Power Accessory Delay Feature
The Power Accessory Delay feature provides the cus-
tomer with the ability to operate the power windows,
and the radio for 2 minutes after the ignition switch is
turned off. If the key is removed from the ignition and the
driver door is opened prior to the completion of the
2–minute timer, the feature is immediately cancelled. The
Power Accessory Delay feature is initially enabled, but
may be enabled or disabled at the dealership.NOTE:The Window Up switch will not function with
the door open and while the system is in the Power
Accessory Delay mode. If the window is in the process of
going up, opening the door will stop the window move-
ment immediately.
Wind Buffeting
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of
pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the
ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the
windows down, or the top down. This is a normal
occurrence and can be minimized.
OCCUPANT RESTRAINTS
One of the most important safety features in your Viper
is the restraint system. This system consists of the driv-
er’s and passenger’s seat belts, airbags for the driver and
passenger, and a passenger airbag on/off switch located
in the center console compartment for deactivating the
passenger airbag system.
