not deploy the airbag. If the front
passenger is classified as adult it will
deploy the airbag) (see also page 50 for
more details about the Occupant
Classification System).
- For crashes of even higher severity, the
control unit will deploy the driver airbag
in high energy mode and will use the
signal from the Occupant Classification
System to determine whether to deploy
the passenger airbag in high energy
mode or not to deploy the airbag (if the
front passenger is classified as child it
will not deploy the airbag. If the front
passenger is classified as “adult” it will
deploy the airbag).
If the airbags are deployed, the seat
belt pretensioner will also be activated
for every seating position where the
seat belt is fastened.
The airbag control unit will use the
seat belt status indicated by the seat
belt status sensor in order not to
activate the seat belt pretensioner for
the seating position where the seat belt
is not fastened.
The control unit is also designed to
perform a check of all the electrical
components in the system (including a
self check) upon ignition and periodically
thereafter, until the engine is turned off.

Safety
Upon ignition, the “airbag” red warning
light in the instrument panel illuminates
for a few seconds, to confirm the warning
light functionality (see page 41).
Whenever the control unit detects a fault
in the system, it will illuminate the “airbag”
red warning light in the instrument panel,
to inform the driver that there may be a
system malfunction.
If:
the “airbag” warning light does not
illuminate at key on (ignition key in
position II)
or
the “airbag” warning light does not turn
off a few seconds after key ON
or
the “airbag” warning light illuminates
while the vehicle is in motion
carefully stop the vehicle in a safe place
and contact your Authorized Ferrari
Dealer immediately.
When the “airbag” warning light is
illuminated, the system functionality
may be compromised or disabled.
Improper repair work on the Advanced
Airbag System or one of its
components can render the system
inoperative, or cause unintended
airbag deployment. Work on the
Advanced Airbag System must only be
performed by qualified technicians.
Please contact your Authorized
Ferrari Dealer for repair work on the
Advanced Airbag System of your
vehicle.
Fastening your seat belts is always
necessary, even with advanced airbags.
Front airbags do not substitute the seat
belts. The front airbags are designed to
help increase the efficiency of the seat
belts and supplement the protection
offered by the seat belts in medium to
high severity frontal crashes.
The seat belts must be properly worn
and fastened in order to offer
protection. Refer to page 34 for proper
use of the seat belts.
WARNINGWARNING
Never place an object over or near
the driver’s or passenger’s airbags. In
the event that the airbag is deployed,
it will project any object over it, or
near it, in the passenger
compartment at very high speed. The
object will be transformed into a
projectile propelled in the passenger
compartment. This could cause
serious injuries.
WARNINGWARNING
Seat belts are designed to help
minimize injury severity in the event
of an accident. To help achieve
optimal protection for adults, the
airbags should supplement the seat
belts. Always wear your seat belts
properly fastened.
WARNINGWARNING
Front airbags cannot offer protection
in side crashes, certain front-angular
crashes, roll over events or in
secondary impacts (if a second crash
happens after the airbags have been
deployed in a previous crash). The
seat belts are designed to help
reduce the risk of injuries in roll
over events and secondary front
impacts. A properly fastened seat
belt is needed to help protect
occupants in roll over events and
secondary front impacts.
background
50
WARNINGWARNING
Front airbags are designed to not be
deployed in low severity frontal
crashes. The seat belts can help
reduce injuries in low severity
crashes. A properly fastened seat belt
is needed to help protect occupants
in low severity frontal crashes.
WARNINGWARNING
To help ensure protection in the
event of a collision, you must be in a
normal seated position with your
back against the seat backrest. The
passenger’s feet must be on the
footrest. The driver’s left foot must be
on the footrest.
WARNINGWARNING
Adjust your seat as far back as
possible, ensuring you can operate
the vehicle controls properly and
comfortably. Keep your hands on the
steering wheel rim, without crossing
them. Placing your hands or arms
inside the rim increases the risk of
hand/arm injuries in the event of a
crash with driver’s airbag deployment.
WARNINGWARNING
Never place your feet on the
dashboard or the instrument panel or
out of the window, as this will
seriously affect the ability of the
system to protect you in the event of
a crash, and can result in induced
injuries in the event of airbag
deployment.
Occupant Classification System
The Occupant Classification System is
designed to (see also page 42):
disable passenger airbag deployment if a
child that is lighter and smaller than a
typical one-year old child (up to 20.1 lbs
- 9.1 kg and 26 in. - 66 cm) is traveling in
a rearward-facing child seat (see note 1
on page 50) mounted on the front
passenger seat
enable passenger airbag deployment if an
adult (weighing more than a 103 lbs -
46.7 kg) is sitting on the front passenger
seat
disable or enable passenger airbag
deployment if a child heavier than a
typical one-year old child is seated on the
front passenger seat

