It includes a two-way microswitch - built in the lever
mechanism - that outputs a signal to the engine
control unit whenever the gearshift is operated.
The system works in a separate way for upshifting
and downshifting, and combines the action on
ignition advance and injection, available in the upshift
system, with controlled throttle opening for operation
during downshifting. Extent and duration of these
actuations aim at ensuring excellent engagement
smoothness under any riding condition; system
works in synergy with slipper clutch and EBC during
downshifting.
When downshifting, according to the EBC level set
by the rider, the DQS strategy changes the extent and
duration of throttle opening so as to modulate engine
brake exactly when a lower gear is engaged. With
EBC set to OFF and 1, rider obtains maximum engine
brake; medium engine brake in level 2 and the least

the throttles to ensure a consistent torque goes back
from the wheel to engine during these stages.
The system allows the rider to select among various

set to OFF to a decreasing level of engine brake at
increasing level number.
System intervention is quite important at high engine

Tips for use on the track
We recommend that level 8 be used for a couple of
full laps in order to get used to the system. Then try
levels 7, 6, etc., in succession until you identify the
DWC sensitivity level that suits you best (always try
each level for at least two laps to allow the tires to
warm up).
Tips for use on the road
Activate the DWC, select level 8 and ride the
motorcycle in your usual style; if the level of DWC
sensitivity seems excessive, try reducing the setting
to level 7, 6, etc., until you find the level that suits you
best.

adverse weather conditions or when pavement is
compromised.
ABS is an electro-hydraulic device that controls the
pressure in the brake circuit when the control unit, by
processing information from wheel sensors,
determines that one or both wheels are about to lock
up. In this case, pressure decrease in the brake circuit
allows the wheel to carry on turning, thereby
preserving grip. After that, the control unit restores
the pressure in the brake circuit, to resume the
braking action. This cycle is repeated many times until
the problem is completely eliminated. Normally, the
rider will perceive ABS operation as a harder feel or a
pulsation of the brake lever and pedal. The front and
rear brakes use separate control systems.

85
 Attention
Using the two brake controls separately
reduces the motorcycle braking power. Never use
the brake controls harshly or suddenly as you may
cause rear wheel lift-up and lose control of the
motorcycle. When riding in the rain or on slippery
surfaces, braking will become less effective. Always
use the brakes very gently and carefully when riding
under these conditions. Any sudden maneuvers may
lead to loss of control. When tackling long, high-
gradient downhill road tracts, shift down gears to use
engine braking. Apply one brake at a time and use
brakes sparingly. Keeping the brakes applied all the
time would cause the friction material to overheat and
reduce braking power dangerously. Underinflated or
overinflated tires reduce braking efficiency, handling
accuracy and stability in a bend.

86
The following table indicates the most suitable level of ABS intervention for the various riding types, as well
as the default settings in the "Riding Mode" that can be selected by the rider:

ABS RIDING MODE CHARACTERISTIC DEFAULT

OFF The ABS is disabled NO
1 TRACK This level is designed exclusively for track It is the default level for the
use, for expert riders (not recommended for "RACE" Riding Mode
road use). ABS in this level only controls the
front wheel, and thus allows rear wheel

control lift-up and the cornering feature is
NOT active.

this motorcycle are Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP in the
following sizes: 120/70ZR17 at the front, 200/55ZR17
at the rear. Using tires with different size and
characteristics from the original tires may alter the
operating characteristics of the system thus making
it unsafe. It is recommended not to install tires of
different size than the ones approved for your vehicle.

