Seat Belts

Seat Belt Overview

Studies have shown that proper use
of seat belts can significantly reduce
casualties in emergency braking, sudden
steering or collisions. Please read the
following information carefully and
observe it strictly.

WARNING

●BYD has highly emphasized that
all occupants should always
fasten their seat belts while in the
vehicle. Failure to do so increases
the risk of injury in case of an
accident.

●Before driving, make sure all
occupants are properly buckled
up to prevent serious injury or
death in emergency braking or in
a collision.

●It is recommended that children
be seated in rear seats and always
use seat belts and suitable child
restraints.

●Do not allow children to travel
standing or kneeling on either the
front or rear seats. In case of
emergency braking or a collision,
unprotected children may be
seriously injured and their lives
may be endangered. Likewise,
do not allow children to ride
on someone's lap. This will
render the children inadequately
protected.

●When driving, make sure all
occupants have their seat belts
properly fastened to prevent
serious injury or death in

WARNING

emergency braking or in a
collision.

CAUTION

●The seat belts are designed
primarily for adults and are not
intended for children. Make sure
to choose an appropriate child
restraint system according to the
child's age and size.

●If a seat belt is damaged
or malfunctions, immediately
contact a BYD authorized
dealer or service provider
for confirmation and handling.
Until then, do not use the
corresponding seat.

Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)
Function

●When the driver turns sharply or
brakes suddenly, when there is a
collision, or when the occupant
leans forward too quickly, the seat
belt automatically locks to effectively
restrain and protect the occupant.

●When the vehicle travels smoothly,
seat belts are pulled out and retracted
as the occupants move slowly and
smoothly, allowing the occupants to
move freely.

●If the seat belt locks due to sudden
retraction, pull on the seat belt
webbing to create retractable slack in
order to pull out the seat belt.

Pretensioner and Force Limiter
Function*

When a severe front collision occurs
and the triggering conditions of the
pretensioner are met, the pretensioner

Page 12

quickly retracts part of the seat belt and
locks it to improve the protection of the
occupant. The force limiter limits the
seat-belt restraint force to the occupant's
body to a certain extent so as to avoid
injury to the occupant due to an excessive
restraint force.

REMINDER

●In the event of abnormality
or function failure, contact
a BYD authorized dealer or
service provider. Do not use
the corresponding seat until the
functions return to normal.

Using Seat Belts

1.
1. Adjust the seat position and seatback
angle (see P50).

2. Pull out the shoulder belt diagonally
across the entire shoulder without
contacting the neck or falling from the
shoulder. Position the lap belt as low
as possible around the hip.

3. Insert the latch into the buckle until it
clicks, and then pull it back to make
sure it is firmly locked. Do not fasten
the belt with any part of the strap
twisted.

01

SAFETY

4. Adjust the height of the (front)
seat belts for optimum comfort and
protection. When the seat belt is
fastened across the middle of the
shoulder, it provides the best level of
protection. Do not allow it to touch the
neck or slip off the shoulder.

5. Pull the belt firmly to check that the
adjuster is locked.

WARNING

●The shoulder belt should cross
the center of the shoulder. The
seat belt should be far from the
neck and not liable to slip from
the shoulder; otherwise, it cannot
function well in the event of
emergency braking or accident
and may even cause severe injury.

●The lap belt should be positioned
as low as possible across the hip
to prevent any injury caused by
pressing against the abdomen in
case of an accident.

Page 13

WARNING

●The seat belt should be fitted tight
to the body for better protection.

●For normal functioning of the rear
seat belt, ensure that its latch is
inserted into the corresponding
buckle during use. The driver
should remind occupants to wear
seat belts properly.

6. Unlock the seat belt.

●Press the red unlock button on the
buckle. The latch plate pops out, and
the seat belt automatically retracts.
If the seat belt does not retract
automatically, pull it out and check
whether it is twisted.

CAUTION

●One seat belt is for one occupant
only. Do not allow multiple
occupants (including children) to
share one seat belt.

●Avoid traveling with the seatback
leaning too far back. The seat belt
protection performs best when
the seatback is upright.

●Make sure that no seat belt or
its spring bolt/buckle becomes
pressed by the door; otherwise,
the seat belt may be damaged.

●Check the seat belts regularly
for cuts, wear, looseness, and

CAUTION

other abnormalities. If any
problem is found, contact a
BYD authorized dealer or service
provider for confirmation and
handling. Until then, do not use
the corresponding seat.

●Do not remove, disassemble or
modify the seat belts without
permission.

●Use an approved model whenever
you replace the seat belt.

●After an accident, have the seat
belts checked at a BYD authorized
dealer or service provider. If the
pretensioner function is activated,
the seat belt must be replaced.

●In the event of a serious
accident, even if there is no
apparent damage, the seat belt
should be replaced along with
the seat assembly. The airbag
system should also be thoroughly
inspected.

●Pregnant women should also
fasten their seat belt properly.
Particularly, be sure to position
the lap belt as low across the
hip as possible to prevent serious
injury.

●Do not insert foreign objects such
as coins and clips into the buckle
as they prevent proper connection
between the latch and buckle.

Seat Belt Reminders

If the driver or front passenger has not
buckled up after the vehicle is started,
visual and audible alarms go on and
continue until the corresponding seat belt
is properly fastened.

●Seat belt reminder indicator

Page 14

Any unfastened seat belt will trigger
this indicator to light up and flash as
required.

●Display of unfastened belt's seat

The indicator for the seat with
unfastened seat belt lights up.

●Unfastened seat belt reminder

If any vehicle occupant has not
buckled up after the ignition is
switched on, the seat belt reminder
indicator and the indicator associated
with the corresponding seat light up. If
the seat belt remains unfastened while
driving, in addition to the reminder
indicator, an audible alarm is given to
alert the driver and the occupant.

●When the driver and all the passengers
fasten their seat belts, the seat
belt reminder indicator turns off
and all indicators displayed for the
corresponding seats turn off.

CAUTION

●In the event of abnormality
or function failure, contact
a BYD authorized dealer or
service provider. Do not use
the corresponding seat until the
functions return to normal.

Airbags

Airbag Overview

●Supplemental restraint system (SRS) is
a part of auxiliary restraint system and
also a supplement to seats and seat
belts. When the vehicle is involved in a
serious collision and the airbag system
meets its deployment conditions,
relevant airbags will rapidly deploy
and, along with seat belts, provide
additional protection for heads and

chests of the driver and occupants, to
reduce likelihood of personal injury or
even death.

