●
When the ABS is working, the ESC
indicator will 󽗊ash and the brake
pedal will vibrate, which may produce
noise. This is normal because the ABS
is pulsating the brake quickly. In this
situation, you should press and hold
the brake pedal instead of pumping
the brakes. This allows ABS to function
as designed. While steering away from
danger, a 󽗉rm and steady pressure
should always be maintained on the
brake pedal for the ABS to work.
WARNING
●
ABS cannot work e󽗈ectively under
the following conditions:
●
Tires with inadequate grip are
used (for example, excessively
worn tires used on snow-
covered roads).
●
The vehicle skids when driving
at a high speed on slippery
roads.
●
ABS is not designed to reduce the
braking distance of the vehicle.
Always keep a safe distance from
the vehicle ahead when:
●
Driving on slippery, muddy,
sandy or snowy roads.
●
Driving on roads with multiple
potholes or on uneven roads.
●
Bumpy roads.
CAUTION
●
If the ABS fault warning light is
still on while the braking system
warning light is on, immediately
park the vehicle in a safe place.
It is recommended to contact a
BYD authorized dealer or service
provider.
●
In this case, if brakes are applied,
the ABS will not work and the
vehicle will become extremely
unstable.
●
ABS does not reduce the time
and distance required to stop the
vehicle. This device only helps you
control steering when braking.
Please always keep a safe distance
from other vehicles.
●
ABS does not prevent decrease in
stability. When applying the brake
in an emergency, the steering
should be moderate. A large or
sharp turn during the driving can
cause the vehicle to swerve into
oncoming tra󽗋c or run o󽗈 the
road.
●
ABS cannot prevent skidding
caused by sudden direction
change, such as trying to make
a sharp turn or change lanes
suddenly. Always drive carefully at
a safe speed, regardless of road
and weather conditions.
●
When driving on wet or soft
or uneven roads (such as
waterlogged concrete roads,
waterlogged epoxy painted roads,
sandy roads, snowy roads),
vehicles equipped with ABS may
require longer braking distances
than vehicles without ABS. In such
cases, reduce the vehicle speed
and keep a greater distance from
other vehicles.
