Knee Airbags If the vehicle you purchased is equipped with a knee airbag (located inside the lower trim of the dashboard), when the electronic control unit (ECU) of the airbag system detects a moderate to severe front impact during vehicle travel and the triggering conditions are met, the knee airbag will deploy to help protect the legs and knees of occupants. 01 SAFETY Front airbag deployment ● In moderate to severe frontal crashes, a sensor detects a sharp deceleration and sends a signal to the ECU to trigger the front airbags. ● When there is a frontal crash, the seat belt secures the occupant's lower body and torso in place. The airbag cushions and protects the occupant's head and chest.
● When the severity of the impact does not reach the airbag deployment threshold, seat belts provide enough protection. Seat Side Airbags If the vehicle is equipped with seat side airbags (mounted on the outside of seatback, marked with "AIRBAG" at both sides), When a moderate to severe side impact is detected during vehicle travel and the triggering conditions are met, the side airbag deploys to protect the occupant's chest. ● The front airbag deflates immediately after inflation, without affecting the driver's vision and ability to operate the steering wheel or other controls. ● The airbag deploys within a thousandth of a second to further protect drivers and occupants in an accident.
● A loud noise will be heard when the airbag deploys. It will not cause injury, but it may cause tinnitus or temporary deafness. Front side airbags ● A cloud of dust from the airbag surface may come off when the airbag deploys. Although such powder is non-toxic, individuals with respiratory problem might experience some temporary discomfort. Rear side airbag 17
