4-5 Driving Auxiliary Functions 181
■ If the ABS fault warning light remains on when the brake system warning
light illuminates, park the vehicle where it is safe to do so immediately and
contact a BYD authorised service provider.
■ ABS cannot prevent slipping caused by sudden change of direction, e.g.
trying to turn the vehicle quickly or changing to drive on another lane
suddenly. Drive the vehicle carefully at a safe speed all the time, no matter
what the road and weather conditions are.
■ ABS cannot prevent the reduction in stability. Perform steering properly
during emergency brake. Big or sudden turning during driving may result in
the vehicle's collision with oncoming vehicles or rushing out of the road.
Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS)
System functions
■ The acoustic vehicle alerting system (AVAS) provides alerting sound to
signal the vehicle's presence to nearby vehicles and pedestrians when the
vehicle is running at a low speed.
■ When the vehicle moves forward:
● If the vehicle speed (V) is in the range of 0 km/h < V ≤ 20 km/h, the
alerting sound will become louder with the increase of vehicle speed;
● If the vehicle speed (V) is in the range of 20 km/h < V ≤ 30km/h, the
alerting sound will become softer with the increase of vehicle speed;
● If the vehicle speed (V) is V > 30 km/h, the alerting sound will stop
automatically.
■ When the vehicle reverses, it will produce continuous and uniform alerting
sound.
