3. Safety Operating Instructions
Driver’s knee airbag *
The driver’s knee airbag is installed inside the
instrument panel (as indicated by the dotted
dash) marked with “AIRBAG”.
In the event of a frontal collision which is
severe enough to meet the triggering condition
of driver’s knee airbag, the driver’s knee airbag
will be triggered by the system and deploy
rapidly to assist the seat belt in protecting the
driver.
In certain collision accidents, the system may
simultaneously trigger other airbags.
WARNING
Do not attach or place any decorative
objects on the surface of instrument
panel, because when the vehicle is
running or the airbag deploys, these
objects will fall, be knocked over and
roll around in the vehicle, affecting the
driver and hurting the passengers in the
vehicle.

in the following cases:
-
The vehicle power switch set to “ACC” or
“OFF” position.
-
Minor frontal collision.
