GETTING STARTED
Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have deployed. If you are involved in
another collision, the air bags will not be in place to protect you.
Deployed air bags and seat belt pretensioners cannot protect you in another
collision. Have the air bags, seat belt pretensioners, and the seat belt retractor
assemblies replaced by an authorized dealer immediately. Also, have the Occu-
pant Restraint Controller System serviced as well.
NOTE:
• Air bag covers may not be obvious in the interior trim, but they will open during air
bag deployment.
• After any collision, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer
immediately.
Enhanced Accident Response System
In the event of an impact, if the communication network remains intact, and the
power remains intact, depending on the nature of the event, the ORC will determine
whether to have the Enhanced Accident Response System perform the following
functions:
• Cut off fuel to the engine.
• Flash hazard lights as long as the battery has power or until the hazard light
button is pressed. The hazard lights can be deactivated by pressing the hazard
light button.
• Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has power
or for 15 minutes from the intervention of the Enhanced Accident Response
System.
• Unlock the power door locks.
Enhanced Accident Response System Reset Procedure
After the event occurs, when the system is active, a message regarding fuel cutoff
is displayed. Turn the ignition switch from ignition AVV/START or MAR/ACC/ON/
RUN to ignition STOP/OFF/LOCK. Carefully check the vehicle for fuel leaks in the
engine compartment and on the ground near the engine compartment and fuel tank
before resetting the system and starting the engine.
