WARNING
In the event of an emergency
●
or accident, be aware of the
following warnings:
To avoid personal injury, do not
●
touch the power battery directly.
Please contact a BYD authorized
●
dealer or service provider as
soon as possible.
If the high-voltage battery is
●
damaged and leaking fluid,
avoid any contact with the fluid.
If it comes into contact with
skin or eyes, rinse immediately
with plenty of water, and seek
immediate medical attention.
If the vehicle catches fire,
●
use dedicated fire extinguishers
instead of water-based fire
extinguishers.
CAUTION
To ensure safety of the high-
●
voltage battery, stop the vehicle
away from flammable and
explosive materials, ignition
sources and various hazardous
chemicals.
The available battery capacity will
●
decrease as the vehicle is used
over time.
Prolonged exposure to heat
●
sources and direct sunlight
will reduce high-voltage battery
service life.
When the vehicle is not to
●
be operated for an extended
period (over 7 days), it is
recommended that the battery
SOC should be kept at 40%-60%
to prolong its service life. When
the vehicle is not to be operated
for over 3 months, the power
CAUTION
battery must be fully charged
and then discharged to 40%-60%
every 3 months. Otherwise, over-
discharge may result, leading to
battery performance degradation
or even damage. Any vehicle fault
or damage so caused will not be
covered by the quality warranty.
As the power battery is arranged
●
at the bottom of the vehicle,
careful driving is recommended
in case of bumpy roads. If
there is a collision with the
high-voltage battery, contact
a BYD authorized dealer or
service provider immediately for
maintenance.
No one is allowed to enter the
●
vehicle when the battery pack
needs to be repaired.
High-Voltage Battery Recycling
How to scrap an NEV:
1. Take the vehicle to the BYD recycling
service provider that will assess the
residual value of the high-voltage
battery.
2. Take the assessed vehicle to the
recycling organization to disassemble
the high-voltage battery.
3. Take the battery to the recycling
service provider which will buy back
the battery.
WARNING
New energy car owners have
●
the responsibility and obligation
to hand over waste high-voltage
batteries to the recycling service
outlet. Anyone who hands over a
used high-voltage battery to any
