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 (If Equipped)

Cut off battery power to the electric motor (If Equipped)

Flash hazard lights as long as the battery has power

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 Sys-

tem.

Unlock the power door locks.

Your vehicle may also be designed to perform any of these

other functions in response to the Enhanced Accident

Response System:

Turn off the Fuel Filter Heater, Turn off the HVAC

Blower Motor, Close the HVAC Circulation Door

Engine

Electric Motor (if equipped)

Horn

Front wiper

Headlamp washer pump

NOTE:

After an accident, remember to cycle the ignition to

the STOP (OFF/LOCK) position and remove the key from

the ignition switch to avoid draining the battery. 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. If

there are no fuel leaks or damage to the vehicle electrical

devices (e.g. headlights) after an accident, reset the system

by following the procedure described below. If you have

any doubt, please see an authorized dealer.