WARNINGWARNING
Adults should not travel in the front
passenger seat if the “PASSENGER
AIRBAG OFF” warning light is
illuminated.
WARNINGWARNING
Children in a rearward-facing child seat
must not travel in the front passenger
seat if the “PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF”
warning light is not illuminated.
Install child seats always when the ignition
key is in position
0 (electrical system off).
WARNINGWARNING
Installing a child seat with the
ignition key in position II can result
in induced injuries.
The extra weight applied on the seat
during child seat installation might delay
correct occupant classifi cation if the
child seat is mounted with the ignition
key in position II
.
After turning the key to ON, the Occupant
Classifi cation System will continuously
attempt to classify every object or person
on the front passenger seat in one of two
categories: “Child” (for which passenger
airbag deployment is dangerous and must
be disabled) or “Adult” (for which
passenger airbag deployment is benefi cial
and must be provided). Occupants or
objects lighter than a typical one-year old
child sitting on a child seat (including an
empty seat) will be classifi ed as “child”.
Occupants or objects heavier than a
typical one-year old child will be classifi ed
as “adult”.
If the Occupant Classifi cation System
identifi es the front passenger as a child,
passenger airbag deployment will be
disabled and the “PASSENGER AIRBAG
OFF” warning light, A, on the roof panel
will be illuminated.
If the Occupant Classifi cation System
identifi es the front passenger as an
“adult”, passenger airbag deployment will
be enabled and the “PASSENGER
AIRBAG OFF
” warning light, A, will not
be illuminated.
The system does not disable the front
passenger seat belt pretensioner (also
known as emergency tensioning
device).
The system does not disable the front
passenger side bag.
When the key is turned to ON, the system
will require a few seconds to classify the
passenger on the front seat. As long as the
system is in the process of classifying the
occupant, the default setting will be child,
to avoid the risk of injuring a child during
this time.
If the Occupant Classifi cation System
identifi es a change in the classifi cation of
the front passenger after the vehicle is
started (for example, if the driver stops
without turning off the engine to allow a
front passenger to get in or get out), the
system will update the passenger airbag
status and the “PASSENGER AIRBAG
OFF” warning light status accordingly.
background
52
Please note that the system may take a few
seconds to update the front passenger
classifi cation when the passenger status
changes.
If the Occupant Classifi cation System
recognizes an internal error, it will signal
the airbag control unit that there may be
a malfunction, and the control unit will
attempt to:
• illuminate the “airbag” red warning light
on the instrument panel
• disable passenger airbag deployment to
avoid the risk of injuring a child, lacking
a certain occupant classifi cation
• illuminate the “PASSENGER AIRBAG
OFF
” warning light on the roof panel.
Please note that when the “airbag”
warning light is illuminated, there may
be an error also in the central control
unit, and the system might not be able
to perform as designed.
Driving carefully, stop the vehicle in a
safe place and contact your Authorized
Ferrari Dealer immediately if the
“airbag” red warning light on the
instrument panel illuminates.
The system’s ability to classify the
occupant in the correct class can be
reduced if:
1. An adult transfers part of his/her
weight onto other objects other than
the seat, e.g.,:
- by leaning on the armrest
- by leaning on the center console
- by putting his/her feet on the
dashboard or out of the window
- by leaning on a headrest.
2. An object is tucked underneath the
seat or behind it.
3. An object is tucked between the seat
and the center console, or between the
seat and the door panel.
4. An adult is extremely light (less than
102.9 lbs - 46.7 kg).
5. A child has outgrown the weight for
which rearward-facing child seats are
appropriate.
6. An object is stored behind the
passenger seat and contacts the seat.
7. Weight is placed on the front
passenger seat.

background
54
ABS
This is a safety device which is designed
to activate in order to help prevent wheel
locking if the driver depresses the brake
pedal too sharply, especially under poor
grip conditions.
The system is composed of:
- an electro-hydraulic unit
- an electronic brake-force distributor
(EBD)
- four speed sensors on the wheels,
incorporated in the bearings.
These features add to the vehicle’s
standard braking system, without
changing its characteristics.
When the ABS is activated, during
emergency braking or under poor grip
conditions, the driver will perceive a
“pulsation” of the brake pedal. Hold the
brake pedal pressed to continue the
braking action.
When one of the wheels starts locking, the
hydraulic control unit controls the braking
system by running a 3-phase cycle:
- reduction (if necessary)
- maintenance
- pressure increase in the hydraulic circuit.
If braking with ABS activation occurs,
these adjustment phases will be repeated
in cycles until the vehicle comes to a stop
or the pressure on the pedal decreases.
In addition, the system offers the
following advantages:
- driving stability (no skidding), even in
the event of sharp braking approaching
wheel locking.
- maneuverability (no side-skidding on
sharp turns).
This means that even when an emergency
situation requires sudden braking, the
driver can avoid obstacles, or brake on a
curve, without affecting the vehicle
stability.
WARNINGWARNING
The ABS system features remain
unaltered as long as the speed limit
for the tire side grip is not exceeded.
When this limit is exceeded, vehicle
skidding cannot be avoided.
- Optimal braking distance:
depending on the type of road surface,
the braking distance may be reduced by
as much as 40%.
WARNINGWARNING
The ABS system does NOT exempt
the driver from driving carefully and
responsibly at all times.
The ABS system cannot compensate
for driving at speeds that are
excessively high for certain traffic or
road surface conditions, worn tires,
worn components in the braking
system or driving errors.
The ABS system has been designed for
the sole purpose of assisting the driver in
controlling braking under extreme
conditions, in which he could instinctively
cause the wheels to lock.
CST
CST is Ferrari’s acronym for Stability and
Traction Control. The CST is composed of
two main systems:
VDC Vehicle Dynamics Control,
performed through the braking
system and engine torque
F1-Trac Traction control, performed
through engine torque
modulation, depending on
maximum grip on the road
and of secondary systems that are always
active, such as the ABS, EBD, etc.
To help provide optimal control in different
driving and grip conditions, four different
setting levels have been designed:
background
55
8
7
6
5
4
3
2
1
Safety
- Level 1: helps ensure stability and
maximizes traction on every type of road
surface, both in low (“Manettino” set to
Low Grip position) and very low
(“Manettino” set to ICE) grip conditions,
by means of engine and brake control (in
this condition, the standard ASR system
activates instead of the F1-Trac function).
- Level 2: helps ensure stability and
maximizes traction only in dry- to high-
grip conditions (“Manettino” set to
SPORT) optimizing engine and brake
control.
- Level 3: enhances the racing features of
the vehicle, helps provide but does not
ensure a good level of stability
(“Manettino” set to RACE) by reducing
engine control to a minimum and making
the best use of brake control.
WARNINGWARNING
RACE mode must be used only on
race tracks.
- Level 4: CST off (position
).
Stability is not ensured, but all the other
features always present in the other
settings, such as the ABS and EBD,
remain active. When the brake pedal is
depressed, the VDC system reactivates.
When the brake pedal is relased, the
VDC system
deactivates.
F1-Trac
F1-Trac is directly derived from Ferrari’s
expertise in F1 vehicles. This system is
designed to optimize traction by
controlling engine power delivery.
F1-Trac
is faster and more accurate than
the traditional control systems, and is
capable of delaying and minimizing
engine torque adjustments, in order to
help ensure the desired trajectory.
The system estimates the maximum
available grip in advance, by continuously
monitoring the relative wheel speed and
using an auto-adaptive operation logic.
Comparing this information with the
vehicle dynamics model stored in the
control system, F1-Trac optimizes the
vehicle behavior by controlling engine
torque delivery.
F1-Trac does not work when the
"Manettino" is set to CST off.
Tire pressure and temperature
monitoring system
The vehicle is equipped with a system that
monitors the tire pressure and
temperature by means of special sensors
secured inside the wheel rims, in position
with the inflation valve. These sensors
transmit a signal that is detected by the
antennas on the car body, behind the
gravel guards, that are connected to the
ECU.
The system can momentarily
experience radio-electric interference
emitted by devices using similar
frequencies.
The ECU processes this information and
transmits, via the CAN line, a series of tire
pressure and temperature data as well as
any system errors to the instrument panel.
The signal transmitted by the ECU
activates some symbols on the TFT display,
with two priority levels: a soft warning
(SW) if the pressure reduction in relation
to the rated pressure is greater than 2.9
psi (0.2 bar), and a hard warning (HW) if
it is greater than 5.8 psi (0.4 bar) or if
there is a dynamic reduction of over 2.9
psi (0.2 bar/min.)
background
56
The calibration button is positioned on
the inside roof panel (see page 94).
After tire replacement or infl ation, the
system must be calibrated using the
relative button on the roof panel.
WARNINGWARNING
The system warns the driver that the
tire pressure has decreased. However,
this does NOT exempt the driver
from periodically checking that the
tires are infl ated to the indicated
pressure.
In addition, the system is UNABLE to
warn the driver of sudden damage to
the tires caused by external objects/
agents (e.g., nails, stones, etc.).
Viewing messages on the “TFT” display
By pressing the DISP
button or using the
Menu function, the driver can access the
TIRES information screen page, which
shows the pressure and temperature
values for each tire, as in the following
example 1.
The TFT does not display any warning
messages related to tire temperature.

