1. OVERVIEW

Collision sensors, a kind of impact G (acceleration) sensor, detect the lateral and longitudinal collisions

and determine whether or not to deploy air bags. The roles of each collision sensor are as follows:

Front G sensors (inside the air bag unit))

Send signals to the front air bags (driver and passenger air bags) and the driver's and front

passenger's seat belt pretensioners. When the front collision G sensor sends out only the air bag

deployment signal, the signal deploys the two front air bags and activates their seat belt

pretensioners.

Once an air bag deploys, its repair parts vary according to the deployment situation and damage to the

vehicle from collision. Needed repairs also slightly vary between the front air bags and the curtain air

bags. The following are the differences:

Replacement parts when the front air bags deploy:

Air bag unit and its wiring (including connector), seat belt pretensioner and its wiring (including

connector), whole front air bags, instrument panel (for vehicle with passenger air bag)

For the air bag system in KORANDO SPORTS, the seat belt pretensioners on both sides as well as the

driver/passenter air bags are deplyed when the front air bag is deployed like as they did.

Air Bag Unit (SDM)

The collision G sensor is installed inside
this. And it sends out signals to deploy the
front air bags (driver and passenger air
bags) and/or the driver and passenger
seat belt retensioners. When the front
collision G sensor sends out only the air
bag deployment signal, the signal deploys
the two front air bags and activates their
seat belt pretensioners.