●Airbags are divided into front and
side types*, according to the type of
collision. The front airbags include a
driver airbag and a front passenger
airbag, while the side airbags include
front seat side airbags* and side
curtain airbags*.

01

SAFETY

●As an integral part of the vehicle's
passive safety protection system,
the airbag system does not replace
seat belts, and must be used in
combination with seat belts to
maximize protection. To ensure the
safety of you and your family, please
pay special attention to the warnings
and precautions in this section.

WARNING

●Never seat a child in the front
passenger seat.

●Always have the seat belts
fastened while the vehicle is in
motion.

●Occupants must sit in a
proper position to maximize the
protection provided by seat belts
and the airbag system.

●Do not disassemble or assemble
airbag components without
authorization.

●Use seat covers designed by BYD.
Non-BYD genuine covers may
worsen the airbag performance or
result in injury.

●Do not place anything between
the side airbag and the occupant.

●Do not apply excessive force to the
side of seats equipped with side
airbags.

 Airbag fault warning light

Page 15

●With the ignition switched on, this
warning light turns on and then
goes off in a few seconds if the
airbag system is working properly. This
warning light is used to monitor the
airbag ECU, collision sensors, inflation
device, warning lights, connections,
and power supply.

●If any of the following cases occurs, it
means there is a fault in components
monitored by the warning light system.
In that case, contact a BYD authorized
dealer or service provider for vehicle
inspection as soon as possible.

●When the ignition is switched on, this
warning light remains off or is solid
on after the ignition is switched on.

●This warning light turns on or flashes
during driving.

WARNING

●If the vehicle is ingressed with
water (wet carpet or vehicle
submerged in water) or damaged
by water, do not start the vehicle
and the low-voltage battery needs
to be disconnected. Otherwise,
the airbags may deploy, resulting
in serious injury or death.

Driver and Front
Passenger Airbags

If your vehicle is equipped with driver
and front passenger airbags, when the
electronic control unit (ECU) of the airbag
system detects a moderate to severe
front impact during driving and the
triggering conditions are met, the airbags
deploy to help protect you and the front
passenger's head and chest from injury.

Front airbag deployment

●In moderate to severe frontal crashes,
a sensor detects a sharp deceleration
and sends a signal to the ECU to trigger
the front airbags.

●When there is a frontal crash, the seat
belt secures the occupant's lower body
and torso in place. The airbag cushions
and protects the occupant's head and
chest.

●When the severity of the impact
does not reach the airbag deployment
threshold, seat belts provide enough
protection.

●The front airbag deflates immediately
after inflation, without affecting the
driver's vision and ability to operate
the steering wheel or other controls.

●Airbags can inflate rapidly when
triggering conditions are satisfied to
further protect drivers and occupants
in an accident.

●A loud noise will be heard when the
airbag deploys. It will not cause injury,
but it may cause tinnitus or temporary
deafness.

●A cloud of dust from the airbag surface
may come off when the airbag deploys.
Although such powder is non-toxic,
individuals with respiratory problem
might experience some temporary
discomfort.

Page 16

WARNING

●No accessories, such as telephone
holders, cups, ashtrays, may
be installed on airbag covers
or within their action range.
Otherwise, airbag deployment will
increase the risk of injury in an
accident.

Front Passenger Side
Airbags

The vehicle is equipped with side airbags
for the left and right front seats. If the
triggering conditions are met, the airbags
will deploy in an accident to help protect
the body of the driver and passengers
(side airbags are installed in the outer
edges of the front-row seatbacks and
marked with "AIRBAG").

Side Curtain Airbags

●The vehicle is equipped with left and
right-side curtain airbags (with the
A-pillar, B-pillar, and C-pillar shields
marked with "AIRBAG", as shown in the
illustration).

●When a moderate to severe side
impact is detected by the ECU during
vehicle travel, and the triggering
conditions are met, the side airbag
deploys to protect the head of the
occupant on the side of collision.

01

SAFETY

●Generally, only the airbag on the
impacted side deploys in the event of
a side impact.

●For optimum curtain airbag protection,
the occupant must have their seat belt
fastened and sit in an upright position.

Airbag Triggering
Conditions and
Precautions

●Airbag triggering conditions: In the
event of a vehicle collision, whether an
airbag will be triggered is decided by
factors such as the amount of collision
energy, accident type, collision angle,
obstacles and vehicle speed. The
airbag system may be triggered in
special collisions.

●Generally, the airbag system will
not be triggered in the event of a
minor frontal collision, rear collision
or rollover. In this case, the driver
and passengers are protected by their
properly fastened seat belts.

●The ECU of the BYD airbag system
has been set up with considerations of
common misuse and road conditions.
However, due to the increasing
changes in causes and forms of vehicle
collisions, for your safety, please
strictly follow this user manual, use the
vehicle correctly, and avoid its misuse.
Otherwise, there is no guarantee that

Page 17

the airbags will achieve their expected
effect.

Cases When Airbags May Be Deployed

The vehicle's nose hits the ground when
crossing a deep groove.

The vehicle hits a bump or curbstone.

The vehicle's nose hits the ground when
going down a steep slope.

One side of the vehicle is hit by another
vehicle.

Cases When Airbags May Not Be
Deployed

The vehicle hits a concrete column, tree,
or other slim objects.

The vehicle goes under a truck or another
large vehicle.

The tail of the vehicle is hit by another
vehicle.

Page 18

The vehicle rolls over.

The vehicle hits a wall or a vehicle at a
side other than the front side.

Parts other than the passenger
compartment receive side impact.

The lateral side of the vehicle is hit
diagonally.

01

SAFETY

The lateral side of the vehicle hits a
columnar object.

It is recommended that you contact
a BYD authorized dealer or service
provider immediately if any of the
following situations occurs.

●The airbag has deployed.

●Instrument cluster airbags warning
light 

 lights up abnormally.

●There is a collision with the front of the
vehicle (highlighted area shown), but
the airbags do not deploy.

Page 19

●The airbag cover has been scratched,
cracked or otherwise damaged.

●Airbags need to be removed,
disassembled, installed or repaired.

●Side airbags and curtain airbags (if
equipped) have deployed.

●There is a collision with the vehicle
door (highlighted area shown), but
the airbags do not deploy.

