1-2 Airbag system 33
Warning
●
The airbag is developed for the specific model; any changes in suspension, tire size,
bumper, chassis and other original device may adversely affect the airbag system.
Any part of the airbag system cannot be used in other models; otherwise it may
cause the airbag system fault and cause injuries
●
Please fasten your seatbelt and keep your correct sitting attitude during driving
process. If you do not wear a seatbelt, your body leans forward or you are seated
incorrectly during driving process, the risk of injury may be increased when the
airbag system is triggered in case of an accident.
●
The driver chest wheel should be at least 25cm away from the steering wheel during
driving process, to provide the driver with the most effective protection when the
airbag system is triggered.
●
Do not stick or cover any item or make any other decorative treatment on the
steering wheel cover surface, the surface near the airbag on the right side of the
dashboard, the surfaces of A, B, and C-pillar upper guards, and the surfaces near
the knee airbag guard and the seat side airbag accessories. The airbag can be
cleaned only with a dry or slightly wetted cloth and cannot be hit hard.
●
An unprotected child or a child held by an adult cannot sit in the front passenger
seat. Otherwise, when the airbag is triggered in case of an accident, it may cause
serious injury or even death.
●
There should be no other passenger, animal or object within the action range of the
driver and front passenger airbags. It is very dangerous for the child held by an adult
seated in the front passenger seat.
●
Any accessory, such as telephone holder, cup holder and ashtray, must not be
installed on the airbag cover or within its action range; otherwise the risk of injury will
be increased when the airbag is triggered in case of an accident.
●
The side airbag and the side air curtain are triggered at a high speed and the impact
force is large, so anyone cannot lean against the door in the car equipped with the
airbag during driving process; otherwise it may cause serious injury or even death.
●
Do not place any other trim or item with the action range of the side curtain, such as
windshield, side door glass, A-pillar guard, roof, B-pillar guard, C-pillar guard and
auxiliary handle; when the side curtain is triggered, the trim or item may be thrown
with the impact force from the side air curtain, or the side air curtain may not be
triggered normally, resulting in serious injury or even death.
●
Do not change any component of the airbag system, including any corresponding
label. Any operation of the airbag must be performed by BYD Auto Authorized
Service Station.
●
The airbag can only provide one-time accident protection. Once the airbag is
triggered or damaged, the airbag system must be replaced.
