● It is recommended to fully charge the vehicle at a regular basis (at least once a week), and fully charge it from low battery (SOC six months. CAUTION ● To ensure safety of the high- voltage battery, stop the vehicle away from flammable and explosive materials, ignition sources and various hazardous chemicals. ● Under extreme working conditions (such as frequent sudden acceleration/ deceleration) that cause battery overheating, if the temperature of high-voltage battery is excessively high, it is normal for discharging capability to decrease gradually. If the battery temperature keeps rising, the fault warning light lights up on the instrument cluster.
In that case, it is recommended to contact a BYD authorized dealer or service provider. ● The available battery capacity decreases as the vehicle is used over time. ● Prolonged exposure to heat sources and direct sunlight will reduce high-voltage battery service life. ● When the vehicle is not to be operated for an extended period (over seven days), it is recommended that the battery SOC should be kept at 40%-60% to prolong its service life. When the vehicle is not to be operated for over three months, the high- voltage battery must be fully charged and then discharged to 40%-60% every three months. Otherwise, over-discharge may lead to battery performance degradation or even damage.
Any vehicle fault or damage so caused will not be warranted. ● When the battery SOC increases or decreases abnormally, it is recommended to contact a BYD authorized dealer or service provider for inspection. WARNING ● In the event of an emergency or accident, be aware of the following warnings: ● To avoid personal injury, do not touch the power battery directly. ● Please contact a BYD authorized dealer or service provider as soon as possible. ● As the high-voltage battery is arranged at the bottom of the vehicle, careful driving is recommended in case of bumpy roads.
If there is a collision with the high-voltage battery, contact a BYD authorized dealer or service provider immediately for maintenance. ● If the high-voltage battery is damaged and leaking fluid, avoid any contact with the fluid. If it comes into contact with skin or eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water, and seek immediate medical attention. ● If the vehicle catches fire, use dedicated fire extinguishers instead of water-based fire extinguishers. ● No one is allowed to enter the vehicle when the battery pack needs to be repaired. 96