●The surface of the seat with a
side airbag (highlighted area shown)
is scratched, cracked or damaged
similarly.

●Decorative (liner) parts at A-pillar with
built-in curtain airbags, roof beam
and C-pillar are scratched, cracked or
damaged similarly.

WARNING

●Airbags are designed for
specific models. Any changes to
suspension, tire size, bumpers,
chassis and factory-equipped

WARNING

devices may adversely affect the
airbag system. Users must not use
any parts of the airbag system
on other car models; doing so
may lead to failure of the airbag
system.

●Fasten your seat belt and sit
properly while the vehicle is
in motion. If the seat belt is
not fastened, if the occupant
is leaning forward or sitting
improperly, airbag deployment
can increase the severity of injury.

●Do not paste stickers, cover or
decorate the hub cover of the
steering wheel, the right side
surface of the dashboard or the
surface of A, B, and C-pillar trims.
Clean these surfaces with a dry or
damp cloth, without applying too
much pressure.

●A child is not to be seated in
the front passenger seat, nor
are they to ride sitting on a
front passenger's lap, to prevent
serious injury or even casualty
caused by airbag deployment.

●Do not modify or replace seats
or trims of the seats with
side airbags. These changes
may prevent normal deployment
of side airbags, and thereby
cause airbag system failure or
unintended deployment of side
airbags, resulting in serious injury
or death.

●After a collision, even if the
airbag did not deploy, and the
pretensioner did not lock the
seat belt, to ensure the normal
operation of the airbag system,
contact a BYD authorized dealer
or service provider for inspection
as soon as possible.

Page 20

WARNING

●Drivers should maintain a distance
of at least 25 cm between their
chest and the steering wheel,
in order for the system to
provide the most effective driver
protection.

●Airbags can only provide one-time
accident protection. Once the
airbag is triggered or damaged,
the airbag system must be
replaced.

●The airbag system of this vehicle
is designed with full consideration
of domestic common misuses
and road conditions. However, in
order to avoid accidents, do not
have the bottom of the vehicle
impacted or drive roughly in harsh
road conditions.

●When transferring car ownership,
make sure to pass on all
of the vehicle's documents
and keep the new ownership
informed of airbag conditions and
replacement dates.

CAUTION

●Do not change any component
of the airbag system, including
any corresponding label. It is
recommended that any operation
done to the airbags be performed
by a BYD authorized dealer or
service provider.

●The airbag system has
strong anti-interference and
anti-disturbance resistance to
surrounding electromagnetic
interference and disturbance.
However, to avoid accidents,
do not use the vehicle in an
electromagnetic environment that
violates national regulations.

CAUTION

●This vehicle's airbag system has
been fully verified to seamlessly
match the vehicle's original
wiring harness system. Any wiring
harness modification or alteration
may cause the airbags to
deploy mistakenly under normal
conditions or fail to deploy in the
event of a collision.

01

SAFETY

REMINDER

●Follow safety regulations and
procedures related to the
scrapping of parts of the vehicle
or its airbag system.

Child Restraint
Systems

Child Restraint System
Classification

●Choose a suitable child restraint
system for your children according to
their ages and statures. A child who
cannot use a protection device for size
reason must sit in the rear seat and
have the seat belt fastened properly.

●Please correctly fix the child restraint
system not used to a seat. Do not place
it on a passenger seat or in the trunk
arbitrarily.

WARNING

●Be sure to use a seat belt or child
restraint system for a child based
on his/her age and size, so as to
effectively protect the child in an
accident or emergency stop.

Page 21

WARNING

●Holding a child in arms is not
a substitute for a child restraint
system. In an accident, the child
may be crushed against the
windshield or between you and
the cabin, resulting in serious or
even fatal injury to the child.

●If side airbags are equipped, even
though a child is in the child
restraint system, do not allow
his/her head or any other body
part against any door, seat, front/
rear pillar or roof side beam
(which will be affected when
side airbags deploy). Otherwise,
the considerable impact force
generated when the curtain
airbags deploy will cause serious
or even fatal injury to the child.

REMINDER

●BYD strongly suggests you to
install child restraint systems.
Researches indicate that it is safer

Anti-theft System

Anti-theft System

When armed, the system sounds an alarm
and triggers turn signal to flash when any
door is opened to prevent the vehicle
from being stolen.

Page 26

Arming the system

1. Switch the ignition off.

2. All occupants get off the vehicle.

3. Lock all doors. This makes the
anti-theft indicator steady on. The
anti-theft alarm system will arm
automatically after eight seconds, and
the anti-theft indicator will then begin
to flash.

4. You can leave the vehicle after
confirming that the indicator begins to
flash. Since unlocking the door from
inside the vehicle will activate the
system, never let anyone stay in the
vehicle with the system enabled.

Activating the system

●The system will raise an alarm in any of
the following situations:

●Any door or hood is unlocked or open
if without using the smart key access
function.

●The vehicle is powered on without
using the smart key start function.

Cancelling the system

●Anti-theft alarm can be stopped by:

●Unlocking the doors or the trunk with
a smart key.

●Use of the microswitch to unlock the
vehicle.

●Starting the vehicle remotely with a
smart key.

●Pressing the START/STOP button
inside the vehicle while carrying a
smart key.

WARNING

●Do not modify the anti-theft alarm
system by means of alteration or

WARNING

addition, otherwise the system
may fail.

Anti-theft Indicator

01

●When the alarm is armed, the anti-
theft indicator is solid on for eight
seconds.

SAFETY

●When the alarm is armed, the anti-
theft indicator flashes slowly.

●When the vehicle is powered on, the
anti-theft indicator turns off.

Event Data
Recorder System

●This vehicle is equipped with an
event data recorder (EDR) system.
EDR mainly records data in the
event of a crash or near-crash
(for example, airbag deployment or
hitting on a roadside obstacle) to
help comprehend the vehicle system
operation, such as:

●Vehicle velocity

●Tire pressure condition

●Adaptive cruise control (ACC) system*
status

●Whether the seat belt is fastened

Page 27

●The vehicle records EDR data only
when there is a crash or when a
near-crash event reaches a certain
extent. The EDR does not record any
data during the normal driving of the
vehicle.

●The data recorded by the EDR system
provides an understanding of the
state of the vehicle's safety-related
systems when an accident occurs, so
that relevant parties can analyze the
accident.

