Dodge Challenger 2016 Operating Information Manual page 61

Front seat belt assemblies must be replaced
after a collision. Rear seat belt assemblies must
be replaced after a collision if they have been
damaged (i.e., bent retractor, torn webbing,
etc.). If there is any question regarding seat belt
or retractor condition, replace the seat belt.
Air Bag Warning Light
The Air Bag warning light will turn on for four
to eight seconds as a bulb check when the
ignition switch is first turned to ON/RUN. If the
light is either not on during starting, stays on, or
turns on while driving, have the system in-
spected at an authorized dealer as soon as
possible. This light will illuminate with a single
chime when a fault with the Air Bag Warning
Light has been detected, it will stay on until the
fault is cleared. If the light comes on intermit-
tently or remains on while driving, have an
authorized dealer service the vehicle immedi-
ately. Refer to "Occupant Restraints" for further
information.
Defroster
Check operation by selecting the defrost mode
and place the blower control on high speed. You
should be able to feel the air directed against
58
the windshield. See your authorized dealer for
service if your defroster is inoperable.
Floor Mat Safety Information
Always use floor mats designed to fit the foot-
well of your vehicle. Use only floor mats that
leave the pedal area unobstructed and that are
firmly secured so that they cannot slip out of
position and interfere with the pedals or impair
safe operation of your vehicle in other ways.
WARNING!
Pedals that cannot move freely can cause
loss of vehicle control and increase the risk
of serious personal injury.
• Always make sure that floor mats are
properly attached to the floor mat fasten-
ers.
• Never place or install floor mats or other
floor coverings in the vehicle that cannot
be properly secured to prevent them from
moving and interfering with the pedals or
the ability to control the vehicle.
WARNING! (Continued)
• Never put floor mats or other floor cover-
ings on top of already installed floor mats.
Additional floor mats and other coverings
will reduce the size of the pedal area and
interfere with the pedals.
• Check mounting of mats on a regular
basis. Always properly reinstall and secure
floor mats that have been removed for
cleaning.
• Always make sure that objects cannot fall
into the driver footwell while the vehicle is
moving. Objects can become trapped un-
der the brake pedal and accelerator pedal
causing a loss of vehicle control.
• If required, mounting posts must be prop-
erly installed, if not equipped from the
factory.
Failure to properly follow floor mat installa-
tion or mounting can cause interference with
the brake pedal and accelerator pedal opera-
tion causing loss of control of the vehicle.
