Ducati Traction Control enabling/disabling
It is used to activate the Ducati Traction Control
system: DTC.
Purpose of the system
Warning
DTC is a rider aid that can be used both on the
track and the road. The system is designed to make
riding easier and to enhance safety, but in no way
relieves the rider of the obligation to drive responsibly
and to maintain a high standard of riding in order to
avoid accidents, whether caused by his own errors or
those of other road users, through making
emergency manoeuvres, in accordance with the
prescriptions of the road traffic code.
The rider must always be aware that active safety

systems have a preventive function. The active
elements help the rider control the motorcycle,
making it as easy and safe to ride as possible. The
presence of an active safety system should not
encourage the rider to ride at speeds beyond the
reasonable limits, in accordance with the road
conditions, the laws of physics, good riding standards
and the requirements of the road traffic code.
51
Activation of the system
To activate the system, the motorcycle must be
stationary and safely parked.
To enable Traction Control, enter the menu and set
“DTC” to “On” by pressing switch (1Fig. 9), in
position B “ ” for 3 seconds; once the 3 seconds
have elapsed, the message “DTC” will appear on the
display to indicate activation of the Ducati Traction
Control system. When activated, the message
“DTC” is visible both on the normal display and also
within the menu pages. Press B for 10s
Press B for 10s

System functions To ensure that system continues to function correctly
it is necessary to observe the manufacturer’s
Note programmed maintenance schedule.
To operate the system, the motorcycle must be
stationary and safely parked.
Each time DTC is activated, the Traction Control ECU

will set the last sensitivity level stored; the level may
then be adjusted using the function “Traction Control
Sensitivity Level Setting (DTC SETUP)”.
To disable Traction Control, enter the menu and set
“DTC” to “OFF” by pressing switch (1Fig. 9), again
in position B “ ” for 3 seconds; once the 3 seconds
have elapsed, the message “DTC” will disappear
from the display, thereby indicating deactivation of
the Ducati Traction Control system.
If the engine suddenly stops or is switched off (Key-
Off) while Traction Control is activated, the function
will NOT be disabled but will still be active (DTC On)
at the next Key-ON.
If, however, battery power is suddenly cut off (Batt-

The Immobilizer system
For improved antitheft 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. When the ignition is turned on this signal is
generated by a special antenna incorporated in the
switch and changes every time. The modulated signal
represents the “password” (which is changed at
each start-up) by which the ECU recognizes the
ignition key. The ECU will only allow the engine to
start if it recognises this password.
69
Keys
The owner receives 2 keys B (BLACK) with the B 1

These keys contain the "immobilizer system code".
Note
Your Ducati dealer may ask you to produce your
Code Card in order to carry out certain servicing
operations.
The black keys (B) are regular ignition keys and are
used to:

Duplicate keys
If you need additional keys, contact your DUCATI
Service Centre with all the keys you have in your
possession and your CODE CARD.
The Ducati Service Centre will program all the new
keys as well as any keys you already have.
You may be asked to provide proof that you are the
legitimate owner of the motorcycle.
The codes for any keys not present during the
memory programming procedure are cancelled, to
ensure that any keys that may have been lost can no
longer be used to start the engine.

Riding the motorcycle For all mechanical parts of the motorcycle to adapt to
one another and above all not to adversely affect the
life of basic engine parts, it is advisable to avoid harsh
accelerations and not to run the engine at high rpm
for too long, especially uphill.
Running-in recommendations Furthermore, the drive chain should be inspected
Maximum rpm frequently. Lubricate as required.
Rotation speed for running-in period and during
standard use (rpm):
1) up to 1000 km;
2) from 1000 to 2500 km.
Up to 1000 km
During the first 1000 km, keep an eye on the rev
counter. It should never exceed: 5,500÷6,000 rpm.
During the first hours of riding, it is advisable to run
the engine at varying load and rpm, though still within
recommended limit.
To this end, roads with plenty of bends and even
slightly hilly areas are ideal for a most efficient
running-in of engine, brakes and suspensions.
For the first 100 km, use the brakes gently. Do not
brake violently or keep brake applied for too long. This
will enable a correct break-in of the friction material
on the brake pads against the brake discs.
100
From 1000 to 2500 km
At this point, you can ask for more power from the 0 ÷ 1.000 Km 1.000 ÷ 2.500 Km
engine. However, never exceed 7,000 rpm.
Important
During the whole running-in period, the
maintenance and service rules recommended in the
Warranty Booklet should be observed carefully.
Failure to comply with these rules will release Ducati
Motor Holding S.p.A. from any liability whatsoever for
resulting engine damage or shorter engine life.
Strict observance of running-in recommendations will Fig. 58

during this difficult moment is statistically higher than
any other moment. A locked front wheel leads to loss
of traction and stability, resulting in loss of control.
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) has been
developed to enable riders to use the vehicles braking
force to the fullest possible amount in emergency
braking or under poor pavement or adverse weather
conditions.
ABS uses hydraulics and electronics to limit pressure
in the brake circuit when a special sensor mounted to
the wheel signals the electronic control unit that the
wheel is about to lock up.
This avoids wheel lockup and preserves traction.
Pressure is raised back up immediately and the
107
Warning
With the ABS system deactivated, the vehicle
maintains the characteristics of the standard braking
system, therefore the use of only one of the brakes
reduces the motorcycle's braking efficiency. Never
use the brake controls harshly or suddenly; as you
may lock the wheels and lose control of the
motorcycle. When riding in the rain or on slippery
surfaces, braking capacity is significantly reduced.
Always use the brakes very gently and carefully when
riding under these conditions. Any sudden
manoeuvres may lead to loss of control. When
tackling long, high-gradient downhill road tracts, shift
down gears to use engine braking. Apply one brake
at a time and use brakes sparingly. Keeping the
brakes applied all the time would cause the friction
material to overheat and reduce braking power
dangerously. Tyre inflation pressures below the
specified value will reduce braking efficiency, and
compromise steering precision and roadholding on
bends.

