Immobilizer System Operation - APRILIA CAPONORD Manual

If there is a failure in the ADD system, the two helmets and the suitcase blink together
on the display of the instrument panel, and the red GENERAL WARNING light stays
permanently on. Depending on the type of fault, the suspensions may work in either
medium rigidity or become fully rigid.
WARNING
IN THE EVENT OF FAULT, FOR SAFETY REASONS, SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE
DUE TO ELECTRICAL CONSUMPTION REASONS, THE ELECTRICAL PRELOAD
ONLY WORKS WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING (LEVEL ADJUSTMENT IS LOCKED
WHILE THE ENGINE IS OFF). IF THE ENGINE IS NOT STARTED WITHIN 15 SEC-
ONDS FROM KEY-ON, THE ELECTRONIC SUSPENSIONS ARE FOR THE SAME
REASONS TURNED OFF (AND THEREFORE LEAD TO MAXIMUM DAMPING)
AND ARE REACTIVATED WHEN THE ENGINE IS ACTUALLY STARTED.

Immobilizer system operation (02_57)

For enhanced theft protection, the vehicle is equipped with an electronic immobilizer
system that is activated automatically when the ignition key is removed.
Keep the second key in a safe place since it is not possible to make a copy if it gets
lost. This would imply replacing numerous parts of the vehicle (besides the locks).
Each key in the grip has an electronic device - transponder - which modulates the
radio frequency signal emitted by a special built-in aerial in the switch when the vehicle
is started.
02_57 The modulated signal is the "password" by which the appropriate central unit recog-
nises the key and only after this occurs, it allows the engine start-up.
CAUTION
THE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM CAN MEMORISE UP TO FOUR KEYS.
DATA STORAGE OPERATION CAN ONLY BE PERFORMED AT THE DEALER'S.
