COLUMN SWITCH

GENERAL INFORMATION

M1543101800028

The column switch has a built in feature to ensure 
the driver's safety during frontal collision of vehicle.

.

Function

If the column switch is moved toward the front of the 
vehicle and hit on the instrument panel or meter 
bezel during a frontal collision, the steering wheel is 
moved to the front of the vehicle because the right 
and left levers fall down, ensuring the driver's safety. 
In addition, the column switch secures the rigidity 
that the levers do not fall down by the normal opera-
tion. The column switch cannot be reused after the 
deformation.
