Ram 1500/2500/3500: Driver Adjustable Pedals - If Equipped
The adjustable pedals system is designed to allow a
greater range of driver comfort for steering wheel tilt and
seat position. This feature allows the brake, accelerator,
and clutch pedals (if equipped) to move toward or away
from the driver to provide improved position with the
steering wheel.
The adjustable pedal switch is located to the left side of
the steering column.
Adjustable Pedals Switch
- The pedals can be adjusted with the ignition OFF.
- The pedals cannot be adjusted when the vehicle is in
REVERSE or when the Electronic Speed Control System
is on. The following messages will be displayed on
vehicles equipped with the Electronic Vehicle Information
System (EVIC) if the pedals are attempted to be adjusted when the system is
locked out ("Adjustable
Pedal Disabled - Cruise Control Engaged" or "Adjustable
Pedal Disabled - Vehicle In Reverse".
NOTE:
- Always adjust the pedals to a position that allows full
pedal travel.
- Further small adjustments may be necessary to find
the best possible seat/pedal position.
- For vehicles equipped with Driver Memory Seat, you
can use your Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter
or the memory switch on the driver's door trim panel
to return the adjustable pedals to pre-programmed
positions. Refer to "Driver Memory Seat" in "Understanding
The Features Of Your Vehicle" for further
information.
CAUTION!
Do not place any article under the adjustable pedals
or impede its ability to move as it may cause damage
to the pedal controls. Pedal travel may become limited
if movement is stopped by an obstruction in the
adjustable pedal's path.
WARNING!
Do not adjust the pedals while the vehicle is moving.
You could lose control and have an accident. Always
adjust the pedals while the vehicle is parked.
