battery location DODGE HORNET 2023 Owners Manual

The driver’s primary responsibility is the safe operation of the vehicle. Driving w\
hile distracted can result in loss of vehicle control, resulting in an accident and personal
injury. FCA US LLC strongly recommends that the driver use extreme caution whe\
n using any device or feature that may take their attention off the road. Use of any electrical
devices, such as cellular telephones, computers, portable radios, vehicl\
e navigation or other devices, by the driver while the vehicle is moving is dangerous and could lead
to a serious accident. Texting while driving is also dangerous and should never be done while th\
e vehicle is moving. If you find yourself unable to devote your full attention
to vehicle operation, pull off the road to a safe location and stop your\
vehicle. Some states or provinces prohibit the use of cellular telephones or texting while driving. It is
always the driver’s responsibility to comply with all local laws.
This Owner’s Manual has been prepared to help you get acquainted with your new Dodge brand vehicle and to provide a convenient reference source for common questions.

DRIVING AND ALCOHOL
Drunk driving is one of the most frequent causes of accidents. Your driving ability can be seriously impaired with blood alcohol levels far
below the legal minimum. If you are drinking, don’t drive. Ride with \
a designated non-drinking driver, call a cab, a rideshare, a friend, or use public
transportation.
WARNING
Driving after drinking can lead to an accident. Your perceptions are less sharp, your reflexes are slower and your judg\
ment is impaired when you have
been drinking. Never drink and then drive.
WARNING: Operating, servicing and maintaining a passenger vehicle or off-highway \
motor vehicle can expose you to
chemicals including engine exhaust, carbon monoxide, phthalates, and lea\
d, which are known to the State of California to
cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. To minimize exposure, avoid breathing exhaust, do not idle the

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE17
Starting The Engine With A Depleted Key Fob Battery
If the ignition state/mode does not change with the push
of a button, the key fob may have a low or depleted
battery. In this situation, a backup method can be used to
operate the ignition switch:
Place the key fob in the cupholder, and then press the
ignition button.

Place Key Fob In Cupholder

NOTE:
If the key fob battery is depleted, and the vehicle doors
were locked using the key fob lock button, Passive Entry
lock button (if equipped), or the vehicle App (if equipped),
the engine must be started using the described backup
starting method. The vehicle doors can then be unlocked
using one of the unlock methods (key fob, Passive Entry
handle, or vehicle App). To Stop The Engine With A Depleted Key Fob Battery
Push and hold the ignition button for several seconds, or
push it three times quickly.
NOTE:

The ignition button will not activate if the key fob is
inside the rear cargo compartment while the liftgate is
open.
 If the ignition is in the ON/RUN position for 30 minutes
while the gear selector is in PARK, the ignition will auto -
matically be placed in the OFF position.
 For information on normal starting, see
Úpage 80.
 When opening the driver's door and the ignition is in
the ON/RUN (engine not running) position, a chime will
sound to remind you to place the ignition in the OFF
position. In addition to the chime, the “Vehicle On”
message will display in the cluster.
Disabling A Key Fob Left Inside The Vehicle
The key fob can be disabled from starting the vehicle if it
is left in the passenger compartment. To do this, proceed
as follows:

1. Close all doors and the liftgate.

2. Push the lock button on another key fob twice, or push the Passive Entry lock button on the door handle
(with another key fob within range), waiting three
seconds between each push.
3. Wait 30 seconds without unlocking the vehicle or opening any doors. To reactivate the previously disabled key fob, the vehicles
must be either unlocked or started with a key fob.
WARNING!