Selecting level 3, the ABS will ensure a very stable

braking thanks to lift-up control, and the motorcycle
will keep a good alignment during the whole braking
action. ABS level 3 features active cornering function
which, with vehicle leaning over, prevents wheel
lockup and slipping as much as possible, within the
physical limits allowed by the vehicle and by the road
conditions.
Selecting level 2, the ABS will privilege more and
more the braking power rather than stability and lift-

89
The choice of the correct level mainly depends on the
following parameters:
1) The tire/road grip (type of tire, amount of tire
wear, the road/track surface, weather conditions,
etc.).
2) The rider's experience and sensitivity: expert
riders can tackle a lift-up in trying to reduce the
stopping distance to a minimum, while less

Low / High beam
This function allows you to reduce current
consumption from the battery, by managing
headlight switching-on and off.
At Key-On, the high beam and low beam lights are
off, only the parking lights are turned on. B
Once the engine is started, the low beam is turned
on; with engine running the standard operation of the A
lights is restored: it is possible to switch on and off
the high beam using button (1) in position (A), or flash
using button (1) in position (B). If the engine is not
1
started after key-on, it is still possible to turn on the
low/high beam by pressing button (1) in position (A)
on the left switch; press it once to turn on the low
beam; any further time you press it you switch
between low and high beam. 3

5
Fig 125
213
If engine is not started within 60 seconds since the
button was first pressed, the low and high beam
lights are turned off.
If the low beam or high beam was turned on before
starting the engine (with the procedure described
above), the headlight turns off automatically when
starting the engine and will turn on again when the
engine has been completely started.
Turn indicators
Turn indicators are automatically reset by the
instrument panel.
After activating one of the two turn indicators, user
can reset them using the button (3, Fig 125) on the
left switch.
If the turn indicator is not reset manually, the
instrument panel will automatically switch it off after
the motorcycle has traveled 0.3 miles (500 m) from
when the turn indicator was activated. The counter
for the distance traveled for automatic deactivation is
only activated at speeds below 50 mph (80 km/h).
If the calculation of the distance for automatic
deactivation is activated and then the motorcycle
exceeds a speed of 50 mph (80 km/h), the calculation
is interrupted and will restart when the speed returns
below the indicated threshold.

Parking function

Note
If there is a sudden interruption in the battery
while the function is active, the instrument panel will
disable the function when the voltage is restored.

The "Parking" function activates the front and rear

parking lights when the vehicle is turned off so it is
visible when parked. The function is activated by
pressing the button (5, Fig 125) for 3 seconds during
the first 60 seconds after the motorcycle was turned Fig 126
off (after key-off).
Once the function is activated, the PARKING icon is To interrupt the function, turn the vehicle on and off
displayed for 3 seconds and the lights stay on as long (Key-On / Key-Off).
as the battery voltage is ≤ 12.2 V. If voltage is < 12.2
V the lights turn off automatically in order to save Important
battery charge. The frequent use of this function can
considerably reduce the battery charge. We
recommend using this function only when really
necessary.

215
Hazard function
The "Hazard" function activates all four turn indicators 7
at the same time to warn about an emergency
situation. Take button (3) in position (6) for 3 seconds
to activate "Hazard" function. It can only be activated
when vehicle is on (i.e. when key is turned to "ON",
engine condition is irrelevant). When the "Hazard"
function is active, all four turn indicators and the 10:34 a.m.

warning lights (7) on the instrument panel will flash 5

turned to "OFF") by taking button (3) in position (6).

Fig 127
216
Once the "Hazard" function is activated, if vehicle is
turned off (i.e. key turned to "OFF"), the function stays
active until manually turned off by the user or as long
as the battery voltage is ≤ 12.2 V. If voltage is < 12.2
V the turn indicators will turn off automatically in order
to save battery charge.

Note
In case of key-on with "Hazard" function still
active, the latter remains active (a temporary
inhibition of turn indicator control is allowed during
instrument panel initial check routine).

Note
If there is a sudden interruption in the battery
while the function is active, the instrument panel will
disable the function when the voltage is restored.

Note
The "Hazard" function has a higher priority on the
operation of the single turn indicators, so as long as
it is active it will not be possible to separately turn on
the right or left turn indicators.

