The purpose of our paper is to introduce some topology on the group $G_F^{r}(M)$ of all $C^{r}$-isometries of foliated manifold $(M,F)$, which depends on a foliation $F$ and coincides with compact-open topology when $F$ is an $n$-dimensional foliation. If the codimension of $F$ is equal to $n$, convergence in our topology coincides with pointwise convergence, where $ n=\operatorname{dim}M.$ It is proved that the group $G_F^{r}(M)$ is a topological group with compact-open topology, where $r\geq{0}.$ In addition it is showed some properties of F-compact-open topology.
