Parking - Ducati Scrambler Owner's Manual

Parking

Park the stopped motorcycle on the side stand. To
prevent theft, turn the handlebar fully left and turn the
ignition key to position (3). If you park in a garage or
other indoor area, make sure that there is proper
ventilation and that the motorcycle is not near a
source of heat. You may leave the parking lights on
by turning the key to position (4).
Important
Do not leave the key turned to position (4) for
long periods or the battery will run down. Never leave
the ignition key in the switch when you are leaving
your bike unattended.
Attention
The exhaust system might be hot, even after
engine is switched off; take special care not to touch
the exhaust system with any body part and do not
park the vehicle next to flammable material (wood,
leaves etc.).

Attention
Using padlocks or other locks designed to
prevent motorcycle motion, such as brake disk locks,
rear sprocket locks, etc. is dangerous and may impair
motorcycle operation and affect the safety of rider
and passenger.
