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. Read the following
information carefully and observe it
strictly.

WARNING

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

●The seat belts are designed for
adults and are not intended for
children. Make sure to choose an
appropriate child restraint system
according to your child's age and
size (see P21 in this chapter).

●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.

●BYD has highly emphasized that all
occupants should always fasten their
seat belts while in the vehicle to
prevent serious injury or death.

●It is recommended that children be
seated in rear seats and always use
seat belts and suitable child restraints.
In case of emergency braking or a
collision, unprotected children may be
seriously injured and their lives may
be endangered. Likewise, do not allow
a child to be carried on someone's
lap. This will render the children not
adequately protected.

Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)

●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
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.

Using Seat Belts

1. Adjust the seat position and seatback
angle (see P59).

2. Adjust the position of the three-point
seat belt.

●Keep the correct sitting posture and
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.

Page 12

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.

4. Adjust the height of the (front)
seat belts for optimum comfort and
protection.

① Press the adjuster release button.

② Move the adjuster up or down to the
intended position. Release the button to
lock the adjuster.

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 be 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.

01

SAFETY

●The lap belt should be positioned
as low as possible around the hips
to avoid serious injury due to the
intense lap belt forces against the
abdomen in an accident.

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

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 smoothly
and automatically, pull it out and
check whether it is twisted.

WARNING

●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

Page 13

WARNING

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
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.

●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 need to fasten
the seat belts properly and
position the lapbelt as low as
possible around the hips to avoid
serious injury from the intense lap
belt forces against the abdomen
in an accident.

●The method of wearing a rear
seat belt is the same as that
for a front seat belt. For normal
functioning of the rear seat belt,
ensure that its latch is inserted
into the corresponding buckle
during use. The driver should

WARNING

remind passengers to wear seat
belts properly.

●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 any occupant 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 main indicator

●Any unfastened seat belt will trigger
the main indicator to flash.

●Display of unfastened seat belt

●The indicator for each corresponding
seat will light up to display the
position of the unfastened seat belt.

●Seat belt reminders

●If the driver or any passenger has
not buckled up after the ignition
is switched on, the main seat belt
reminder indicator and the indicator
for the corresponding seat light up.
When the vehicle is in motion and
the driver or any passenger has not
buckled up, the seat belt reminder
indicator flashes and an audible
alarm is given.

●When the driver and all the
passengers fasten the seat belts,
the main indicator and the
corresponding seat indicator turn off.

WARNING

●In the event of abnormality
or function failure, contact

Page 14

WARNING

a BYD authorized dealer or
service provider. Do not use
the corresponding seat until the
functions return to normal.

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

Airbags

Airbag Overview

●The airbag system is a part of
supplemental restraint system and
also a supplement to 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 occupants, reducing likelihood of
personal injuries 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 seat side
airbags and side curtain airbags.

●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.

WARNING

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

01

SAFETY

●Do not disassemble or assemble
airbag components.

●If the seatbacks get wet from
rain or splashes, the side airbag
system may not work properly.

●Do not use seat covers, as they
restrict airbag deployment on the
corresponding side in an accident.

●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.

●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.

●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.

Page 15

Airbag Types

① Driver and front passenger airbags
④ Rear seat side airbags

② Front seat side airbags
⑤ Side curtain airbags

③ Far side airbag

Driver and Front
Passenger Airbags

●The vehicle is equipped with driver
and front passenger airbags, when the
airbag system detects a moderate to
severe front impact during driving and
the triggering conditions are met, the
airbags deploy.

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

Page 16

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.

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.

Seat Side Airbags

Front/Rear seat side airbags

●The vehicle is equipped with front/
rear seat side airbags (mounted on
the outside of seat back, marked
with "AIRBAG" at both sides). When
a moderate to severe side impact
is detected during vehicle travel and
the triggering conditions are met, the
airbag deploys to protect the chest of
the occupant on the side of collision.

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

●If the impact occurs on the passenger's
side, the airbag on the passenger's side

deploys even if there is no passenger in
the seat.

●For optimal front/rear side airbag
protection, occupants must have their
seat belts fastened and sit upright
against the seatback.

01

Far side airbag

●The vehicle is equipped with a far
side airbag (mounted on the inner side
of the driver's seatback and marked
with "AIRBAG"). When a moderate to
severe front or side impact is detected
during vehicle travel and the triggering
conditions are met, the far side airbag
deploys to protect the heads and
shoulders of the driver and the front
passenger.

