Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Indicator Light — If Equipped
The “ESC Indicator Light” in the instrument cluster will come on when the ignition switch
is turned to the ON/RUN position, and when ESC is activated. It should go out with the
engine running. If the “ESC Indicator Light” comes on continuously with the engine run-
ning, a malfunction has been detected in the ESC system. If this light remains on after sev-
eral ignition cycles, and the vehicle has been driven several miles (kilometers) at speeds
greater than 30 MPH (48 km/h), see your authorized dealer as soon as possible to have the
problem diagnosed and corrected.
•
The “ESC Off Indicator Light” and the “ESC Indicator Light” come on momentarily each
time the ignition switch is turned to ON/RUN.
• Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN, the ESC system will be ON, even if it was
turned off previously.
• The ESC system will make buzzing or clicking sounds when it is active. This is normal;
the sounds will stop when ESC becomes inactive. 4

6. Sometimes, a second burnish session is required. If thebrake pads start smelling in the next track session,
reduce speed and braking deceleration to burnish
targets and follow steps 2 through 4.
7. New brake pads installed on old rotors still need to be burnished. New rotors installed with old pads should
be burnished at the track, or street driven for 300 city
miles, to develop an adequate lining transfer layer on
the rotor surface prior to track use.
8. Rotors that pulsate during track use should be re- placed. Resurfacing of the rotors is not recommended,
as it removes mass from the rotor, reducing its thermal
capacity. Resurfacing also thins the rotor cheek, mak-
ing it less robust and increasing the likelihood of
pulsation in further track use.SRT PERFORMANCE PAGES
Performance Pages is an application that provides a
display for performance indicators, as received from the
Instrument Cluster, that will help you gain familiarity
with the capabilities of your SRT vehicle in real-time.
To access the SRT Performance Pages, press the “Apps”
button on the touchscreen, then press the “SRT Perfor-
mance” button on the touchscreen, or press “SRT Pages”
in the top left of the touchscreen while in Drive Modes.
Press the desired button on the touchscreen to access that
specific Performance Page.
WARNING!
Measurement of vehicle statistics with the SRT Per-
formance Pages is intended for off-highway or off-
road use only and should not be done on any public

Only shift from DRIVE to PARK or REVERSE when the
accelerator pedal is released and the vehicle is stopped.
Be sure to keep your foot on the brake pedal when
shifting between these gears.
The transmission gear selector has PARK, REVERSE,
NEUTRAL, DRIVE, and MANUAL (Autostick) shift po-
sitions. Manual shifts can be made using the Autostick
shift control (refer to “AutoStick” in this section for
further information). Toggling the gear selector forward
(-) or rearward (+) while in the MANUAL (AutoStick)
position (beside the DRIVE position) will manually select
the transmission gear, and will display the current gear in
the instrument cluster as M1, M2, M3, etc.NOTE:
If the gear selector cannot be moved to the PARK,
REVERSE, or NEUTRAL position (when pushed for-
ward) it is probably in the MANUAL (AutoStick, +/-)
position (beside the DRIVE position). In MANUAL
(AutoStick) mode, the transmission gear is displayed in
the instrument cluster (as M1, M2, M3, etc.). Move the
gear selector to the right (into the DRIVE [D] position) for
access to PARK, REVERSE, and NEUTRAL.
Gear Ranges
DO NOT race the engine when shifting from PARK or
NEUTRAL into another gear range.
NOTE: After selecting any gear range, wait a moment to
allow the selected gear to engage before accelerating.
This is especially important when the engine is cold.
PARK (P)
This range supplements the parking brake by locking the
transmission. The engine can be started in this range.
