Piaggio MP3 300 HPE - Owner's Manual > The immobilizer system
In order to enhance theft protection, the vehicle is equipped with a "PIAGGIO IMMOBILIZER " electronic engine locking device that is activated automatically when the ignition switch is removed. Upon start-up, the "PIAGGIO IMMOBILIZER" system checks the starter key, and only if this key is recognised will the Immobiliser system allow the vehicle to be started.
