E Operation When the ignition key is turned from ON to OFF, the immobilizer system activates the engine lock. When the ignition key is turned from OFF to ON to start the engine: 1) if the code is recognised, the protection system releases the engine lock. When you press the START (2, fig. 29) button, the engine will start up. 2) if the motorcycle diagnostics warning light (9, fig. 4) comes on and if, when you press the button (1, fig. 8) in the "▼" position, the "Error IMMO" message appears on the display, indicating that the code has not been recognised. In this case, turn the ignition key back to OFF and then to ON again. If the engine still does not start, try again with the other black key. If the engine still does not start, contact the DUCATI Service network. 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. Notes If you sell your motorcycle, do not forget to give all keys and the CODE CARD to the new owner. Warning Sharp knocks can damage the electronic components inside the key. Always use the same key throughout the procedure. Otherwise, the system might be prevented from recognizing the code of the key being used. 38
