F1" Gearbox Transmission Check - Ferrari 612 Scaglietti Owner's Manual

"F1" gearbox transmission check

The gearbox is controlled by means of an electro-hydraulic system,
which is actuated by the two levers on either side of the steering wheel.
These levers substitute the traditional gearshift lever and the clutch
pedal.
The entire system is mounted at the rear of the gearbox and it can be
accessed by removing the rear underfloor.
The main features of the electronically-controlled system for gearbox
and clutch are the following:
• faster gear shifting time, when upshifting and downshifting;
• possibility of shifting to the desired gear without taking your hands
off the steering wheel;
• greater comfort, with the elimination of the clutch pedal;
• greater driving safety, by preventing errors on the part of the driver;
• protection against engine overrevving caused by incorrect gear-
shifting.

"F1" gearbox system oil level
The "F1" gearbox system's oil tank is positioned on the left rear part of
the gearbox housing. The filler cap is only accessible by removing the
rear underfloor.
A low oil level is detected by the sensor located on the top of the tank.
It switches on the warning light on the TFT display in the instrument
panel.
If this warning light comes on, you must take the vehicle to the F
S N to have the system checked and topped up.