SAFETY

●If the impact occurs on the front
passenger's side, the far side airbag
deploys even if there is no passenger
in the seat.

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

Side Curtain Airbags

●The vehicle is equipped with left and
right side curtain airbags (mounted
at the junction of the body side
trim and the ceiling and marked with
"AIRBAG" on the B-pillar and C-pillar
trims). When a moderate to severe
side impact is detected during vehicle
travel and the triggering conditions are
met, the side curtain airbag deploys to
protect the head of the occupant on
the side of collision.

●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.

Page 17

Airbag Triggering
Conditions and
Precautions

Airbag Triggering Conditions

●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,
obstacle type, and vehicle speed. The
airbag system may be triggered in
special collisions.

●The airbag system does not always
work in any accident, and generally it
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.

●Determinants of airbag system
triggering: Decision is made by
comparing the deceleration curve,
generated in the collision and obtained
by the electronic control unit (ECU)
and the set value. If signals, such as
the deceleration curve generated and
measured in the collision, are lower
than the respective reference values
preset in the ECU, the airbag system
will not be triggered even if the vehicle
may have been seriously deformed in
the accident.

●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
the airbags will achieve their expected
effect.

Cases When Airbags May Be Deployed

① The vehicle's nose hits the ground
when crossing a deep groove.

② The vehicle hits a bump or curbstone.

③ The vehicle's nose hits the ground
when going down a steep slope.

④ One side of the vehicle is hit by another
vehicle.

Cases When Airbags May Not Be
Deployed

① The vehicle hits a concrete column,
tree, or other slim objects.

② The vehicle goes under a truck or
another large vehicle.

③ The tail of the vehicle is hit by another
vehicle.

④ The vehicle rolls over.

⑤ The vehicle hits a wall or a vehicle at a
side other than the front side.

Page 18

⑥ Parts other than the passenger
compartment receive side impact.

⑦ The lateral side of the vehicle is hit
diagonally.

⑧ The lateral side of the vehicle hits a
columnar object.

WARNING

●Airbags are designed for
specific models. Any changes to
suspension, tire size, bumpers,
chassis and factory-equipped
devices may adversely affect the
airbag system. Users must not use
any parts of the airbag system
on other vehicle models; doing so
may lead to failure of the airbag
system.

●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 protection.

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

●Do not paste stickers, cover or
decorate the hub cover of the
steering wheel, the right side
surface of the dashboard at and

WARNING

near the location of the airbag,
the surface of A, B, and C-pillar
trims, or the surface at and
near the location of seat side
airbags with any object. Clean
these surfaces with a dry or damp
cloth, without applying too much
pressure.

01

SAFETY

●Children are not to be seated
unprotected, nor are they to
ride sitting on an adult's lap,
to prevent serious injury or
even casualty caused by airbag
deployment.

●Side airbags and side curtain
airbags deploy quickly with high
impact forces. Occupants must
not lean against the doors of
vehicles equipped with these
airbags while these vehicles are
in motion, because doing so may
result in serious injuries or even
death.

●Do not place any other
accessories or items within the
action range of side curtain
airbags, including the windshield,
side door glass, A-pillar trim,
ceiling, B-pillar trim, C-pillar trim
and auxiliary handles. When
the side curtain airbag deploys,
the accessories or items will
be thrown by the impact force
from the side air curtain airbag,
or the side curtain airbag may
not deploy normally, resulting in
serious injury or even death.

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

●Do not modify or replace seats
or trims of the seats with

Page 19

WARNING

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.

●Do not disassemble or repair the
A-pillar trim, ceiling, B-pillar trim
or C-pillar trim, which contain side
curtain airbags. These changes
can cause failure of the airbag
system or accidental deployment
of curtain airbags, which may
cause serious injury or even
death.

●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.

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

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

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

●The airbag system of this vehicle
is designed with full consideration
of common misuses and road

WARNING

conditions. However, in order to
avoid accidents, do not have the
bottom of the vehicle impacted
or drive roughly in harsh road
conditions.

Child Restraint
System

Child Restraint System

Child restraint systems provide good
protection to your child in an accident.
For the child's safety, please carefully
read the instructions provided with the

child restraint and in this manual before
installing a child restraint.

WARNING

●Never carry a child on your lap in
a vehicle journey.

01

●Children must use a suitable
child restraint when traveling
in the vehicle. Children should
sit comfortably and safely. Make

Data Collection and
Processing

Data Collection and
Processing

●This section provides you with
some important information on how
personal data is collected and
processed when you use a BYD vehicle.

