Check clutch and brake fluid level
The levels should not fall below the MIN marks on the
respective reservoirs.
If level drops below the limit, air might get into the
circuit and affect the operation of the system
involved.
Brake and clutch fluid must be topped up and
changed at the intervals specified in the scheduled
maintenance table reported in the Warranty Booklet;
please contact a Ducati Dealer or authorised Service
Centre.
CLUTCH SYSTEM
If the control lever has exceeding clearance and the
transmission snatches or jams as you try to engage a
gear, it means that there is air in the circuit. Contact
your Ducati Dealer or authorised Service Centre to
have the system inspected and air drained out.
Warning
Clutch fluid level will increase as clutch plate
friction material wears down. Do not exceed the
specified level (3 mm - 0.12 in above the minimum
level).
BRAKE SYSTEM
If you find exceeding clearance on brake lever or pedal
and brake pads are still in good condition, contact your
Ducati Dealer or authorised Service Centre to have
the system inspected and any air drained out of the
circuit.
