CAUTION
●
Within several seconds after the
vehicle is started, the EPB system
will conduct self-check upon
power-up. In this process, the EPB
will not respond to any function.
●
When the vehicle has been started
and the gear is in a driving gear like
"D" or "R", engage EPB manually, then
simply press the accelerator pedal
slowly to a certain degree. EPB is
released automatically and the
indicator turns o󽗈 with the message
"EPB Released" displayed.
Emergency Braking When Brake Pedal
Fails
●
If braking fails or is blocked, continue
to press p gear swtich or pull the EPB
switch* 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.
EPB System Indicator
●
When the vehicle is powered on, if the
EPB is engaged, the indicator
on
the instrument cluster will be steady
on.
●
When the vehicle is powered o󽗈, if the
EPB is engaged, the indicator
on
the instrument cluster turns on and
then turns o󽗈 in several seconds.
●
When the vehicle is powered on,
the EPB system starts self-check. The
indicator on the cluster turns on
and then turns o󽗈 in about 3 seconds.
If it does not, the EPB or braking
system may be faulty. In this case,
contact a BYD authorized dealer or
service provider immediately.
EPB Operating Sound
●
EPB motor noises can be heard while
the EPB is being engaged or released.
●
After the emergency braking function
is activated, if there is a burning smell
or unusual noises are heard, contact
a BYD authorized dealer or service
provider immediately.
WARNING
●
To prevent sliding down, do not
park the vehicle with the gearshift
mechanism instead of EPB before
leaving the vehicle. Be sure to use
the EPB got parking and ensure
that the transmission is shifted to
"P".
●
To prevent a serious accident,
never allow any passenger in the
vehicle to operate the EPB switch
when the vehicle is running.
●
When the EPB is pulled up
or released, depress the brake
pedal as far as possible to
prevent vehicle sliding and the
resulting gear shifting jamming
when the EPB cannot output
enough parking force.
●
For safety considerations, refrain
from using EPB for braking in
normal driving. It is preferred to
be used when the brake pedal
fails or is blocked.
●
As the EPB cannot go beyond the
physical limit of road adhesion,
activating the emergency brake
