Gear Shift Controls The electronic parking brake (EPB) is automatically applied and the EPB indicator lights up. ● The gear position of the gear shift controls is marked on the lever. ● "P": Park, press this button to park the vehicle and the parking indicator will light up. Press the brake pedal to start the vehicle, you may shift from Park to another gear. WARNING ● Transmission may be seriously damaged due to lack of lubrication if the vehicle is allowed to move for too long after the motor is turned off and "N" gear is engaged.
● When the motor is running and the vehicle is in Park or Drive gear, always stop the vehicle by stepping on the brake pedal, as there is still force transmitted from the actuator and the vehicle can travel slowly even in its idle condition. ● If you want to shift a gear while driving forward, do not step on the accelerator pedal to prevent accidents. CAUTION ● To prevent damage, press the "P" button only after the vehicle has completely stopped. ● Never shift to Reverse or press the "P" button while the vehicle is moving, in order to prevent accidents. ● "R": Reverse, used only when the vehicle has come to a complete stop. ● "N": Neutral, used for temporary stop.
Under all circumstances, always shift to Park before the driver gets out. ● Never coast downhill in Neutral or Park, even if the motor is not running. ● "D": Drive, shift to Drive gear to drive the vehicle normally. ● If the EPB indicator does not come on after shifting into Park, enable EPB in → ADAS → Safety Assist on the infotainment touchscreen and contact a BYD authorized dealer or service provider for inspection. ● If the shift is successful, the lever returns to its middle position automatically after it is released. ● Turn the ignition on in "OK" button before shifting into Drive. ● Shifting out of Park or into Drive requires pressing the brake pedal.
