Maintaining the battery charge
Your motorcycle is equipped with a connector (1) (diagnostic socket), under the rider seat, to which you can connect a special battery charger (2) (Battery charge maintenance kit part no. 69928471A
(Europe), part no. 69928471AW (Japan), 69928471AX (Australia), 69928471AY (UK), 69928471AZ (USA), available from our sales network.
Remove the connector (1) from the clamp (A) and connect it to the battery charger (2).
Note
The electric system of this model is designed so as to ensure there is a very low power drain when the motorcycle is OFF. Nevertheless, the battery features a certain self-discharge rate that is normal and depends on ambient conditions as well as on “non-use” time.
Important
If battery is not kept at a minimum charge level by a suitable battery charge maintainer, sulphation may occur and this is an irreversible phenomenon causing decreasing battery performance.
When the motorcycle is left unused (approximately for more than 30 days). We recommend owners to use the Ducati battery charge maintainer (Battery maintenance kit) since its electronics monitors the battery voltage and features a maximum charge current of 1.5 Ah. Connect the battery maintainer to the diagnostic socket.
Note
Using charge maintainers not approved by Ducati could damage the electric system; motorcycle warranty does not cover the battery if damaged due to failure to comply with the above indications, since it is considered as wrong maintenance.
Connect the maintainer (A) to the diagnostics socket (1).
