display DODGE CHALLENGER 2012 3.G Owner's Guide

Programming A Non-Rolling Code
• For programming Garage Door Openers manufactured before 1995.
• Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position.
• Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 in (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink
®
button you wish to program while keeping the HomeLink®indicator light in view.
• Simultaneously press and hold both the HomeLink
®button you want to program
and the hand-held transmitter button.
• Continue to hold buttons until the EVIC display changes from “CHANNEL # TRAINING” to “CHANNEL # TRAINED”, then release both buttons.
• Press and hold the programmed HomeLink
®button and observe the indicator light.
NOTE:
• If the EVIC displays “DID NOT TRAIN” repeat Programming A Non-Rolling Code.
• To program the two remaining HomeLink
®buttons, repeat each step for each
remaining button. DO NOT erase the channels.
Using HomeLink®
• To operate, press and release the programmed HomeLink®button. Activation will
now occur for the programmed device (i.e., garage door opener, gate operator,
security system, entry door lock, home/office lighting, etc.,). The hand-held
transmitter of the device may also be used at any time.
WARNING!
• Your motorized door or gate will open and close while you are programming the universal transceiver. Do not program the transceiver if people or pets are
in the path of the door or gate.
• Do not run your vehicle in a closed garage or confined area while programming the transceiver. Exhaust gas from your vehicle contains Carbon
Monoxide (CO) which is odorless and colorless. Carbon Monoxide is
poisonous when inhaled and can cause you and others to be severely injured
or killed.

AUTOSTICK®
Steering Wheel Mounted Paddle Shifters Or Console Mounted Shifter
• AutoStick®is a driver-interactive
transmission feature that offers manual
gear shifting to provide you with more
control of the vehicle. AutoStick
®
allows you to maximize engine braking,
and improve overall vehicle
performance.
• This system can also provide you with more control during passing, city
driving, cold slippery conditions,
mountain driving, trailer towing, and
many other situations.
Operation • When the shift lever is in the DRIVE position, the transmission will operateautomatically, shifting between the five available gears. To engage AutoStick
®,
simply move the shift lever to the right or left (+/-) while in the DRIVE position, or
press one of the steering wheel mounted shift paddles (+/-). When AutoStick
®is
active, the current transmission gear is displayed in the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC) portion of the instrument cluster. In AutoStick
®mode,
the transmission will shift when manually selected by the driver (using the shift
lever, or the shift paddles), unless an engine lugging or overspeed condition would
result. It will remain in the selected gear until another upshift or downshift is
chosen, except as described below:
• The transmission will automatically downshift as the vehicle slows (to prevent engine lugging) and will display the current gear.
• The transmission will automatically downshift to first gear when coming to a stop.
• You can start out in first or second gear. Tapping (+) (at a stop) will allow starting in second gear. Starting out in second gear is helpful in snowy or icy conditions.
• The system will ignore attempts to upshift at too low of a vehicle speed.
• Transmission shifting will be more noticeable when AutoStick
®is engaged. To
disengage AutoStick®mode, hold the shift lever to the right or press and hold the
(+) shift paddle until “D” is once again displayed in the instrument cluster. You
can shift in or out of the AutoStick
®mode at any time without taking your foot off
the accelerator pedal.
• An “UPSHIFT” message will appear in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) portion of the instrument cluster when using AutoStick
®, to alert the driver
to upshift to the next gear. The “UPSHIFT” message will appear when
approaching the maximum engine speed.

WARNING!
Do not downshift for additional engine braking on a slippery surface. The drive
wheels could lose their grip and the vehicle could skid, causing a collision or
personal injury.
ELECTRONIC CONTROL DAMPING SYSTEM
• This vehicle may be equipped with an electronic controlled damping system. Thissystem reduces body roll and pitch in many driving situations including cornering,
acceleration and braking. On the center console, there is a “SPORT” button that
when pressed will cycle through three different driving modes of operation:
Automatic (Auto) Mode
• This is the default position whenvehicle ignition is first turned on. Auto
mode will give a sporty, but
comfortable ride. Within this mode, the
suspension will adapt to the vehicle
inputs, including vehicle speed,
steering inputs, braking, and
acceleration.
• If AutoStick
®is engaged while in “Auto” mode, the transmission will automatically
shift up if maximum engine speed is reached.
• Heavily pressing the accelerator pedal may generate an automatic downshift for improved acceleration.
• This mode should be used for most driving situations.
SPORTSport Mode
• This mode is driver selectable when the vehicle is placed in SPORT mode (press the SPORT button on the center console). This mode will set suspension for
maximum performance handling and is intended for spirited driving.
• When SPORT mode is enabled, a “ SPORT” message will display in the instrument cluster.
NOTE: The SPORT setting will provide a firmer ride.
Track Mode
• In Track Mode, the transmission has a sportier, more aggressive shift pattern.
• This mode includes SPORT Suspension and affects transmission shifting in either
Auto or Manual mode.
• If AutoStick is engaged while in “Track” mode, the transmission will remain in the selected gear even when maximum engine speed is reached.
• Engine overspeed protection is achieved through fuel cut off at or near redline.

• This mode will provide aggressive shifting and is intended for spirited driving.
• The system will return to SPORT mode when the ignition switch is cycled fromRUN to OFF, and back to RUN again, if this mode is selected.
NOTE:
• A “TRACK” message will display in the instrument cluster.
• For manual transmission vehicles, the available driving modes are Sport on or Sport Off. Track is not available.

WARNING!
Measurement of vehicle statistics with the Performance Features is intended for
off-highway or off-road use only and should not be done on any public
roadways. It is recommended that these features be used in a controlled
environment and within the limits of the law. The capabilities of the vehicle as
measured by the performance pages must never be exploited in a reckless or
dangerous manner, which can jeopardize the user’s safety or the safety of
others. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver can prevent accidents.
SUMMER/THREE-SEASON TIRES
• This vehicle may be equipped with wheels and tires to enhance traction in bothwet and dry conditions.
• Summer tires are not intended to be driven in snow or on ice.
• Use summer tires only in sets of four.
NOTE: Summer tires will not contain the all season designation or mountain/snowflake
symbol on the sidewall of the tire.
WARNING!
Do not use summer tires in snow/ice conditions. You could lose control,
resulting in severe injury or death.
