The vehicle system cannot be switched
●
into the OK status once the emergency
shutdown system is activated. In that
case, it is recommended to contact
a BYD authorised dealer or service
provider for help. Even if the ignition
switch is set to the OK position, the
system will be turned off immediately.
Contact a BYD authorised dealer or
service provider as soon as possible.
Vehicle Fire Rescue
In case of fire, continue to operate the
vehicle as follows according to the actual
situation:
1. Switch the ignition off, and leave the
vehicle.
2. On the precondition that personal
safety is ensured, if the fire is small
and slow, use a dry powder fire
extinguisher to put out the fire, and
call for help immediately.
3. If the fire is large and growing quickly,
stay away from the vehicle and wait for
rescue.
CAUTION
Wear insulated gloves during
●
vehicle disassembly. Use fire
extinguishers of designated
type. Water or incorrect fire
extinguishers may cause electric
shock.
In the event of other special
●
conditions that cause flying
projectiles (such as interior trims
and glass), stay away from the
vehicle and promptly ask a
BYD authorised dealer or service
provider to come to the site for
handling.
Battery Leakage Rescue
After a collision, if there is battery
leakage, an acrid smell inside the vehicle,
visible acid flow outside the vehicle, or
any smoke with the battery pack:
1. Switch the ignition off and disconnect
the low-voltage battery under the left
rear seat if conditions permit.
2. It is recommended to call immediately
a BYD authorised dealer or service
provider for rescue.
If a Collision Occurs
In case of collision, operate the vehicle as
follows according to the actual situation:
1. Switch the ignition off, and disconnect
the low-voltage battery if conditions
permit.
2. Call immediately a BYD authorised
dealer or service provider for rescue.
3. Carry out a simple inspection, if
conditions permit: Check whether any
edge of the high-voltage battery tray
is cracked and whether any obvious
liquid flows out.
If skin comes in contact with leaked
●
fluid, wash it immediately with
plenty of water for 10-15 minutes.
If there is still any discomfort,
apply 2.5% calcium gluconate
ointment, or soak in 2% to 2.5%
calcium gluconate solution. If the
condition does not get better or
discomfort persists, seek medical
help immediately.
WARNING
Do not touch any spilled liquid,
●
and stay away from a leaking
vehicle or high-voltage battery.
