Automatic release of EPB at startup
■ When the vehicle is under parking status, start the vehicle, depress and hold the brake
pedal, and shift the gearshift knob from “P” or “N” to “D” or “R”. In such case, the EPB is
released automatically, the indicator lamp turns off, and the “Electronic parking
released” is displayed.
Note
● Please operate as per the correct gearshift operations. During the whole gearshift
process, it’s necessary to always depress and hold the brake pedal. Release the
brake pedal until the target gear is displayed on the instrument.
● Within several seconds after the start of vehicle, the EPB system is under the
power-on self-examination so that it will not respond to all functions.
■ With the vehicle started and the gearshift knob in “D” or “R”, after the EPB is manually
pulled up, depressing the accelerator pedal slowly to a certain depth can automatically
release the EPB. The indicator lamp
turns off and the “Electronic parking released”
is displayed.
Invalid release function
If the EPB switch is non-operational, please press and hold the EPB switch for more than
10~12s. If the electronic parking can be released, please drive the vehicle to the nearest
service shop to check the brake pedal switch signal and related parts and circuits. If it still
can’t be released, it’s recommended to immediately contact a BYD Auto Authorized Service
Station.
Emergency braking function in event of brake pedal failure
When the ESP system works normally during the traveling of vehicle, if the brake is
obstructed or failed, the Controller Deceleration Parking (CDP) can be used. If only the EPB
switch is pulled up, the braking deceleration is 0.4g. If the EPB switch is pulled up and at the
same time the brake pedal is depressed, the braking deceleration is 0.8g. Avoid using the
EPB switch for forced braking whenever possible. Use the emergency braking function only
in event of emergencies such as failed service brake or obstructed brake pedal.
