Push in the ignition switch. The manual will stay safe and dry if you keep it under the seat.

put your key in and turn it to the middle then push in,



but remember you have to hold your mouth just right.

Thank you everyone for help opening the glovebox.Unfortunately there was no manual as Vespa SF stated.Wish there was a manual online.
I turn the key on,then press red switch but it doesn't start.I am so clueless!

Did you turn key all the way clockwise?
AND squeeze one of the brake levers while pressing the ignition switch on right grip?

In the US, the red switch is the kill switch. The starter button is below that.

Did you open the seat (with the key) and look for the manual? Was this bike brand new or used?

I almost forgot. One of the brake levers must be pulled in order to complete the starting circuit.
