Let the fun begin!
Take a moment to familiarize yourself with
your smart fortwo coupé or smart fortwo
cabriolet and read through the Operator’s

you get more fun out of your vehicle - and
avoid danger to yourself and others.
This Operator’s Manual contains very
important information about how to safely
and effectively operate the vehicle. It is
important to note that this is a unique
vehicle. It is obviously smaller than most

it can provide both unique experiences and
special responsibilities. It is extremely
important that you read this entire Manual
and that you familiarize yourself with how
the vehicle works. Some of the features may
be different from the features on other
compact passenger vehicles. Should you
have any questions about the vehicle and
how to safely operate its features, please
use common sense and contact smart dealer
representatives, who are available to help
you.

available by calling smart Customer

Although we cannot prevent you from
servicing the vehicle at facilities other
than smart authorized facilities, this is
not advisable.
Optional extras are identified with an
asterisk*. The equipment in your vehiclemay vary depending on the model, version
and availability. smart is constantly
bringing its vehicles up to the very latest
state of the art and reserves the right to

engineering.
Should you find that a particular feature in
this manual is important to your decision
to purchase the vehicle, we recommend that
you personally check the vehicle to ensure
that this feature has been installed before
buying the vehicle.
The Operator’s Manual, Quick Guide and
Maintenance/Warranty Booklet (USA only)
or Service/Warranty Booklet (Canada only)
belong to the vehicle. You should always

Operating safety
GWarning!
Work improperly carried out on electronic
components and associated software could
cause them to cease functioning. Because
the vehicle’s electronic components are
interconnected, any modifications made
may produce an undesired effect on other
systems. Electronic malfunctions could
seriously impair the operating safety of
your vehicle.
See an authorized smart center for repairs
or modifications to electronic
components.
Improper work or modifications on other
vehicle systems could also have a negative
impact on the operating safety of the
vehicle.
GWarning!
Some safety systems only function while the
engine is running. You should therefore
never turn off the engine while driving.
GWarning!
Heavy blows against the vehicle underbody
or tires/wheels, for example when running
