Charger active exhaust question

Hi! I bought my 2017 Charger like a month ago. According to window sticker there is active exhaust system but I did not get any remote for that. Seems to be always open. I have found this on the exhaust. Do you know what should be done to remotely close it and open? Is adding a remote difficult? Where I can read more about it? Keep in mind that I live in Poland and there is no dealership for Dodge. Those cars are rare here.

They open and close while you're driving. They open on start and will close while you're decelerating to cut down drone. While you're giving it gas, try turning your sport mode on and off, you'll notice the difference. There is no remote or switch Edit: look for the charger/challenger forums online

The valves open & close at different times. There's no remote for this, as this is not like some exhaust cutout or bypass that hot rodders do. The position of the valves will also change based on the driving mode you select, i.e. sport, track, etc.
