2009 DODGE CHALLENGER glove box

Fob With Integrated Key
The Fob operates the ignition switch. It also contains the
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and an emer-
gency key, which stores in the rear of the Fob.
The emergency key allows for entry into the vehicle
should the battery in the vehicle or the Fob go dead. The
emergency key is also for locking the glove box. You can
keep the emergency key with you when valet parking.
To remove the emergency key from the Fob, slide the
mechanical latch at the top of the Fob sideways with your
thumb and then pull the key out of the Fob with your
other hand.
NOTE:You can insert the double-sided emergency key
into the lock cylinders with either side up.

lights will remain on when the dimmer control is in this

doors are open.
Parade Mode (Daytime Brightness Feature)
Rotate the dimmer control upward to the first detent.
This feature brightens all text displays such as the

and radio when the parking lights or headlights are on.
