2013 FIAT 500E interior lights

covers the window. The air bag inflates in about 30
milliseconds (about one-quarter of the time that it takes
to blink your eyes) with enough force to injure you if you
are not belted and seated properly, or if items are
positioned in the area where the side curtain air bag
inflates. This especially applies to children. The side
curtain air bag is about 3-1/2 in (9 cm) thick when it is
inflated.
Because air bag sensors estimate deceleration over time,
vehicle speed and damage are not good indicators of
whether or not an air bag should have deployed.
Front And Side Impact Sensors
In front and side impacts, impact sensors can aid the
ORC in determining appropriate response to impact
events.
Enhanced Accident Response System
In the event of an impact causing air bag deployment, if
the communication network and power remains intact,
depending on the nature of the event, the ORC will
determine whether to have the Enhanced Accident Re-
sponse System perform the following functions:
•Disable the high voltage battery.
• Place the transmission into PARK.
• Flash hazard lights as long as the 12 Volt battery has
power or until the ignition key is turned off.
• Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as
the 12 Volt battery has power or until the ignition key
is removed.
• Unlock the doors automatically.
