Running-in period
Drive gently and avoid high speed.
Your vehicle does not need an elaborate
running in, but you can follow a few simple
tips below for the first 2000 km to save fuel
and prolong the service life of your vehicle:
●
Avoid full throttle acceleration when
starting and driving.
●
Avoid running the engine in over speed
mode.
●
Avoid sudden brakes for the first 300km.
●
Do not drive for a long time at any single
speed, either fast or slow.
●
Do not tow a trailer during the
first 2000km.
Fuel
Selecting the proper fuel is essential for
satisfactory engine performance.
It’s also important to pay attention to the
emission control and the maintenance of
relevant apparatus.
Engine damage caused by use of improper
fuels is not covered under BYD F3 warranty.
Fuel type
Only the GB17930-93# unleaded gasoline
can be applied.
In order to avoid the mistakes made by gas
station, there is a smaller opening in the fuel
box. The special muzzle of unleaded gasoline
pump is
well-matched with it, while the bigger
standard muzzle is unusable.