Starting and driving the vehicle
(F1 gearbox)
System starting
When the ignition key is turned to posi-
tion II the gear display and all its seg-
ments, as well as the relative failure warn-
ing light illuminate. The warning light will
turn off if no problems are detected with-
in a few seconds.
The gear currently engaged will remain
highlighted on the display.

When the driver-side door is opened,
the system pump may activate for
several seconds. This function allows
the system to be ready for operation
when the ignition key is inserted.
The failure warning light may also
ash for a short time (10 sec.) and
then turn off: the system completes the
“start-up” phase and will then start
functioning normally. Avoid entering
any commands in the system during
this stage.
WARNINGWARNING
If the failure warning light continues
ashing without going off, deactivate
the system and restart it. If the
failure persists, contact an
Authorized Ferrari Dealer
to have
the necessary checks performed.
If the warning light remains on, it means
that there is a system failure. This
condition will also be indicated by an
acoustic alarm when the ignition key is
turned to position II.
Contact your Authorized Ferrari
Dealer to have the malfunction
identifi ed and corrected.
Operation with the engine off
The default setting for the F1 gearbox
is always “AUTO” mode.
Every time the vehicle is started, the
F1 gearbox is in “AUTO easy exit”
mode, unless the gearbox was in
AUTO” mode when the engine was
turned off (see page 106).
To exit “AUTO easy exit” mode,
operate one of the levers UP and
DOWN (when the vehicle is moving)
or
press the AUTO button on the
center console.
Once the “System start-up” phase has
been completed, the gear engaged will
appear on the display:
N (Neutral)
R (Reverse gear)
1 (1st gear)
2 (2nd gear), etc.
If the indication fl ashes (this may also
occur in N), the gear is not properly
engaged or disengaged. Request N and
then the desired gear.
WARNINGWARNING
If a horizontal dash appears on the
display, there is a system failure.
When the engine is off, 1st gear, reverse
gear R and neutral N can be engaged.
Holding the brake pedal depressed
during the request, proceed as follows:
N: pull both the levers located behind the
steering wheel.


R: press button R on the center console.
1st gear: pull the UP lever towards the

R
background
102
WARNINGWARNING
Hold button R down, until the letter
R appears on the display.
Release the UP and DOWN levers and
the button R soon after the gear
engaged is shown on the display.
Continued operation may activate the
failure warning light (see page 92) and
the acoustic alarm.
Do not operate the system with the
engine off, to prevent discharging the
battery.
Also avoid unnecessary gearshifting
when the engine is off, in order to
prevent the system pump from
overheating.
If the engine compartment lid is open
or not properly closed, none of the
gears can be engaged.
When the vehicle is stationary, with the
driver-side door open or not properly
closed and the brake pedal released,
the system disengages the gear
engaged after approximately two
seconds.
Starting and warming up the engine
(F1 gearbox)
- Ensure that the handbrake is engaged
and that the doors are closed.
- It is advisable to keep the brake pedal
pressed when starting the engine.
- Do not push the accelerator pedal.
- Turn the ignition key to position II and
wait until the words Check OK are
viewed on the TFT display. If the words
Check OK do not appear, turn the key
back to position
0, wait a few seconds
and repeat the procedure.
- The vehicle is always started in “AUTO
easy exit” mode, unless it was turned off
with the gearbox in “AUTO” mode.
- Press the ENGINE START
button and
release it as soon as the engine starts. Do
not hold the ENGINE START button
down for a long time.
- After the engine has started, the words
ENGINE ON will be displayed.
Do not hold the ENGINE START button
down for a long time.
If the engine does not start, turn the key
back to position 0 and wait until the gear
display turns off before repeating the
procedure.
Hold the brake pedal down while
starting the engine.

