Wading into Water
●
Check water depth - it must not exceed
the vehicle's lower edge - before
driving into ooded areas.
●
If crossing a ooded area is necessary,
turn o the air conditioner and keep
acceleration steady to slowly cross
over.
●
Never stop, back up, or turn o the
vehicle in ooded areas.
●
After crossing over, press the brake
pedal several times to dry out the disks
and recover brake performance.
●
Be careful when driving through deep
water, as brakes may get wet.
WARNING
●
The presence of water, mud, or
silt in the braking system may
delay brake response and extend
braking distance.
●
Drive carefully and avoid
emergency braking after crossing
ooded areas.
●
The motor will be seriously
damaged if it is submerged when
crossing a ooded area. Such
damaged is not covered by the
vehicle's warranty
●
Other systems like transmission,
driving and electrical systems may
WARNING
also be seriously damaged upon
submersion. Such damage is not
covered by the vehicle's warranty
either.
Inuence 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 signicantly aects 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.
●
Be sure to nd 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 on
roads where the depth of accumulated
water exceeds half of the tires.
