BYD SEAL - Driver and Front Passenger Airbags

●
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
Passenger 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 moderate 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,
but it may cause tinnitus or temporary
deafness.
●
A cloud of dust from the airbag surface
may come o󽗈 when the airbag deploys.
Although such powder is non-toxic,
individuals with respiratory problem
might experience some temporary
discomfort.
