Airbag Deployment
 Front seat passengers should not
placefeet,kneesoranyotherpart
of the body in contact with, or in
closeproximitytoafrontairbag.
To minimise the risk of accidental
injury from inating airbags, seat
belts should be worn correctly at all
times. In addition, both driver and
front seat passenger should adjust
their seat to provide sufcient
distance from the front airbags.
If side airbags/side head impact
protection airbags are tted, both
driver and front seat passenger
should be seated to maintain
sufcient distance from the upper
partofthebodytothesidesofthe
vehicle, this will ensure maximum
protection when the side airbags/
sideheadimpactprotectionairbags
aredeployed.
 When airbags are deployed,
children without proper protection
may suffer from serious injury or
even death. DO NOT carry children
in the arms or on the knees during
traveling. Children should wear seat
belts suitable to age. DO NOT lean
out of windows.
 Aninatingairbagcancausefacial
abrasions and other injuries if the
occupantistooclosetotheairbag
atthetimeofitsdeployment.
 DONOTafxorplaceanyobjects
on,oradjacenttotheairbags.This
may affect the airbag passage or
create projectiles that may cause
injuryor serious harm in theevent
ofairbagdeployment.
 After deployment the airbag
components become very hot. DO
NOT touch any airbag related
components,itmaycauseburnsor
seriousinjury.
DO NOT knock or strike the
position where airbags or related
parts are located, so as to avoid
accidental airbag deployment
which may cause serious injury or
even death.
In the event of a collision, the airbag control
unit monitors the rate of deceleration or
acceleration induced by the collision, to
determine whether the airbags should be
deployed. Airbag deployment is virtually
instantaneous and occurs with considerable
force, accompanied by a loud noise.
Provided the front seat occupants are
correctly seated and with seat belts properly
worn, the airbags will provide additional
protection to the chest and facial areas in
the event of the car receiving a severe frontal
impact.
Side airbags and side head impact protection
airbags are designed to offer additional
protection to the side of the body facing the
impact, if a severe side collision occurs.
