●
The brake is released after an accident
and brake lights are turned o󽗈 to
support emergency rescue or recovery
of the a󽗈ected vehicle.
●
The driver can interrupt the multi-
collision braking at any time by
accelerating or braking.
WARNING
●
Never seat a child in the front
passenger seat.
●
Occupants must sit in a
proper position to maximize the
protection provided by seat belts
and the airbag system.
●
Do not disassemble or assemble
airbag components without
authorization.
●
If the seatbacks get wet from
rain or splashes, the side airbag
system may not work properly.
●
Do not use seat covers, as they
restrict airbag deployment on the
corresponding side in an accident.
●
Do not place anything between
the side airbag and the occupant.
●
Do not apply excessive force to the
side of seats equipped with side
airbags.
●
After a collision, even if the
airbag module did not deploy,
and the pretensioner did not
lock the seat belt, the airbag
computer may be encrypted in
order to protect occupants from
high-voltage danger. Contact a
BYD authorized dealer or service
provider for inspection.
Driver and Front
P
assenger Airbags
If your vehicle is equipped with driver
and front passenger airbags, when the
electronic control unit (ECU) of the airbag
system detects a moderate to severe front
impact during driving and the triggering
conditions are met, the airbags deploy.
Front airbag deployment
●
In moder
ate to severe frontal crashes,
a sensor detects a sharp deceleration
and sends a signal to the ECU to trigger
the front airbags.
●
When there is a frontal crash, the seat
belt secures the occupant's lower body
and torso in place. The airbag cushions
and protects the occupant's head and
chest.
●
When the severity of the impact
does not reach the airbag deployment
threshold, seat belts provide enough
protection.
●
The front airbag de󽗊ates immediately
after in󽗊ation, without a󽗈ecting the
driver's vision and ability to operate
the steering wheel or other controls.
●
Airbags can in󽗊ate rapidly when
triggering conditions are satis󽗉ed to
further protect drivers and occupants
in an accident.
●
A loud noise will be heard when the
airbag deploys. It will not cause injury,
