Ducati Diavel Service Manual: Programming/reprogramming keys
The dds diagnosis instrument is required in order to programme/reprogramme the keys. The key programming procedure is launched from this instrument.
To start the key programming/reprogramming procedure it is necessary to have at least one of the keys that start the vehicle available (i.E. It must be possible to start the bike with both the key and the pin code). If none of such keys is available it will be necessary to replace the whole hands free system.
It is not possible to start the key programming/reprogramming procedure using only the pin code.
It is possible to programme maximum 3 keys, no matter which type (active or passive).
During the procedure all keys that you want to use with the bike must be programmed. The keys unavailable during the procedure will thus no longer be able to start the vehicle (they might be reprogrammed afterwards by repeating the whole key programming/reprogramming procedure).
During the procedure the dds diagnosis instrument will request to place the keys to be programmed in succession on the antenna, also the active one. The active key will be acknowledge only through a transponder (with key leant on the antenna) to avoid interferences of other active keys within 1.5 Meters from the antenna.
The new detected keys will not be saved in the hands free system memory until pressing the "f2" icon on the dds diagnosis instrument. For this reason, in case the procedure is interrupted before pressing "f2" the keys previously stored in the hands free system will not be modified once the procedure is started with the dds diagnosis instrument, thoroughly follow the displayed instructions to complete it.

Low hands free key (hf) battery level
The activation of this (amber yellow) "warning" indicates
that the hands free system has detected that the battery
that permits the active key (1, fig. 62) To communicate and
turn the vehicle on is almost discharged.
Note
In this case, ducati recommends replacing the battery
as soon ...
Checking engine oil level
Check the engine oil level through the sight glass (1) on the
clutch cover. When checking oil level, the motorcycle should
be perfectly upright and the engine cold. The oil level should
be between the two marks next to the sight glass. If level is
low, top up with shell advance ultra 4 engine oi ...
