60 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 approximately 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.
