BYD SEAL EV - Charging Method

•For faster low-temperature DC
charging, it is recommended to
charge the vehicle with low SOC,
because when the vehicle has high
SOC and the temperature is low, the
charging current is small due to low
battery temperatures.
•To improve your experience, it is
recommended that you charge the
vehicle immediately after using it, as
the battery is relatively hot and has
better charging performance.
•
A/C turned on during low temperature
charging can a󽗈ect the performance
of battery temperature control system
and charging performance.
• When the battery temperature control
system is working during charging,
the charging power displayed on the
instrument cluster or infotainment
system may 󽗊uctuate temporarily.
•
Before the charging is complete, for
longer battery life, battery equalization
is activated and thus the charging time
may be longer.
• The use of A/C may worsen
battery temperature control system
performance in DC charging at
high temperatures, resulting in lower
charging performance and longer
charging time. To ensure charging
e󽗋ciency, it is recommended to keep
the A/C o󽗈 during charging.
• When the heating or cooling function is
enabled during charging, it is normal
that both charging time and power
consumption increase slightly.
• During charging, battery cooling
may start, and the compressor, fan
and other components work when
necessary. It is normal that there will
be some noise under the hood.
• During charging, the estimated
remaining time to full charge is
displayed on the instrument cluster
or infotainment system. It is normal
that the remaining time to full charge
may vary slightly depending on the
temperatures, SOC, and charging
facilities. Before charging is completed,
"Calculating..." is displayed on the
instrument cluster.
• If the charge port door is frozen due to
weather or other reasons, do not force
it open.
• If the vehicle will not be used for longer
periods of time afterwards, make sure
to fully charge its high-voltage battery
before use. In case of idle periods, it
is recommended to charge the battery
every three months in order to prolong
its service life.
REMINDER
• Do not open the charge port door
forcibly when it is locked.
• Do not forcibly insert the
connector with the electric lock
engaged.
• When the port cap is fully open,
do not close the charge port door.
• When the vehicle is charged
with an external power supply,
it is normal that the cooling fan
and A/C compressor may operate
automatically in order for the
high-voltage battery to heat up or
cool down.
Charging Method
The pure electric vehicle is driven
by electric energy supplied from high-
voltage battery. To prevent insu󽗋cient
high-voltage battery a󽗈ecting the vehicle
driving experience, it is very important to
charge the vehicle in time and estimate
the power demand before driving.
Vehicle Charging Method:
1. Using Mode 2 Charging Cable*
2. Using AC Charging Piles*
3. Using DC Charging Piles*
