2019 DODGE CHARGER Owners Manual

When G-Force is selected, the following features will be
available:
•Vehicle Speed:
Measures the current speed of the vehicle in either mph
or km/h, starting at zero with no maximum value.
• Front G-Force:
Measures the deceleration force present on the driver
during a braking maneuver.
• Right G-Force:
Measures the force pulling toward the right during a left
turn maneuver.
• Left G-Forces:
Measures the force pulling toward the left during a right
turn maneuver.
• Rear G-Forces:
Measures the acceleration force present on the driver. NOTE:
Front, Right, Left, and Rear G-Froces are all peak
values. These readings can be reset by clearing peak
G-Force on the instrument cluster
• 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.
The friction circle display shows instantaneous G-Force as
a highlight and previous G-Force as dots within the circle.
The system records previous G-Force for three minutes. If
there are multiple samples at a given point, the color of the
dot will darken from blue to red. Vectors more frequent
will show in red; infrequent vectors will show in blue.

Dynamometer (Dyno)The system will start drawing graphs for Power and
Torque. The graph will fill to the right side of the page
(based on History time selected). Once the right side of the
page is reached, the graph will scroll with the right side
always being the most recent recorded sample.
The following options can be selected:
•Pressing the STOP button will freeze the graph. Selecting
Play will clear the graph and restart the process over

Performance Control — If Equipped
Your vehicle is equipped with a Performance Control
feature which allows for coordinating the operation of
various vehicle systems depending upon the type of driv-
ing behavior desired. The Performance Control feature is
controlled through the Uconnect system and may be ac-
cessed by performing any of the following:
•Pushing the Super Track Pack button on the instrument
panel switch bank.
•
Selecting “Performance Control” from the “Apps” menu.
• Selecting “Performance Control” from within the Perfor-
mance Pages menu.
You will be able to enable, disable, and customize the
functionality of the Launch Control and Performance Con-
trol Set-Up features within Performance Control.
Descriptions of these features are provided below. To
access information about the functionality of these features
through the Uconnect system, press the “Info” button on
the touchscreen. NOTE:
Scat and Widebody Dodge vehicles equipped with
a 6.4L engine will use SRT Drive Modes rather than the
Dodge Performance Control Pages. Please refer to the
Owner ’s Manual Supplement for further information on
the SRT Drive Modes.
Launch Mode
WARNING!
Launch Mode is intended for off-highway or off-road
use only and should not be used on any public
roadways. It is recommended that this feature 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.

This vehicle is equipped with a Launch Control system that
is designed to allow the driver to achieve maximum
vehicle acceleration in a straight line. Launch Control is a
form of traction control that manages tire slip whilelaunching the vehicle. This feature is intended for use
during race events on a closed course where consistent
quarter mile and 0–60 times are desired. The system is not
intended to compensate for lack of driver experience or
familiarity with the race track. Use of this feature in low
traction (cold, wet, gravel, etc.) conditions may results in
excess wheel slip outside this systems control resulting in
an aborted launch.
NOTE:
•
Launch control should not be used on public roads.
Always check track conditions and the surrounding
area.
• Launch Control is not available for the first 500 miles
(805 km) of the vehicle’s life.
• Launch Control should only be used when the engine
and transmission are at operating temperature.
• Launch Control is intended to be used on dry, paved
road surfaces only. Use on slippery or loose surfaces
may cause damage to vehicle components and is not
recommended.
