To understand the main pilot airbag, you also need to know the trigger point of the airbag. When a collision occurs in the front of the vehicle, the trigger point is near the front intake grille, and the corresponding position in the car is the steering wheel.

Listen : Listen carefully for a slight "hissing" deflating sound around the airbag.
touch check : gently touch the surface and interface of the air bag to feel whether air is blown out .
immersion check : part of the air bag is immersed in water to observe whether there are bubbles emerging. If there are bubbles, it indicates air leakage .

Check the duck bill valve and inlet valve : squeeze the ball, the ball is easy to be pressed down, the duck bill valve is open; After releasing the hand, the ball automatically springs back to the original state soon, indicating that the duckbill valve and intake valve function well .
Check the oxygen storage bag : connect the oxygen storage bag, squeeze the ball to expand the oxygen storage bag, squeeze the oxygen storage bag, the gas self-exhalation valve overflow, indicating that the exhalation valve function is good .
Check the oxygen storage valve : link the oxygen, make the oxygen storage bag expand, shut off the oxygen, block the oxygen inlet pipe, squeeze the ball, the air inlet valve flashes, indicating that the air inlet valve functions well .
