Tip
●
If the parking brake fault warning indicator is turned on and ABS fault warning
indicator is still on, it is recommended to park the car in a safe place and contact
BYD Auto Authorized Service Station immediately.
■
ABS has a self-test function. In case of any fault, the anti-lock braking indicator on the
dashboard will be turned on. It is recommended to contact BYD Auto Authorized
Service Station for inspection as soon as possible.
■
If ABS (anti-lock brake system) indicator and the brake system indicator are turned on
at the same time and the parking brake is fully released, it indicates that the front and
rear wheel brake force distribution system is faulty. It is recommended to contact BYD
Auto Authorized Service Station for inspection as soon as possible.
■
If the brake pedal is not operated normally as following, some measures must be
taken immediately: the brake pedal is depressed deeper and the braking distance is
longer. The car should be switched to the low-speed gear, to lower the driving speed
and safely park it to the side of the road. The driving is very dangerous due to the long
parking distance. It is recommended to park the car immediately and contact BYD
Auto Authorized Service Station for inspection as soon as possible.

system fault is eliminated.

parking brake fault warning indicator are turned off), because the car stability control
system is not operated, the car will be under very instable status during emergency
turns and emergency avoidance of front obstacles.
