REMINDER
●
After a collision, although the
airbag module is not deployed
and the pre-tensioner seat belt is
not locked, the airbag computer
may be encrypted to protect the
passengers from high voltage.
In this case, contact a BYD
authorized dealer or service
provider for inspection.
Driver and Front
Passenger Airbags
The vehicle is equipped with driver
airbags and front passenger airbags.
When the airbag system electronic
control unit (ECU) detects a moderate to
severe frontal impact during driving, the
airbag deploys to assist in protecting the
heads and chests of the driver and the
front passenger to reduce the severity
of injury to the driver and the front
passenger.
Front side airbags
If the model is equipped with one side
airbag for the front left seat and one
for the front right seat, (as shown in
the gure) the airbag is mounted on the
outside of each front seat backrest where
the word "AIRBAG" is marked.
●
When a moderate to severe side
impact is detected during vehicle
travel and the triggering conditions are
met, the side airbag deploys to protect
the occupant's chest.
●
Generally, only the airbag on the
impacted side deploys in the event of
a side impact.
●
If the impact occurs on the passenger
side, the airbag on the passenger side
deploys even if there is no passenger in
the seat.
●
For optimal side airbag protection,
occupants must have their seat belts
fastened and sit upright against the
seatback.
Front Far Side Airbag
●
The vehicle is equipped with the front
centre airbag (installed in the inner
edge of the driver seat and marked

airbags:
