Driving tips under different
conditions
z
When driving against the wind, you
should drive slowly so that the vehicle can
be controlled easily.
z
On trim-stones of road sides, you
should drive slowly and keep the right angle
as far as possible. Avoid driving on high and
sharp objects or other road obstacles;
otherwise, severe tire damages, e.g.
explosion, may be caused.
z
Reduce the speed when driving on
uneven roads; otherwise, the impact will
severely damage the tires and wheels.
z
The brakes will be wetted in cleaning
the vehicle or driving through deep water.
You can check whether they are wetted by
pressing the brake pedal lightly. Before the
check, you should first make sure it is safe.
If you cannot feel the normal brake force,
the brakes may have been wetted. To dry
them, you can, with the parking brake used,
drive carefully and lightly press the brake
pedal.
Friendly Tips
z
Before driving, make sure the
parking brake is thoroughly released
and the parking bake indicator is out.
z
When the engine is working, do
not leave the vehicle.
z
Do not place your foot on the
brake pedal in driving; it may lead to
over-heat and wear of the brake and
fuel waste.
z
When going down a long steep
slope, you should reduce the speed
and turn to a low-speed gear.
Frequent brake manipulation will
lead to over-heat and, possibly,
performance faults.
z
Care should be taken in
accelerating, high gear shift, low gear
shift or braking on slippery roads.
Sudden acceleration or engine brake
will lead to vehicle sliding or turning.
z
Do not drive if the brakes are
moistened. When the brakes are
moistened, longer brake distances are
needed, and, the vehicle may be
hauled to one side when the brakes
are used. Similarly, the parking
brake cannot park the vehicle firm
either.
Notice
Avoid accumulated water when
driving on wet roads. Too much
water introduced into the engine
compartment may cause damage to
the engine and electrical parts.
Driving tips in winter
Make sure the coolant has proper
anti-freezing protection effect.
Only coolants specified by BYD authorized
service stations can be applied. You should
select proper coolant according to the
environment temperature and add it into the
cooling system.
Application of unsuitable coolants will
damage the engine cooling system.
