the vehicle indoors.
• Charge the vehicle on time.
• Thoroughly clean and dry the body
surface.
• Clean the interior of the vehicle to
ensure that carpets and mats are
completely dry.
• Release the parking brake and set the
gearshift lever in parking gear.
• Open one window slightly (if the
vehicle is stored indoors).

lubricant to all door seals and body

door seals meet.
• Cover the body with a breathable
covering made of a "porous material"
such as cotton. Non-porous materials,
such as plastic sheeting, can build up
moisture and damage the paint.

(preferably monthly). If the vehicle
has been parked for a year or more,
go to a BYD authorized dealer or
service provider for comprehensive
maintenance.
