Ducati MULTISTRADA 950, Owner'S Manual, Page: 228 / 293

Attention
The side stand must be fully up (in a horizontal
position) as its safety sensor prevents engine
starting when down.
Note
It is possible to start the engine with side stand
down and the gearbox in neutral. When starting the
motorcycle with a gear engaged, pull the clutch lever
(in this case the side stand must be up).
Make sure that emergency start/stop switch (2), is
set to (A) (RUN).
Press switch (2) to the bottom (B) and release it.
Let the motorcycle start without operating the
throttle control.
Note
If the battery is flat, system automatically
inhibits starter motor cranking operation.
Important
Do not rev up the engine when it is cold. Allow
some time for oil to be heated and reach all points
that need lubricating.
