A large quantity of non-toxic gas (nitrogen gas) is generated with a loud noise when the air bag or
seat belt pretensioner deploys. If these airborne particles irritate your skin, eyes, nose, or throat, rinse
the area with cool water. If the irritation continues, see your doctor.
The windshield glass may be broken when the passenger air bag deploys.
The air bag is a unit to save an occupant's life from a sudden accident and it inflates at a very fast
speed by gas with high temperature, which might cause injury, such as an abrasion, bruise and burn
depending on the accident conditions.
The air bag components will be very hot after deployment. Do not touch them.
The deployed air bag/seat belt pretensioner cannot deploy again. It will work when an additional
impact is applied. Once the air bag system is triggered, the triggered air bag assembly should be
removed from the vehicle and replaced with a new one.
The air bag warning lamp is illuminated for 3 to 7 seconds after the engine is started to check
the system. If this warning lamp remains ON, then the system may be defective. Have the air
bag system checked immediately by Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Service
Operation.
Incorrect inspection can result in serious injuries or malfunctions in the air bag and seat belt
pretensioner system. 12.

1. AIR BAG SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The air bag system is divided into front air bag system and side air bag system. The system protects the
occupant's body by deploying the air bags in the event of a collision. The system consists of 8 inflators
including the inflators of the seat belt pretensioners, air bag unit (SDM), and 4 impact sensors on the
front side and both sides of the vehicle. The air bag unit (SDM) determines the operation of each air bag
module and seat belt pretensioners using the crash signals from the front and side impact sensors in the
event of a collision. The front and side air bag systems are operated independently, and the body control
module (BCM) activates the auto door unlock function and various lamps including hazard warning lamp
and room lamps, when the crash signal from the SDM is received to notify others of emergency situation
and let the occupant escape easily. The SDM is equipped with self diagnosis function, and it performs
the diagnosis on the internal/external devices of the air bag system for a certain period of time after IGN
ON. And it monitors the air bag system regularly and turns on the air bag warning lamp on the
instrument cluster when a fault is found in the system, to notify the driver. The SDM has event data
recorder (EDR) function that stores the driving information data transmitted through CAN communication
from various units (vehicle speeds, engine rpm, brake application, etc.) in a crash or near crash event,
when the acceleration sensor in the air bag unit detects a sharp acceleration change, regardless of the
air bag deployment

2. WARNINGS FOR POWER SEAT
Adjust the driver seat before driving.
Make sure that the seat is firmly secured after adjusting.
Never drive the vehicle with the head restraint removed or lowered excessively. Otherwise, you
r
neck, spine or other parts of the body can be severely injured in the event of an accident.
If you recline the seatback excessively, you could slide under the seat belt and be injured severely
in a collision.
Do not put any object that could damage the seat on the seat.
The front and rear seats are equipped with the heated wire (seat warmer) system. Using the seat
warmer system excessively may cause minor burns. The following occupants should exercise
special care when using the heated wire seat.
Infants, children, old or handicapped persons
Persons with sensitive skin
Exhausted persons

Do not place anything on the seat that insulates against the heat, such as a blanket or cushion.
Make sure that the head restraints are in place and secured properly. Never drive the vehicle with
the head restraint removed.
To minimize the injuries in a collision or an abrupt stop, make sure the seatback is in the upright
position before driving. If the seatback is reclined too much, the occupant could slide under the seat
belt in a collision or an abrupt stop and cannot be protected properly by the air bag system.
3. CAUTIONS FOR POWER SEAT
You can operate the power seat with the ignition switch OFF. However, frequent operation of the
seat switch with the engine stopped can result in battery becoming discharged.
Operating more than one seat adjustment switch at the same time can cause damage to the seat
motor. Therefore, operate the seat switch only one at a time.
Do not use organic solvents such as benzene, thinner, alcohol or gasoline to prevent the seat cove
r
from being damaged while cleaning.
Do not operate the seat position adjustment switch forcefully when the seat does not move or it
contacts an object.
If the power seat is not operated, check and correct the problem before driving off.