●For a more detailed overview on
data processing, data protection and
data subject rights, please refer to
the current version of the privacy
policy for the vehicle available in the
infotainment system ( 

 → System →
Privacy policy).

●This vehicle is equipped with an
event data recording (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.

●ACC status.

●Whether the seat belt is fastened.

●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.

Page 26

●The EDR data needs to be accessed
and read by special equipment. BYD
will not disclose your personal data
to third parties unless 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).

Vehicle Data Processing

●Data is collected when the vehicle
is used, such as data collected or
transmitted by vehicle sensors or
control units, which is necessary for
the safe functioning of your vehicle.

●In some cases, the data is used
to support driving (driver assistance
systems) or to enable a specific
comfort or infotainment function.

●Personal data that is collected and
processed mainly include in-vehicle
data, remote-services-related data,
and other data, as further specified
below.

In-vehicle data

Operation data

●When the vehicle is used, various
vehicle status data (concerning speed,
battery level, and the braking system)
or environment data (including
distance sensors and temperature) are
collected and processed.

●This data is not usually stored,
but there are control units, sensors
or other components installed in
the vehicle that record such data,
for example, to record maintenance
requirements, error messages, or other
information.

●The in-vehicle data will only be
stored in the equipment in the
vehicle but can be read out via
the legally required OBD ("On Board
Diagnostics") interface, for example,
by BYD authorized dealer or service
provider or other third parties.

01

●In case this access takes place
during vehicle maintenance, the
information can also be transmitted to
BYD engineers for quality assurance,
product defect reports, or customer
claim verification.

SAFETY

Remote-services-related data

Remote monitoring services

●The vehicle has remote monitoring
services. These include remote
diagnosis and over-the-air (OTA)
updates and upgrades for security and
safety purposes (subject to owner's
approval).

●These monitoring services serve the
following purposes: service provision
(remote support/diagnostics), product
development, and security/public
safety.

●Depending on the country and setup,
various vehicle information can be
transmitted to BYD's data center in
corresponding market for the above
purposes, including vehicle location
information, vehicle status, such as
energy consumption, vehicle speed,
gear position, power mode, ESC status,
steering system status, battery status,
powertrain status, and overall vehicle
performance status.

Other

Infotainment system

●Depending on vehicle configuration,
data can be added to the infotainment
system by the users themselves, such
as media data for playing video on the
infotainment system, address data for

Page 27

use in the navigation system, or data
for use in online services.

●Depending on vehicle configuration,
individual settings in and on the
vehicle can also be entered.

●Data stored in the vehicle can be
deleted at any time.

●BYD has no control over data
transferred to third parties (from the
use of third party content, in particular
as part of online services).

Integration of mobile devices

●Depending on vehicle configurations,
mobile devices can be connected
and controlled through the vehicle's
infotainment system.

●It may be necessary that the device's
screen or audio is displayed/played
through the infotainment system or
transmitted to it.

●Additional data like positioning or
vehicle information can be transmitted
through applications for use in certain
navigation systems, communication,
or other third-party services.

●The specific type of data processing
depends on the respective function
and is controlled by the user or third
parties such as the provider of the
devices or corresponding services.

Internet access and connected services

●Depending on vehicle configurations,
the Internet can be accessed for certain
functions or BYD services through the
vehicle's infotainment system network
devices.

●BYD is not liable for any such services
provided by any other party.

●In such cases, please obtain
information about the use of data from
the provider of the respective online
service.

Camera image recording/surrounding
area monitoring

●Your vehicle is equipped with a
number of cameras/sensors.

●The reason for this is that some vehicle
functionalities require the vehicle's
path to be detected and assessed
which is done by cameras that detect
objects in the vehicle's surroundings
such as obstacles.

●The images are transmitted to the
respective control module for further
analytics required to operate the
systems.

●Some images are just processed on
a volatile basis (RAM), others may
be stored, depending on vehicle
equipment.

●The vehicle may be equipped with
an outward-facing camera (OFC) that
can be used to take footage of the
surrounding (for example, dashcam).

●The vehicle may also be equipped with
an inward-facing camera (IFC), which
can be used to take footage inside the
vehicle.

●Both OFC and IFC footage is stored.

●You are responsible to check the laws
of your residence before turning on
your OFC or IFC (for instance, in some
countries consent is required for the
use of IFC, and in others OFC is strictly
restricted to dashcam purposes).

●For more camera details, see P133.

