Sentry Key - Dodge Challenger SRT Includes 392/Hellcat 2016 Owner's Manual

SENTRY KEY

The Sentry Key Immobilizer system prevents unauthor-
ized vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The
system does not need to be armed or activated. Operation
is automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle is locked
or unlocked.
The system uses a Remote Keyless Entry key fob, a
Keyless Push Button Ignition and a RF receiver to pre-
vent unauthorized vehicle operation. Therefore, only key
fobs that are programmed to the vehicle can be used to
start and operate the vehicle. The system will not allow
the engine to crank if an invalid key fob is used to start
and operate the vehicle. The system will shut the engine
off in two seconds if an invalid key fob is used to start the
engine.
After placing the ignition to the ON/RUN position, the
Vehicle Security Light will turn on for three seconds for a
bulb check. If the light remains on after the bulb check, it

indicates that there is a problem with the electronics. In
addition, if the light begins to flash after the bulb check,
it indicates that someone used an invalid key fob to start
the engine. Either of these conditions will result in the
engine being shut off after two seconds.
If the Vehicle Security Light turns on during normal
vehicle operation (vehicle running for longer than 10
seconds), it indicates that there is a fault in the electron-
ics. Should this occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon
as possible by an authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
• Do not make modifications or alterations to the
immobilizer system. Modifications or alterations to
the immobilization system may result in a loss of
security protection.