Checking drive chain tension
Important
A
Have chain tension adjusted by a Ducati Dealer
or authorised Service Centre.
Make the rear wheel turn until you find the position
where chain is tightest. Set the vehicle on the side
stand. With just a finger, push down the chain at the =
point of measurement and release. Measure the =
distance (A) between the centre of the chain pins and 61÷ 63 mm
the aluminium section of the swinging arm. It must
be: A = 61 ÷ 63 mm Fig. 107
Important
If the drive chain is too tight or too slack, adjust
it so that tension reading will fall within specified
range
138
Warning
Correct tightening of swinging arm screws (1) is
critical to rider and passenger safety.
Important
Improper chain tension will lead to early wear of
transmission parts.

Fig. 108
139
Chain lubrication
The chain fitted on your motorcycle has O-rings to
protect its moving parts from dirt, and to hold the
lubricant inside.
So as not to damage these seals when cleaning the
chain, use special solvents and avoid aggressive
washing with high-pressure steam cleaners. After
cleaning, blow the chain dry or dry it using absorbent
material and apply SHELL Advance Chain or Advance
Teflon Chain on each link.
Important
Using non-specific lubricants may cause severe
damage to the chain and the front and rear sprocket.
140
Replacing the bulbs
Before replacing a burnt-out bulb, make sure that the
2 1
new one matches the voltage and wattage
specifications in paragraph “Electric System” page
166.
Important
Have the bulbs changed at a Ducati Dealer or
authorised Service Centre.
Loosen the screw (1) and detach the lens (2) from the
turn signal support.
The bulb is of the bayonet-type: press and rotate Fig. 109
anticlockwise to remove. Fit the spare bulb by
pressing and turning clockwise until it clicks. Refit the
cup by inserting the tab into the corresponding slot in
the turn signal support. Refit and tighten the screw
(1).
141
Beam setting
To check the headlight aim, place the motorcycle
upright with the tyres inflated to the correct pressure
and one person sitting astride the motorcycle. The
motorcycle should be perfectly vertical, with its
longitudinal axis at right angles to a wall or screen at
9 x x
a distance of 10 metres. Draw a horizontal line at the
10
height of the centre of the headlamp and a vertical
one at the longitudinal axis of the motorcycle. If
possible, perform this check in dim light. Switch on 10 m
the low beam. The height of the upper limit between
the dark area and the lit area must not be more than
nine tenths of the height of the centre of the headlight Fig. 110
from the ground.
Note
This is the procedure specified by Italian
regulations for checking the maximum height of the
light beam. Owners in other countries will adapt said
procedure to the provisions in force in their countries.
142
To adjust the headlight beam vertically, turn the
screws (1), for horizontal adjustment, turn the screw
1
(2).
Warning
The headlight might fog up if the vehicle is used
under the rain or after washing. Switch headlight on
for a short time to dry up any condensate.

Tyres REPAIRING OR REPLACING TYRES
Front tyre pressure: In the event of a tiny puncture, tubeless tyres will take
2.25 bar - 2.29 kg/sq. cm a long time to deflate, as they tend to keep air inside.
Rear tyre pressure: If you find low pressure on one tyre, check the tyre

144
Note
Have the tyres replaced at a Ducati Dealer or
authorised Service Centre. Correct removal and
installation of the wheels is essential,. Some parts of
the ABS (such as sensors and phonic wheels) are
mounted to the wheels and require specific
adjustment.
145
MINIMUM TREAD DEPTH
Measure tread depth (S) at the point where tread is
most worn down: it should not be less than 2 mm, S
and in any case not less than the legal limit.
Important
Visually inspect the tyres at regular intervals for
cracks and cuts, especially on the side walls, and
bulges or large stains that indicate internal damage
Replace them if badly damaged. Remove any stones
or other foreign bodies caught in the tread.
Fig. 113
146
Check engine oil level 2
Check the engine oil level through the sight glass (1)
on the clutch cover.
Oil level must be checked with the motorcycle
perfectly upright and the engine cold.
Oil level should be between the marks near the sight
glass. If the level is low, top up with SHELL Advance
4T Ultra engine oil.
Remove the oil filler cap (2) and top up until the oil MAX
reaches the required level.

Cleaning and replacing the spark plugs
Spark plugs are essential to smooth engine running 0,7÷0,8 mm
and should be checked at regular intervals.
This is a relatively simple operation and provides a
good indication of how well the engine is running.
Pull the spark plug caps off the spark plugs and
remove the plugs from the cylinder heads using the
wrench supplied in the toolkit.
Check the colour of the ceramic insulator around the
central electrode: a uniform light brown colour
indicates good engine condition.
If the insulation is any other colour, or if there are dark
deposits, replace the spark plug and describe the Fig. 116
