32 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

Enhanced Accident Response System (E.A.R.S.)
If the airbags deploy after an impact and the electrical
system remains functional, the interior lights will turn on
and the power door locks (if equipped) will unlock 5
seconds after airbag deployment.
Also, the fuel system will shut off immediately upon
airbag deployment (gasoline models only). The ignition
switch will need to be cycled (i.e. turn the ignition key
from the ON position to the LOCK position) after ap-
proximately 5 seconds in order to restart the vehicle.
Maintaining Your Airbag System
WARNING!
•Modifications to any part of the airbag system could cause
it to fail when you need it. You could be injured if the
airbag system is not there to protect you. Do not modify
the components or wiring, including adding any kind of
badges or stickers to the steering wheel hub trim cover or
the upper right side of the instrument panel. Do not
modify the front bumper, vehicle body structure, or add
aftermarket side steps or running boards.
•Do not attempt to modify any part of your advanced
airbag system. The airbag may inflate accidentally or may
not function properly if modifications are made. Take
your vehicle to an authorized dealer for any advanced
airbag system service. If your seat including your trim
cover and cushion needs to be serviced in any way, take
the vehicle to your authorized dealer. Only manufacturer
approved seat accessories may be used. If it is necessary to
modify an advanced airbag system for persons with
disabilities, contact your authorized dealer.
