Airbag
Six airbags are installed in the Soul Electric Vehicle as shown below. Before starting any
emergency procedure, make sure the vehicle ignition is turned off, disconnect the negative
cable from the 12V auxiliary battery to prevent accidental deployment of undeployed
airbags.
Seat Belt Pretensioner
The Soul electric vehicle is equipped with driver’s and front passenger’s seat belts with
pretensioners. When the seat belt pretensioners are activated in a collision, a loud noise
may be heard and fine dust, which may appear to be smoke, may be visible in the
passenger compartment. These are normal operating conditions and are not hazardous.
The seat belt pretensioner assembly mechanisms may become hot during activation, and
may need several minutes to cool after they have been activated.
