Engine rpm indication (RPM)
The instrument panel receives the engine rpm information and displays it using a needle rev counter.
The rev counter is displayed in mode (A) in the TRACK view and is displayed in mode (B) in the ROAD view.
The needle movement is followed by a grey wake in DAY mode (C) and by a white wake in NIGHT mode. When exceeding 13000 rpm, the needle wake turns amber yellow (for Performance engine control units the threshold is 12500 rpm), while when the first limiter threshold (Over-rev) is reached, the wake turns red and the warning light 15 ( turns on. The red wake flashes when the limiter (Over-rev) activates. If the number of rpm is lower than 1000, the needle wake is not displayed.
Motorcycle speed
The instrument panel receives information about the actual motorcycle speed (calculated in km/h) and displays the value increased by 5% and converted in the set unit of measurement (km/h or mph).
A string of dashes “- – -” is displayed with the set unit of measurement if:
- speed is higher than 299 km/h (186 mph) or the instrument panel is not receiving the speed value (“- – -” steady on);
- the rear speed sensor is in fault (flashing “- – -“).
Note
If the instrument panel does not receive any information on the unit of measurement, the last unit of measurement set is displayed flashing.
Gear
The instrument panel receives information about the gear engaged and displays the corresponding value.
If a gear is engaged, the displayed value may range from 1 to 6, while if in neutral N is displayed and the Neutral warning light (2, turns on.
Dash “-” steady and Neutral (warning light 2 flashings are displayed on the instrument panel in case of gear sensor fault.
Note
If the display shows “-” steady on and the Neutral light is off, then the gearbox could be in a mechanically unstable position; in such a case, up/downshift until the correct gear is indicated.
Clock
The instrument panel shows the time in the following format:
- A.M. (from 12:00 to 11:59) or P.M. (from 12:00 to 11:59).
- hh (hours) : mm (minutes);
In case of a power off (Battery Off), upon the following Key-On, the instrument panel displays 4 dashes ” – – : – – ” steadily and with flashing colon and “A.M.” steadily, until clock is set through the Setting Menu.
Engine Coolant temperature
The instrument panel displays the engine temperature value through a graduated scale divided into 5 notches between “LO” and “HI” symbols.
The temperature display range goes from +40°C to+125°C (+104°F ÷ +257°F).
When the temperature is higher than +125°C
(+257°F), the graduated scale is replaced by the red flashing “HIGH” message.
Attention
In case of overheating, if possible, it is recommended to ride at a reduced speed to allow the cooling system to lower the engine temperature. If this is not possible due to traffic conditions, stop and turn the engine off.
If the motorcycle continues to be used when the engine is overheated, severe damage may occur.
When the engine temperature returns to normal, continue riding by frequently checking the instrument panel indication.
Riding Mode (RIDING MODE)
The Riding Mode can be selected from the instrument panel. Three preset riding modes are available: RACE, SPORT, and STREET.
The selected and active riding mode is displayed in the central part of the display, between the speed value and the rev counter.
Attention
Ducati recommends changing the Riding mode when the motorcycle is stopped. If the riding mode is changed while riding, be very careful (it is recommended to change the Riding mode at a low speed).
Every Riding Mode contains the following parameters, set by Ducati or customized by the user through the setting function pages:
- a specific engine power that will change throttle behavior (HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW);
- a specific level of intervention for the DTC traction control (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, OFF);
- a specific ABS calibration (1, 2, 3);
- a specific level of intervention for the DWC (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, OFF);
- a specific level of intervention for the DSC control of side slipping of the rear tyre (1, 2, 3, OFF);
- a specific level of intervention of the EBC engine brake control system (1, 2, 3, OFF);
- a specific DQS level (UP/DOWN, OFF)
A different standard screen layout (TRACK, ROAD) is associated to every riding mode; it is set by Ducati or customized by the user from the setting function page; the layouts set by Ducati are associated to the Riding modes as follows:
- TRACK layout for the RACE Riding mode (Fig 8);
- ROAD layout for the SPORT Riding mode (Fig 9);
- ROAD layout for the STREET Riding mode (Fig 9);
