Electric-hydraulic power steering
system
An electric-hydraulic power steering system is
adopted in this vehicle model.
When the power switch is at ON position,
EHPSwill be activated.
The steering system warning lamp is as
shown in the illustration below:
You may feel the steering wheel is hard to
operate while the warning lamp of electrical
power steering system doesn't come on
under the following conditions, but this is not
a malfunction.
Operate or turn the steering wheel
frequently for a long time
The motor may be overheating when
operating the steering wheel for an extended
period of time. To protect the mechanical
units in the motor, the overheat protection
function may be activated in the ECU, so the
amount of power assistance will be reduced
or cancelled. At this time, please stop turning
the steering wheel or stop the vehicle and put
the power switch to ACC or OFF position. The
steering system will cool down and restore
power assistance in 10 minutes.
In addition, the steering wheel is also hard to
turn when the battery lacks power.
When the battery lacks power
The minimum voltage for EPS ECU is 10 V.
When the battery lacks power and deviates
from the operating voltage range for ECU,
there will be no power assistance. At this
point, check the condition of battery. And then
charge the battery or replace a new one if
necessary.

system
When any of the situations below occur, there
may be a malfunction with the steering
system indicated by the warning lamp.
When the power switch is at ON position, this
lamp will remain on or not come on.
1. This lamp will remain on when driving.
In the above cases, please have the vehicle
repaired by the authorized BYD service
station as soon as possible. You have to hold
the steering wheel tightly and operate it with
more force under such conditions.
Tips
Be sure that the brake pedal is depressed
before starting, and then move the shift
handle to start and drive. It is preferred to
move the shift handle to the desired
position after the motor has run for a few
seconds, and release the parking brake,
then release the brake pedal slowly to start
the vehicle when it creeps forward.
Keep the brake pedal depressed firmly and
move your foot away from the accelerator
pedal, when stopping in D, N or R position.
Do remember to switch gear to park
position whenever leaving the vehicle.
Please keep a proper driving speed in order
to comply with the local regulations.
