Assigning Fob
See Figure 1. Key fobs are electronically assigned to the security system by a Harley-Davidson dealer. Only two fobs can be assigned at any one time.
Purchase replacement fobs from a Harley-Davidson dealer. The fobs can only be assigned to an individual motorcycle by a trained Harley-Davidson technician.

NOTE
- The module will arm only if the fob has been assigned by a Harley-Davidson dealer and a Personal Identification Number (PIN) has been entered in the system. Record the PIN on the Personal Information page in the front of this Owner's Manual and on the removable wallet card.
- If the fob is misplaced or fails, the rider can refer to the wallet card and use the PIN to manually disarm the system. See SECURITY SYSTEM → Arming and Disarming and SECURITY SYSTEM → Troubleshooting.
- The rider can change the PIN at any time. See SECURITY SYSTEM → Personal Identification Number (PIN).
Fob Battery
Replace the fob battery every year.
NOTE
- The reusable label found on the fob packaging lists the serial number of the fob. For reference, affix the label to a blank "NOTES" page in this Owner's Manual.
- See Figure 2. The serial number of the fob is also found on the inside of the fob.
- See Figure 2. To open the fob, turn a thin blade in the slot (1).
- Remove the battery (2) and discard in accordance with local regulations.
- Install a new battery (Panasonic CR2032 or equivalent) with the positive side down.
- Align the two halves of the fob. Snap the halves together.

Riding with a Fob
- Always carry the fob when riding, loading, fueling, moving, parking or servicing the motorcycle.
- Do not leave the fob attached to the handlebars or store the fob in a luggage compartment. Unintentionally leaving the fob with the motorcycle when it is parked prevents the system from activating the alarm.
- Do not ride with the fob stored in a metal case or with the fob closer than 76 mm (3.0 in) to a mobile phone, PDA, display or other electronic device. Any electromagnetic interference may prevent the fob from disarming the system.
- For added security, always lock the fork and remove the key when parked. If the fob is within range and the motorcycle is unlocked, tampering with the motorcycle will not activate the alarm.
Riding without a Fob
If the motorcycle is ridden without the fob in acceptable proximity, the odometer window temporarily displays "NO FOB." To restart a motorcycle without a fob, disarm the security system with the PIN.
