During this check stage, if the motorcycle speed exceeds 5 km/h (3 mph), the instrument panel will stop:
- The display check routine and display the standard screen containing updated information;
- The warning light check routine and leave ON only the warning lights that are actually active at the moment.

If the temperature is below +40°C (+104°F), “LO” is displayed, whereas if it is above +120 °C (+248 °F), “HI” is displayed flashing red.Attention In case of overheating, if possible, it is recommended to ride at reduced speed to allow the cooling system to lower the engine temperature. If this is not possible due to traffic conditions, stop and turn the engine off. If the motorcycle continues to be used when the engine is overheated, severe damage may occur. When the engine temperature returns to normal, continue riding by frequently checking the in‐ strument panel indication. |

Interactive menu and Info display
The “Interactive Menu” contains a series of functions that can be activated by the rider. When a function is activated, a corresponding window is displayed with which you can interact.
The “Info display” menu includes all counters referred to available trip information (see page 115)
When one of the menus is selected, it is indicated with the active frame (A,Fig 75) and buttons (1), (2) and (3) are used for menu navigation and interaction. To toggle the selection between “Interactive menu” and “Info display” and vice versa:
- If “Interactive menu” is currently selected, long press and hold button (2) to move the selection to “Info display” (C, Fig 75);
- If “Info display” is currently selected, long press and hold button (1) to move the selection to
“Interactive menu” (B, Fig 75).
Buttons (1) and (2) are mainly used to scroll and select items in the selected menu. Button (3) is used to activate and interact with the selected menu item. The left part of the menus shows the following symbols indicating the possible interaction of buttons (1), (2) and (3):

Riding Mode
Riding Modes are available: SPORT, TOURING, URBAN.
The name of the active Riding Mode is shown at the centre of the display (A, Fig 76).
Each Riding Mode is associated with a different colour for the name and rev counter box.
The parameters associated to each Riding Mode are: Engine, DTC, ABS, DWC, DQS.
For each Riding Mode it is possible to customise the parameters using the “Riding Mode” function in the “Setting menu” .
Changing the Riding Mode
- Press and hold the MODE/ENTER button (3) for a long time.

Select “Exit” and press MODE/ENTER button (3) to quit the screen without making any changes.
As soon as the new Riding Mode is confirmed, the instrument panel checks the following conditions:
- If speed is lower than or equal to 5 km/h (3 mph) and throttle control is open, the message “Close throttle” is displayed; the new Riding Mode is confirmed and stored only when throttle control is closed and then the main screen is displayed.
- If speed is lower than or equal to 5 km/h (3 mph), throttle control is closed but brakes are actuated, the message “Release brakes” is displayed. The new Riding Mode is confirmed and stored only when brakes are released and then the main screen is displayed.
- If both of the above conditions occur, the message “Close throttle and release brakes” is displayed. The new Riding Mode is confirmed and stored only when both conditions are satisfied and then the main screen is displayed.
If either of the conditions required to validate the change of Riding Mode are not true within 5 seconds from activation of one of the above-described conditions, the procedure will be aborted, the instrument panel will go back to displaying the main page and no settings will be changed.
Attention
Ducati recommends changing the Riding mode when the motorcycle is stopped. If the riding mode is changed while riding, be very careful (it is recommended to change the Riding mode at a low speed).
Engine rpm indication
The engine rpm is displayed using a rev counter featuring a grey wake (A).
During the first 1000 km (600 mi) of the odometer (vehicle running-in period), or up to the first service, a virtual engine rpm limiter is set and is indicated when the wake becomes amber yellow.
After the break-in period or after the first inspection, the virtual limiter indicates and advises the rider to ride at lower revs when the engine is cold. The virtual limiter threshold changes according to engine temperature: if the engine temperature is below 50 °C (122 °F), the rpm threshold is 7000 rpm.
When the wake becomes amber yellow and starts blinking, the instrument panel is warning the rider to shift up.
The wake becomes flashing red when the rev limiter trips: in this case the rev limiter (page 102) turns on, too.
If the number of rpm is lower than 1,000 rpm, the wake is not displayed.
Attention
Your motorcycle is equipped with a rev limiter which limits the engine speed to approximately 3000 rpm when the engine is in neutral with the clutch released. This is to prevent excessive noise pollution and also to avoid reaching engine speeds that are harmful to the engine without load. When this limiter comes into operation the revs will be limited and there will be a flashing Overrev indication on the instrument panel. When the clutch is pulled, this function is not active.
Info display
The “Info display” menu contains all available meters with travel information (A, Fig 80).
To select the “Info display” menu, press and hold the button (2) for a long time.
Once you have selected the “Info display” menu, scroll through the list of information using the buttons (1) and (2).
The units of measurement of the trip information can be changed using the “Measurement units” function in the “Setting menu” (page 162).
