Accidents are frequently due to inexperience. Always make sure you have your licence with you when riding; you need a valid licence to be entitled to ride your motorcycle. Do not lend your motorcycle to inexperienced riders or who do not hold a valid licence. Both rider and pillion passenger must always wear a safety helmet. Wear proper clothing, with no loose items or accessories that may become tangled in the controls or limit your zone of vision. Never start or run the engine indoors. Exhaust gases are poisonous and may lead to loss of consciousness or even death within a short time. Both rider and pillion passenger should keep their feet on the footpegs when the motorcycle is in motion. Always hold the handlebars firmly with both hands so you will be ready for sudden changes of direction or in the road surface. The pillion passenger should always hold on to the suitable grab handle at the rear seat with both hands. Ride within the law and observe national and local rules. Always respect speed limits where these are posted. However, always adjust your speed to the visibility, road and traffic conditions you are riding in. Always signal your intention to turn or pull to the next lane in good time using the suitable turn indicators. Be sure you are clearly visible and do not ride within the blind spot of vehicles ahead. Be very careful when tackling road junctions, or when riding in the areas near exits from private grounds, car parks or on slip roads to access motorways. Always turn off the engine when refuelling. Be extremely careful not to spill fuel on the engine or on the exhaust pipe when refuelling. Do not smoke when refuelling. While refuelling, you may inhale noxious fuel vapours. Should any fuel drops be spilled on your skin or clothing, immediately wash with soap and water and change your clothing. Always remove the key when you leave your motorcycle unattended. The engine, exhaust pipes, and mufflers stay hot for a long time. Warning The exhaust system might be hot, even after engine is switched off; pay particular attention not to touch exhaust system with any body part and do not park the vehicle next to inflammable material (wood, leaves etc.). Park your motorcycle where no one is likely to hit it and use the side stand. Never park on uneven or soft ground or your motorcycle may fall over. 7 E Carrying the maximum load allowed Your motorcycle is designed for long-distance riding, carrying the maximum load allowed in full safety. Even weight distribution is critical to preserving these safety features and avoiding trouble when performing sudden manoeuvres or riding on bumpy roads. Information about carrying capacity The total weight of the motorcycle in running order including rider, pillion passenger, luggage and additional accessories should not exceed 385 Kg. Arrange your luggage or heavy accessories in the lowest possible position and close to motorcycle centre. Be sure to secure the luggage to the supports provided on the motorcycle as firmly as possible. Improperly secured luggage may affect stability. Never fix bulky or heavy objects to the handlebar or to the front mudguard as this would affect stability and cause danger. Do not insert any objects you may need to carry into the gaps of the frame as these may foul moving parts. Make sure the tyres are inflated to the proper pressure indicated at page 58 and that they are in good condition. E 8 Identification data All Ducati motorcycles have two identification numbers, for frame (fig. 1) and engine (fig. 2).

Instrument panel backlighting Turn the key to ON and press (B) (fig. 6) within 5 seconds to change instrument panel lighting power. 13 E The immobilizer system For improved anti-theft protection, the motorcycle is equipped with an IMMOBILIZER, an electronic system that inhibits engine operation whenever the ignition switch is turned off. Accommodated in the handgrip of each ignition key is an electronic device that modulates an output signal. This signal is generated by a special antenna incorporated in the switch when the ignition is turned on and changes every time. The modulated signal acts as a "password" and tells the CPU that an "authorised" ignition key is being used to start up the engine. When the CPU recognises the signal, it enables engine start-up. The key A performs the same functions as the keys B, and is also used to wipe off and re-program other black keys, if needed. Note The three keys have a small plate (1) attached that reports their identification number. Warning Keep the keys in different places. Store the plate (1) and the key A in a safe place. It is also recommended to use always the same black key to start the bike. Keys (fig. 7) The Owner receives a set of keys comprising: - 1 RED key A - 2 BLACK keys B Warning Red key A has a rubber cover for preserving it in perfect conditions and avoiding contact with other keys. Never remove this protection unless really needed. The keys B are regular ignition keys and are used to: - start up the engine - open the lock of the fuel tank filler plug - open the seat lock. 14 B A 1 fig. 7 Code card The keys come with a CODE CARD (fig. 8) that reports: A) (fig. 9) the electronic code to be used to be used in case of engine block, i.e. bike did not start after key-ON. B) (fig. 9) the part no. code for the keys to be reported to the DUCATI Service network when you are ordering any duplicate keys. Warning Keep the CODE CARD in a safe place. However, it is advisable to keep the electronic code printed on the CODE CARD handy when you ride your motorcycle, in case it is necessary to remove engine block through the procedure that uses the throttle twistgrip. In case of faulty immobilizer system, the following procedure gives the chance to disable "engine block" function -signalled by the orange EOBD warning light that comes on immediately (7, fig. 4). But this operation can be carried out only if the electronic code indicated on the code card is known. E fig. 8 A B fig. 9 15 E Procedure to disable immobilizer engine block through throttle twistgrip 1) Turn the key to ON and fully open throttle. Keep it open. The EOBD warning light turns off after 8 seconds. 