3. PRECAUTIONS
The warning lamp flashes and warning beep sounds when the ESP is operating
When the ESP operates during vehicle movement, the ESP warning lamp on the instrument
panel flashes and beep comes on every 0.1 second. The ESP system is only a supplementary
device for comfortable driving. When the vehicle exceeds its physical limits, it cannot be
controlled.
Do not rely on the system. Keep on the safe driving.
Feeling when ESP is working
When the ESP system activates, the feeling can be different depending on vehicle driving
conditions.
For example, you will feel differently when the ESP system is activated during the ABS is
operating with the brakes applied and when the brakes are not applied on a curve.
If the ESP system operates when the brake is applied, the brake pressure will be increased on
the corresponding wheel which already has braking pressure for the ESP controls.
Noise and vibration that driver feels when ESP system is operating
The ESP system may transfer noise and vibration to the driver due to the pressure changes
caused by the motor and valve operations in a very short period of time. And, keep in mind that
the output and vehicle speed could be decreased without rpm increase due to the ASR function
that controls the engine power. -

ARP Operation
During the ARP operation, vehicle safety (rollover prevention) takes the first priority and thus,
stronger engine control is in effect. Consequently, the vehicle speed decreases rapidly, so the
driver must take caution for the vehicle may drift away from the lane. -

4. SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM
When equipped with ABS, the braking force at each wheel will be controlled with 3-channel 4-sensor
method. And when equipped with ESP, 4 wheels will be controlled independently with 4-channel
method. (When controlling ABS system only, it will be operated with 3-channel method.) When
compared to the vehicle equipped with ABS/EBD only, the internal hydraulic circuit has a normally-open
separation valve and a shuttle valve in primary circuit and in secondary circuit. When the vehicle brakes
are not applied during engine running or when applying the non-ABS operating brakes, the normally-
open separation valve and the inlet valve are open, whereas the normally-closed shuttle valve and the
outlet valve are closed. When the ESP system is operating, the normally-open separation valve will be
closed by the solenoid valve operation and the hydraulic circuit will be established by the shuttle valve.
Then, the inlet and outlet valves will be
closed or open depending on the braking pressure increase, decrease or unchanged conditions.

1) Hydraulic Circuit Diagram
When the ESP operates during vehicle movement, the ESP warning lamp on the instrument panel
flickers and beep comes on every 0.1 second. The ESP operation shows that the vehicle stability is
extremely unstable and it is used to warn the driver. The ESP system is just a supplementary system
for the vehicle motion and it cannot control the vehicle when it exceeds the physical limits. Do not
solely rely on the system but be advised to drive the vehicle safely.
When the ESP system activates, the driving feeling can be different depending on vehicle driving
conditions. For example, you will feel differently when the ESP system is activated during when ABS
is operating with the brakes applied and when brakes are not applied on a curve. Thus, the ESP
system would make the driver feel more abruptly when the brakes are applied during the ESP
system activation.
The ESP system may transfer noise and vibration to the driver due to the pressure changes caused
by the motor and valve operations in a very short period of time. Extreme cornering will trigger the
ESP operation and this will make the driver feel noise and vibration due to sudden brake application.
Also, the ESP system controls the engine output. So, the driver may notice the engine output
decrease even when the accelerator pedal is being applied.

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. -

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 effective operation of the
seat belts and airbags.
2) Pre-tensioner
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. -