If the engine fails to start after several
attempts, check for one of the following
causes:
- insuffi cient speed of the starter motor
(dead battery)
- ignition device faulty
- electrical contacts faulty
- fuel pump fuses blown.
Do not run the engine at high speeds
until the engine oil temperature has
reached at least 149–158 °F (65÷70 °C),
approximately.
Driving the vehicle (F1 gearbox)
With the engine started, the vehicle
stationary and the brake pedal pushed,
pull the right-hand UP lever towards the
steering wheel to engage 1st gear.
WARNINGWARNING
Use 1st gear for parking or for
starting uphill.
Release the brake pedal and press the
accelerator to start off.
As soon as a gearshift is requested (with
the vehicle in motion) using the levers UP
or DOWN, the system will exit the “AUTO
easy exit” mode.
R
With the engine on and the vehicle
stationary, you can shift directly from 1st to
R by pressing button R on the center
console, and from reverse to 1st gear by
pulling the UP lever towards the steering
wheel.
When reverse gear is engaged, an
acoustic safety signal beeps
intermittently for the entire time that R
remains engaged.
If the system automatically engages 2nd
gear when shifting from R to 1st gear,
jamming has occurred on
1st gear.
Therefore, this is not a malfunction, as it
falls within the system operation logic.
For the same reason, when shifting from
1st gear to R, the system will
automatically engage N if the gear has
jammed.
During prolonged stops with the engine
running, it is advisable to keep the
gearshift in
N.
On downhill stretches, if you allow the
vehicle to move forward in N, when an
UP-shift
is requested, the system will
engage a gear in relation to the vehicle
speed.
For safety reasons, the system activates the
buzzer and automatically shifts to N
when, with the vehicle stationary, the
engine running and a gear engaged:
- the brake or the accelerator pedal is not
depressed for more than 50 seconds
background
104
- the brake pedal is depressed for more
than 10 minutes
- the door is opened without depressing
the brake or the accelerator pedal
- the engine compartment lid is opened.
WARNINGWARNING
The buzzer may also sound to warn
the driver that the clutch is starting
to overheat. This may occur if you
use the accelerator pedal when the
vehicle is stationary on a hill or
during the “pick-up” maneuver.
In these cases, you must release the
accelerator pedal and only use the brake
pedal to keep the vehicle stationary or,
where possible, start off immediately.
Important
- When the vehicle is stationary with a
gear engaged, always hold the brake
pedal depressed until you are ready to
move.
- Do not “rev the engine” using the
accelerator pedal to start off.
- Shift to reverse only when the vehicle
has come to a complete stop and
keeping the brake pedal depressed.
If the vehicle is stopped on an uphill
stretch, do not use the accelerator
pedal to keep it stationary. Use the
brake and press the accelerator pedal
only when ready to move.
If the accelerator pedal is fully depressed
very quickly when the CST system is off,
the vehicle will have a “performance” start
with skidding of the driving wheels, even
in good grip conditions.
Gearshifting (F1 gearbox)
UP-shifting
Use the right-hand UP lever, even without
releasing the accelerator pedal.
An UP-shift request will not be accepted
if engagement of the requested gear
would force the engine to run at too low
RPM (underrevving) or if an UP-shift
is
already in progress due to engine
overrevving. Gearshifting will be
increasingly faster as the performance
requested by the driver increases, i.e., as
both the engine RPM and the travel of
the accelerator pedal increase.
In any event, it is advisable to:
- Shift gears without releasing the
accelerator pedal if it is depressed
- Wait until gearshifting has been
completed before requesting the next
shift, avoiding a rapid sequence of
multiple requests.
UP-shift due to engine overrevving
The system “automatically” engages a
higher gear if the accelerator pedal is
depressed and the engine approaches the
“runaway speed rate” (overrevving). This
will not occur when the system is in
RACE mode and the CST
system is off.
DOWN-shifting
Use the left-hand DOWN lever, even
without releasing the accelerator pedal.
A DOWN-shift request is not accepted if
engagement of the requested gear would
force the engine beyond a certain RPM or
if a DOWN-shift is already in progress
due to a too low engine RPM.

In any event, it is advisable to:
- shift gears without releasing the
accelerator pedal if it is depressed
- if a DOWN-shift is requested to start
overtaking, where rapid acceleration is
required, press the accelerator pedal just
before moving the lever
- wait until gearshifting is completed
before requesting the next one, avoiding
a rapid sequence of multiple requests.
DOWN-shift due to engine underrevving
- The system shifts down the gears
“automatically”, if the engine runs below
the minimum RPM, set at 1250 RPM.
- The DOWN-shift request from the lever
is ignored if gearshifting due to a too
low engine RPM (underreving) is
already in progress.
N (Neutral) request
If necessary,
N can be requested at any
speed.
Subsequently, if UP-shifting is requested,
the system will engage the gear most
suited to the speed of the vehicle.
F1 – SUPERFAST gearshifting
Using the elastic power of the transmission
devices and the integrated electronic
management of engine and gearbox, the
F1-SuperFast system enhances vehicle
performance.
The different gearshifting stages (torque
reduction and clutch disengagement, gear
disengagement and engagement and
subsequent clutch re-engagement) are
actuated in sequence.
This results in extremely fast gearshifting,
which is reduced to 100 ms (measured as
“acceleration gap”).
F1-SuperFast
gearshifting activates only
in the following conditions:
- “Manettino” set to SPORT
, RACE or
CST OFF
WARNINGWARNING
RACE mode must be used only on
race tracks.
- engine running at > 5000 RPM
- lateral acceleration
< 0.9 g
- no traction control
- engine water temperature
> 158 °F (70 °C)
and engine oil temperature
> 59 °F (15 °C).
A message on the TFT display will inform
the driver that F1-SuperFast gearshifting is
available.
F1-SuperFast gearshifting is not available
in the following conditions:
- “Manettino” set to ICE
or LOW GRIP
- engine running at
< 5000 RPM
- lateral acceleration
> 0.9 g
- skidding of the rear wheels
- traction control activated
- engine water temperature
< 158 °F (70 °C)
and engine oil temperature < 59 °F (15 °C).
Stopping the vehicle (F1 gearbox)
When the vehicle stops, the system
automatically engages 1st gear (unless N
has already been requested
). With the
vehicle stationary and the engine running,
hold the brake pedal down until you are
ready to start off again.
background
106
Turning off the engine and the
system (F1 gearbox)
The engine can be turned off either with
the gearshift in
N
or a gear engaged.
After turning the ignition key from
position II to position 0, the display will
remain on for a few more seconds to
display the gear engaged. If the gearshift
is in
N
, a buzzer will sound.
WARNINGWARNING
Do not start the vehicle before the
display has turned off.
Never leave the vehicle with the
gearshift in N. Engage a gear (1st or
R), check that the display is not
ashing and always apply the
handbrake. Never leave the vehicle
with the engine running.
WARNINGWARNING
Never remove the key when the
vehicle is moving! The system and
the display will remain active, but
malfunctioning, until the vehicle is
stopped. In addition, the steering
wheel will lock automatically with
the fi rst turn of the steering wheel.
In this case, the failure warning light will
illuminate (see page 92) and, before
starting off again, the system and the
display must be turned off and the
“Starting” procedure repeated.
In any event, it is advisable to:
-
turn off the engine and the system,
holding the brake pedal depressed
- do not request a gearshift while the
system is turning off.

