EXHAUST EMISSIONS CONTAIN CARBON MONOXIDE, A POISONOUS GAS
WHICH CAN CAUSE LOSS OF CONSCIOUSNESS AND EVEN DEATH.
CAUTION
CARBON MONOXIDE IS ODOURLESS AND COLOURLESS, THEREFORE IT
CANNOT BE DETECTED BY SMELL, SIGHT OR OTHER SENSES. DO NOT
BREATHE IN EXHAUST FUMES UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
Fuel
CAUTION
THE FUEL USED TO POWER INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES IS HIGHLY
FLAMMABLE AND MAY BE EXPLOSIVE UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS. IT IS
THEREFORE RECOMMENDED TO CARRY OUT REFUELLING AND MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES IN A VENTILATED AREA WITH THE ENGINE SWITCHED
OFF. DO NOT SMOKE DURING REFUELLING OR NEAR FUEL VAPOUR. AVOID
ANY CONTACT WITH NAKED FLAME, SPARKS OR OTHER HEAT SOURCES
WHICH MAY CAUSE IGNITION OR EXPLOSION.

OF CONTRAST OF THE DISPLAY, ONCE ITS INTERNAL TEMPERATURE IS REDUCED IT WILL RECOVER.
The instrument panel has an immobilizer which prevents start-up in case the system
does not identify a key which has been programmed before.
The vehicle is supplied with two keys already programmed. The instrument panel accepts a maximum of four keys at the same time: contact an Official Moto GuzziDealer to enable these keys or to disable a key that has been lost.
When starting the vehicle and approximately ten seconds after the key is set to ON,
viewing the information in the right display, the instrument panel requests a personal
five-digit code to be entered. This request is no longer displayed once the personal
code is entered. For code entering procedure, see the "CHANGE THE CODE" section.
It is important to remember the personal code because:
•
the vehicle can be started if the immobilizer system is faulty
•
the instrument panel need not be replaced should the ignition switch
be changed
•
new keys can be programmed

the upper part of the right display (1). Therefore, be particularly careful when riding.
When this temperature rises the symbol will disappear.
MAINTENANCE ICON
The system displays the function as follows:
•
When the thresholds of the maintenance intervals have been exceeded an
adjustable spanner icon will appear (3) left of the right display. To reset the
service is necessary to take it to an Authorized Moto Guzzi Dealer andOffice.

FUEL LEVEL
In the right display, it is visible the fuel level in the tank by means of a series of notches
(6).
NOTE

BATTERY VOLTAGE
In this mode the correct battery voltage can be viewed
TIME SETTINGS
The clock can be programmed with this option. Press and hold the "MODE" selector
in the centre to access the function. Within this function, each time the "MODE" selector is pressed up or down, the time will be increased or decreased by one hour.
Once 12 has been reached, the next press of the selector will return to 1.
Press the "MODE" selector to store the value and shift to the minute adjustment mode.
Each time the "MODE" selector is pressed up or down, the time will be increased or
decreased by one hour. Once 59 has been reached, the next press of the selector will
return to 0.
The procedure ends with a central long press of the switch "MODE" or automatically,
in the absence of input, after 5 seconds.
If an anomaly is detected, the bottom part of the right display shows a different icon
depending on the cause.
See an Official Moto GuzziDealer as soon as possible.
ALARM EMISSIONS
In case of a malfunction detected by the instrument panel or the electronic control unit
on the exhaust gas emissions, the steady light of the MI will appear. It is necessary to
consult an OfficialMoto Guzzi Dealer.
02_17
SERVICE ALARM
In case of malfunction detected by the instrument panel or the electronic control unit,
the word "SERVICE" will appear in the right display and the red light of general alarm
will be activated.
If there is an immobilizer failure at ignition, the instrument panel requests you to enter
a user code. If the current code is entered correctly, the instrument panel signals the
failure by displaying the word "SERVICE" in the right side of the display and the red
general warning light turns on.
02_18
URGENT SERVICE ALARM
A serious failure is signalled by a fast flashing (two flashes per second) of the general
warning light and by the "URGENT" and "SERVICE" words alternately being shown
on the right display. See an Official Moto Guzzi Dealer as soon as possible. In these
cases the ECU activates a safety procedure limiting vehicle performance in order to
allow the rider to go to an Official Moto Guzzi Dealer at a reduced speed. According
to the type of failure, performance can be limited in two ways: a) by reducing the
maximum torque produced; b) by keeping the engine at idle speed but slightly accelerated (during this operation, the throttle control is disabled).