Permanent Vehicle Transfer to Third
Parties and Offline Mode

●In case of a permanent vehicle transfer,
that is, when you sell or give a
vehicle to a new owner for permanent
use, it must be noted that any
personalization/user settings made via
the infotainment system (including the

Page 28

address list and the navigation system)
can be accessed by the new owner.

●You can also restrict your vehicle's
communication with the BYD data
server and the processing of vehicle-
related and personal data by setting
the vehicle to offline mode.

●On the infotainment touchscreen, tap

 to turn Wi-Fi off.

●You can also disable Wi-Fi in 

 →

System → Link → WLAN.

Disclosure of Personal Data to
Authorities

●BYD will not discloses your personal
data to third parties unless this
is legally permissible or you have
consented to it.

●However, subject to applicable
laws, government agencies may be
authorized to read out data from
vehicles (for example, data can be read
from the airbag control unit to clarify
an accident).

●If required by law, BYD may also be
obliged to disclose data upon request
to governmental authorities in your
country, such as in the investigation of
a criminal offence.

Your Data Protection Rights

●BYD has staunch respect for its
customer's privacy, and strictly
complies with all data protection
laws, in particular the General Data
Protection Regulation (GDPR) and
applicable local laws.

●According to these laws, owners have
specific rights when their personal
data is processed:

●Data subjects have the right
of information and access, to

rectification, erasure of personal data
("right to be forgotten") and the
right to object to the processing of
personal data or to restrict it (or to
withdraw consent given earlier, as
well as the right to data portability).

01

●These rights may be limited in some
cases. For example, if we can show
that we have a legal obligation to
process your data, or if providing the
information to you would disclose
personal data about another person,
or if we are legally prevented from
disclosing that information.

SAFETY

●In some cases, this may mean that
we can retain the data even if you
withdraw your consent.

 ABS fault warning light

●This warning light comes on when the
ignition is on. If the anti-lock braking
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 brake system
fault warning light off), the braking
system continues to operate whereas
ABS does not.

Page 35

●When the ABS fault warning light is on
(with the parking brake system fault
warning light off), since ABS 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,
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.

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 parking
brake 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 indicator and the
braking system indicator come on and
the electronic parking brake (EPB)
is fully released, the braking force
distribution system of front and rear
wheels has also failed.

Tire pressure fault warning light

●This warning light comes on when the
ignition is on. It turns 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, the message
"Please check TPMS" is displayed
on the instrument cluster, and the
tire pressure is displayed as "---", it
indicates that the tire pressure system
is faulty.

●When the tire pressure value displays
"No Signal", it indicates that the tire
pressure signal at this location may
be interfered or the tire pressure
monitoring module is damaged.

●When the tire pressure fault warning
light flashes rapidly and one or more
values turn red on the tire pressure
screen on the instrument cluster, the
corresponding tire is leaking rapidly.

●When the tire pressure fault warning
light is solid on and one or more
values turn yellow on the tire pressure
screen on the instrument cluster, the
corresponding tire is in under-pressure
condition. When the temperature value
of one or more tires turns yellow, it
indicates that the tire temperature is
too high.

●In the event of any of the situations
above, it is recommended to contact
a BYD authorized dealer or service
provider for inspection as soon as
possible.

Electronic stability control (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

Page 36

motion, it indicates the ESC system is
working.

●When the ESC warning light turns on
(with the ABS fault warning light and
the parking brake 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 brake 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
dealer or service provider for vehicle
inspection as soon as possible.

●This warning light remains off (self-
check not performed) after the
vehicle is powered on.

●This warning light is steady on while
driving.

REMINDER

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

●If the ESC warning light remains
on while the warning lights for the
ABS and the braking system are
on, immediately stop the vehicle
in a safe place and 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

●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
returns to normal.

02

REMINDER

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER

●While the ESC OFF warning
light is on, the driver must
stay alert and drive at a lower
speed when making a sharp turn
and when avoiding an obstacle
which appears suddenly, because
braking at this time can render
the vehicle unstable, given the
malfunction of ESC system.

Driving power limit warning light

●When the power of the vehicle is
limited, this indicator will come on.
In this case, contact a BYD authorized
dealer or service provider in time.

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 during
driving.

Parking brake system fault
warning light

●When the brake fluid level is low
and the braking system is faulty,
this warning light lights up. If any
of the following conditions occurs,
immediately park the vehicle in a safe

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

●This warning light comes on when
the ignition is switched on and the
brake fluid level is low.