When exiting the vehicle, always remove the key fob
from the vehicle and lock your vehicle.
 Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle.
 Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or others
could be seriously or fatally injured. Children should
be warned not to touch the parking brake, brake
pedal or the gear selector.
 Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in
a location accessible to children, and do not leave
the ignition of a vehicle equipped with Keyless
Enter ‘n Go™ in the ON/RUN position. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or move the
vehicle.
 Do not leave children or animals inside parked vehi -
cles in hot weather. Interior heat buildup may cause
serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked vehicle is an invitation for thieves. Always
remove key fob from the vehicle and lock all doors
when leaving the vehicle unattended.

opens, the sunroof glass fully opens, followed by the
glass fully closing then the sunshade fully closing.
3. Release the switch once all of the operations stop. Re-initialization of the sunroof motor is now
complete.
NOTE:If the switch is released prior to full completion of the oper -
ations described, the entire re-initialization procedure
must be repeated from step 1.
4. Confirm express operations for the sunroof glass and sunshade are functional for opening and closing
operations.
SUNROOF MAINTENANCE
Use only a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth to clean

62GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
HANDS-FREE LIFTGATE — IF EQUIPPED

Hands-Free Liftgate Activation Zone

To open or close the liftgate using hands-free activation,
use a straight in and out kicking motion under the vehicle
activation zone in the general location below the rear
license plate. Do not move your foot sideways or in a
sweeping motion or the sensors may not detect the
motion.
Move your foot under the fascia/bumper, simulating a
kick. When you have completed this movement, withdraw
your leg. To activate the liftgate, both sensors must detect
your leg. If it is closed, the Hands-Free Liftgate unlocks and opens
completely, and with another movement of the foot, it
stops. A further movement of the foot reverses the
direction and closes the liftgate completely, if you do not
stop it again.
If it is open, with a movement of the foot, the Hands-Free
Liftgate closes completely, and with another movement of
the foot, it stops. If the liftgate is stopped, another
movement of the foot will reverse the direction and open
it completely.
NOTE:

To conserve the battery charge, avoid performing this
operation repeatedly with the engine off.

 Opening or closing the Hands-Free Liftgate requires a
valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the door
handle. If a valid Passive Entry key fob is not within 5 ft
(1.5 m), the liftgate will not respond to any kicks.

 The Hands-Free Liftgate feature may be turned on or
off through the Uconnect system
Úpage 130.
 The Hands-Free Liftgate feature should be turned off
during jacking, tire changing, manual car wash, and
vehicle service. 
The Hands-Free Liftgate feature can be activated by
any metallic object making a similar in-and-out motion
under the rear fascia/bumper, such as cleaning using
a metal broom.
 The Hands-Free Liftgate will only operate when the
transmission is in PARK.
 If anything obstructs the Hands-Free Liftgate while it is
opening or closing, the liftgate will automatically
reverse to the closed/open position, provided it meets
sufficient resistance.
 There are pinch sensors attached to the side of the lift -
gate opening. Light pressure anywhere along these
strips will cause the liftgate to return to the open posi -
tion.

 If the power liftgate encounters multiple obstructions
within the same cycle, the system will automatically stop.
If this occurs, the liftgate must be operated manually.

 The power liftgate will release, but not power open, in
temperatures below −12°F (−24°C). Be sure to
remove any buildup of snow or ice from the liftgate
before opening the liftgate.
 If the liftgate is left open for an extended period of time
(approximately one hour), the liftgate may need to be
closed manually to reset power liftgate functionality.