●The EDR data needs to be accessed
and read by special equipment. BYD
discloses your personal data to third
parties only if this is legally permissible
or you have consented to it. In
addition to the vehicle manufacturer,
third-party agencies with professional
equipment (such as government
agencies) can also read the EDR data
if they have access to the vehicle EDR
and equipment (for example, they can
read the data of SRS control unit to
clarify the accident).

Warning Lights/Indicators Description

Smart key warning light

●If the key is not in the vehicle when
the START/STOP button is pressed, the
warning light will light up for a few
seconds, a beep will be heard, and a
"Key not detected" message will be
displayed.

●If you carry the electronic smart key
and press the START/STOP button, this
warning light will not light up and the
vehicle can be powered on.

●This warning light will disappear and
the vehicle can be powered on if the
key is taken into the vehicle within a
few seconds after the light turns on.

●If the warning light flashes when
the START/STOP button is pressed, it
indicates low battery of the key.

ABS fault warning light

●This warning light comes on when the
ignition is on. If the anti-lock braking

Steering system fault warning
light

Low-voltage power system fault
warning light

High-voltage battery
overheating warning light

High-voltage battery charging
connection indicator

High-voltage battery fault
warning light

system (ABS) is working properly, the
light goes out in a few seconds.
Thereafter, if the system fails, the
light lights up again until the fault is
cleared.

●When the ABS fault warning light is on
(with the parking system fault warning
light off), the braking system continues
to operate whereas the ABS does not.

●When the ABS fault warning light is on
(with the parking system fault warning
light off), since the anti-lock braking
system does not operate, the wheels
will be locked in case of emergency
braking or braking on a slippery road.

●If any of the following cases occurs, it
means there is a fault in components
monitored by the warning light system.
In that case, contact a BYD authorized
dealer or service provider for vehicle
inspection as soon as possible.

●This warning light does not come on
or is steady on when the ignition is
on.

●This warning light turns on during
driving.

Page 32

REMINDER

●A warning light that lights up
briefly during operation does not
indicate a problem.

●If the ABS fault warning light is
still on while the braking system
warning light is on, immediately
park the vehicle in a safe place.
It is recommended to contact a
BYD authorized dealer or service
provider. In this case, if brakes are
applied, the ABS will not work and
the vehicle will become extremely
unstable.

●If both the ABS fault warning light and
EPB indicator go on after the EPB is
released, the braking force distribution
system of front and rear wheels has
also failed.

●Lightly depress the brake pedal to see
whether it is normal. If it is normal,
check the brake fluid level. If the
liquid level is low, it is recommended
to contact a BYD authorized dealer
or service provider to check whether
there is leakage in the brake system
and the wear degree of the brake pads.

●If the brake pedal feels abnormal,
take measures immediately. It is
recommended to bring the vehicle to
a BYD authorized dealer or service
provider for repair.

Tire pressure fault warning
light

If any of the following cases occurs,
it is recommended to contact a BYD
authorized dealer or service provider for
inspection as soon as possible.

●With the ignition switched on, this
warning light turns on and then goes
off in a few seconds if the tire pressure
monitoring system is working properly.

If the system fails, this warning light
turns on again.

●When the tire pressure fault warning
light comes on or flashes, and the
message "Please check TPMS" is
displayed on the instrument cluster, it
indicates that the tire pressure system
is faulty.

●When the tire pressure fault warning
light is solid on and one or more
values indicate low tire pressure on the
tire pressure screen on the instrument
cluster, the corresponding tire is in
under-pressure condition.

02

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER

ESC fault warning light

●This warning light comes on when the
ignition is on. If electronic stability
control (ESC) functions properly, the
light goes out in a few seconds. If the
system fails, this warning light turns on
again until the system fault is cleared.

●If the ESC warning light flashes
temporarily while the vehicle is in
motion, it indicates the ESC system is
working.

●When the ESC warning light turns on
(with the ABS fault warning light and
the parking system fault warning light
off), the ESC fails, but the ABS and
the braking system continue to operate
normally.

●When the ESC warning light turns on
(with the ABS fault warning light and
the parking system fault warning light
off), the ESC system does not work.
This means the vehicle is extremely
unstable at sharp turns or when the
driver steers away from obstacles
ahead.

●If any of the following cases occurs, it
means there is a fault in components
monitored by the warning light system.
In that case, contact a BYD authorized

Page 33

dealer or service provider for vehicle
inspection as soon as possible.

●When the ignition is switched on, this
warning light remains off or is solid

●This warning light is steady on while
driving.

REMINDER

●A flashing warning light during
driving indicates that the ESC
system is working.

●A warning light that lights up
briefly during operation does not
indicate a problem.

●If the ABS fault warning light,
parking system fault warning light
and ESC fault warning light are
on at the same time, immediately
park the vehicle in a safe place.
It is recommended to contact a
BYD authorized dealer or service
provider. This is because braking
at this time can render the vehicle
extremely unstable, and the anti-
lock braking system does not
work at all.

ESC OFF warning light

●With the ignition on, this warning light
turns on for a few seconds and then
disappears.

●When the ESC OFF switch is pressed,
this warning light should remain
steady on and the ESC system will
not operate. When the ESC OFF switch
is pressed again, this warning light
should turn off and the ESC system
resumes normal operation.

REMINDER

●While the ESC OFF warning light
is on, the driver must stay alert
and keep driving at a lower
speed when making a sharp turn
and when avoiding an obstacle
which appears suddenly, because
ESC system is malfunctioned at
this time and braking will cause
instability.

Headlight fault warning light

●A yellow warning light means one
failed headlight, while a red warning
light means both have failed.

●When this indicator is on, it is
recommended to bring the vehicle to
a BYD authorized dealer or service
provider for inspection.

the vehicle in a thunderstorm, under
risk of lightning strikes.

●Do not open the hood for maintenance
while charging.

●After charging, do not disconnect the
charging equipment with wet hands or
while standing on any wet surface.

●Before driving, ensure that the
charging equipment is disconnected
from the charge port.

Charging Precautions

●When the SOC bar on the instrument
cluster turns red, the high-voltage
battery is about to be exhausted.
Please charge it immediately,
otherwise the service life of the high-
voltage battery will be reduced.

●Avoiding damage to the charging
equipment (precautions for charging
equipment):

●Prevent the charging equipment
from any mechanical impact.

