BYD SEAL 2023 - Fire Prevention; Fire Prevention Instructions

WARNING
●
Driv
e 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 󽗉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 the vehicle on
the road where the depth of
accumulated water exceeds half
of the tires.
In󽗊uence of water ingress in high-
voltage components:
●
W
ater 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 signi󽗉cantly a󽗈ects 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.
Fire Prevention
To prevent vehicle 󽗉res in a timely and
e󽗈ective manner, pay attention to the
following during use of the vehicle:
●
No 󽗊ammable or explosive items are
allowed in the vehicle.
●
Temperatures may reach 60-70°C in a
vehicle exposed to direct sunlight in
summer. Therefore, 󽗊ammable and
explosive items, such as lighters,
cleaning agents and perfumes,
stored in the vehicle can cause a 󽗉re
or even explosion easily.
●
Make sure cigarettes are thoroughly
put out.
●
Smoking is harmful to your health
and may cause a 󽗉re. Cigarettes that
not thoroughly put out may cause a
󽗉re.
●
It is recommended to go to a BYD
authorized dealer or service provider
for regular vehicle checks.
●
Check vehicle wiring, connections,
wiring harnesses, insulation, and