176SAFETY
Air Bag Warning Light
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)
monitors the readiness of the electronic parts
of the air bag system whenever the ignition
switch is in the START or ON/RUN position.
If the ignition switch is in the OFF position, the air bag
system is not on and the air bags will not inflate.
The ORC contains a backup power supply system that may
deploy the air bag system even if the battery loses power
or it becomes disconnected prior to deployment.
The ORC turns on the Air Bag Warning Light in the
instrument panel for approximately four to eight seconds
for a self-check when the ignition switch is first in the ON/
RUN position. After the self-check, the Air Bag Warning
Light will turn off. If the ORC detects a malfunction in any
part of the system, it turns on the Air Bag Warning Light,
either momentarily or continuously. A single chime will
sound to alert you if the light comes on again after initial
startup.
The ORC also includes diagnostics that will illuminate the
instrument panel Air Bag Warning Light if a malfunction is
detected that could affect the air bag system. The
diagnostics also record the nature of the malfunction.
While the air bag system is designed to be maintenance
free, if any of the following occurs, have an authorized
dealer service the air bag system immediately.
 The Air Bag Warning Light does not come on during the
four to eight seconds when the ignition switch is first in
the ON/RUN position. 
The Air Bag Warning Light remains on after the four to
eight-second interval.
 The Air Bag Warning Light comes on intermittently or
remains on while driving.
NOTE:If the speedometer, tachometer, or any engine related
gauges are not working, the Occupant Restraint Controller
(ORC) may also be disabled. In this condition the air bags
may not be ready to inflate for your protection. Have an
authorized dealer service the air bag system immediately.
Redundant Air Bag Warning Light
If a fault with the Air Bag Warning Light is
detected, which could affect the Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS), the Redundant Air Bag
Warning Light will illuminate on the instrument
panel. The Redundant Air Bag Warning Light will stay on
until the fault is cleared. In addition, a single chime will
sound to alert you that the Redundant Air Bag Warning
Light has come on and a fault has been detected. If the Redundant Air Bag Warning Light comes on
intermittently or remains on while driving have an
authorized dealer service the vehicle immediately
Úpage 71.

WARNING!
Ignoring the Air Bag Warning Light in your instrument
panel could mean you won’t have the air bag system to
protect you in a collision. If the light does not come on
as a bulb check when the ignition is first turned on,
stays on after you start the vehicle, or if it comes on as
you drive, have an authorized dealer service the air bag
system immediately.

3. Once a connection between the vehicle and an SOS operator is made, the SOS Call system may transmit
the following important vehicle information to a SOS
operator:
 Indication that the occupant placed an SOS Call
 The vehicle brand
 The last known GPS coordinates of the vehicle
4. You should be able to speak with the SOS operator through the vehicle audio system to determine if
additional assistance is needed.
NOTE:
Your vehicle may be transmitting data as autho -
rized by the subscriber.
 Once a connection is made between the vehicle’s
SOS Call system and the SOS operator, the SOS
operator may be able to open a voice connection
with the vehicle to determine if additional assis -
tance is needed. Once the SOS operator opens a
voice connection with the vehicle’s SOS Call
system, the operator should be able to speak with
you or other vehicle occupants and hear sounds
occurring in the vehicle. The vehicle’s SOS Call
system will attempt to remain connected with the
SOS operator until the SOS operator terminates
the connection.
5. The SOS operator may attempt to contact appropriate emergency responders and provide them with

WARNING!
ALWAYS obey traffic laws and pay attention to the road.
ALWAYS drive safely with your hands on the steering
wheel. You have full responsibility and assume all risks
related to the use of the features and applications in
this vehicle. Only use the features and applications
when it is safe to do so. Failure to do so may result in an
accident involving serious injury or death.
WARNING!
If anyone in the vehicle could be in danger (e.g., fire
or smoke is visible, dangerous road conditions or
location), do not wait for voice contact from an Emer -
gency Services Agent. All occupants should exit the
vehicle immediately and move to a safe location.
 Never place anything on or near the vehicle’s oper -
able network and GPS antennas. You could prevent
operable network and GPS signal reception, which
can prevent your vehicle from placing an emergency
call. An operable network and GPS signal reception is
required for the SOS Call system to function properly.
 The SOS Call system is embedded into the vehicle’s
electrical system. Do not add aftermarket electrical
equipment to the vehicle’s electrical system. This
may prevent your vehicle from sending a signal to
initiate an emergency call. To avoid interference that
can cause the SOS Call system to fail, never add
aftermarket equipment (e.g., two-way mobile radio,
CB radio, data recorder, etc.) to your vehicle’s elec -
trical system or modify the antennas on your vehicle.
IF YOUR VEHICLE LOSES BATTERY POWER FOR ANY
REASON (INCLUDING DURING OR AFTER AN ACCI -
DENT), THE DODGE CONNECT FEATURES, APPS AND
SERVICES, AMONG OTHERS, WILL NOT OPERATE.
 Modifications to any part of the SOS Call system
could cause the air bag system to fail when you need
it. You could be injured if the air bag system is not
there to help protect you.
