CAUTION
●
This function is designed to
improve vehicle safety. Excessive
reliance on or frequent use of the
function is not recommended. For
safety reasons, make sure that the
vehicle is shifted into Park or the
EPB is engaged before getting off.
Automatic EPB Release upon Vehicle
Start
Releasing by shifting gear
●
With the vehicle parked, start the
vehicle, press and hold the brake
pedal, and shift from Park or Neutral
into a driving gear such as Drive or
Reverse. EPB is released automatically,
the indicator goes off, and the "EPB
released" message is displayed.
CAUTION
●
Be sure to always press and hold
the brake pedal when shifting
gears. Release the pedal only after
the intended gear is displayed on
the instrument cluster.
●
Within several seconds after the
vehicle is started, the EPB system
performs a power-on self-test
(POST). In this process, the EPB
system does not respond to any
operations.
Releasing by pressing the accelerator
pedal
●
When the vehicle has been started
and in Drive or Reverse, engage EPB
by enabling Electronic Parking Brake
on the infotainment system, then
press the accelerator pedal slowly
to a certain degree. EPB is released
automatically and
turns off with
the message "EPB released" displayed.
EPB Release Failure
●
If EPB release fails, enable the EPB
trailer mode in the infotainment
touchscreen → → Service →
Overhaul.
●
If EPB can be released, drive
the vehicle to the nearest BYD
authorized dealer or service provider
for inspection as soon as possible.
●
If it cannot be released, contact a BYD
authorized dealer or service provider.
Emergency Braking When Brake Pedal
Fails
●
If braking fails or is blocked, continue
to press the "P" button for over two
seconds for emergency braking.
CAUTION
●
For safety considerations, refrain
from using the EPB for braking
in normal driving. If the brake
pedal fails or is blocked, use the
emergency braking function while
you can always keep the vehicle
under control and drive normally.
●
As the EPB cannot go beyond the
physical limit of road adhesion,
activating the emergency brake
function may result in vehicle
drift, sideslip, or deflection when
the vehicle passes through bends
or dangerous/heavy-traffic road
sections, or when the vehicle
is driven under severe weather
conditions. Be careful to avoid any
accident.
EPB Trailer Mode
The EPB trailer mode is mainly set for the