In the event that the ignition system
malfunctions, you can “push start” the
vehicle as follows:
- perform the “system starting” procedure
(see page 100)
- with the gearshift in N, as the vehicle
speed is increasing, request an UP-shift.
This procedure should be avoided
unless there is an emergency situation!
Restarting the engine (F1gearbox)
In the event that the engine is turned off
accidentally, restart it using the ENGINE

and repeat the procedure.
- Press the ENGINE START
button and
release it as soon as the engine starts. Do
not hold the ENGINE START button
down for a long time.
If the vehicle fails to start, turn the key
back to position 0 before repeating the
procedure.
- After the engine has started, the words
ENGINE ON will be displayed.
If the engine fails to start after several
attempts, check for one of the following
causes:
- insuffi cient speed of the starter motor
(fl at battery)
- ignition device faulty
- electrical contacts faulty
- fuel pump fuses blown.
Do not run the engine at speeds higher
than 4000 RPM until the engine oil
temperature has reached at least
149 - 158 °F – 65 - 70 °C.
Driving the vehicle
(Mechanical Gearbox)
When the engine has started:
- Fully depress the clutch pedal and move
the gearshift lever to 1st gear.
WARNINGWARNING
Use 1st gear for parking or for
starting uphill.
- Completely release the handbrake.
- Slowly release the clutch pedal while
gradually accelerating.
- Then engage the other gears, fully
depressing the clutch pedal and moving
the gearshift lever into the next position.
When shifting down, be careful not to
exceed the maximum permitted engine
RPM (indicated on the tachometer in the
red area).
- Engage reverse gear only when the
vehicle is stationary: push the gearshift
lever downwards and then move it to
the left and forward.
While driving
(Mechanical Gearbox)
Never drive, not even downhill, with the
tachometer pointer near the peak engine
speed.
When the tachometer pointer approaches
peak speed (the red zone), the driver
must be very careful to avoid exceeding
that limit.
In normal conditions, all the red and
amber warning lights (for the suspension
and ASR systems) on the multi-function
display must be off. If on, these lights
indicate a malfunction in the
corresponding system.
Ensure proper functioning of the various
devices by checking the relative control
gauges.

WARNINGWARNING
Continuing to drive when a red
warning light is on could cause
serious damage to the vehicle and
affect its operation and performance.
After sports-style driving, let the
engine idle for several minutes
before turning it off, in order to
stabilize the temperatures.
WARNINGWARNING
Do not coast downhill with the
engine off, as the servo brake will no
longer function due to the vacuum
decrease and thus, after a less
braking attempts, the system will
become ineffi cient.
Parking
Apply the handbrake, put the gearshift
lever into 1st, whether parking uphill
or downhill, turn the wheels inwards
and turn off the engine (these
procedures are valid for all versions,
both with mechanical and F1 gearbox).
As the 1st gear is the most reduced, it is
more suited to use the engine as a brake.
When parking on a steep slope, use a
wedge to block the wheels.
Never leave the ignition key in position
II.
Always remove the key when getting out
of the vehicle.
WARNINGWARNING
Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle.
Do not park the vehicle on
ammable materials (e.g., paper,
grass, dry leaves, etc.). They could
catch fi re if they come into contact
with hot parts of the exhaust system.
Do not leave the engine running
with the vehicle unattended.
Parking maneuver
To assist the driver during parking
maneuvers, the vehicle can come
equipped with optional sensors, located in
the front and rear bumper.
background
110
WARNINGWARNING
To help ensure the system proper
functioning, the sensors positioned
on the bumper must be kept clean
(remove any mud, dirt, snow or ice).
When approaching obstacles found in
front or behind the vehicle, the parking
sensors provide the driver with
information on their distance.
The driver receives information about the
presence and distance of the obstacles
both by means of acoustic signals, the
tone frequency of which increases as the
obstacle gets closer, and by means of
visual warnings on the TFT display (see
the “Carrozzeria Scaglietti” User’s
Manual).
By supplementing the driver’s direct
visual information with that provided by
the system acoustic signals and visual
warnings, potential collisions can be
avoided during maneuvers.
WARNINGWARNING
However, the driver remains fully
responsible for parking maneuvers
and in other potentially dangerous
situations. The system has been
designed only as a supplementary
aid during parking maneuvers, since
it allows the driver to detect
obstacles outside his field of vision.
Use of the sensors therefore does
not mean that the driver can be less
careful and attentive and not watch
out for persons and obstacles during
parking maneuvers.
The parking system sensors, housed in the
rear bumper, are activated automatically,
with the key at position
II, when reversing.
If the vehicle is equipped with front
sensors, these can be activated by pressing
the relative button on the center console.
When reverse gear is engaged, an acoustic
signal (beep) warns the driver that the
system is active.
The system then begins to beep as soon
as an obstacle is detected, and the tone
frequency increases as the vehicle
approaches the obstacle.
When the obstacle is located at a distance
of less than 15.7 in. (40 cm), the beep is
continuous.
The warning beep stops immediately if
the distance between the vehicle and the
obstacle increases.
The tone cycle is constant if the distance
measured by the central sensors remains
unaltered.
For the TFT display graphic configuration,
please consult the “Carrozzeria Scaglietti”
User’s Manual.
Cleaning the sensors
When cleaning the sensors, take special
care not to scratch or damage them;
therefore, do not use dry, rough or hard
cloths.
The sensors must be washed with clean
water, possibly with car shampoo added.

In car-washes which use steam jet or high
pressure cleaning machines, keep the
nozzle at least 4 in. (10 cm) away from
the sensors.
Should you need to repaint the bumper
or in case of paint touch-ups in the sensor
area, please contact exclusively your
Authorized Ferrari Dealer. Incorrect
painting/touch-ups could affect the
parking sensor operation.
Sensor range
The sensors allow the system to monitor
the rear of the vehicle, as their position
covers the central and lateral zones at the
rear of the vehicle.
In the event of an obstacle located in a
mid area, this will be detected at distances
of less than 55 in. (1.40 m), depending on
the type of obstacle and its dimensions.
If the obstacle is located in a lateral
position, it will be detected at distances of
less than 31.5 in. (0.8 m).
Failure signals
The system ECU checks all of the
components every time reverse is
engaged.
A parking sensor system failure will be
indicated on the TFT display.


