Operation
The indicator lamps 3 through 6 will illumi-
nate to show the current position of the
vehicle. Flashing indicator lamps will show a
position which the system is working to
achieve. When raising, if multiple indicator
lamps are flashing on the “UP” button, the
highest flashing indicator lamp is the posi-
tion the system is working to achieve. Whenlowering, if multiple indicators are flashing
on the "DOWN" button the lowest solid indi-
cator lamp is the position the system is work-
ing to achieve.
Pushing the “UP” button once will move the
suspension one position higher from the cur-
rent position, assuming all conditions are
met (i.e. engine running, speed below thresh-
old, etc). The “UP” button can be pushed
multiple times, each push will raise the re-
quested level by one position up to a maxi-
mum position of OR2 or the highest position
allowed based on current conditions (i.e. ve-
hicle speed, etc).
Pushing the “DOWN” button once will move
the suspension one position lower from the
current level, assuming all conditions are met
(i.e. engine running, doors closed, speed be-
low threshold, etc). The “DOWN” button can
be pressed multiple times. Each push will
lower the requested level by one position
down to a minimum of Park Mode or the
lowest position allowed based on current con-
ditions (i.e. vehicle speed, etc.)

cur.
Guidelines For Track Use
NOTE:
Because of the extreme conditions encoun-
tered during track use, any damage or wear
associated with track use may not be covered
by warranty.
• If your SRT vehicle is equipped with Drive
Modes they will alter the vehicle’s perfor-
mance in various driving situations. It is
recommended that your vehicle operates in
SPORT or TRACK modes during the track
event.
• Prior to each track event/day, verify all flu-
ids are at the correct levels. Refer to “Fluid
Capacities” in “Technical Specifications”
for further information.
• Prior to each track event, verify the front
and rear brake pads have more than ½ pad
thickness remaining. If the brake pads re-
quire changing, please burnish prior to
track outing at full pace.
NOTE:
Use of DOT 4 brake fluid is suggested for
extended track usage due to increased ther-
mal capacity.• At the conclusion of each track event, it is
recommended that a brake bleed procedure
is performed to maintain the pedal feel and
stopping capability of your Brembo High
Performance brake system.
• It is recommended that each track outing
should end with a minimum of one cool
down lap using minimal braking.
• If equipped with a removable lower front
fascia grille, it is recommended to remove it
for track use during warm/hot weather to
improve cooling airflow to critical pow-
ertrain and cooling system components.
• All SRT vehicles are track tested for
24 hours of endurance, however, it is rec-
ommended that suspension system, brake
system, prop shaft, and ½ shaft boots
should be checked for wear or damage after
every track event.
• Track usage results in increased operating
temperatures of the engine, transmission,
driveline and brake system. This may affect
noise vibrations and harshness (NVH)
countermeasures designed into your ve-
hicle. New components may need to be
installed to return the system to the original
NVH performance.