Page 70

●Do not place the charging equipment
near heaters or other heat sources.

●Never drop the equipment or move
it by pulling it directly by the
cable. Take caution when moving the
equipment.

●Before charging:

●Make sure that the charging
connector and charge port are
free of foreign objects, and that
the protective cap of the charging
connector terminal does not get
loose or deformed.

●Hold the charging connector, align
the connector with the charge port
and push it in, making sure that they
are properly connected.

●When charging is complete:

●Stop charging first and make sure the
charge port is unlocked.

●Hold the charging connector with
one hand and remove the connector
by pressing and holding its button.

●Do not force the charging connector
out while the charge port is locked,
otherwise the charge port may be
damaged.

●Switch the ignition off before charging.

ensure the charging power, this is not
recommended.

●It is recommended to park the vehicle
in a ventilated area during charging. It
is recommended that no one stay in
the vehicle.

●During charging, the estimated
remaining time to full charge is
displayed on the instrument cluster.
It is normal that this charging time
may vary slightly across temperatures,
SOC, and charging facilities. Before

charging is completed, "Calculating..."
is displayed on the instrument cluster.

04

●Before starting the vehicle, be sure
to unplug the charging equipment.
The vehicle is ready to drive even if
the charging connector is left plugged
but not fully locked, which may
damage the charging equipment and
the vehicle.

USING AND DRIVING

●If the vehicle is to be parked for a
lengthy period of time, charge it every
three months and, to prolong the
service life of the high-voltage battery,
charge fully before starting it again
(see battery usage tips for details).

●If the charge port door is frozen due
to weather or other reasons, it is
suggested to warm it with hot water
and then open the port, do not force it
open.

●Battery temperatures that are too
low or too high compromise vehicle
charging performance.

●For faster low-temperature DC
charging, charging from low SOC
is recommended because, due to
the low battery temperature, the
charging current is small for vehicles
with high SOC in low-temperature
environments.

●To improve your experience, it is
recommended to charge the vehicle
immediately after using it, as the

Page 71

battery is relatively hot and has
better charging performance.

●In low-temperature regions, it is
better to charge the vehicle in
a heated indoor space. In high-
temperature regions, charging in
a cool and ventilated place is
recommended.

●Turning A/C on during low-
temperature charging compromises
charging performance.

●When the cooling function is enabled
during charging, it is normal that both
charging time and power consumption
increase slightly.

●During charging, battery cooling
may start, and the compressor, fan
and other components work when
necessary. It is normal that there will
be some noise under the hood.

●During charging, when the battery
cooling is activated, it is normal
that the charging power displayed by
the instrument cluster decreases or
fluctuates for a short time.

●Before charging is complete, battery
equalization is activated for longer
battery life and thus the charging time
may be longer.

●In case of high-temperature high-
power DC charging, the performance
of battery temperature control system
may be affected by the A/C in
the passenger compartment, and the
charging performance may degrade,
resulting in an extended charging time.
To ensure charging efficiency, it is
recommended to keep the A/C off
during charging.

●If the charging connector is frozen due
to cold weather, it is recommended
to use proper tools to separate the
connector from the charging port.

REMINDER

●Do not open the charge port door
forcibly when it is locked.

●Do not forcibly insert the
connector with the electric lock
engaged.

●Do not close the charge port door
when the port cap is fully open.

●When the vehicle is charged
with an external power supply,
it is normal that the cooling fan
and A/C compressor may operate
automatically for the high-voltage
battery to cool down.

Charging Method

The pure electric vehicle is driven by
electric energy supplied from the high-
voltage battery. To prevent insufficient
power of the high-voltage battery
affecting the vehicle driving experience,
it is very important to charge the vehicle
in time and estimate the power demand
before driving.

Charging method:

1. Using Mode 2 Charging Cable*

2. Using AC Charging Piles*

3. Using DC Chargers

low, the low-voltage battery can be
charged with the high-voltage battery.

REMINDER

●When the vehicle is stored for a
long time, the intelligent charging
function may be activated, which
is normal and not a vehicle failure.

●Power for intelligent charging
comes from the high-voltage
battery pack, so it is normal that
an SOC decrease is noticed when
the vehicle is powered on.

●To avoid high-voltage battery
over-discharging due to intelligent
charging, when the vehicle is at
low SOC, intelligent charging is
not available. Avoid parking at low
SOC for a long time, and charge
the vehicle in time.

Page 82

Battery

High-Voltage Battery

●The vehicle is powered by a high-
voltage battery that can be charged
and discharged repeatedly. The high-
voltage battery is charged by an
external power source or through
energy recovery when the vehicle
brakes or coasts.

●The high-voltage battery is located
under the vehicle floor, so be careful
and slow down to avoid bumping
when driving on bumpy or uneven
roads. If bumping occurs, go to a BYD
authorized dealer or service provider
for maintenance.

Battery Properties

●It is normal that vehicle performance
is affected by battery electrochemical
properties and self-protection and
varies to some extent in the following
conditions:

●When SOC is high, the regenerative
braking performance may decline.

●The vehicle switches to trickle
charging mode at high SOC. If the
charging time is prolonged, the
estimated remaining charging time
displayed on the instrument cluster
may not be accurate.

●When SOC is low, the acceleration
performance may decline.

●At high or low temperatures, it
is normal that the charging and
discharging capabilities of the high-
voltage battery decline, and the
charging time is prolonged. For
fast charging, high-power charging
equipment is recommended. Power
performance may also decline under
extreme temperatures.

●Usable capacity of the high-voltage
battery is lower in cold weather
and reduces as the temperature
decreases. If the vehicle with high
battery level is charged at low
temperatures, the SOC may quickly
jump to 100%.

04

USING AND DRIVING

●When the high-voltage battery is
normal, the driving range of the vehicle
varies with the following factors:

●Driving habit: For example, the
range in frequent acceleration or
deceleration is shorter than that at
constant speeds, and the range is
shorter when driving at high speeds
than when at low speeds.

●Road conditions: For example, the
range driven in rough conditions or
on long slopes is shorter than that
in normal conditions and on even
roads.

●Temperature: The driving range at
low temperatures is shorter than that
at ambient temperatures.

●Use of electric equipment: For
example, the range driven with A/C
on is shorter than that with A/C off.

●The available battery capacity
decreases as the vehicle is used over
time.