OIL ANOMALY
In case of failure of the oil pressure or the oil pressure sensor on the dashboard indicates the anomaly in the right display, the bulb and a fixed red light of general alarm
turns on.
CAUTION
IF THIS SIGNAL APPEARS WHEN THE KEY IS TURNED ON (STEADY LIGHTING
OF THE WARNING LIGHT), A SENSOR FAULT IS SIGNALLED AND THERE IS
NO IMMEDIATE DANGER FOR THE ENGINE.
IF THE SIGNAL APPEARS AFTER ENGINE IGNITION (THE WARNING LIGHT IS
FLASHING), AN OIL PRESSURE FAULT IS SIGNALLED; SWITCH OFF THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY AND TAKE THE MOTORCYCLE TO AN Official Moto Guzzi
Dealer USING A ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE VEHICLE.
ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT DISCONNECTED ALARM
In case no connection is detected, the disconnection icon is displayed on the right
display and the red general warning light turns on in a solid manner to signal this
condition.

TURN INDICATORS MALFUNCTION
When the instrument panel detects a failing turn indicator, the warning light flashes
twice as fast and the problem is signalled on the right display.
ALARMS PROLONGED BRAKING
In case of accidental pressing of one of the two brakes for more than thirty seconds
while the vehicle is driving more than 20 Km/h (12.43 mph) the instrument panel shows
the fault displaying the wording "BRAKE" on the right display. If the accidental pressure
of one of the two brakes is maintained for more than sixty seconds, the instrument
panel shows the fault with the steady lighting of the red warning light and displaying
the wording "BRAKE" on the right display.
The message disappears from the instrument panel when the brakes are released.
With the motorcycle stopped, this alarm is deactivated.
Mapping selection (02_24, 02_25)
The engine control unit has three different user selectable calibrations (8), displayed
as follows in the lower central part of the right display:
•
TURISMO
•
VELOCE
•
PIOGGIA
The TURISMO mode is designed for touring use of the vehicle.
VELOCE mode is the most reactive and is designed for sport use of the vehicle.
29
02_25
CAUTION
ONLY EXPERT RIDERS, RIDING ON ROADS WITH GOOD GRIP ARE ADVISED
TO USE THIS MODE. IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR WET SURFACES AND/OR
ROADS WITH LOW GRIP.
The PIOGGIA mode is designed for use of the vehicle on wet surfaces or in conditions
of poor grip. The system reduces the maximum torque supplied by the engine and
smoothly delivers it so as to prevent loss of grip. In this mode, the vehicle performance
is limited, and therefore, the maximum speed cannot be reached.
EVEN IN THIS MODE, ALWAYS USE PARTICULAR CAUTION WHEN RIDING IN
POOR GRIP CONDITIONS.
The selection of the different engine maps is realized by pressing the starter button,
which may be used to select maps once 5 seconds have elapsed after engine start
CAUTION
THE SELECTION PROCEDURE AND MAP ACTIVATION IS EXCLUSIVE ONLY
WHEN THE ENGINE IS STARTED WITH THE THROTTLE GRIP RELEASED. IT IS
POSSIBLE TO ALSO PERFORM THIS PROCEDURE WITH THE MOTORCYCLE
RUNNING AND WITH THE THROTTLE GRIP RELEASED.
To change the calibration, proceed as follows:
•
Press the starter button once. The map currently in use is shown "in negative"
on the right display
•
Press the starter button again within 1.5 seconds of pressing the first time.
The next available map is shown in negative on the right display. If the button
is not pressed again within 1.5 seconds (which would select the next available
map), and the throttle grip is not used, the new map selection is shown in
positive on the display, indicating that the new map selection has been implemented.
CAUTION
IN CASE THE THROTTLE GRIP IS TURNED WHEN THE NEW MAPPING CHOSEN
IS HIGHLIGHTED "IN NEGATIVE" ON THE DISPLAY, HENCE STILL BEING AC-
