Pin Code - Ducati MONSTER 821 Workshop Manual

Pin Code

This function allows enabling and then modifying a 4-digit PIN code to "temporarily" start the vehicle in
case of Immobilizer system malfunction.
The PIN CODE is initially not present in the motorcycle, it must be activated by the user by entering his/her
4-digit PIN in the instrument panel, otherwise the motorcycle cannot be started temporarily in the case of a
malfunction.
- To activate this function, refer to "Entering the PIN CODE" procedure.
- To change the PIN refer to "Changing the PIN CODE" procedure.
- In order to temporarily start the motorcycle in case of malfunction of the Immobilizer system, please refer
to the "Vehicle Release" procedure.
Warning
The motorcycle owner must activate (store) the PIN code; if there is already a stored PIN, "reset" the
function. To follow this procedure, check that the request is made by the real owner of the vehicle.