Page 83

Battery Usage Tips

●It is recommended to use the vehicle at
temperatures between -10℃ to 40℃.
When SOC is low, timely charge the
vehicle to ensure enough driving range
and good acceleration performance.

●To ensure long term performance,
avoid driving in extreme temperatures
for over 24 hours.

●In low ambient temperatures, if the
vehicle must be stored for a long time,
it can be placed in an underground
garage or other warmer area to reduce
loss of battery heat, maintaining
vehicle performance.

●Frequent and sudden acceleration or
deceleration should be avoided. Drive
the vehicle on flat and dry roads.
When necessary, turn off high-power
equipment such as A/C or adjust
the A/C temperature to reduce power
consumption of such devices and
increase the driving range.

●When the vehicle is used for the
first time or after a long idle period,
the SOC displayed on the instrument
cluster may not be correct. It is
recommended to fully charge the
vehicle first.

●For optimal battery performance,
use a charging connector to fully
charge the battery regularly, and the
recommended frequency is once a
week at least.

●Under extreme working conditions
(such as frequent sudden acceleration/
deceleration) that cause battery
overheating, if the temperature of
high-voltage battery is excessively
high, it is normal for discharging
capability to decrease gradually. If
the battery temperature keeps rising,
the fault warning light lights up on
the instrument cluster. In that case,

it is recommended to contact a BYD
authorized dealer or service provider.

●When the battery SOC increases
or decreases abnormally, it is
recommended to contact a BYD
authorized dealer or service provider
for inspection.

WARNING

In the event of an emergency or
accident, be aware of the following
warnings:

●To avoid personal injury, do not
touch the high-voltage battery
directly.

●It is recommended to contact a
BYD authorized dealer or service
provider as soon as possible.

●If the high-voltage battery is
damaged and leaking fluid, avoid
any contact with the fluid.
If it comes into contact with
skin or eyes, rinse immediately
with plenty of water, and seek
immediate medical attention.

●If the vehicle catches fire,
use dedicated fire extinguishers
instead of water-based fire
extinguishers.

WARNING

●To ensure safety of the high-
voltage battery, stop the vehicle
away from flammable and
explosive materials, ignition
sources and various hazardous
chemicals.

●Prolonged exposure to heat
sources and direct sunlight reduce
the service life of the high-voltage
battery.

Page 84

WARNING

●When the vehicle is not to
be operated for an extended
period (over seven days), it is
recommended that the battery
SOC should be kept at 40%-60%
to prolong its service life. When
the vehicle is not to be operated
for over three months, the high-
voltage battery must be fully
charged and then discharged to
40%-60% every three months.
Otherwise, over-discharge may
lead to battery performance
degradation or even damage. Any
vehicle fault or damage so caused
are not warranted.

●If there is a collision with
the high-voltage battery, contact
a BYD authorized dealer or
service provider immediately for
maintenance.

Recycling the High-Voltage Battery

How to scrap an NEV:

1. Take the vehicle to the BYD recycling
service provider that will assess the
residual value of the high-voltage
battery.

2. Take the assessed vehicle to the
recycling organization to disassemble
the high-voltage battery.

3. Take the battery to the recycling
service provider which will buy back
the battery.

WARNING

●New energy car owners have
the responsibility and obligation
to hand over waste high-voltage
batteries to the recycling service
outlet. Anyone who hands over a
used high-voltage battery to any

WARNING

other organization or individual,
or removes/disassembles a
high-voltage battery without
authorization, shall be liable for
any environmental pollution or
safety incident so caused.

Low-Voltage Battery

●Open the hood to find the two poles
of the low-voltage battery, the positive
terminal and negative terminal.

04

●To prevent the SOC of the low-
voltage battery becoming too low,
the intelligent charging function
is triggered automatically when
conditions are met (ignition off, high-
voltage battery discharging allowed,
and low-voltage battery level below
the design value).

USING AND DRIVING

●If the "intelligent charging" fails, and
the vehicle is idle for a period of time,
the low-voltage battery may not be
able to power on the vehicle as the
low-voltage power supply. In that case,
contact a BYD designated maintenance
agency promptly.

●Check low-voltage battery conditions
monthly, and check for terminal
corrosion.

●If the terminals are corroded, pour
soda water on them. Bubbles generate
and the soda water gradually turns
brown. When the bubbles dissipate,
rinse the brown water and wipe them
with a dry cloth. Apply some grease to
prevent further corrosion.

●If the connector becomes loose,
tighten the clamp nut, but do not over-
tighten it. Tighten the pressing tool
until it securely fixes the low-voltage
battery in place. Over-tightening

Page 85

will damage the low-voltage battery
compartment.

WARNING

●Since the low-voltage battery
may produce combustible and
explosive hydrogen gas, use tools
in such a manner that the battery
would not produce sparks. Do not
smoke or use open flames near
the battery.

●Avoid electrolyte contact with
eyes, skin or clothing.

●In case of mouth contact with
the electrolyte, seek medical
attention immediately.

●Wear goggles at all times when
working near the low-voltage
battery. If electrolyte gets into the
eyes, rinse with plenty of fresh
water and seek medical assistance
immediately.

●Keep children away from the low-
voltage battery.

●If electrolyte contacts bare skin,
rinse the contact area with baking
soda. Seek medical assistance
immediately if you experience any
painful or burning sensations.

●Electrolyte may seep in,
and contact the skin, if
they come into contact with
clothing. All contaminated
clothes must therefore be
removed immediately. Follow the
instructions above if needed.

●If the low-voltage battery needs to
be connected to other chargers,
the positive and negative cables
should be disconnected to
prevent damage to the vehicle
electrical system.

WARNING

●Charging the low-voltage battery
during cable connection may
seriously damage the electronic
controls. Remove the low-voltage
battery cable before connecting
the low-voltage battery to the
charger.

●If the low-voltage battery is
exhausted, the clock and preset
channel settings in the audio
system will be cancelled. You need
to reset the clock and preset
channels.

CAUTION

●When checking the low-voltage
battery, remove the ground cable
from the negative terminal (-) first,
and reconnect it last.

●Try to avoid shorting electronic
components when using tools.

●When cleaning the low-voltage
battery, make sure to avoid any
fluid getting inside.

REMINDER

●Be sure to replace a low-
voltage battery with insufficient
electrolyte. Do not add electrolyte
by yourself.

●When leaving the vehicle, make
sure the doors are closed and all
electrical equipment is turned off.

