Ducati Diavel Owners Manual: The immobilizer system
For additional antitheft protection, the motorcycle is equipped with an immobilizer, an electronic system that locks the engine automatically whenever the ignition switch is turned off.
The grip of each ignition key contains an electronic device that modulates the output signal from a special antenna located under the seat when the ignition is switched on.
