Courteous backlight function (Ducati Monster 696, 2007-2014) [Information for owner: Control devices]

This function can be used even with the ignition switch removed from the lock.

After turning off the ignition, the instrument panel remains active for another 60 seconds. To turn on the headlight, you need to move the MODE switch within these 60 seconds (rice. 9) to position B «▼» or A «▲».

Within 30 seconds after the first press, each subsequent press adds 30 seconds to the total burning time of the headlight lamp. The maximum courtesy backlight time is 180 seconds (3 minutes), which corresponds to six presses on switch 1 (rice. 9).

If 30 seconds have passed after the first press, you press the switch again (1, fig. 9) - this will not lead to additional glow duration, and after the initially set time has passed, the headlight lamps will go out. To resume the function, you need to turn the ignition on and off again.

If the battery is disconnected while the courtesy light function is operating, the function will be deactivated (at the moment when the electrical voltage is restored). This will happen if the battery has been disconnected for more than 60 seconds.