●If the vehicle needs to be parked
for a long time, please disconnect
the negative terminal wire.

Page 86

Usage Precautions

Break-in Period

●If the powertrain is hard to start or
frequently stops turning, inspect the
vehicle immediately.

●If the powertrain makes any abnormal
sounds, stop the vehicle for inspection.

●If the powertrain has severe coolant
and oil leakage, stop the vehicle for
inspection.

●The powertrain needs break-in. It is
recommended that this be done within
the first 2,000 km in economic mode
by smoothly driving, instead of high-
speed driving. The following practices
can effectively prolong vehicle service
life:

●Avoid flooring the accelerator pedal
when starting and driving the
vehicle.

●Avoid speeding.

●Avoid emergency braking within the
first 300 km.

●Do not maintain a high or low speed
for too long.

●Do not use the vehicle to tow other
vehicles within the first 2,000 km of
mileage.

Trailer Towing

●This vehicle is designed to carry
passengers. Do not overload it or use
it to tow other vehicles.

●Towing other vehicles has an adverse
impact on the maneuverability,
performance, braking, endurance,
driving economy, power consumption,
and other aspects of performance of
the vehicle itself.

●Driving safety and comfort totally
depend on equipment usage and good
driving habits.

●BYD does not provide free warranty for
the damage or faults resulted from the
trailer towing.

Driving Safety
Precautions

No Drunk Driving

Even a small amount of alcohol can
reduce a driver's ability to respond to
traffic condition changes. The higher the
level of alcohol, the less responsive the
driver will be. Therefore, never drive
while under the influence.

04

USING AND DRIVING

No Speeding

Speeding is a major cause of fatal
accidents. Faster speeds generally entail
higher risk. Therefore, maintain a speed
safe for the road traffic conditions.

Keeping the Vehicle Safe for Driving

Tire bursts and mechanical faults are
extremely dangerous. To reduce the
possibility of such faults, frequently check
the vehicle's condition, and regularly
complete the specified inspections.

CAUTION

●Any driver must possess a driver's
license before driving a vehicle.

●Do not drive when fatigued.

●Always follow the traffic
regulations when driving a
vehicle.

●When driving, drivers must stay
focused and not carry out
any unrelated activity, such as

Page 87

CAUTION

answering calls or adjusting
buttons.

Suggestions for Vehicle
Use

Suggestions for prolong the battery
usage:

●When the vehicle is not to be operated
for over seven days, it is recommended
that the battery SOC should be kept at
40%-60%, or the high-voltage battery
service life may be reduced.

●When the vehicle is not to be operated
for over three months, the high-voltage
battery must be fully charged and then
discharged to 40%-60%. Otherwise,
over-discharge may lead to battery
performance degradation or even
damage. Any vehicle fault or damage
so caused will not be warranted.

●During operation of the vehicle, if
the instrument cluster displays the
pure electric driving mileage as 0, it
indicates the battery SOC is low. In this
case, charge the high-voltage battery
in time and avoid operating the vehicle
with low SOC for a long time.

●For optimal battery performance,
use a charging connector to fully
charge the battery regularly, and the
recommended frequency is once a
week at least.

●To maintain long-term performance,
avoid continuously exposing the
vehicle to an environment with a
temperature above 60°C or below
-30°C for over 24 hours.

●If the tray dented inward or there
is scrarification under the battery
package tray, it is suggested to check

at a BYD authorized dealer or service
provider.

●During operation of the vehicle,
avoid repeated rapid acceleration or
deceleration whenever possible.

●During operation of the vehicle, avoid
operating the vehicle continuously
for a long time whenever possible;
otherwise, the excessively high
battery temperature will affect vehicle
performance.

●If the instrument cluster mulfunctions
when driving, it is recommended to
contact a BYD authorized dealer or
service provider for inspection as soon
as possible.

●When the high-voltage battery
temperature is high, the vehicle
performance will be limited to some
extent. In this case, stop the vehicle
and wait until the temperature drops
before operating.

REMINDER

●If the meter drops to zero, the
battery must be recharged. If it is
not recharged within seven days,
the battery may suffer permanent
damage. Such damage is not
covered by BYD warranty terms.

●Driving range depends on many
factors, such as the vehicle's
available power, vehicle age
(current battery life), weather,
temperature, road conditions and
driving habits. Compared with
under normal temperatures, the
pure-electric driving range is
somewhat reduced and power
performance will also be affected
in low or high temperature
environments.

Page 88

Saving Energy and
Extending Vehicle Service
Life

●Saving energy is simple and easy, and
it helps prolong the vehicle's service
life.

●Here are some tips for saving energy
and repair cost:

1. Regenerative braking setting:

●The vehicle is provided with an
energy regeneration function. To set
the energy regeneration intensity,
operate the regenerative braking
mode button on the auxiliary
dashboard or go to the infotainment
touchscreen. In high energy recovery
mode, more energy is recovered
during vehicle braking and coasting.
Please set to suit to your driving
habits.

2. Maintaining constant speed:

●Constant speeds save energy.
Sudden acceleration, sharp turns
and emergency braking increase
consumption.

●Speeds should be kept constant
according to traffic conditions.
Additional energy is consumed each
time the accelerator is pushed.

●Acceleration should be gradual.
Avoid sudden startup, acceleration,
or deceleration.

●Prevent emergency braking, and
subsequent brake wear, by keeping
an appropriate distance from
vehicles ahead, and paying attention
to traffic lights.

●Congested roads increase energy
consumption.

●Keep moderate speeds in
motorways. The higher the speed,

the higher the consumption.
Maintaining vehicle speed within the
economical speed range can save
power.

3. Reducing load:

●Consumption is higher when air
conditioning is used. Turn off the A/C
to reduce power consumption. When
outside temperatures are moderate,
use fresh air mode.

●Do not overload the vehicle
unnecessarily. Excessive weights will
add the load of vehicle, increasing
energy consumption.

04

4. Other tips:

●Make sure tire pressure is correct.
Low tire pressure increases energy
consumption and wear.

USING AND DRIVING

●Keep front wheels properly aligned,
avoid driving into curbstones, and
drive slowly in rough terrain.
Misalignment of the front wheels not
only increases tire wear, but also
increases load on the powertrain and
power consumption.

●Keep the bottom of the vehicle clean
and mud free. This reduces vehicle
weight and prevents corrosion.

