Dodge Charger: STARTING AND OPERATING / STARTING THE ENGINE
Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust the inside and outside
mirrors, fasten your seat belt, and if present, instruct all other occupants to
buckle their seat belts.
WARNING!
- When exiting the vehicle, always make sure the ignition is in OFF
mode, remove the key fob from the vehicle and lock the vehicle.
- Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked
vehicle. Leaving children in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number
of reasons. A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured. Children
should be warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the transmission
gear selector.
- Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle (or in a location
accessible to chil- dren), and do not leave the ignition (of a vehicle equipped
with Keyless Enter-N-Go) in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child could operate power
windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
- Do not leave children or animals inside parked vehicles in hot weather.
Interior heat build-up may cause serious injury or death.
The gear selector must be in the PARK position before you can start the engine.
Apply the brakes before shifting into any driving gear.
CAUTION!
Shift into or out of PARK or REVERSE only after the vehicle has come
to a complete stop...
