REMINDER
●
The steering system features an
electric motor to reduce the force
required to turn the steering
wheel.
●
When turning the steering wheel,
a hum may be heard from the
running motor. This does not
indicate that the motor is faulty.
●
Do not turn the steering wheel
to its limit position for more
than 󽗉ve seconds, otherwise the
temperature protection will be
activated and the steering system
will be damaged or steering will
become heavy.
●
If you have turned the steering wheel
frequently with the vehicle staying put
for a long time, the steering wheel may
become di󽗋cult to turn even if the
warning light does not turn on. This is
not a fault.
●
To prevent steering system
overheating, the power assist e󽗈ect
will be reduced if the steering wheel
has been frequently turned with the
vehicle staying put for a long time. As
a result, the steering wheel become
di󽗋cult to turn. In this case, reduce
steering frequency or power o󽗈 the
vehicle, and the system will recover
within 10 minutes.
●
In cases where low-voltage battery has
low SOC.
●
When the low-voltage battery voltage
drops below the EPS working
threshold of 9V, EPS will stop
providing steering power. The low-
voltage battery should therefore be
inspected and charged or swapped if
necessary.
●
A dead motor may prevent the EPS
system from working, so never turn o󽗈
the motor during driving. If the motor
dies while driving, hold on to the
steering wheel, pull over immediately,
and contact a BYD authorized dealer or
service provider.
WARNING
●
If the steering system warning
light goes on, immediately park
the vehicle safely, and contact a
BYD authorized dealer or service
provider.
Low-voltage power system fault
warning light
●
It lights up when the DC system or low-
voltage battery fails.
●
Charging and discharging stop when
this warning light turns on.
●
When this warning light lights up and
remain steady on while driving, the
vehicle speed will be limited.
●
This light is used to warn about the
operating state of the DC module and
the low-voltage battery module when
the vehicle is not being charged or
discharged.
●
If this warning light turns on while
driving, it indicates that there is a
problem with the DC system or the
low-voltage battery.
Powertrain fault warning light
●
If the powertrain fails, this warning
light turns on.
●
If any of the following cases occurs, it
means there is a fault in components
monitored by the warning light system.
In that case, contact a BYD authorized
dealer or service provider for vehicle
inspection as soon as possible.
●
This warning light is steady on when
the ignition is switched on.
