BYD SEAL 2023 - Checks; Maintenance

●
It is normal tha
t tire pressure reading
measured while tires are hot (after
travel of several kilometers) is 30-40
kPa (0.3-0.4 bar) higher than when tires
are cold. In that case, do not de󽗊ate
tires in order to achieve the speci󽗉ed
cold tire pressure reading; otherwise,
the tire pressure will be insu󽗋cient.
REMINDER
●
The recommended tire pressure
label (stuck on the driver's
side door frame) indicates the
recommended cold tire pressure.
●
Tubeless tires have a self-
sealing function when they are
punctured. However, as the leak
is usually very slow, as soon as
the tire begins to depressurize,
carefully look for the leak
location.
Checks
●
Whene
ver checking tire in󽗊ation,
check tires for damage, foreign body
piercing and wear.
●
Replace the tire if bumps, or tread
or side damage are found. Tires
should be replaced if any of the case
happens.
●
Replace the tire if there are cracks on
its side, or if its fabric or cord can be
seen.
●
Replace tires with excessive tread
wear.
●
Tir
e treads are cast with wear bars.
When the tread is even with the wear
bar, its thickness is less than 1.6 mm.
The adhesion of tires worn to this
extent is very small on wet roads.
●
Tyres with exposed wear bars are
experiencing serious performance loss
and therefore must be replaced.
Maintenance
●
In addition to proper in󽗊ation, proper
wheel alignment also helps reduce
tread wear.
●
If uneven tire wear is found, go
to a BYD authorized dealer or
service provider and check the wheel
alignment.
●
The vehicle has been balanced in
the factory, but tires need to be re-
balanced after driving for a period of
time.
●
If there is some kind of continuous
vibration while driving at high speeds
(above 80 km/h), but not at low
speeds, go to a BYD authorized dealer
or service provider and check the tires.
●
If a tire has been repaired, be sure to
re-balance it.
●
When installing a new tire or replacing
a new wheel, always perform tire
balancing.
