Ducati MULTISTRADA 1200S, Owner'S Manual, Page: 191 / 311

Control unit (A) is the "brain" of D-Air
®
: it contains the
electronic parts that analyse and process the data
sent by the sensors and trigger the airbag inflation if
necessary. The sensor designed to detect the
skidding or fall condition is integrated in the control
unit, which is located in the point nearest to the
motorcycle centre of gravity.
Warning
Do not tamper, remove or move the control unit
of the D-Air
®
system. Please contact a Ducati Dealer
or Authorised Service Centre.
Sensors (B) positioned on the fork legs detect the
accident conditions: impact against an obstacle or
rear impact. They are installed on the front fork, one
on the right and one on the left side, near the wheel
hub.
Display (C) shows the user interface that allows the
user to monitor the D-Air
®
system status.
The garment that integrates the D-Air
®
system in a
specific band, is a Gore-Tex
®
jacket or waistcoat that
can be purchased at a Ducati Dealer or authorised
service centre.
Inside the band, the electronic parts, powered by a
rechargeable battery inside the case, manage the
operation of the system. Furthermore, it retains the
airbag.
The operation status is checked by a remote turning
on/off system, whereas the battery charge level can
be checked on the instrument panel of your bike or
by pressing the specific button or viewing the LED
bar located on the band rear side.
Warning
The band, that contains the D-Air
®
system and
closes the airbag fabric coating, is sealed upon
packaging. Removing the seals nulls and voids the
product warranty. Do not remove the warranty seals.
If necessary, contact the nearest DUCATI Dealer or
Authorised Service Centre.
