218 7-3 DIY Maintenance
Tyre rotation

To prolong the service life of tyres and
achieve even wear of tyres, tyre
positions should be rotated once every
10,000 km. Rotate the tyres to the
positions shown in the right figure each
time.

The right figure indicates how to rotate
the tyres to specified positions.
WARNING

Do not use radial tyres, bias belted tyres or diagonal ply tyres on the vehicle in a
mixed way.

Do not install any tyres other than those with the size recommended by the
manufacturer.
Antiskid chain

Snow antiskid chains are for use only in emergency cases or when the vehicle is
driven through specific regions explicitly provided in law.

Snow antiskid chains should be installed on front wheels. Be more careful when
driving the vehicle equipped with snow antiskid chains on a road covered by ice or
snow. Some snow antiskid chains may damage tyres, wheels, suspensions and body
of the vehicle. Therefore, fine antiskid chains should be selected to provide a sufficient
and free space between tyres and other parts in wheel guards.

Carefully check and read the component assembly drawings and other instructions of
the antiskid chain manufacturer.

It is recommended that you consult the BYD authorised service provider from which
you bought the vehicle, before you buy antiskid chains and install them on the vehicle.

After antiskid chains are installed, the vehicle should be driven at a speed lower than
30 km/h on a road covered by ice or snow.

To minimize wear of tyres and antiskid chains, be sure to avoid installing antiskid
chains on the vehicle and driving it on a road not covered by ice or snow.