●This warning light is solid on
although after starting the vehicle,
the brake fluid level and EPB system
operation are normal (the EPB is
engaged and released normally, and
the message "Please check the EPB"
is not displayed). Brief flashing is
considered normal.

●Fault warning lights for parking brake
and ABS come on simultaneously.

REMINDER

●When the brake fluid level is low,
park the vehicle because it is
dangerous to continue driving.

 Steering system fault warning

light

●When the steering system is faulty,
this warning light is steady on. It is
recommended to bring the vehicle to
a BYD authorized dealer or service
provider for inspection.

REMINDER

●The steering system features an
electric motor to reduce the force
required to turn the steering
wheel.

●When turning the steering wheel,
a hum may be heard from the
running motor. This does not
indicate that the motor is faulty.

●Do not turn the steering wheel
to its limit position for more

Page 38

REMINDER

than five seconds, otherwise the
temperature protection will be
activated and the steering system
will be damaged or steering will
become heavy.

●If you have turned the steering wheel
frequently with the vehicle staying put
for a long time, the steering wheel may
become difficult to turn even if the
warning light does not turn on. This is
not a fault.

●To prevent steering system
overheating, the power assist effect
will be reduced if the steering wheel
has been frequently turned with the
vehicle staying put for a long time. As
a result, the steering wheel become
difficult to turn. In this case, reduce
steering frequency or power off the
vehicle. The system will recover
within 10 minutes.

●In certain situations, disconnecting the
low-voltage battery or fuses may cause
the vehicle to lose power. After power
is restored, the ESC fault warning light
may light up. To reset the system, you
need to perform the steering angle
zero-point calibration: Slowly turn the
steering wheel all the way to the left
and hold it for 2–5 seconds, then
turn it all the way to the right and
hold for another 2–5 seconds. After
releasing the steering wheel, turn off
the vehicle and wait for at least 10
seconds. Upon restarting the vehicle,
the ESC fault warning light should turn
off, indicating that the calibration is
complete.

WARNING

●If the steering system fault
warning light goes on,
immediately park the vehicle

WARNING

safely, and contact a BYD
authorized dealer or service
provider.

Low-voltage power system fault
warning light

02

●If this warning light turns on while
the vehicle is in motion, it indicates

Child Protection Lock

Child protection locks on the driver's
door switches are designed to prevent
children sitting in the rear seats from
inadvertently opening the rear doors.

① Child protection lock for the rear left
door

② Child protection lock for the rear right
door

that the doors are closed and the
child protection lock function is
enabled.

●Proper use of seat belts and
activation of child protection lock

WARNING

helps prevent the driver and
passengers from being thrown out
of the vehicle in an accident, and
also prevents a door from being
opened accidentally.

Seats

Seat Precautions

●Adjust the driver's seat so that the
pedals, steering wheel, and dashboard
controls are within the driver's easy
control.

●While driving, the most effective
safeguard is to keep the seatback
upright, always rest well on the
seatback, and adjust the seat belt to
the right position.

●Do not fold or unfold the rear seats
when the vehicle is in motion.

●Secure your luggage appropriately to
prevent it from skidding or moving.
Luggage in the vehicle should not be
higher than seatbacks.

●The head support can only protect
your head when it is in the proper
position. Remember to adjust it to the
proper position if it has been moved.

WARNING

●Sitting on a folded seatback,
in the trunk, or on the cargo
is prohibited. Improper seating
position or improperly fastened
seat belts can result in personal
injuries in case of emergency
braking or a collision.

●Do not place any items under
the seats. The driver may lose

Page 58

WARNING

control of the vehicle because
items placed there affect the seat
locking mechanism, causing the
seat to move suddenly.

●When adjusting the seat, do not
place your hand under the seat or
near its operating parts to prevent
being crushed.

●After adjusting the seatback, lean
back to confirm the seatback
is locked. Seatbacks that are
not fully locked can cause
personal injuries in an accident or
emergency braking.

●Do not put the seatback down
while driving or riding in the
vehicle. This makes the shoulder
strap of the seat belt not properly
attached to the body. As a result,
occupants in the vehicle could hit
the strap in an accident, causing
injuries to the neck or other parts;
or they may slip out of the waist
belt, resulting in other serious
injuries.

●Do not adjust the driver's seat
while the vehicle is in motion, as
unpredictable seat movement can
cause the loss of vehicle control.

●Do not drive the vehicle until
occupants are seated properly.

CAUTION

●Adjust the seat position before
fastening the seat belt.

●While adjusting a seat, do not let
it hit against any passenger or the
luggage.

