Enhanced Accident Response System

In the event of an impact causing air bag deployment, 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 Acci-
dent 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 ignition key is turned off.

Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the
battery has power or until the ignition key is removed.

Unlock the doors automatically.

In order to reset the Enhanced Accident Response System
functions after an event, the ignition switch must be
changed from IGN ON to IGN OFF.

If A Deployment Occurs

The Advanced Front Air Bags are designed to deflate
immediately after deployment.

NOTE:

Front and/or side air bags will not deploy in all

collisions. This does not mean something is wrong with
the air bag system.

If you do have a collision which deploys the air bags, any
or all of the following may occur:

The nylon air bag material may sometimes cause abra-
sions and/or skin reddening to the driver and front
passenger as the air bags deploy and unfold. The abra-
sions are similar to friction rope burns or those you
might get sliding along a carpet or gymnasium floor.
