I-airbag yemoto sisixhobo esibalulekileyo sokukhusela imoto ngaphandle kokhuseleko, kwaye i-airbag yomqhubi oncedisayo iye yaba ngumgangatho wemoto. Xa i-airbag yomqhubi oncedisayo isebenza, i-airbag iyafuthwa nge-gas inflator, kwaye i-airbag ifakwa emva kokunyuka kwamandla ukuze kufezekiswe injongo yokukhusela umntu ohlala kuyo. Indawo entsha yanamhlanje yomqhubi oncedisayo wesithuthi samandla iya kuyila umboniso omkhulu odlula kuyo yonke indawo yomqhubi oncedisayo kwaye uphezulu kunomphezulu wepaneli yesixhobo, nto leyo echaphazela ukwanda kwe-airbag.
Indlela yokuma kunye nendlela yokusonga yengxowa yomoya inefuthe elikhulu kwisiphumo sokwandiswa, kwaye ingxowa yomoya kufuneka ibe kufutshane nephaneli yezixhobo kunye nesikrini sokubonisa ukuze kufezekiswe isiphumo esingcono sokukhusela. Kwangaxeshanye, indlela yokusonga yengxowa yomoya nayo ibaluleke kakhulu. Okwangoku, ingxowa yomoya encedisayo ineendlela ezimbini zokusonga: enye kukusonga ngomatshini, okukukucinezela ingxowa yomoya kwiqokobhe ngolawulo lwengalo yomatshini; Enye kukusonga ngesandla, okusongwa ngesandla ngesixhobo sokwahlula.
Uhlobo lokugoba kwe-extrusion ngoomatshini aluguquki, kunzima ukuba notshintsho olukhulu, kwaye ingxowa yomoya iphuhliswa ngokukhawuleza kwaye amandla okuchaphazela makhulu, angenakuhlangabezana nazo zonke iimfuno zovavanyo. Ukugoba izixhobo ngesandla kunokulungisa isantya sokwandiswa kwengxowa yomoya kwaye impembelelo incinci, uphawu olukhulu kukuba isimo sengqondo sengxowa yomoya sinokulungiswa ukuze kuhlangatyezwane neemfuno zokungqubana kweemodeli ezahlukeneyo.
