2016 DODGE CHALLENGER reset

When G-Force is selected, the following features will be
available:
•Lateral G-Force Left and Right
The lateral g-force measures the (sideways) left and right
force of the vehicle. •
Longitudinal G-Force Fore and Aft
The longitudinal g-force measures the acceleration and
braking force of the vehicle.
• Peak G-Forces Fore Aft, Left and Right
This shows the maximum g-forces that have been
achieved since the last reset from the DID. Peak values
are maintained through ignition cycles by the DID until
they are cleared by the driver.
• Vehicle Speed
Vehicle Speed measures the current speed of the vehicle
in either mph or km/h, starting at 0 with no maximum
value.

2. If desired, press the “Launch RPM Set-Up” button onthe touchscreen. This screen will allow you to adjust
your launch RPM for optimum launch/traction. To
adjust the Launch RPM, press and drag the slider bar,
or press the arrows on the touchscreen, to adjust the
holding RPM. Press the back arrow button on the
touchscreen when finished. The setting will be saved.
NOTE: The default RPM for launch mode is a preset
factory value. Optimal launch RPM will depend on the
engine and tires on the vehicle, as well as the road and
weather conditions. Not all RPM settings will be usable
in all configurations and scenarios. If requested launch
RPM is not attainable in a given scenario, the engine will
provide the maximum amount of torque possible to get
as close as possible to the requested RPM.
3. Press the “Activate Launch Mode” button on the touchscreen. 4. Ensure the vehicle is not moving and the steering
wheel is pointing straight.
5. Hold the brake pedal and verify the vehicle is in a forward transmission gear.
6. While holding the brake, rapidly apply the accelerator pedal to wide open throttle. The engine speed will
hold at the RPM that was set in the “Launch RPM
Set-up” screen.
NOTE: Messages will appear in the Driver Information
Display (DID) to inform the driver if one or more of the
above conditions have not been met.
7. When conditions four through six have been met, the DID will read “Launch Ready Release Brake.” Release
the brake and continue to hold wide open throttle to
launch.

Vehicle Speed
Vehicle Speed measures the current speed of the vehicle
in either mph or km/h, starting at 0 with no maximum
value.
• Steering Wheel Angle
Steering Wheel Angle utilizes the steering angle sensor to
measure the degree of the steering wheel relative to zero.
The zero degree measurement indicates a steering wheel
straight ahead position. When the steering angle value is
negative, this indicates a turn to the left, and when the
steering angle value is positive, a turn to the right.
When a force greater than zero is measured, the display
will update the value as it climbs. As the G-Force falls,
the peak forces will continue to display.

Pressing and holding the arrows will change the RPM
values in increments of 500 RPM, ranging from 2000–
6000 RPM (6.2L) and 2000–6250 RPM (6.4L). The Shift
Light setup screen may only be accessed if the feature is
enabled, press the “Reset to factory default” button on
the touchscreen to change back to factory settings, or
press the “Shift Light Off” button on the touchscreen to
turn the system off completely.VALET MODE
