Operating condition
In the event of moderate to severe frontal
collision, sensors perceive that the vehicle is
decelerating rapidly, and the control unit
immediately commands the airbag to inflate
instantaneously.
Precautions
The airbags may inflate if the bottom of the
vehicle experiences a strong impact such as.
When the vehicle hits a curb.
When the vehicle falls into or crosses a deep
hole or trench.
When the vehicle impacts the road surface
after climbing over a step.
When the vehicle rolls 90° or 180°, the airbag
may inflate, but will not be effective.
The airbags may not inflate if the vehicle
experiences a strong impact from one of the
following.
A frontal collision against a concrete wall at
a speed less than 25 km/h.
A frontal collision with an object with a
small surface area, such as a fixed utility
pole or a tree, at a speed less than 35 km/h.
The deformation or movement of the object
that the vehicle collides with reduces the
impact of the collision. This may cause the
airbag not to inflate.
If the vehicle hits a lorry from behind and
gets pinned under the trailer, the sensors
will detect a weaker impact, and the airbags
may not inflate.
Even when the vehicle’s speed is high, the
airbags sometimes do not deploy because
of the angle or direction of the collision.
Do not sit too close to the steering wheel or
instrument panel.
Under normal driving conditions, the driver
should maintain good posture while
keeping an appropriate distance from the
steering wheel.
When driving a vehicle normally, the driver
shall stay away from the steering wheel as
far as possible while maintaining the correct
driving position.
The front seats should be as far away as
possible from the instrument panel.
All occupants in the vehicle should wear
their seat belts properly as a protective
restraint.
When driving, passengers should not sit on
the edge of the seat or lean against the
instrument panel.
This is because the front airbags inflate very
rapidly and with great force and may harm or
kill a passenger sitting too close.
Children should not stand in front of an
airbag.
An airbag may harm or kill a child when it
inflates. All children should sit in the rear
seat and wear their seat belt properly as a
protective restraint.
Note the following precautions, otherwise,
these items may cause serious injury to the
occupants when an airbag inflates.
Do not place objects on the instrument panel
or place objects such as umbrellas close to
the instrument panel.
Do not leave the glove box open.
Do not hang any object from the window
glass or inside rearview mirror.
Do not place ornaments on the steering
wheel horn.
Do not place any luggage, pets, or other
items between the airbag and the driver or
front passenger.
Please Do not use water or cleansers to clean
the interior of the vehicle.
The airbag module is the device that inflates
the airbag. If it gets wet, it will affect the
operation of the airbag and may cause
serious injury or even death.
Please Do not apply anything like sealing wax
or film over the airbag covers. Otherwise, this
may prevent the airbag from inflating normally.
