Airbag Deployment*
A contactor inside the hybrid battery is
designed to open upon rear impact
detection or one or more air bags
deploy. This will cause current flow in
the 36 volt cable to be reduced to a low
level.
After air bag deployment, wait at least
10 seconds to allow any undeployed air
bag reserve energy to dissipate.
To ensure personal safety, it is essential
to disable the 12 volt power if one or
more air bags remains undeployed.