2) Release the throttle as soon as the EOBD warning light turns off. 3) EOBD pilot light will flash. Count a number of flashes corresponding to the first figure of the code, open full throttle and keep the position for 2 seconds, then release. In this way the input of one figure is acknowledged, EOBD pilot light comes on and stays on for 4 seconds. Carry out the same procedure for the following figures of the code. Failure to do so will cause the EOBD pilot light to flash 20 times, then it will stay on. This means that the procedure has been aborted. It will be necessary to turn the key to OFF and restart from point (1). 4) Repeat operations described in point (3) up to the last figure of the code. 5) Release the throttle twistgrip, if the code is correct, the EOBD warning light shall flash signalling that engine block has been disabled. The warning light turns off after 4 seconds. If the code is NOT correct, the EOBD warning light stays on and it is then possible to turn the key to OFF and repeat the procedure, starting from point (1), as many times as necessary (infinite). Note Should the throttle twistgrip be released before the set time, the warning light turns on again. It is then necessary to bring the key to OFF and restart the procedure from point (1). 16 Operation When the ignition key is turned to OFF, the immobilizer inhibits engine operation. When the ignition key is turned back to ON to start the engine, the following happens: 1) if the CPU recognised the code, the CODE light on the instrument panel will flash briefly. This means that the immobilizer system has recognised the key code and enabled engine ignition. When you press the START button, the engine will start up. 2) If the CODE light stays on, it means that the code has not been recognised. When this is the case, turn the ignition key back to OFF and then to ON again. If the engine still does not start, try with another black key. If the other key does not work out either, contact the DUCATI Service network. 3) Should the CODE pilot light still be flashing, it means that an immobilizer system fault was reset (e.g. with the overriding procedure through throttle grip). Turn the key to OFF and back to ON, the immobilizer pilot light should go back to its normal operation (see point 1). Warning The keys accommodate electronic components inside. If dropped or hit, they might damage. Use only one key during the procedure. Failure to do so might prevent the system from recognizing the code of the key in use. Duplicate keys If you need any duplicate keys, contact the DUCATI Service network with all the keys you have left and your CODE CARD. DUCATI Service will program new keys and re-program your original keys, up to 8 keys in total. You may be asked to identify yourself as the legitimate owner of the motorcycle. Be sure you have any documents you might need to this end ready. The codes of any keys not submitted will be wiped off from the memory to make those keys unserviceable in case they have been lost. Note If you sell your motorcycle, do not forget to give all keys and the CODE CARD to the new owner. E 17 Ignition switch and steering lock (fig. 10) It is located in front of the fuel tank and has four positions: A) ON: lights and engine on; B) OFF: lights and engine off; C) LOCK: steering locked; D) P: parking light and steering lock. B O PUSH A FF ON CK LO P C D N IO NIT IG E Note To move the key to the last two positions, press it down before turning it. Switching to (B), (C) and (D), you will be able to take the key out. Warning This vehicle is equipped with an energy-saving CPU. If the key stays ON for a long period but the ignition button is not pressed within 15 seconds, the CPU will stop operating to avoid current absorption. Move the key to OFF and then to ON again. fig. 10 18 Left switch (fig. 11) 1) Dip switch, light dip switch, two positions: position = low beam on; position = high beam on. 2) Switch = 3-position turn indicator: centre position = OFF; position = left turn; position = right turn. To reset turn indicators, turn switch to central position and push in. 3) Button 4) Button = warning horn. = high-beam flasher. 4 1 E 3 2 fig. 11 19 E Clutch lever (fig. 12) Lever (1) disengages the clutch. It features a dial adjuster (2) for lever distance from the twistgrip on handlebar. To set lever distance from twistgrip, push lever (1) fully forward and turn the dial adjuster (2) to one of its four positions. Remember that position no. 1 gives maximum distance between lever and twistgrip, whereas lever and twistgrip are closest when adjuster is set to position no. 4. When you pull in the lever (1), you will disengage the engine from the gearbox and therefore from the driving wheel. Using the clutch properly is essential to smooth riding, especially when moving off. Warning Set clutch lever when motorcycle is stopped. Important Using the clutch properly will avoid damage to transmission parts and spare the engine. Note It is possible to start the engine with side stand down and the gearbox in neutral. When starting the bike with a gear engaged, pull the clutch lever (in this case the side stand must be up). 2 1 fig. 12 20
