●
If the powertrain makes any abnormal
sounds, stop the vehicle for inspection.
●
If the powertrain has severe coolant
and oil leakage, stop the vehicle for
inspection.
●
The powertrain needs break-in. It is
recommended that this be done within
the 󽗉rst 2,000 km in economic mode
by smoothly driving, instead of high-
speed driving. The following practices
can e󽗈ectively prolong vehicle service
life:
●
Avoid 󽗊ooring the accelerator pedal
when starting and driving the
vehicle.
●
Do not maintain a high or low speed
for too long.
●
Avoid speeding.
●
Do not use the vehicle to tow other
vehicles within the 󽗉rst 2,000 km of
mileage.
Trailer Towing
●
This vehicle is designed to carry
passengers. Do not overload it or use
it to tow other vehicles.
●
Towing other vehicles will have
an adverse impact on the
vehicle, including maneuverability,
performance, braking, endurance,
economic driving or power
consumption.
●
Driving safety and comfort totally
depend on equipment usage and good
driving habits.
●
BYD does not provide free warranty
for the damage or faults resulted from
towing for commercial purposes.
REMINDER
●
Do not tow a trailer whose
weight exceeds the hook capacity.
Otherwise, it may cause an
accident, resulting in serious
personal injury.
●
Be sure to increase the distance
between the vehicle and another
ahead of it when towing a trailer
as the braking distance may be
increased in towing. When driving
at 10 km/h, keep this distance
at least equal to the sum of the
length of the vehicle and the
trailer. Avoid emergency braking
to prevent vehicle folding and out
of control due to slippage.
●
Maintain the trailer's tire pressure
at the value speci󽗉ed by the trailer
manufacturer based on the gross
weight of the trailer.
●
If the vehicle is used to tow a
trailer, improve the maintenance
frequency due to vehicle load
increase.
Driving Safety
Precautions
No driving after drink
Drinking even a small amount of alcohol
reduces your ability to adapt to road
tra󽗋c conditions. Drinking more alcohol
further slows your responses. Therefore,
never drive while under the in󽗊uence.
Speed control
Speeding is a major cause of collisions
involving injury and death. In general,
faster speeds entail higher risk. Therefore,
please maintain a driving speed safe for
the tra󽗋c conditions on the road.
