Overview

New energy vehicles are especially quiet
when driving at low speeds. You may not be
used to it, and other nearby vehicle drivers might
not be either.
Therefore, the vehicle is equipped with a
low-speed warning sound function. When driving
at low speeds, this function emits a warning
sound.
It alerts pedestrians and surrounding
vehicles, serving as a precaution. When new
energy vehicles are driving at high speeds, you
may hear some unfamiliar noises, such as wind
noise, tire noise, etc. This is because the motor is
silent, allowing other noises to be heard clearly.
For models equipped with a brake vacuum
pump, the brake vacuum pump will automatically
operate and produce a "buzzing" sound each
time the vehicle is powered on or the brake pedal
is pressed.This is a normal phenomenon and will
quickly disappear.
Silence
WARNING
!
Because new energy vehicles are very quiet,
when you leave the car, please make sure to
check and conrm that the parking brake is
engaged. Otherwise, it may cause a serious
accident or even personal injury.
When driving, if you release the accelerator
pedal or lightly press the brake pedal, there may
be a noticeable braking effect, which is normal.
This is because the drive motor participates
in braking (regenerative braking) and acts as
a generator to recover electrical energy for the
power battery, achieving energy recovery.
During the first few kilometers of driving
with a full battery, regenerative braking will be
reduced.
At this time, you might feel uncomfortable,
so always use the brake pedal for braking when
needed, rather than relying on motor braking.
Regenerative Braking and Energy Recovery
Additionally, like traditional fuel vehicles,
your vehicle has a 12V battery.
It also powers the vehicle's low-voltage
electrical devices, such as lights, wipers, audio-
visual equipment, and braking assistan ce.
The high-voltage power battery may
automatically charge the 12V battery at regular
intervals.
12V Battery
WARNING
!
When the high-voltage power battery is
charging the 12V battery, opening the car
door will automatically stop charging the 12V
battery. However, there is a risk of electric
shock in the following cases:
If the front engine compartment cover is not
properly closed, opening the hood directly
may pose a risk of electric shock.
If the front engine compartment cover is
opened through unofcial means, there may
be a risk of electric shock.
