Activation of the system
To activate the system, the motorcycle must be
stationary and safely parked.
To enable Traction Control, enter the menu and set
"DTC" to "On" by pressing button (12, fig. 15) in
position B "▼" for 3 seconds; once the 3 seconds
have elapsed, the message "DTC" will appear on the
display to indicate activation of the Ducati Traction
Control system. When activated, the message
"DTC" is visible both on the normal display and also
within the menu pages.
The functions of the system
Note
To operate on the system, the motorcycle must
be stationary and safely parked.
Each time DTC is activated, the Traction Control ECU
will set the sensitivity level to 8; the level may then
be adjusted using the function "Traction Control
Sensitivity Level Setting (DTC SETUP)".
To disable Traction Control, enter the menu and set
"DTC" to "OFF" by pressing button (12, fig. 15)
again in position B "▼" for 3 seconds; once the 3
seconds have elapsed, the message "DTC" will
56
disappear from the display, thereby indicating
deactivation of the Ducati Traction Control system.
If the engine suddenly stops or is switched off (Key-
Off) while Traction Control is activated, the function
will NOT be disabled but will still be active (DTC On)
at the next Key-ON.
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).
Routine maintenance
To ensure that the system continues to function
correctly it is necessary to observe the
manufacturer's programmed maintenance schedule.
