Dodge Charger: GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL / INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DESCRIPTIONS
- Tachometer
- Indicates the engine speed in revolutions per minute (RPM x 1000).
- Instrument Cluster Display
- When the appropriate conditions exist, this display shows the instrument cluster display messages.
- Speedometer
- Indicates vehicle speed.
- Temperature Gauge
- The temperature gauge shows engine coolant temperature. Any reading within the normal range indicates that the engine cooling system is operating satis- factorily.
- The gauge pointer will likely indicate a higher temperature when driving in hot weather, up mountain grades, or when towing a trailer. It should not be allowed to exceed the upper limits of the normal operating range.
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or others could be badly burned by steam or boiling coolant. You may want to call an authorized dealer for service if your vehicle overheats. If you decide to look under the hood yourself, follow the warnings under Cooling System.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot engine cooling system could damage your vehicle. If the temperature gauge reads “H” pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air conditioner turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal range. If the pointer remains on the “H”, turn the engine off immediately and call an authorized dealer for service.
- Fuel Gauge
- The pointer shows the level of fuel in the fuel tank when the Keyless
Push Button Ignition is in the ON/RUN position.
The fuel pump symbol
points to the side of the vehicle where the fuel door is located.
NOTE:
The hard telltales will illuminate for a bulb check when the ignition is first cycled.
- The pointer shows the level of fuel in the fuel tank when the Keyless
Push Button Ignition is in the ON/RUN position.

Your vehicle is equipped with an instrument cluster display, which offers useful
information to the driver. With the ignition in the OFF mode, opening/closing of
a door will activate the display for viewing, and display the total miles, or kilometers,
in the odometer...

Dodge Charger 2011-2025 Owner's Manual: Children Too Large For Booster Seats
Children who are large enough to wear the shoulder belt comfortably, and whose legs are long enough to bend over the front of the seat when their back is against the seatback, should use the seat belt in a rear seat. Use this simple 5-step test to decide whether the child can use the vehicle’s seat belt alone: Can the child sit all the way back against the back of the vehicle seat? Do the child’s knees bend comfortably over the front of the vehicle seat – while the child is still sitting all the way back? Does the shoulder belt cross the child’s shoulder between the neck and arm? Is the lap part of the belt as low as possible, touching the child’s thighs and not the stomach? Can the child stay seated like this for the whole trip? If the answer to any of these questions was “no,” then the child still needs to use a booster seat in this vehicle...

Power Door Locks
The power door lock switches are located on each front door panel. Push the switch to lock or unlock the doors.
The driver’s door will unlock automatically if the keys are found inside the vehicle when the door lock button on the front door panel is used to lock the door. This will occur for two attempts. Upon the third attempt, the doors will lock even if the key is inside.
