Important Safety Tips Important Safety Tips
• ABS does not reduce the time and
distance required to brake. It only helps
control steering when braking. Always
keep a safe distance from other vehicles.
• ABS cannot prevent skidding caused by
sudden changes of direction, such as
trying to turn a corner or change lanes
suddenly. Drive carefully and at a safe
speed at all times, regardless of road and
weather conditions.
• ABS also does not prevent loss of
stability. A large or sharp turn while in
motion can cause the vehicle to swerve
into oncoming traffic or run off the road.
• Vehicles equipped with ABS may require
longer brake distances when driving on
soft or uneven surfaces, such as gravel
or snow, than vehicles without ABS. In
such cases, slow down and keep a long
distance from other vehicles.
WARNING
•
ABS cannot work effectively under the
following conditions:
»
Insufficient tire grip;
» The vehicle skids when driving at
high speed on slippery roads.
CAUTION
•If the ABS warning light is still on
while the brake system warning light
turns on stop the vehicle in a safe
place immediately and contact a BYD
authorized dealer or service provider.

CAUTION
•ABS also does not prevent loss of
stability. In emergency braking, steer
moderately. A large or sharp turn
while in motion can cause the vehicle
to swerve into oncoming traffic or run
off the road.
Acoustic Vehicle Alerting
System (AVAS)
AVAS refers to the broadcast to passengers
of approaching vehicles when the vehicle is
traveling at low speed.
• When driving forward:
• The broadcast volume increases
with increment of velocity that is at
0 km/h < V ≤ 20 km/h.
• The broadcast volume decreases
with increment of velocity that is at
20 km/h < V ≤ 30 km/h.
• The broadcast sound stops
automatically when V is greater than
30 km/h.
• When driving in reverse, the vehicle
makes a continuous and balanced
reminding sound.
• AVAS has two audio modes: standard
and dynamic, which give different AVAS
sounds and can be switched as desired.
