34 1-2 Airbag system
Warning (continued)
●
From the date of manufacture (the date of manufacture marked in the car
certificate), please be sure to replace the airbag system within 10 years; the
replacement work should be performed by BYD Auto Authorized Service Station. If
you have replaced one part of the airbag system before the date, please keep the
relevant replacement record; when the car is transferred, please hand it over with all
other documents to the new owner.
●
When the car or the parts of airbag system are disposed, please observe the related
safety regulations and disposal procedures.
●
The airbag system has strong anti-interference and anti- disturbance abilities to
anything around it. However, do not use the car in an electromagnetic environment
beyond the state permission range to avoid accidents.
●
For the airbag system in the car, various misuses and common road conditions have
been fully taken into account. However, do not cause serious collision of the bottom
of the car or drive the car on harsh road conditions to avoid accidents.
●
After a collision of the car, although the airbag module is not triggered and the
pre-tensioned seatbelt is not locked, the airbag computer will be encrypted in order
to protect the passengers from the high-voltage risk; it is recommended to contact
BYD Auto Authorized Service Station for inspection.
●
Please read the user manual carefully. If you want to transfer or dispose your car,
please inform the new owner or the disposal organization that your car is equipped
with airbag systems and advise them to read the manual carefully.
●
After the airbag system is triggered, do not directly contact with the airbag module
assembly (otherwise it may cause burns or physical discomfort); it is recommended
to contact BYD Auto Authorized Service Station for disposal. Once the airbag
system is triggered, a new one must be replaced in a timely manner.
●
The front (side) airbag system is only triggered in case of a serious front (side)
collision. That the airbag system is not triggered does not mean that there is a fault
from the airbag system itself. Any improper repair or no repair of the damaged part
on the car may affect the normal operation of the airbag system.
●
Do not use any seat trim to cover the inflatable port of the side airbag; otherwise
these trim may prevent the side airbags from normal deployment, resulting in
serious injury or even death.
●
Do not disassemble or repair A-pillar, roof, B-pillar, and C-pillar containing curtain
airbags. These changes can cause the airbag system fault or accidental triggering of
curtain airbags, resulting in serious injury or even death.
●
The manufacturer will not be responsible for any direct or indirect losses from any
damage caused by follow the above instructions.
