The seat lateral-impact air bag will not be inflated in case of
head-on collisions, nearly head-on collisions, vehicle
overturn or rear-end collisions. The seat lateral-impact air
bag \ may not be inflated in slight side collisions and lateral-
frontal or diagonal collisions.
As per the design, the seat lateral-impact air bag and the
side curtain air bag will be inflated on the side to which the
vehicle is collided. The air bag will not be triggered in all
collision accidents. For a particular accident, it shall not
simply judge whether the air bag should be inflated
according to the causalities, vehicle damage or repair and
maintenance expenses. Your vehicle is equipped with a
collision sensing and diagnosis module. If a collision
accident reaches certain strength, the module may record
relevant collision information after the collision. If you have
any doubt on the working situation of your air bag in a
collision accident, please contact the Aftersales Service
Center timely to provide professional analysis and diagnosis
for you.
How Is the Air Bag Inflated?
In the inflation process, the sensing system will send an
electronic signal to trigger the gas generator; the generator
will release gas to inflate the air bag and to make the air bag
pops up from the cover plate. The gas generator, air bag
and relevant members are all components of the air bag
module.
How Does the Air Bag Provide Protection?
The air bag supplements protection provided by the seat
belt by distributing the impact force more evenly to the
occupant’s body. However, some occupants’ bodies do not
move toward the air bags in collisions where an external
object intrudes into the vehicle. The air bag cannot provide
corresponding protection. The air bag shall only be deemed
as a supplementary device of the seat belt.
What Will Your See After the Air Bag is Inflated?
After the air bag is inflated, it will be deflated quickly.
Somebody may not note that the air bag is ever inflated
because the bleeding speed is very fast. For deflated air
bag, some smoke and dust may come out from its air event.
Warnings
When the air bag is inflated, there may be dust spread
in the air. All persons in the vehicle shall get off the
vehicle as soon as possible. If you have a breathing
problem and cannot get off the vehicle, open windows
or doors to get fresh air. If you have a breathing
problem after the air bag is inflated, please see a
doctor as soon as possible.
If the vehicle power supply system can still function normally
after a collision, the vehicle has the functions of unlocking
doors automatically, turning on the hazard warning lamp
and cutting off the fuel system after the air bag is inflated.
The driver can use corresponding function switch to lock
doors, turn off indoors lamps and turn off the hazard warning
lamp.
The deployment of the front passenger air bag may also
cause damage to the windshield.

The air bag can only be inflated once as per its design.
After the air bag is inflated, some parts of the air bag
system need to be replaced. If you do not have these
parts replaced, the air bag system will unable to
provide protection in next collision accident. The air
bag system parts that shall be replaced include the air
bag module, air bag control module, seat belt
pretensioner and other parts.

Work related to the air bag system can only be done
by technicians with corresponding qualification.
Improper repair and maintenance may cause that the
air bag system cannot function normally. Please drive
to the Aftersales Service Center for repair and
maintenance.