In the event of a failure warning signal,
stop the vehicle and turn the ignition key
to position 0 (Stop). Then try to clean the
sensors or move away from any
ultrasound sources (e.g., pneumatic truck
brakes or pneumatic hammers) and turn
the key back to II. If the situation causing
the malfunction has been corrected, the
system starts working again and the
failure warning buzzer stops. If the failure
warning buzzer remains on, contact your
Authorized Ferrari Dealer
to have the
system checked.
During parking maneuvers, always take
the greatest care as there may be
obstacles located above or underneath
the sensors.
In certain circumstances, objects
located near the rear of the vehicle are
not detected by the system and
therefore may damage the vehicle or
be damaged themselves.
The signals transmitted by the sensors
can also be altered by damage to the
sensors or by dirt, snow or ice on the
sensors or even by ultrasound systems
(e.g., pneumatic truck brakes or
pneumatic hammers) in the vicinity.
The driver is fully responsible for
parking and other potentially
dangerous maneuvers. During these
maneuvers, always make sure there
are no people (especially children)
or animals in the maneuvering area.
The parking sensors must be
considered an aid for the driver
who, in any case, must never take
less care during potentially
dangerous maneuvers, even if they
are performed at low speeds.
background
112
Proper driving
For proper driving, it is essential that
the driver be aware of the best driving
techniques suited to various
circumstances. Always try to prevent
dangerous situations by driving with
caution.
Before you drive
- Adjust the position of the seat, steering
wheel and rear-view mirrors, in order to
obtain the best driving position.
- Adjust the backrest so that your chest is
upright and your head is as close to the
headrest as possible.
- Carefully adjust the headrest so that
your head, and not the neck, is resting
against it. Make sure that nothing (e.g.,
floor mat, etc.) is blocking the pedals.
- Check that the lights and headlights are
working properly.
- Make sure that any child restraint
systems (e.g., child seats, etc.) are
properly fixed on the passenger seat.
- Your reflexes are quicker if you eat
lightly before driving: avoid heavy meals
before a trip.
- Do not drink alcoholic beverages before
and during the journey.
At regular intervals, check the following:
- Tire pressure and condition.
- Engine oil level.
- Engine coolant level and system
condition.
- Brake fluid level.
- Steering fluid level.
- Windshield washer fluid level.
When traveling
- Caution is the number one rule for safe
driving, which also means you should
take other people’s behavior into
consideration.
- Follow the Road Regulations of the
country in which you are driving, and
always respect the speed limit.
- Always make sure that the driver and
the passengers have their seat belts
fastened and that all children are
traveling in suitable child seats.
- Good personal physical conditions
ensure you can drive long distances
safely.
WARNINGWARNING
Drunk driving, or driving under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or certain
medicines is extremely dangerous
for yourself and others.
Traveling without your seat belt
fastened increases the risk of serious
injury and death in the event of a
collision. Always fasten the seat belt
and the child seat, if any.
Deactivate the passenger’s airbag
(where possible) if a child seat is
fitted on the front seat.
Do not travel with objects lying
around on the floor, especially in
front of the driver’s seat: in the event
of braking, these could slide under
the pedals, making it impossible to
brake or accelerate.
Additionally, ensure that any floor
mats fit correctly.
Water, ice and salt spread on icy
roads may deposit on the brake discs
and reduce the efficiency of the
initial braking.

- Make regular stops to loosen up your
limbs and refresh yourself, and avoid
driving for hours on end.
- Keep a constant air circulation in the
passenger compartment.
- Never coast downhill with the engine
off: in these conditions the engine brake,
servo brake and power steering are
inefficient, braking requires greater
pressure on the pedal and steering will
be harder.
Driving at night
When you are traveling at night, follow
these fundamental rules:
- Reduce speed, particularly on dark
roads.
- Driving conditions are more demanding
at night, so take particular care.
- If you start feeling tired or sleepy, stop
immediately: to continue driving would
be a risk for yourself and for others.
Continue only after you have had a rest.
- At night, it is difficult to evaluate the
speed of the vehicles by seeing their
lights only: keep at a greater safety
distance than you would during the day.
- Use the high beams only outside of
urban areas and when you are sure that
they will not disturb other drivers.
- Turn off the high beams when you see
oncoming vehicles and use the low
beams.
- Keep the lights and headlights clean.
- Watch out for animals crossing the road
when traveling outside urban areas.
Driving in the rain
Rain and wet roads can cause hazardous
situations.
All maneuvers are more difficult on a wet
roads, as the tires have significantly less
grip on the road. This means that the
braking distances increase considerably
and road-holding decreases.
Below is some advice for driving in the
rain:
- Keep a greater safety distance between
yourself and the other vehicles and
reduce your speed.
- When it is raining very hard, visibility is
also reduced. In these cases, to make
yourself more visible to others, turn on
the low beams even during the day.
- Do not drive through puddles at high
speeds as you do not know how deep
they may be. Traveling through a puddle
at high speed can result in losing control
of the vehicle (“aquaplaning”): hold the
steering wheel firmly.
WARNINGWARNING
If the road is wet, reduce your speed
to avoid “aquaplaning” phenomena,
during which the tire no longer
touches the road surface. This is due
to the fact that, when the road is
very wet and the vehicle speed is
high, the side channels of the tire
tread, because of their particular
shape or insufficient depth, are not
capable of removing all of the water
channelled, so that a layer of water
exists between the road surface and
the tire. The fluid pressure generated
is so high as to support the vehicle’s
weight, making it impossible for the
driver to control the vehicle.
- Use the ventilation system to defog the
windshield (see page 124) and to avoid
visibility problems.
- Periodically check the condition of the
windshield wiper blades.

Driving in fog
Whenever possible, avoid driving if the
fog is thick. If you have to drive in misty
conditions, or if there is thick fog or fog
banks, follow these rules:
- Keep a moderate speed.
- Turn on the low beams, also during the
day, and use the rear fog lights. Avoid
using the high beams.
WARNINGWARNING
On stretches where visibility is good,
turn off the rear fog lights, as they
are very bright and may be annoying
for the occupants of the vehicles
behind you.
- Remember that fog makes the road damp
and therefore all maneuvers are more
difficult and braking distances are longer.
- Keep a safe distance from the vehicle in
front of you.
- As much as possible, avoid suddenly
changing speed and direction.
- As much as possible, avoid overtaking.
- In the event of an emergency stop, (e.g.,
failures, inability to proceed due to poor
visibility conditions, etc.) try to leave the
main driving lane. Then turn on the
hazard warning lights and, if possible, the
low beams. When approaching another
vehicle, sound the horn rhythmically.
Driving on mountain roads
Below is some advice for driving on steep
mountain roads:
- To prevent the brakes from overheating
when driving downhill, use the engine
to brake by engaging a lower gear.
- Never coast downhill or drive downhill
with the engine off or in neutral, nor
with the ignition key removed from the
steering column.
- Drive at a moderate speeds and do not
“cut” corners.
- Remember that overtaking uphill is
slower and requires a longer free stretch
of road. If you are overtaken when
driving uphill, ensure that the other
vehicle can pass easily.
Driving on snowy or icy roads
Below is some advice for driving in these
conditions:
- Keep a very moderate speed.
- Keep a safe distance from the vehicles in
front of you.
- Fit snow tires approved for the vehicle.
- Given the poor grip, use the engine
brake as much as possible and avoid
sudden braking.
- Avoid sudden acceleration and sharp
changes in direction.
- During the winter season, even
apparently dry roads can have icy
sections.
Therefore, be careful when driving along
stretches of road in the shade as there
may be icy patches.
Driving with the “ABS” braking system
The ABS system assists the driver as
follows:
- It prevents the wheels from locking and
skidding during emergency braking,
particularly in low-grip conditions.
- It allows braking and changing direction
at the same time. This feature is affected
by the physical limits and lateral grip of
the tires.
- When the ABS is activated, you will feel
a slight pulsing of the brake pedal
during emergency braking or in low-grip
conditions. Do not release the pedal but
continue to push it to give continuity to
the braking action.