217
The Immobilizer system
For improved anti-theft protection, the motorcycle is
equipped with an IMMOBILIZER, an electronic
system that inhibits engine operation whenever the
ignition switch is turned off.
Housed in the handgrip of each ignition key is an
electronic device that modulates an output signal.
When the ignition is turned on this signal is generated
by a special antenna incorporated in the switch and
changes every time.
The modulated signal represents the “password”
(which is changed at each start-up) by which the ECU
recognizes the ignition key. The ECU will only allow
the engine to start if it recognizes this password.

218
Keys
The owner receives 2 keys with the vehicle.
B
These keys contain the "immobilizer system code".
The keys (B) are regular ignition keys and are used to:
- start up the engine;
- open the fuel tank filler plug;
- open the seat lock.

Attention
Keep the keys separate and use only one of the
keys to start the motorcycle.
Fig 128

219
Operation
When the ignition key is turned to OFF, the
immobilizer inhibits engine operation.
If the other key does not work out either, contact the
Ducati Service network.

Attention
Any important shock might damage the
electronic components fitted into the key. Use only
one key during the procedure. Failure to do so might
prevent the system from recognizing the code of the
key in use.

220
Duplicate keys
If you need any duplicate keys, contact the Ducati
Service network with all the keys you have left.
The Ducati Service Center will program all the new
keys as well as any keys you already have.
You may be asked to provide proof that you are the
legitimate owner of the motorcycle.
The codes of any keys not submitted will be wiped
off from the memory to make those keys
unserviceable in case they have been lost.

Note
If you sell your motorcycle, do not forget to give
all keys to the new owner.

221
Vehicle release through PIN CODE

During the first 621 mi (1000 km) keep an eye on the
rev counter, it should never exceed: 5,500 ÷

During the first few hours of riding, it is advisable to
run the engine at varying load and rpm, though still

Strict observance of Break-in recommendations will
ensure longer engine life and reduce the likelihood of
overhauls and tune-ups.

250
 It is also advisable to inspect the drive chain
Important frequently and lubricate as required.
During the first 600 mi (1000 km) (Break-in
period), i.e. as long as the Odometer displays a value
lower than or equal to 600 mi (1000 km), the "orange
area" (pre-warning area on the display with orange
used for bar graph filling and to indicate the
corresponding figure) is displayed when engine
reaches 6000 rpm. During this break-in period, it is
not advisable to exceed 6000 rpm, so make sure the
instrument panel does not display the "orange area"
of the bar graph.

To achieve this, roads with plenty of bends and even

slightly hilly areas are ideal for the most efficient
break-in of the engine, brakes and suspensions.
For the first 61 mi (100 km), use the brakes gently.
Avoid sudden or prolonged braking. This will allow the
friction material on the brake pads to bed in against
the brake disks.
So that the mechanical parts of the motorcycle can
adapt to each another, and especially so the life of the
basic engine parts is not affected, avoid harsh
accelerations and do not run the engine at a high rpm
for an extended time, especially uphill.

the system inspected and any air drained out of the
circuit.

Attention
Brake and clutch fluid can damage paintwork
and plastic parts, so avoid contact.
Hydraulic oil is corrosive; it may cause damage and
lead to severe injuries. Never mix fluids of different
qualities. Check seals for proper sealing.

Clutch system
If the control lever has too much play and the
transmission snatches or jams as you try to engage
a gear, it means that there might be air in the circuit.
Contact your Ducati Dealer or Authorized Service
Center to have the system inspected and air drained
out.

Check brake pads for wear
Check brake pads wear through the inspection hole MIN
in the calipers. If the thickness of the friction material,
even in just one pad, is about 1 mm, replace both
pads.

Attention
Friction material wear beyond this limit would
lead to metal support contact with the brake disk and
compromise braking efficiency, disk integrity and
rider safety.

Charge and maintenance of the battery
during winter storage
Your motorcycle is equipped with a connector (1) to
which you can connect a special battery charger (2)
(Battery maintainer kit part no. 69924601A - various
countries; Battery maintainer kit part no.
69924601AX - for Japan, China and Australia only)
available from our sales network.

Note 1
The 1299 Panigale electric system is designed
so as to ensure there is a very low power drain when Fig 182
the motorcycle is off. Nevertheless, the battery
features a certain self-discharge rate that is normal
and depends on ambient conditions as well as on
"non-use" time.

2
Fig 183
274
 Important
If battery minimum voltage is not ensured by a
suitable battery charge maintainer, sulfation may
occur. This is irreversible and will lead to decreasing
battery performance.

Note
When the motorcycle is left unused
(approximately for more than 30 days) we
recommend owners to use the Ducati battery charge
maintainer (Battery maintainer kit part no. 69924601A
- various countries; Battery maintainer kit part no.
69924601AX - for Japan, China and Australia only)
since its electronics monitors the battery voltage and
features a maximum charge current of 1.5 Ah.
Connect the maintainer to the diagnostics socket
located in the rear end of the bike.

Note
Using charge maintainers not approved by
Ducati could damage the electric system; vehicle
warranty does not cover the battery if damaged due
to failure to comply with the above indications, since
it is considered incorrect maintenance.

275
Check drive chain tension

Important
Have chain tension adjusted by a Ducati Dealer
or Authorized Service Center.

Turn the rear wheel until you find the position where
chain is tightest. Set the vehicle on the side stand.
With just a finger, push down the chain at the point 40 ÷ 42 mm
of measurement and release. 1.57 ÷ 1.65 in
Measure the distance (A) between the center of the
chain pins and the aluminum section of the swinging
arm. It must be: A = 1.57 ÷ 1.56 in (40 ÷ 42 mm).

Important
This only applies to the motorcycle standard A
settings, available upon delivery.

Fig 184
276
 Attention
Correct tightening of swinging arm screws (1) is
critical to rider and passenger safety.

Important
Improper chain tension will lead to rapid wear of
transmission parts.

Fig 185

277
Chain lubrication
The chain fitted on your motorcycle has O-rings to
protect its moving parts from dirt and to hold the
lubricant inside.
The seals might be irreparably damaged if the chain
is cleaned using any solvent other than those specific
for O-ring chains or washed using steam or water
cleaners.
After cleaning, blow the chain dry or dry it using
absorbent material and apply SHELL Advance Chain
or Advance Teflon Chain on each link.

Important
Using non-specific lubricants may lead to
severe damage to chain, front and rear sprocket.

278
Replace the high and low beam bulbs
Before replacing a blown bulb, make sure that the LO
replacement bulb has the same voltage and power as
that specified in the paragraph "Electrical System" on
page 307.
Always check that the bulb functions before
reassembling removed parts. The figure indicates the
position of the low beams (LO), high beams (HI) and
led parking lights (1). 1

light. Switch on the low beam and adjust the aiming
of the left and right-hand beams. The height of the
upper limit between the dark area and the lit area Fig 188
must not be more than nine tenths of the height from
ground of headlight center. Note
The procedure described here is in compliance
with the Italian Standard establishing the maximum
height of the light beam. Owners in other countries
will adapt said procedure to the provisions in force in
their countries.

282
The headlight vertical position can be adjusted by

To access the main fuse, remove the left half-fairing
(page 264). E
The main fuse (C, Fig 200), is positioned next to the C D
battery, on the solenoid starter (D, Fig 200). Remove
the fuse cap (E, Fig 200), to reach it. A blown fuse is
identified by the interrupted center link (F, Fig 201).

Important
Switch the ignition key to OFF before replacing
the fuse to avoid possible short-circuits.

Attention
Fig 200
Never use a fuse with a rating other than
specified. Failure to observe this rule may damage
the electric system or even cause fire.
