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 yyvehicle such as a truck

When a severe frontal impact occurs, seat
belt pre-tensioners rewind the seat belts
immediately to restrain the occupants to their
seats. It helps the ef￢fective operation of
the seat belts and airbags.

3) Warning for Air Bag
Do not diagnose the circuit with a circuit tester. Do not attempt to modify any air bag
components including the steering wheel, air bag mounting area, and harness.
Do not impact any air bag components including the steering wheel, air bag mounting area,
and harness by hand or tools. You may get injured by sudden deployment.
The air bag components will be very hot after deployment. Do not touch them.
Once the air bag system is triggered, the triggered air bag assembly should be removed from
the vehicle and replaced with new one.
The air bag contains explosive materials, so contact Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong
Authorized Service Operation when trashing or replacing it.
Incorrect air bag inspection can be dangerous and cause injuries. The air bag system must be
disposed only by Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Service Operation.
Replace the steering wheel with only Ssangyong genuine part.
When the engine starts, the air bag warning lamp comes on for a system check. It goes out
after 3 to 7 seconds when the system is normal. If this warning lamp stays ON, then the system
may be defective. Have the air bag system checked immediately by Ssangyong Dealer or
Ssangyong Authorized Service Operation.
The seat belt and air the bags are the most effective when you are sitting well back and upright
in the seat.
A child restraint system must not be placed on the front seat. The infant or child can be
severely injured by an air bag inflation in case of an accident.
Do not carry your child on your lap while driving. You cannot resist against the impact pressure
in an accident.
The child could be crushed between you and the parts of the vehicle.
Do not place any objects on the air bag inflation location. You may get injured by those objects
during deployment.
Do not attach any objects such as a sticker, scent bottle, or phone holder on the steering
wheel pad and to the dashboard. -

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. -