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

Compatibility of vehicle and charging
infrastructure*

Page 76

●Compatibiliy signs are located on
the vehicle's charging socket, the
local charging infrastructure (charging
stations and sockets), and on the
charging cable.

●The signs refer to standardized
charging systems in accordance with
DIN EN 62196.

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 and your
driving experience will be affected.

●Mode 2 charging means charging
with an AC charging connector. It is
recommended to use the dedicated
AC lines and power sockets meeting
local standards to avoid line damage
and protective trip due to high-power
charging, which can affect the normal
use of other equipment.

●Observe the following to prevent
damage to the charging equipment
(charging equipment precautions):

●Prevent the charging equipment
from any mechanical impact, such
as falling and colliding with other
objects.

●Do not place the charging equipment
near heaters or other heating
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 the 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:

04

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

USING AND DRIVING

●Pull out the charging connector.

●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.

●Precautions during charging:

●The A/C can be used as normal
while the vehicle is being charged.
To ensure the charging power, it is
recommended to turn off the A/C.

●It is recommended that no one stay
in the vehicle during charging.

●It is recommended to park the
vehicle in a ventilated area during
charging.

●The vehicle system automatically
stops charging when the high-voltage
battery is fully charged. The charge
port is equipped with an electronic
lock. Unlock it before unplugging the
charging equipment.

●To stop AC or DC charging, turn
off the charger before disconnecting
the charging connector. In Mode

Page 77

2 charging, remove the charging
connector and then the power plug.

●When charging is complete and the
charging connector is unplugged,
make sure that the charge port's cap
and door are closed, otherwise water
or foreign materials may enter the port
and affect its normal use.

●During DC charging, the charging
power is relatively small during the
identification period when the real
capability of the charging pile is
identified and its maximum output
capacity is exerted, thereby bringing
a better charging experience to users
(only for motor booster DC charging).

●Before starting the vehicle, ensure
that the charging equipment is
disconnected. 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.

●Too high or too low battery
temperatures compromise vehicle
charging performance.

●The temperature control system
can improve the battery's charging
capacity at low temperatures. Due
to output capacity limitations of
charging piles, the charging time is
extended, the heating time becomes
longer and the power consumption
of heating is increased. This is a
normal phenomenon.

●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

battery is relatively hot and has
better charging performance.

●In low-temperature regions, it is
recommended to charge the vehicle
in a heated indoor space.

●In high-temperature regions, it is
recommended to charge in a cool
and ventilated place.

●If the battery has not been fully
charged for a long time, the
instrument cluster may prompt a
message showing "Please charge the
vehicle to full capacity to allow the
battery to balance automatically." It
is recommended to fully charge the
vehicle as soon as possible to ensure
the lifespan of the battery.

●Turning A/C on during low-
temperature charging affects the
performance of the battery
temperature control system and
charging.

●It is normal that when the battery
temperature control system is working
during charging, the charging power
displayed on the instrument cluster
may fluctuate temporarily.

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

●The use of A/C may worsen
battery temperature control system
performance in DC charging at
high temperatures, resulting in lower
charging performance and longer
charging time. To ensure charging
efficiency, it is recommended to keep
the A/C off during charging.

●When the heating or 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

Page 78

and other components work when
necessary. It is normal that there will
be some noise under the hood.

●During charging, the estimated
remaining time to full charge is
displayed on the instrument cluster
and may vary slightly, depending on
the temperatures, SOC, and charging
facilities. Before charging is completed,
"Calculating..." is displayed on the
instrument cluster.

●If the charge port door is frozen due to
weather or other reasons, do not force
it open.

●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.

REMINDER

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

Driving Range Display

The default driving range display mode
is Standard. You can change the display
mode in infotainment touchscreen → 

→ Energy → Energy → Range display
mode.

●Standard mode: displays the driving
range based on the result of
comprehensive working condition test.

●Dynamic mode: displays the estimated
driving range based on the available
battery power and current average
energy consumption.

●The set driving range display mode is
memorized by the system. When the
vehicle is powered off and then on,
the display mode set last time will be
maintained.

REMINDER

●When the Dynamic driving range
display mode is set:

●The driving range that is
displayed after a full charge may
vary, depending on calculations
of the energy consumed the last
time the vehicle is used.

●The displayed driving range is
adjusted based on whether the
A/C is on, selection of driving
mode, and the driver's driving
habits, so that this range can
be closer to the estimated
remaining range under current
use.

Batteries

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

Page 90

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.

CAUTION

●When the ignition is switched
on, the high-voltage lines will be
connected.

