Context :

Aims : IGR J01583+6713 is a new transient source discovered by the INTEGRAL/IBIS hard X-ray surveys .
Optical observations have provided evidence that it is a high mass X-ray binary , but its nature remains unclear .

Methods : We used the INTEGRAL/IBIS data to study IGR J01583+6713 during its outburst .

Results : We present the temporal profiles and spectral properties of IGR J01583+6713 around its outburst on 2005 Dec 6 .
During the outburst , the mean X-ray luminosity reached around 4 \times 10 ^ { 35 } erg s ^ { -1 } in the energy range of 20 – 100 keV .
The continuum spectrum can be fitted by a bremsstrahlung model of kT \sim 35 keV or a power-law model of \Gamma \sim 2.1 .
In addition , the electron resonant cyclotron absorption lines were detected at \sim 35 keV and possible at \sim 67 keV , implying that a magnetic neutron star of B \sim 4 \times 10 ^ { 12 } G is located in IGR J01583+6713 .
We class IGR J01583+6713 as a transient X-ray sources with a magnetic neutron star .
After the outburst , the flux of IGR J01583+6713 decreased and could not be detected by IBIS after 2005 Dec 10 .
During the outburst , we can not confirm the possible pulse period at 469 s previously reported and did not detect the modulation signals in the range of 200 – 2000 s with the IBIS observations .

Conclusions : The transient hard X-ray source IGR J01583+6713 contains a magnetic neutron star , which would help to understand its transient nature .
