Immobilizer system To further improve the anti-theft protection, the motorcycle is equipped with an engine electronic block system (IMMOBILIZER) that is automatically activated every time the instrument panel is switched off. An electronic device used to modulate the signal issued upon key-on by a special antenna positioned under the seat is housed inside key cover.
Keys The Owner receives a set of keys comprising: 1 active key (1); 1 passive key (2). They contain the code used by the "Hands free" system for the Key-On, in different modes. The active key (1) is the one that is normally used. Press button (A) to fully open the metal part, position (B).
Page 119
The active key contains a battery that must be replaced if the low key battery warning is displayed when the instrument panel is turned on. Note In this case, replace the battery as soon as possible. When the charge level goes below a certain limit, the key can only work in passive mode, like the passive key: in this case, the instrument panel will not display any message.
Replacing the battery in the active key Only use 3 Volt CR 2032 lithium ion batteries. Note The keys do not need to be reprogrammed after replacing the battery. Remove the metal part of the battery. Use a large sized coin (2 Euro coin) to pry open the shells of the plastic grip as shown in the figure.

Near a TV tower, radio station, electric power plant, airport, gas station or other facility that generates strong radio waves. When carrying a portable radio, cellular phone or another wireless communication device.
Page 146
Hands free system "Key-On" and "Key-Off" Key-On consists in turning on the hands free system and all electronic devices. Key-Off consists in turning off the hands free system and all electronic devices, and ensures engine is turned off. Key-On is done using button (6) on the right switch on the handlebar or using the emergency button (7) on the Hands free lock.
Page 147
Key-On can only occur in the presence of one of the two keys (3) or (4) or using the pin code. Key-Off can also occur without any key (3) or (4). Key-Off occurs when the speed of the motorcycle is equal to zero, by pressing button (6) on the handlebar or by pressing the Hands free button (7).

Rear shock absorber adjusters The rear shock absorber has external controls that enable you to adjust the setting in order to suit the load on the motorcycle. The adjuster (1, Fig. 124), located on the lower mount which fastens the shock absorber to the swinging arm, adjusts the damping during the rebound phase (return).
Page 176
The knob (3, Fig. 126), located on the expansion reservoir of the shock absorber, adjusts the damping during the compression phase. Turn the adjusters (1) with a screwdriver or the knobs (2) and (3) clockwise to obtain a harder setting or increase preload. Turn them counter-clockwise to obtain the opposite setting.
