triggered.
In the event of minor frontal collision,
side collision, rear collision or roll-over,
generally the SRS airbag
won’t be
triggered. In such accidents, the seat
belts, if properly fastened, can protect
the driver and passengers.
The decisive factor of triggering the
airbag system: compare and judge
the deceleration curve generated in
collision and obtained by the
electronic control unit (ECU) with the
set value comprehensively. If the
deceleration and other signals
generated and measured in case of
collision is lower than the reference
value preset in the ECU, the airbag
will not be triggered, even though the
car may have already severely
deformed in the accident.
BYD Auto has fully taken into account
the various misuse and road
conditions in setting ECU of the airbag
system. Please use the car correctly
by following the instruction manual.
Otherwise, the expected effect of SRS
cannot be guaranteed.
Tips
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). Gas released at SRS air
bag deployment may have some
odour and affect the appetite, but
will not lead to poisoning of
passengers. After the SRS air bag
has been deployed, a small
amount of smoke will be released.
This is a normal phenomenon.
Passengers who come into
contact with a deploying SRS air
bag may suffer some minor
bruising.
When the SRS air bag is
deployed, white powder may be
produced, which may be of
discomfort to some people (e.g.
pregnant women, allergic
patients or respiratory disease
sufferers). Please open the
doors or windows for ventilation,
or leave the car if it is safe to do
so, and clear off any residue
from the body as soon as
possible.
