Key duplication

When a customer needs spare keys, he/she shall contact a Ducati authorised service centre and bring all keys he/she still has.
The Ducati authorised service centre will program all new and old keys.
The Ducati authorised service centre may ask to the customer to prove to be the motorcycle owner. The codes of the keys missing during the programming procedure will be erased to ensure that any lost key can not start the engine.

Immobilizer unlock procedure
In case of key acknowledgement system or key malfunction, the instrument panel allows the user to enter his/her own PIN code to temporarily restore motorcycle operation.
If the PIN CODE function is active, the instrument panel shows the message “INSER PIN” and four zeros (“0”) to enter the release PIN CODE.

Entering the code: 

  1. Press button (4), only one digit indicating “0” is highlighted;
  2. each time you press the button (2) the displayed number increases by one (+ 1) up to “9” and then starts back from “0”;
  3. each time you press the button (1) the displayed number decreases by one (- 1) up to “1” and then starts back from “0”;
  4. to confirm the number, press the button (4).
    Repeat the procedures until you confirm all the digits of the PIN CODE.

When you press a button (4) to confirm the fourth and last digit:

  • if the PIN code is not correct, the instrument panel displays PIN CODE WRONG for three seconds and then highlights the string of four zeros (“0”) to allow you to try again. The number of possible attempts is determined by a preset time-out of two minutes.
  • if the PIN CODE is correct, the instrument panel shows PIN CODE CORRECT for three seconds, and then displays the “standard screen”.

Important
If this procedure is necessary in order to start the motorcycle, contact an Authorised Ducati Service Centre as soon as possible to fix the problem.

Controls

Position of motorcycle controls
Attention This section shows the position and function of the controls used to ride the motorcycle. Be sure to read this information carefully before you use the controls.

  1. The instrument panel on the handlebar.
  2. “Hands-free” system.
  3. Left-hand switch.
  4. Clutch lever.
  5. Rear brake pedal.
  6. Right-hand switch.
  7. Throttle twistgrip.
  8. Front brake lever.
  9. Gear change pedal.

“Hands-free” system
The Hands-free system consists of:

  1. Hands-free lock;
  2. Antenna;
  3. Active key;
  4. Passive key;
  5. Electric plug (optional).

Important
Conditions affecting the correct operation of the Hands-Free system.
The wireless control operation could be impaired in the following situations.

  • Near a TV tower, radio station, electric power plant, airport, gas station or another facility that generates strong radio waves.
  • When carrying a portable radio, cellular phone or another wireless communication device.
  • When multiple wireless keys are nearby.
  • When a wireless key comes into contact with or is covered by a metallic object.
  • When a wireless key (that emits radio waves) is being used nearby.
  • When a wireless key is left near an electrical appliance such as a Personal Computer.
    (Fig 156) indicates the position of the Hands-Free block (1) and (Fig 157) indicates the position of the antenna (2) under the left-hand tail guard (9).

Hands-free system “Key-On” and “Key-Off”
Key-On consists in turning on the hands-free system and all electronic devices.
Key-On is done using button (6) on the right switch on the handlebar or using the emergency button on the Hands-free unit (1).
Key-Off consists in turning off the hands-free system and all electronic devices, and ensuring the engine is turned off.
Key-Off is done using the button (6) on the right switch on the handlebar or using the button on the Hands-free unit (1).

Note
The use of one of the two buttons, (6) on handlebar or (1) on hands-free, does not exclude the other; e.g., if you use one for the switch-on, you can switch off with the other and vice versa.

Key-On can only occur in the presence of one of the two keys (3) or (4) or using the pin code.
Key-Off can also occur without any key (3) or (4). Key-Off occurs when the speed of the motorcycle is equal to zero, by pressing the button (6, Fig 158) on the handlebar or by pressing the Hands-free button (1). When speed is not equal to zero, perform key-off by pressing the Hands-free button (1).

Attention
The passive key (4) has a range of a few cm (in), therefore it must be positioned close to the left-hand tail guard (9), close to the antenna (2), as indicated.

Important
If active key battery is flat, the key works as a passive key so its range is reduced to a few inches (cm) from the antenna (2). The instrument panel shows when battery is flat. If active key battery is flat, the key can still be used as a passive key.

The mechanical part (A) of the key (3) is used to open the fuel filler cap, the seat latch and bag locks. The metal part (A) of the key (3) remains hidden inside its housing, you can take it out by pressing button (B).

Note
With the vehicle in “Key-On” and “engine off” condition, if the presence of the active key (3) is not detected for fifteen consecutive seconds, the motorcycle will turn off automatically without any action by the rider.

After each Key-Off, if the key is not present upon next Key-On, the pin code must be entered. The pin code is set by the customer upon delivery of the motorcycle. The function is not enabled unless a pin code has been set. When the Hands-Free button (7) is pressed, the instrument panel allows entering the four-digit pin code. Pin code must be entered within 120 seconds, after which a Key-Off occurs automatically.
