Front passenger seat side airbag (if fitted)
If your car is equipped with the driver
and front passenger side airbags (as
shown on the right figure, the airbag is
arranged on the outside of the driver
and front passenger seat backrests and
marked with “SRS SIDE AIRBAG”).
During driving, when the airbag system
ECU senses a moderate to severe side
collision and the airbag triggering
conditions are met, the airbags will be
triggered to protect the chests of the
occupant on the collision side to reduce
the injury.
Seat side airbag triggering process
■ In case of a side impact, generally only the airbag on the collision side can be
triggered.
■ If the collision occurs on the front passenger side, the front passenger airbag will be
triggered even if the front passenger seat is not occupied.
■ In order to obtain the best protection from the seat side airbag, the occupant must
correctly wear the seatbelt, maintain the upright sitting attitude and be against the seat
backrest.
● Do not allow the water to wet the seat backrest. If the backrest is wetted, it may
interfere with the normal operation of the side airbag system.
● Do not cover or replace the seat backrest cover without consulting with BYD Auto
Authorized Service Station. Any inappropriate seat backrest cover replacements or
coverings may interfere with the triggering of the seat side airbag in case of a
collision.
