01_08
Start-up button (01_08)
To start the engine, press the starter button, «P», after pulling either one of the two brake levers.
The immobilizer system
In order to enhance theft protection, the vehicle is equipped with a «PIAGGIO IMMO­BILIZER » electronic engine locking device that is activated automatically when the
ignition key is removed. Upon start-up, the «PIAGGIO IMMOBILIZER» system checks
14
the starter key, and only if this key is recognised will the Immobiliser system allow the vehicle to be started.
01_09
Keys (01_09)
The vehicle is supplied with two types of keys. The «A» key with a brown grip and the "MASTER" key. Only a single copy of this key is supplied, which is necessary to pro­gram all your other keys and for your dealer to perform some maintenance operations. We therefore recommend that it be used only under exceptional circumstances. The blue key «B» (single copy supplied) is used for normal operations and for start-up.
WARNING
THE LOSS OF THE BROWN KEY PREVENTS LATER REPAIRS TO THE "PIAG­GIO IMMOBILIZER" SYSTEM AND TO THE ENGINE CONTROL UNIT.
01_10
Immobilizer device enabled indicator led (01_10)
Activation of the «PIAGGIO IMMOBILIZER» system is signalled by a flashing warning light «U» (see «Analogue instrument panel» section).
In order to reduce battery discharge, the indicator LED turns off automatically after 48 hours of uninterrupted functioning.
Should the system fail, different LED flashing patterns will be provided by an Author-
ised Piaggio Service Centre with information on the type of fault detected.
Operation
Every time the ignition key is removed in the "OFF" or "LOCK" position, the safety system activates the immobilizer system. Turning the key to "ON" disables the engine
15
1 Vehicle
lock, provided that the safety system recognises the code transmitted by the key. If the code is not recognised, turn the key first to "OFF" and then to "ON"; if the lock cannot be disabled, try with the other key supplied (brown). If the engine cannot be started, contact an Authorised Piaggio Service Centre, which is provided with the electronic equipment required to detect and repair the system. The Immobilizer is also activated by switching off the engine with the RUN OFF switch. This happens even if the starter key is in «ON».
When additional keys are required, please note that data storage (up to 3 keys max.) must be done on all keys, both new ones and existing ones. Take the key with the brown grip and all the blue keys supplied to an Authorised Piaggio Service Cen- tre. The codes of keys not submitted for the new programming procedure are deleted from the memory. Any lost keys will therefore not be enabled to start the engine.
WARNING
EACH KEY HAS ITS OWN AND UNIQUE CODE, WHICH MUST BE STORED IN THE SYSTEM CONTROL UNIT MEMORY.
VIOLENT SHOCKS MAY AFFECT THE ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS OF THE KEY.
SHOULD THE VEHICLE CHANGE OWNER, IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY THAT THE NEW OWNER GET POSSESSION OF THE KEY WITH THE BROWN GRIP (AS WELL AS ALL OTHER KEYS).
Procedure start-brown key
Insert the brown key into the ignition switch (in the «OFF» position), turning it to the «ON» position. After 1 - 3 seconds, turn the key to «OFF » again and pull it out.
16
Intermediate step-blu key
After extracting the brown key, insert the blue key within 10 seconds and promptly turn it to «ON». After 1 - 3 seconds, turn the key to «OFF» again and pull it out.
In this way, a maximum of 3 blue keys can be programmed by repeating the above procedure and keeping the indicated times.
Final step-brown key
After extracting the last blue key, insert the brown key again and turn it to «ON» (carry out this operation within 10 seconds after extracting the previous key). Leave it in this position for 1 to 3 seconds and return it to «OFF».
Proper programming check
Insert the brown key, disabling the transponder (i.e., by tilting the key hood by 90°), and turn the key to the «ON» position. Perform the engine starter operation. Ensure that the engine does not start. Insert the blue key and repeat the start-up operation. Check that engine starts.
WARNING IF THE ENGINE STARTS WITH THE BROWN KEY (AND WITH A DISABLED
TRANSPONDER) OR IF DURING THE PROGRAMMING A WRONG STEP HAS BEEN CARRIED OUT, IT IS NECESSARY TO REPEAT THE PROCESS FROM THE BEGINNING.