- The ABS system is designed to prevent
the wheels from locking, but it does not
increase the physical limits of grip
between the tires and the road: keep a
safe distance from the vehicles ahead
and reduce speed before curves.
Driving using the “Manettino” (driving mode
control switch)
The “Manettino”
A on the steering wheel,
allows the driver to use the vehicle
potential in a quick and easy way.
There are fi ve modes available, which can
be selected according to the grip level
(from low to high) and consequently to
the level of driving assistance required
(from high to none).
In ICE mode, increased stability -
which is essential for driving on
roads where grip is very low (e.g.,
snow or ice) - has priority over
performance, which is signifi cantly
reduced. Traction stability control
(CST) is at the maximum level
(Level 1). The vehicle has an
extremely “smooth” behavior.
Low Grip mode ensures stability
on both dry and wet roads.
It is
therefore recommended on roads
where grip is poor (e.g., rain),
slippery or extremely uneven roads,
but also to enhance comfort during
city driving. In this confi guration,
unlike the previous one, the driver
may drive the vehicle using the
gearbox as desired.
Suspension damping is optimized
to enhance driving comfort and the
CST
system remains set to the
previous level.
SPORT mode is the basic driving
mode for the vehicle and provides
the best compromise between
stability and performance. This
setting helps ensure stability only
in dry-high grip conditions and not
on low-grip road surfaces (in this
case, it is advisable to return to
Low Grip mode). In this mode, the
vehicle optimal performance can be
experienced on open roads. For
this reason, the suspension
damping level is shifted to a higher
one, so as to enhance performance,
handling and stability at high
speeds. Also the CST system
switches to a different level
(Level 2), offering the driver
greater driving freedom. The F1-
Trac system does not correct
engine torque signifi cantly when in
SPORT mode (for this reason, it
does not ensure stability on low-
grip road surfaces).
RACE mode must be used only on
race tracks.
background
116
On vehicles equipped with F1
gearbox, gearshifting is faster so as
to reduce gear change times as
much as possible. The CST
shifts
to Level 3 (engine power
reductions are minimal) and the
suspension stiffens further. In this
position, the driver has full control
of the vehicle and the operation of
all engine control systems is
reduced to a minimum. Stability is
not ensured.
The
CST
is deactivated. Vehicle
stability is no longer controlled,
but is completely in the hands of
the driver. The only aids that are
still active are those that cannot be
deactivated, such as the ABS and
EBD. When the brake pedal is
depressed, the VDC system is
reactivated, while the F1-Trac
system remains deactivated.
Gearshifting speed (on vehicles
with F1 gearbox) and damping
control remain the same as in
RACE
mode.
Ignition switch
The ignition key can be turned to 2
positions:
Position 0 – Stop

- Close both the doors, raise the driver-
side and passenger-side windows until
they meet the upper weather strip.
Check that the windows move down to
the “upper limit” when the doors are
opened.
WARNINGWARNING
Before starting the engine, wait at
least 60 seconds with the ignition
key at position II. This allows the
electronic system that controls the
motor-driven valves and the air con-
ditioning ECU to perform their self-
learning cycles
During this time, do not to activate
any device.
The Motronic ECU’s self-learning cycle is
successful when the intake air
temperature is above 41 °F
(5 °C).
After removing the battery from the

Wheels and tires
To help ensure performance, endurance
and the best tire adjustment on the wheel,
it is important to comply with the
following instructions for the fi rst 124–
186 mi. (200–300 km) with new tires:
• avoid sudden accelerations
• avoid sharp braking and steering
• drive at moderate speed on straight
roads and on curves.
How to use the tires
This is a high performance vehicle. The
wear of the tires will depend
signifi cantly on your driving habits and
patterns.The tires must be constantly
kept in good condition help ensure
safe driving. Check regularly for wear
and damage.
The infl ation pressure must correspond to
the specifi ed values and must be checked
only when the tires are cold. Tire pressure
increases as the tire temperature
progressively increases.
Never reduce the pressure if the tires are
hot.
Insuffi cient tire pressure can lead to
overheating, damage and even destruction
of the tires.
Infl ating the tires to a pressure
differing from that prescribed (see
table on page 26 - 27) will render
the monitoring system ineffi cient.
Periodically check the tire pressure.

Sudden impacts against sidewalks, holes in
the road and other obstacles of various types,
as well as long trips on rough roads, can
cause damage to the tires that may not
always be visible.
Check the tires regularly for any signs of
damage (e.g., scratches, cuts, cracks, bulges,
etc.).
If sharp objects penetrate the tires, they can
cause damage which is only visible when the
tire is removed.
Have any damage inspected by a qualified
technician as it may considerably reduce tire
life.
Remember that tires deteriorate over time,
even if they are rarely used or not used at all.
Cracks in the tread and side walls, possibly
accompanied by bulging, are sure signs of
aging.

Your Authorized Ferrari Dealer can
certify whether aged tires are suitable
for use. In any case, tires that have
remained on a vehicle for more than
3 years must be checked by an
Authorized Ferrari Dealer.
WARNINGWARNING
We recommend that you replace the
tires when worn to a depth of less
than 0.067 in (1.7 mm), but in no
case should they be kept on the
vehicle for more than four years,
even if sufficient tire tread remains.
Frequent use in maximum load
conditions and at high temperatures
may accelerate aging.
Never fit tires of uncertain origin.
WARNINGWARNING
The tires are of the “directional” type
and there is an arrow marked on
their side to indicate the direction in
which they must rotate or which side
is the outer side. In the case of
replacement, the best performance
levels can only be provided if the
rotation direction corresponds with
the direction indicated by the arrow.
Tires on the same axle must always
be replaced in pairs.
Regularly check the tire tread (minimum
acceptable depth 0.067 in (1.7 mm). As
the tread wear increases, there is a greater
risk of skidding.
WARNINGWARNING
Drive carefully on wet roads to
reduce the risk of “aquaplaning”.
Wheel alignment check and adjustment
When you notice unusual wear of the tires
and, in any case, at the intervals
prescribed in the “Warranty and Service
Book”, have your Authorized Ferrari
Dealer check the wheel alignment.

