.
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
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.

Introduction
WARNINGWARNING
WARNINGWARNING
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.
The vehicle is equipped with
emission control and monitoring
systems, which must always function
properly.
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.
7
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.
Always observe the various warnings contained in this manual.

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.

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.
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.
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.

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 system” on 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.
More information on these tires and
on the relative pressure monitoring
system can be found in the
“Carrozzeria Scaglietti” Owner’s
Manual.
