Charging/Discharging ● Do not use charging equipment that does not meet safety standards or has potential safety hazards. Do not allow children to use the charging equipment and keep animals away from the vehicle while charging. ● Charging equipment uses high-voltage current. Minors are prohibited to charge the vehicle or touch the charging equipment. Keep them away from the vehicle during charging. ● Ensure that your hands are properly dry before charging. ● Charging may affect medical or implanted electronic devices.
Consult the device manufacturer before charging. ● If anything abnormal is found in the vehicle or the charging equipment during charging, stop charging immediately and contact a BYD authorized dealer or service provider. ● Charge the vehicle in a safe environment, and avoid charging in damp areas, or areas with fire or heat sources. ● Always observe the following charging precautions to prevent damage to the vehicle: ● Protect the charging equipment against water contact on rainy days. ● Check Before Charging ● Do not shake the charging connector, otherwise the vehicle charge port may be damaged.
● Ensure that the power supply equipment, the charging connector, the charge port, and the charging connection device are free of defects, such as cable wear, rusted ports, cracked casings, or foreign objects in the ports. ● Do not charge the vehicle in a thunderstorm to prevent risk of lightning strikes. ● Do not open the hood for maintenance while charging. ● Do not charge the vehicle when the plug of the charging connector or port, the socket, or metal terminals are loose or damaged by rust or corrosion. ● After charging, do not disconnect the charging equipment with wet hands or while standing on any wet surface.
● Before driving, ensure that the charging equipment is disconnected from the charge port. ● When the charging connector, port, power plug, or socket is visibly stained or damp, wipe them with a dry and clean cloth to ensure the connection is dry and clean. Charging Precautions ● When the State of Charge (SOC) is low, the instrument cluster turns red, indicating that the high-voltage battery is about to be exhausted. Please charge it immediately, otherwise it will reduce the high-voltage battery ● Use a standard-compliant charging equipment. ● To avoid charging failure or fire, do not modify, disassemble, or repair 80