●For vehicles with normal high-
voltage battery status, the mileage
will change due to different
driving habits, road conditions,
temperatures, and whether the
electrical equipment is turned on
or off.

●To prolong the battery life
and ensure the battery safety,
the vehicle switches to trickle
charging mode at high SOC,
and the charging time may be
prolonged.

●Due to the chemical
characteristics of the battery
itself, the battery capacity of
vehicles that have been used
for a period of time has natural
degradation, and their mileage
will reduce. When you find that
the mileage of your vehicle has
decreased, it is recommended to
go to a BYD authorized dealer or
service provider for check. The
store-side inspection can confirm
whether the reduction of mileage
is normal.

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.

●When the high-voltage battery is low,
V2L is unavailable. Charge the battery
promptly.

●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. Power
performance may also decline under
extreme temperatures.

04

USING AND DRIVING

●When charging in low
temperatures, the temperature
control system can significantly
improve charging capability. See
"Charging Precautions" for details.

●When the vehicle is used at
low temperatures, the battery's
temperature control system will start
heating the battery as appropriate
to ensure the driving power
and discharging performance and
improve your driving experience.
When the vehicle is driven over short
distances, heating may be ineffective,
which increases power consumption
and decreases driving range.

●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.

Page 91

●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.

●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%.

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

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.
Preferably 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.

●It is recommended to fully charge the
vehicle at a regular basis (at least once
a week), and fully charge it from low
battery (SOC <10%) once every three to
six months.

●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 injuries, do
not touch the high-voltage
battery directly.

●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.

Page 92

WARNING

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.

CAUTION

●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.

●As the high-voltage battery is
arranged at the bottom of
the vehicle, careful driving is
recommended in case of bumpy
roads. If there is a collision
with the high-voltage battery,
contact a BYD authorized dealer
or service provider immediately
for maintenance.

●Do not add battery coolant
by users themselves. If needed,
contact a BYD authorized dealer
or service provider.

●No one is allowed to enter the
vehicle when the battery pack
needs to be repaired.

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
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.

04

USING AND DRIVING

Low-Voltage Battery

The low-voltage battery is located under
the left front seat.

●The battery works in normal, sleep,
ultra-low power, or low voltage
protection mode. The purpose is to
protect the battery cell from damage. If
the vehicle system is in good condition,
the vehicle switches between these
modes automatically, having no effect
on your use of the vehicle.

●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).

●When the intelligent charging function
is triggered, the low-voltage battery

Page 93

is charged through the high-voltage
battery. Therefore, it is normal that the
SOC or the pure-electric driving range
displayed on the instrument cluster
decreases when the vehicle is powered
on after an idle period.

●If intelligent charging fails, the low-
voltage battery may cut off the
vehicle's power supply. If you find
before use that the vehicle is not
powered, try to activate the low-
voltage battery by pressing the driver's
door microswitch continuously, and
immediately power on the vehicle to
charge the low-voltage battery. It is
recommended to charge it for more
than one hour.

WARNING

●The low-voltage battery contains
a corrosive solution. To prevent
damage to the battery or injury,
do not disassemble or repair the
battery.

●Do not disassemble or dismantle
the low-voltage battery. Any
organization or individual to do
so shall bear the responsibility
for environmental pollution or
accidents.

●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
that happens, use baking soda
water to clean the skin, and
plenty of water to rinse the eyes,
and immediately seek medical
attention.

WARNING

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

●Keep children away from the low-
voltage battery.

CAUTION

●The low-voltage battery contains
relays. Thus, it is normal that relay
operating sounds may be emitted
from the battery.

●The low-voltage battery shall
be charged with professional
charging tools, and shall not be
removed for recharging by users
themselves.

●The low-voltage battery has a
built-in power manager. Do not
disassemble or repair the battery
to avoid damaging the battery or
causing personal injuries.

●The low-voltage battery needs to
communicate with the vehicle for
normal use, so it is important to
connect its connector and wiring
harness correctly.

Waking up the Vehicle from Low SOC

Wake-up by the driver's door
microswitch

●The low-voltage battery features the
dormant/wake-up function. The low-
voltage battery may enter a dormant
state after long-term parking. In that
case, the vehicle cannot be located
or unlocked with the smart key. Press
the microswitch on the driver's door
handle for three seconds to activate
the low-voltage battery. After the
vehicle is unlocked, it can be used
normally.

