MAINTENANCE
07
• Replace the tire if bumps, or tread or
side damage are found.
• Replace the tire if there are cracks on
its side, or if its fabric or cord can be
seen.
• Replace tires withe excessive tread
wear.
• Tire treads are cast with wear marks.
When the tread is worn at this point,
tread thickness is less than 1.6 mm. The
adhesion of tires worn to this extent is
very small on wet roads.
• When the tread is worn to the point
where the wear mark is exposed, there is
serious performance loss, and the tires
should be replaced.
Maintenance
• In addition to proper inflation, proper
wheel alignment also helps reduce tread
wear.
• If uneven tire wear is found, go to a BYD
authorized dealer or service provider
and check the wheel alignment.
• The vehicle has been balanced in the
factory, but tires need to be re-balanced
after driving for a period of time.
• If there is some kind of continuous
vibration while driving at high speeds
(above 80 km/h), but not at low speeds,
go to a BYD authorized dealer or service
provider and check the tires.
• If a tire has been repaired, be sure to re-
balance it.
• When installing a new tire or replacing
a new wheel, always perform tire
balancing.
CAUTION
•Improper wheel balancers will get
stuck, become loose and fall off. While
driving, this will damage the car or
surrounding objects.
•Improper wheel balancers will
damage the aluminum rims of the
vehicle. Therefore, it is recommended
to use original wheel balancers.
Tire Rotation
• Tire rotation should be performed
regularly, as well as four-wheel
alignment, inspection and adjustment,
so as to make tire wear the same and
prolong the service life of tires.
• When buying replacement tires, some
tires are 'directional,' which can only be
shifted in one direction. If directional
tires are used, only the front and rear
wheels can be swapped in tire rotation,
as shown:
