If you wish to set this level, press switch (1, fig. 10) in position B "▼" for 3 seconds; the instrument panel will automatically quit this page and return to the initial display, with the level setting indicated on the right-hand side. If instead you wish to set the next highest level, press switch (1, fig. 10) in position B "▼". While if you wish to go back to the previous level, press switch (1, fig. 10) in position A "▲". If DTC is activated, the level setting can also be displayed when quitting the page "SEtUP DTC" at the end of the TOT, TRIP A, TRIP B and TRIP Fuel display functions. The level setting will remain in memory even after Key-Off. If, however, battery power is suddenly cut off (Batt-OFF), when battery power is restored and upon next Key-On, the Traction Control will no longer be activated (DTC OFF). Tips on how to select the sensitivity level The 8 level settings of the DTC were calibrated using tyres of the same make, model and size as those originally fitted to the motorcycle. The use of tyres of different size to the original tyres may alter the operating characteristics of the system. In the case of minor differences, such as for example, tyres of a different make and/or model than the original, but with the same dimensions (rear = 190/55-17; front = 120/70-17), it may be sufficient to simply select the most suitable level setting from those available to restore optimal system operation. If tyres of a different size class are used or if the tyre dimensions differ significantly from the original tyres, it may be that the system operation is affected to the point where none of the 8 available level settings will give satisfactory results. In this case is it is advisable to deactivate the traction control system. If level 8 is selected, the DTC control unit will kick in at the slightest hint that the rear wheel is starting to spin. Between level 8 and level 1 there are a further 6 intermediate levels. The level of DTC intervention decreases in equal steps from level 8 to level 1. When levels 1, 2 or 3 is selected the DTC control unit will allow the rear wheel to spin and also slide sideways on exiting a corner; we recommend that this setting is only used by very experienced riders.

Tips on how to select the sensitivity level
Warning
The 8 level settings of the DTC were calibrated using
tyres of the same make, model and size as those originally
fitted to the motorcycle.
The use of tyres of different size to the original tyres may
alter the operating characteristics of the system.
In the case of minor differences, such as for example, tyres
of a different make and/or model than the original, but with
the same dimensions (rear = 190/55-17; front = 120/70-17),
it may be sufficient to simply select the most suitable level
setting from those available to restore optimal system
operation.
If tyres of a different size class are used or if the tyre
dimensions differ significantly from the original tyres, it may
be that the system operation is affected to the point where
none of the 8 available level settings will give satisfactory
results.
In this case is it is advisable to deactivate the traction control
system.
If level 8 is selected, the DTC control unit will kick in at the
slightest hint that the rear wheel is starting to spin.
Between level 8 and level 1 there are a further 6 intermediate
levels. The level of DTC intervention decreases in equal
steps from level 8 to level 1.
When levels 1, 2 or 3 is selected the DTC control unit will
allow the rear wheel to spin and also slide sideways on
exiting a corner; we recommend that this setting is only used
by very experienced riders.
