2020 Dodge Charger Owners Manual - DOORS



DOORS

To lock each door, push the door lock knob on each door trim panel downward. To unlock the front doors, pull the inside door handle to the first detent. To unlock the rear doors, pull the door lock knob on the door trim panel upward.

 

Door Lock Knob

If the door lock knob is down when you shut the door, the door will lock. Therefore, make sure the key fob is not inside the vehicle before closing the door.

 

A power door lock switch is on each front door trim panel. Use this switch to lock or unlock the doors.

Power Door Lock Switches

The doors can also be locked and unlocked with the Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry system. Refer to“Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry” in this section for further information.

If you push the power door lock switch while the ignition is in the ACC or ON/RUN position, and any front door is open, the power locks will not operate. This prevents you from accidentally locking the key fob in the vehicle. Placing the ignition in the OFF position or closing the door will allow the locks to operate. If the driver door is open, and the ignition is in the ACC or ON/ RUN position, a chime will sound as a reminder to remove the key fob.

KEYLESS ENTER-N-GO — PASSIVE ENTRY

The Passive Entry system is an enhancement to the vehicle’s Remote Keyless Entry system and a feature of Keyless Enter-N-Go. This feature allows you to lock and unlock the vehicle’s door(s) without having to push the key fob lock or unlock buttons.

Passive Entry may be programmed on or off. Refer to“Uconnect Settings” in“Multimedia” for further information.
If wearing gloves on your hands, or if it has been raining/snowing on the Passive Entry door handle, the unlock sensitivity can be affected, resulting in a slower response time.
If the vehicle is unlocked by Passive Entry and no door is opened within 60 seconds, the vehicle will re-lock and arm the security alarm (if equipped).
The key fob may not be able to be detected by the vehicle passive entry system if it is located next to a mobile phone, laptop or other electronic device; these devices may block the key fob’s wireless signal and prevent the passive entry handle from locking/unlocking the vehicle.

With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver's door handle, grab the front driver door handle to unlock the driver's door automatically. The interior door panel lock knob will raise when the door is unlocked.

Grab The Door Handle To Unlock

 

If“Unlock All Doors 1st Press” is programmed, all doors will unlock when you grab hold of the front driver’s door handle. For further informa- tion regarding selecting“Unlock Driver Door 1st Press” and“Unlock All Doors 1st Press,” refer to“Uconnect Settings” in“Multimedia”.

With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the passenger door handle, grab the front passenger door handle to unlock all four doors automatically. The interior door panel lock knob will raise when the door is unlocked.

All doors will unlock when the front passenger door handle is grabbed, regardless of the driver’s door unlock preference setting (“Unlock Driver Door 1st Press” or“Unlock All Doors 1st Press”).

 

To minimize the possibility of unintentionally locking a Passive Entry key fob inside your

vehicle, the Passive Entry system is equipped 2

with an automatic door unlock feature which

will function if the ignition switch is in the OFF position.

FOBIK-Safe only executes in vehicles with passive entry. There are three situations that trigger a FOBIK-Safe search in any passive entry vehicle.

A lock request is made by a valid Passive Entry key fob while a door is open.
A lock request is made by the Passive Entry door handle while a door is open.
A lock request is made by the door panel switch while the door is open.

When any of these situations occur, after all open doors are shut, the FOBIK-Safe search will be executed. If it finds a Passive Entry key fob inside the car and it does not find any Passive Entry key fobs outside the car, then the car will unlock and alert the customer.

The vehicle will only unlock the doors when a valid Passive Entry key fob is detected inside the vehicle, and no valid Passive Entry key fob is detected outside the vehicle. The vehicle will

door(s).

Do NOT Grab The Door Handle When Locking

After pushing the door handle button, you must wait two seconds before you can lock or unlock the doors, using either Passive Entry door handle. This is done to allow you to check if the vehicle is locked by pulling the door handle, without the vehicle reacting and unlocking.
The Passive Entry system will not operate if the key fob battery is depleted.

The vehicle doors can also be locked by using the key fob lock button or the lock knob located on the vehicle’s interior door panel.