Maintenance of the seat belts
and pretensioners
• Periodically check that the screws on the
anchoring points are tight and that the
seat belt is in proper condition and slide
smoothly.
• The seat belt must be kept clean; the
presence of any dirt could jeopardize
the efficiency of the seat belt retractor.
• To clean the seat belt, wash it by hand
with mild soap and water and let it dry.
Do not use strong detergents, bleach or
aggressive solvents, as they can weaken
the fibers.
• Do not let the seat belt retractors get
wet: they will function properly only if
they are kept dry.
• The pretensioner requires no
maintenance or lubrication. If immersed
in water or mud, the pretensioner must
be replaced.
• The pretensioner must be replaced at
the intervals indicated in the “Warranty
and Service Book”.
WARNINGWARNING
All work on any part of the safety
system components may only and
exclusively be performed by an
Authorized Ferrari Dealer
.
Cleaning the vehicle
Cleaning the exterior
All the materials used for the
following operations (e.g., cloths
soaked with oil or grease, pans, etc.)
must be disposed of in compliance
with the environmental protection
regulations.
Proper care of the vehicle on the part of
the owner is essential for the vehicle long
life.
Below is a list of the main precautions to
be taken.
• Certain parts of the vehicle should not be
left wet or dirty for long periods of time:
in particular, the passenger compartment
floor and the luggage compartment must
always be kept clean and dry. The
draining holes under the doors should be
kept unclogged to allow any water to
drain.
• The underbody and the lower surfaces of
the vehicle should be cleaned regularly,
and more frequently (at least once a
week) if the vehicle is used on salty or
rough roads. The vehicle should be
cleaned thoroughly and carefully:
cleaning that only wets the vehicle,
without removing dirt or mud completely
can damage the bodywork.
• The vehicle must be washed regularly
with suitable equipment. Do not use
very hot water or steam to clean the
paintwork and the lower surfaces. It is
advisable to soften any dirt first, then
remove it with a jet of water at room
temperature.
WARNINGWARNING
Do not use aggressive substances to
clean the windows. Using aggressive
substances may damage some parts
of the body.
• Do not wash the vehicle in direct
sunlight or when the bodywork is still
warm: ensure that the jet of water does
not hit the paintwork too hard. Wash the
vehicle with a sponge and a solution of
mild soap and water. Rinse the vehicle
again with a jet of water and dry it with
a piece of chamois leather.
WARNINGWARNING
When the vehicle has been washed,
apply slight pressure to the brake
pedal at moderate speed before
driving at a normal speed, until the
brake discs and pads have cleaned off.
In order to maintain the shine of the
paintwork, polish it once or twice a year
with the products recommended by Ferrari
.

• Any areas that are cracked or chipped as
a result of stones, scratches or parking
maneuvers, etc., must be immediately
repaired by an Authorized Ferrari
Dealer.
• Do not park the vehicle in damp and/or
unventilated areas for long periods of
time.
Carbon parts
Have small scratches and marks on the
carbon structure removed by an
Authorized Ferrari Dealer only.
Improper operations may irreparably
damage the carbon parts.
Do not use aggressive organic substances,
such as: gasoline, kerosene, petroleum,
acetone or solvents.
Cleaning and care of the leather upholstery
As indicated in the “MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULE” (see “Warranty and Service
Book”), proper and regular treatment, at
least once a year, will help preserve the
quality, natural characteristics and softness
of the leather upholstery in your
Ferrari.
With this in mind, specific leather care
products are also available (“cleaner” and
“cream”) both tested by
Ferrari.
These products can be ordered through
the Ferrari Spare Parts Department,
both individually and as part of the “Care
Kit” which includes the complete range of
products for cleaning the vehicle.
For use of the “Care Kit” products,
contact your Authorized Ferrari
Dealer.
The following products must be avoided
when cleaning the leather: harsh
detergents, turpentine, liquid stain
removers, benzene, solvents and domestic
cleaning products. All of these products
damage the natural material.
If the vehicle is stored for long
periods
If the vehicle is not used for long periods
of time, it is advisable to take certain
precautions:
• if possible, park the vehicle on a level
surface, in a covered and well-ventilated
area
• keep the vehicle stationary by engaging
a gear and do not use the handbrake
• bring the tire pressure to 43.5 psi
(3.0 bar) and periodically change the
tire resting point on the ground
• disconnect the battery from the system
If you do not wish to disconnect the
battery in order to keep certain devices
functioning, such as the alarm system,
etc., the battery must be recharged at
least once a month. If the vehicle is not
used for long periods of time with the
battery disconnected, the battery must
be recharged at least every three
months.
• protect the vehicle with a breathable
fabric cover, avoiding materials that
would prevent any dampness on the
bodywork from evaporating.
Before using the vehicle again after long
periods of inactivity, adjust the tire
pressure to the indicated pressure and
check the fluid levels of all the systems.

However, the driver remains fully responsible for parking maneuvers and in other
potentially dangerous situations. The system has been designed only as a supplementary aid
during parking maneuvers, since it allows the driver to detect obstacles outside his field of

Extreme caution required Subject Page ref.
Drunk driving, or driving under the influence of drugs, alcohol or certain medicines is extremely
dangerous for yourself and others. Traveling without your seat belt fastened increases the risk of
serious injury and death in the event of a collision. Always fasten the seat belt and the child seat,
if any. Deactivate the passenger’s airbag (where possible) if a child seat is fitted on the front seat.
Do not travel with objects lying around on the floor, especially in front of the driver’s seat: in the
event of braking, these could slide under the pedals, making it impossible to brake or accelerate.
Additionally, ensure that any floor mats fit correctly. Water, ice and salt spread on icy roads may
deposit on the brake discs and reduce the efficiency of the initial braking.
Driving the vehicle
Safe driving
When travelling
Page 112
If the road is wet, reduce your speed to avoid “aquaplaning” phenomena, during which the tire
no longer touches the road surface. This is due to the fact that, when the road is very wet and
the vehicle speed is high, the side channels of the tire tread, because of their particular shape
or insufficient depth, are not capable of removing all of the water channelled, so that a layer of
water exists between the road surface and the tire. The fluid pressure generated is so high as
to support the vehicle’s weight, making it impossible for the driver to control the vehicle.
