2. OPERATION
1) Air Bag
▶Air bag inflates when:
In response to a severe frontal impact, the driver’s and front passenger’s air bags
deploy at the same time to supplement the seat belts to prevent or reduce any personal
injuries. -
▶Air bag can inflate when:
Underbody impact from the road surface; impact against the curb at a very high speed;
dropping impact onto the road surface with a large angle -
▶Air bag does not inflate when:
Rollover, side impact or rear impact
If the severity of impact to the vehicle is not significant and the seat belts are enough to protect
occupants. -
-
Air bag seldom inflates when: ▶
Oblique impact, rollover
Weak impact in which the sensor is unable to detect (under the inflation requirements)
Impact against narrow objects such as a utility pole or a tree
The vehicle falls into a drainage or a puddle
The front of the vehicle crashes into a high impact point vehicle such as a truck
Impact on the hood by falling stones
The air bag warning light is on
Moderate or severe impact to the middle of the vehicle body’s side structure. In that case,
only the side curtain air bags deploy. -

Do not put the seat cover on the front seatbacks. It may interfere with the side air bag inflation.
When sitting in the rear seat, do not hold onto the seatback of the front seat. If the side air bag
inflates, the occupant may get seriously injured.
Do not lean on the door. When the side air bag inflates, the occupant may get seriously injured.
Do not place any objects such as an umbrella or a bag between the side air bag and the door. Do not
place the part of your body near the side air bag. You may obstruct the side air bag or get injured by
the inflation impact.
Do not slam the front doors. It may lead to an unintended inflation of the side air bag.
Do not move your seat too close to the steering wheel or dashboard. If you lower your head, the air
bag can hit your head during inflation and can cause severe injury or even death.
Hold only the outer rim of the steering so that the air bag can inflate without any hindrances.
Do not place your face or chest near the steering wheel and dashboard. Also, do not allow anyone to
place their hands, leg or face on the dashboard. The air bag cannot work properly.
Do not hold and operate the steering wheel by crossing your arms. You could get seriously injured
when the air bag deploys.
When the air bag inflates, it makes a loud noise and smoke. However, the smoke is a non-toxic
nitrogen gas.
When the air bag is deployed, non-toxic gas will come out. This gas may cause skin, eyes or nose
irritation.
Wash it out with cold and clean water and consult the doctor if irritation continues.
When any repairs are needed for the steering wheel, or when an accident occurred without the air
bag deployment, have the air bag system checked by Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized
Service Operation.
The windshield glass may be broken when the passenger's air bag is deployed.
The air bag deployment can cause abrasion on your hands and face. -

The air bag unit (SDM) includes the lateral G sensor and longitudinal G sensor. The side air bag
sensor is installed in both B pillars.
The front air bag module, side air bag module and seat belt pretensioner are installed for each
seat.
The pretensioner operates with the front seat. The side air bag operates according to the signal
from the lateral G sensor, longitudinal G sensor and side air bag sensor.
The front air bags operate independently. -