Page 94

Wake-up by jump start

●When the vehicle cannot be woken
up and unlocked by the driver's door
microswitch, use the mechanical key
to open the door. Then, use a 12V
power supply to start the vehicle by
two specially designed cables for the
jump start. In this case, the low-voltage
battery SOC is low. The instrument
cluster may display "The low-voltage
battery SOC is low, and the vehicle
is going to be powered off", and the
vehicle will become dormant again.
Start the vehicle immediately and keep
it started for over 15 minutes to ensure
that the low-voltage battery is fully
charged.

●The jump start can only be carried
out through the special interface of
the under-hood PDB. The connection
terminals for the jump start in the
under-hood PDB are shown in the
illustration.

●Positive terminal ①

●Negative terminal ②

●If the vehicle cannot be woken up
and started by the above steps, it
is recommended to contact a BYD
authorized dealer or service provider
immediately.

WARNING

●Do not connect the vehicle
with other vehicles for a jump

WARNING

start before it is powered
on. Otherwise, the low-voltage
battery may be damaged.

●If the low-voltage battery SOC is
too low or the battery fails, jump
starting may be required. Please
carefully read and strictly follow
the jump starting instructions in
this manual.

●The low-voltage battery contains
an intelligent control module. To
prevent battery damage, do not
disassemble or repair this battery,
except in an emergency.

04

●Disconnect the negative terminal
of the low-voltage battery before
performing parts replacement and
vehicle repairs.

USING AND DRIVING

CAUTION

●It is recommended that the jump
start be done under the guidance
of professionals, as the space for
operating the under-hood PDB is
limited and circuit-based risks are
present.

●Do not clean the low-voltage
battery with liquid to prevent
ingress.

Intelligent Charging

●If the high-voltage battery has
sufficient power, it will charge the
low-voltage battery when the latter is
detected to be low.

REMINDER

●When the vehicle is stored for a
long time, it is normal that the
smart charging function may be

Page 95

REMINDER

activated with fans in the hood
working.

●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.

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. This
should preferably be done within the
first 2,000 km in economic mode.
Steady driving instead of high-speed
driving is recommended. The following

Note

1. The maximum allowed towing capacity equals the total trailer weight, which includes
all cargo and additional equipment.

2. Maximum vertical load refers to the downward pressure exerted by the weight of the
trailer on the trailer hitch when the vehicle and the trailer are stationary.

●To tow a trailer, adjust the tire pressure
to accommodate additional loads.
Keep front tires inflated to 290 kPa and
rear tires to 310 kPa.

●Observe applicable local laws and
regulations regarding towing. For
driving safety, avoid speeding and
overloading.

●For towing, the technically permissible
maximum mass on the rear axle may
be exceeded by no more than 15% and
the technically permissible laden mass
of the vehicle may be exceeded by no
more than 100 kg. In these instances,
the vehicle speed must not exceed
100 km/h and the rear tire pressure
must be at least 20 kPa above the
tire pressure recommended for normal
use.

●Towing other vehicles will have
an adverse impact on the
vehicle, including maneuverability,
performance, braking, endurance,
economic driving or power
consumption.

●BYD does not assume any
responsibility for damage or injuries
resulting from towing a trailer due
to failure to comply with the proper
guidelines. Damage caused by towing
a trailer is not covered by the warranty.

Driving Safety
Precautions

04

USING AND DRIVING

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.

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.

Page 97

CAUTION

●Always follow the traffic
regulations when driving a
vehicle.

●During driving, please focus
on driving, and avoid activity
unrelated to driving (such as
making / receiving phone calls
and adjusting buttons).

Vehicle Use Suggestions

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 malfunctions
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 98

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 equipped with
regenerative braking and you can set
the regenerative braking intensity in
the infotainment touchscreen → 

 →
Energy → Energy Manager. In high
energy recovery mode, more energy is
recovered during vehicle braking and
coasting.You can 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:

●Energy 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 add
the load of vehicle, increasing energy
consumption.

4. Other tips:

04

●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, storage boxes on
interior trim panels and seatback
pockets are designed for small and
light objects, while the trunk for large
and heavy objects.

Page 99

●Make sure the vehicle's total load
(vehicle + passengers + luggage)
remains within the specified maximum
weight.

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 normal operations.

Carrying Luggage 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
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
in 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.

●For trunk strapping or fastening
supplies, contact a BYD authorized
dealer or service provider.

Wading into Water

●Before driving into flooded areas,
check the water depth and make sure
it does not exceed the vehicle's lower
edge.

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

●Never stop, back up, or turn off the
vehicle in flooded areas.
