Driver and Passenger Safety 1-30
If your car is equipped with front
airbag supplemental restraint system
(SRS AIRBAG), the driver
’s airbag
and front passenger's airbag will
explode in case of moderate to severe
frontal collision, to protect the heads
and chests of the driver and the front
passenger and reduce the injury.
How the frontal airbag works
In case of moderate to severe frontal
collision, the sensor will detect that
the car is decelerating sharply and
send signal to the control device to
explode the frontal airbag
immediately.
In case of frontal collision, the seat
belt will secure your lower body and
torso, while the airbag acts as a
cushion to help stabilize and protect
your head and chest.
Since the two airbags use the same
sensor, the airbags will explode at the
same time. However, only one airbag
explodes sometimes.
This may be that the severity of the
collision is at the critical value of
airbag explosion. In this case, the seat
belt will provide the primary protection,
while the auxiliary protection provided
by the airbag is very little.
The frontal airbag inflates and deflates
immediately, so that it won
’t block the
driver
’s sight or affect the operation of
steering wheel and other control
devices.
The airbags explode rapidly to provide
additional protection for the driver and
passengers in an accident.
A loud noise occurs 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). After the collision, you may see
smoke-like substance, which is actually
