Front airbag – basic knowledge
1. Inflating conditions:
The airbag inflating command will be
sent when the vehicle collision angle and
intensity detected by the deceleration
sensor satisfy the inflating condition,
which is supported by the following three
conditions:
– The power is on. If the vehicle is
powered off, the airbag inflating
command will fail to be generated and
sent;
– The vehicle collision direction is in
line with the direction of deceleration
detected by sensor;
– The deceleration detected by sensor
meets the inflating condition.
Note:
The national certified collision test
conditions are that the front airbag will
deploy when the vehicle at the speed of
50km/h collides with a non-deformable
and irremovable obstacle.
2. The front airbag will not inflate in
the following traffic accidents:
– Rear-end collision;
– Vehicle side turn or rollover;
– Front collision with such cylindrical
objects as telegraph pole or trees;
– Entering under the container wagon or
large vehicle;
– Collision with guardrail or other
vehicles in left/right front;
– Colliding the rear end of other vehicles
in front;
– Collision after the front airbag has
been activated once;
– The front airbag system was technically
damaged during the previous repair.
