2003 Ferrari 575M Maranello Owner's Manual, US Version (P/N 67462800)

This Ferrari owner's manual covers the US-market 2003 575M Maranello with the 3FEXV05.7LEV engine family and either the mechanical or F1 electro-hydraulic gearbox. Ferrari identifies the publication as code 67462800, catalog 1838/02.

• Transmission operation: Mechanical and F1 controls, starting, gear-selection warnings, Automatic, Low Grip and Sport modes, and parking procedures.

• Engine systems: Bosch Motronic ME 7.1.1, Drive by Wire throttle control, dry sump lubrication, cooling and fuel-vapor control, with component illustrations and fluid checks.

• Chassis controls: Skyhook suspension, ZF Servotronic power steering, ABS, ASR and EBD operation, including warning indications and diagnostic-equipment references.

• Tires and roadside tasks: Tire-pressure monitoring calibration, wheel replacement, spare-wheel limitations, emergency releases and towing provisions.

• Electrical service: Battery isolation and reconnection, throttle-system relearning, halogen bulb and fuse replacement, plus fuse and relay locations and assignments.

• Maintenance reference: Service-schedule charts, fluid specifications and capacities, engine bore and stroke data, transmission ratios, factory wheel sizes and cold tire pressures.

Suited to owners consulting operating instructions and routine checks, with scheduled maintenance and specialist work directed to Ferrari's authorized service network.

Vehicle Controls and F1 Operation

The operating chapters explain startup sequences, parking and the multi-function display. Instrument-panel illustrations identify controls and distinguish operating indicators from fault warnings, including gearbox, braking and exhaust-temperature alerts.

F1 coverage explains shift requests, automatic interventions and the interaction between driving modes. Component views identify the actuator, hydraulic pump and clutch-position sensor, while the transmission section describes the six-speed gearbox and limited-slip differential.

The F1 operating cautions explain how repeated gear changes with the engine off can overheat the hydraulic pump.

Engine, Cooling and Chassis Reference

The engine chapter explains how each cylinder bank's Motronic ECU works with the throttle, sensors and emissions equipment. Timing-control and cooling-system diagrams identify the relevant components. Belt inspection and tension work are assigned to Ferrari service centers with the required equipment.

Fluid-level checks cover the engine, gearbox/differential, power steering and brakes. The brake-fluid section warns that mineral-based fluid can irreparably damage the system's rubber seals.

Skyhook coverage describes the acceleration sensors, electronically controlled damping and fault indications. The diagnostic-socket information and suspension section identify the Ferrari SD-2 tester used for system diagnosis.

This is an operating and maintenance reference. It does not contain internal engine or gearbox overhaul instructions, and the maintenance schedule should not be confused with procedures for every listed service operation.

Electrical Service and Emergency Access

Fuse and relay location drawings are paired with circuit-assignment tables. Together, they help match an inoperative component to its fuse and specified rating before electrical repair. Separate entries distinguish the left- and right-bank Motronic circuits.

Battery-master-switch instructions cover reconnection and the motor-driven throttle system's self-learning requirement. This provides a reference for the initialization needed after electrical isolation.

The lighting section describes halogen high-beam bulb replacement. Xenon low-beam lamps have a high-voltage supply, and their replacement is assigned to the Ferrari Service Network. Review the manual's battery and lighting precautions before electrical work.

Emergency-access instructions cover the hood, fuel flap and luggage compartment when normal release controls fail. Tire-pressure monitoring instructions explain calibration after tire replacement or inflation and the meaning of calibration and fault messages.

The alarm section explains the remote controls and PIN-code function. Detailed alarm-system instructions are assigned to the separate alarm booklet supplied with the vehicle.

Examples from the Oil-Capacity Tables

These entries are a small selection of the fluid specifications provided in the manual.

The engine oil system's total capacity is listed as 10 liters. The gearbox and differential entry specifies 4.5 liters, including the connecting lines.

The separate F1 hydraulic system is listed at 1 liter. Keeping that entry distinct from the gearbox/differential capacity helps identify which circuit a fluid specification belongs to.

PDF Navigation and Page Breakdown

Text search and diagram detail: The main text is searchable, with embedded bookmarks for chapters and individual topics. Small legends in dense system illustrations benefit from zooming. Electrical illustrations provide component locations and fuse/relay references; full wiring schematics are outside this manual's scope.

One printable 287-page PDF contains English, Italian, French and Spanish text. The total comprises 285 interior pages and two outer covers; the interior count already includes the title page, cutaway illustration, indexes, publication information and two blank divider pages.
