Airbag Triggering Conditions
The airbag is designed to be triggered
under the following conditions: severe
frontal collision accidents and some
special collision accidents.
In case of minor front collision, side
collision, rear collision or roll-over,
generally airbag system won’t be
triggered. In such accidents, the seat
belt, if fastened, can protect the driver
and passenger in the normal way.
The decisive factor for triggering the
airbag system is the result of judgment
through comprehensive intelligent
comparison of the deceleration curve,
which is produced in a collision and
acquired by the electronic control unit
(ECU), with the set value. If the signals,
such as deceleration, produced and
detected in the collision is lower than the
set reference value in the ECU, the
airbag won’t be triggered even though
the car may have been severely
deformed in the accident.
ECU setting of BYD airbag system has
taken various common misuse and
domestic road conditions into full
consideration. However, as causes and
conditions of crashes are widely variable,
for the sake of your safety, please
strictly abide by this manual to use the
car correctly and avoid misuse;
otherwise, the expected protection effect
of the airbag cannot be ensured.
Protection Principle of Airbag
Once the airbag system is triggered, air
will be immediately inflated into the
airbag and make it expand rapidly in
front of the driver and the passenger.
The occupants will fall into the expanded
airbag and the forward inertia is reduced,
thereby reducing the severity of injury to
their heads, necks and chests.
The specially designed airbag can, after
expansion, absorb energy when
pressed by the body of the driver and
the passenger in an accident, and
discharge the air out at a certain rate so
as to reduce the force applied by the
airbag on the occupants, further
relieving injuries to them. After accident,
the airbag is deflated as air in the bag is
discharged, so the front view of the
driver is not affected.
The airbag can be expanded within a
few fractions of a second so as to
provide extra protection for the driver
and the passenger in accidents.
Airbag expansion can produce a rather
loud noise but, in general, won’t cause
injuries (the possibility of ear ringing or
temporary deafness exists, but these
problems can recover soon). The gas
produced in deployment of the airbag
may have some smell but won’t lead to
occupant poisoning. Normally a little
smoke will be emitted after the airbag is
deployed. This is not indication of a fire,
so please do not worry about it.
