1-2 Airbags 29 Airbag Triggering Conditions and Precautions Airbag Triggering Conditions The airbag triggering conditions are: In the event of a vehicle collision, whether an airbag will be triggered is decided by factors such as the amount of collision energy, accident type, collision angle, obstacles, and vehicle speed. The airbag system may be triggered in special collisions. 1 Safety The airbag system does not always work in any accident, and generally it will not be triggered in the event of a minor frontal collision, rear collision or rollover. In that case, the driver and passengers are protected normally by their properly fastened seat belts. Determinants of airbag system triggering:
Decision is made by comparing the deceleration curve, generated in the collision and obtained by the ECU, and the set value. If signals, such as the deceleration curve generated and measured in the collision, are lower than the respective reference values preset in the ECU, the airbag system will not be triggered even if the vehicle may have been seriously deformed in the accident. The ECU of the BYD airbag system has been set up with considerations of common misuse and road conditions. However, due to the increasing changes in causes and forms of vehicle collisions, for your safety, please strictly follow this user manual, use the vehicle correctly, and avoid its misuse.
Otherwise, there is no guarantee that the airbags will achieve their expected effect.