REMINDER

●Do not coast in neutral gear.

Carrying Luggage

●This vehicle has multiple
storage spaces. Overloading or
improper accommodation may affect
maneuverability, stability and normal
operation of the vehicle, and reduce its
safety.

●The glove box, door bins and seatback
pockets are designed for small and

Page 89

light objects, while the trunk for large
and heavy objects.

●When loading luggage, the total mass
of the vehicle body, all passengers and
luggage shall not exceed the maximum
allowable total mass.

WARNING

●Overloading and improper
accommodation may affect
stability and vehicle control,
which may lead to accidents.

●Observe the maximum weight
limit and other loading guidelines
in this manual.

●Do not carry highly magnetic
items, as they might interfere in
the vehicle's operating functions.

Carrying Items in the Passenger Area

●All items that could be thrown inwards
and thus injure occupants in case of a
collision must be properly placed and
secured.

●Do not place any objects on the inner
side of rear windshield. Otherwise,
these objects will block the driver's
line of sight and will be thrown here
and there inside the vehicle in case of
collision.

●Ensure that items placed on the floor
behind the front seat do not roll under
the seat, so as to avoid affecting the
driver's ability to control the pedals or
normal seat adjustment. Do not stack
items to a height taller than the front
seats' seatbacks.

●Make sure the glove box is always
closed while driving. If the glove box
is open, the occupant's knees may be
injured in case of a collision or an
emergency stop.

REMINDER

●Do not pile up toys in the vehicle,
as this may affect driving safety
and present a hazard to the
children, especially in case of
emergency braking or collision.

Loading the Trunk

●Place luggage evenly in the trunk. Put
heavier items at the bottom and as far
as possible.

●Secure items with ropes or straps so
that they will not move while driving.
Do not stack items to a height taller
than seatbacks.

●Electrical devices are under the cover
of the rear trunk, so the luggage placed
on the cover is not allowed to exceed
75kg.

Fire Prevention

To prevent vehicle fires in a timely and
effective manner, pay attention to the
following during use of the vehicle:

●No flammable or explosive items are
allowed in the vehicle.

●Temperatures may reach over 70°C in
a vehicle exposed to direct sunlight
in summer. Therefore, flammable
and explosive items, such as lighters,
cleaning agents and perfumes,
stored in the vehicle can cause a fire
or even explosion easily.

●Make sure cigarettes are thoroughly
put out.

●Smoking is not only harmful to your
health, but can also may cause a fire.
Cigarettes that not thoroughly put
out may cause a fire.

Page 90

●It is recommended to go to a BYD
authorized dealer or service provider
for regular vehicle checks.

●Check vehicle wiring, connections,
wiring harnesses, insulation, fixed
position regularly. Deal with
identified problems promptly.

●Do not refit vehicle wiring or add any
unauthorized electrical appliance.

●The addition of extra electrical
appliances, such as high-power
audio systems, light fixtures, etc.,
may overload and overheat the
wiring harness and increase the risk
of fire. Improper refitting of electrical
appliances or wiring may cause a
fire due to contact resistance and
abnormal heating.

●Fuses or other replacement wires in
excess of relevant electrical rating are
strictly prohibited.

●Select a proper parking location.

●When the vehicle is parked,
especially in summer, do check
whether there are any flammables
such as dry grasses, dead woods,
leaves or wheat straws under the
vehicle. If any, a fire may be caused.

●When the vehicle is running, avoid
driving on the road sections piled
up with flammables such as dry
leaves, wheat straws and grasses,
or immediately stop the vehicle to
check whether any flammables are
carried along after passing such road
sections. When parking the vehicle,
try to avoid sun exposure.

●Keep a lightweight fire extinguisher in
the vehicle and know how to use it.

●In order to ensure vehicle safety, a
fire extinguisher should be equipped
in the vehicle, and be checked and
replaced regularly. Also, you should
familiarize yourself with use of the

fire extinguisher and be prepared for
any accidents.

●In the event of a fire in the vehicle,
take effective measures in a timely and
calm manner to minimize any losses.

●Fires typically show initial warning
signs, such as abnormal noises and
odors in the vehicle body. When
abnormal conditions are found, turn
off and stop the vehicle immediately.
Try to put out the fire if possible.

●Call a fire emergency number and
then contact a BYD authorized dealer
or service provider.

04

REMINDER

USING AND DRIVING

●In order to mitigate losses in the
event of an accident, the purchase
of commercial insurance (fire loss,
theft, etc.) is recommended.

Wading into Water

●Check water depth - it must not exceed
the vehicle's lower edge before driving
into flooded areas.

●If crossing a flooded area is necessary,
turn off the air conditioner, decrease
the speed, and keep acceleration
steady to slowly cross over.

●Be careful when driving through deep
water, as brakes may get wet. After
crossing over, press the brake pedal

Page 91

several times to dry out the disks and
recover brake performance.

WARNING

●Drive carefully to avoid accident
when there is any water or slurry
on the brake disc surface, as this
may increase the brake response
time thus extending the braking
distance.

●Carefully apply any wet brake, and
remove ice or water on it.

●Avoid emergency braking as far as
possible after driving through any
waterlogged road section.

●If the vehicle drives on
the waterlogged road, prevent
water from entering the motor,
otherwise the motor will
be damaged seriously. Such
damaged is not covered by the
vehicle's warranty

●After the vehicle drives through
waterlogged road sections,
vehicle components, such as
drive system, driving system and
automotive electric system may
also be damaged seriously. Such
damage is not covered by the
vehicle's warranty either.

●Be sure to find a sheltered
place when charging the vehicle
on rainy days. If the vehicle
is immersed in water or
wades through water over
the doorsill, which may cause
water ingress in high-voltage
components, promptly contact
a BYD authorized dealer or
service provider for testing and
troubleshooting.

●Do not drive the vehicle on
the road where the depth of

WARNING

accumulated water exceeds half
of the tires.

Influence of water ingress in high-
voltage components:

●Water getting into high-voltage
components, which are electronic
devices, may not be fully dried out by
any means.

●Water ingress seriously compromises
insulation of high-voltage
components, and conductive
substances in water may lead to short
circuit of high-voltage components or
such risk in the entire high-voltage
system. This significantly affects the
safety and service performance of the
vehicle.

●The reduced ingress protection
rating and voltage withstanding
performance due to water in high-
voltage components pose a high safety
risk.
