BYD e6A AUTO Owner's Manual
Seats, seat belts and airbags 1-47
detected in the collision is lower than the set
reference value in the ECU, the airbag won't
be triggered even though the car may have
been severely deformed in the accident.
ECU setting of BYD airbag system has taken
various common misuse and domestic road
conditions into full consideration. However,
as causes and conditions of crashes are
widely variable, for the sake of your safety,
please strictly abide by this manual to use the
car correctly and avoid misuse; otherwise, the
expected protection effect of the airbag
cannot be ensured.
Airbag protection course
Once the airbag system is triggered, air will fill
the airbags and the airbags will be inflated
and fully filled rapidly in front of the drivers
and passengers. The drivers and passengers
will move into the deployed air bags, so their
forward inertia will be neutralized and
chances of injury to their heads, necks and
chests will be greatly reduced.
The air bag which is developed specially will
absorb energy to discharge air at a certain
speed and thus reduce the action effect on
the drivers and passengers and reduce the
injury to them, after it is deployed and is
impacted by the driver and passenger bodies.
After the accident, the deployed airbag will
discharge the air completely and will not the
obscure the front view.
The airbag deployment can be finished in
milliseconds, so as to provide extra protection
for the driver and passengers in an accident.
A loud noise will be caused when the air bag
is deployed. Generally, no injury will be
caused (however, it is not excluded that
tinnitus or temporary threshold shift may be
caused, but it will be recovered quickly). Gas
caused by the air bag effect may be have
some odor and affect the appetite, but will not
lead to poisoning of passengers. After the air
bag acts, a small amount of smoke will be
released, which is a normal event and doesn't
indicate a fire in the car. Do not be panicked
by it.
Conditions to Trigger Airbag
