Driving Assistance Functions
ACC System*
- The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system uses a radar to detect the relative distance and speed of the vehicle ahead, so as to control vehicle speed accordingly. The system switches between regular cruise control and ACC depending on whether there is a vehicle ahead.
- Cruise speed and time interval from the vehicle ahead can be set through the cruise keys. Cruise control speed can be set within a 30 to 150 km/h (20 to 95be set from the vehicle ahead for the vehicle to cruise at speeds between 0 and 150 km/h (0~95 mph). mph) range, or a fixed distance can
Status description
- ACC off: ACC function disabled.
- ACC stand-by: the system is in stand-by by default when the vehicle is started, and can be manually activated. If the vehicle does not meet the activation conditions, the vehicle must be checked until such conditions are met. The "
" icon will light up in the cluster after activation. - ACC activated: the system is operational. It maintains the set speed or automatically adjusts the distance from the vehicle ahead. At this time, the "
" icon will light up on the cluster. - Over speed: if the accelerator pedal is pressed with ACC activated, ACC enters over speed mode until the accelerator is released.
- ACC failure: there has been a failure in the system. No operation is carried out, and the "
" fault indicator lights up.
ACC System Activation Conditions
- EPB is released.
- Vehicle is in "D" gear.

ACC exit
Pressing the brake pedal will make the ACC system go on stand-by. Press the key (1) again to deactivate the ACC function. A safe vehicle distance must be selected.
Set vehicle distance
- The driver shall select a safe vehicle distance.
- This system adjusts vehicle speed to keep a suitable distance from the vehicle ahead on the same lane. Keys (3) and (4) can be pressed to adjust the four vehicle distance values. For each value, vehicle distance is in direct proportion to vehicle speed. The faster the speed, the longer the distance.
Increase/decrease speed with ACC activated
- When ACC is activated, the accelerator may be pressed so the set target cruise speed is reached. The system will enter over speed mode. If the vehicle is already going at the target cruise speed and the accelerator is pressed, the vehicle will return to target speed after the accelerator is released. If the lever (2) is pulled down while accelerating, the current speed will be reset as the target cruise speed. If the speed goes above 150for over 15 minutes, the system will go on stand-by and the ACC will need to be reactivated. km/h, or the accelerator is pressed
- When ACC is active and the break pedal is pressed, ACC will go on stand-by automatically. After the brake is released, ACC needs to be reactivated.
Follow-to-stop/start
- Controlled by ACC, the vehicle can stop when the vehicle ahead stops in normal driving conditions. If the vehicle stops for less than 3 seconds, it can follow the vehicle ahead to start automatically.
- If the vehicle stops for less than 3 minutes, the driver needs to reactivate ACC by pressing the accelerator pedal or using the ACC Cruise button.
- If the vehicle stops for more than 3 minutes, the ACC system will enter standby, with EPB pulled up.
Precautions
- ACC is a comfort system rather than a safety system, obstacle detector or collision warning system. Drivers are fully responsible for keeping control of the vehicle at all times.
- ACC is an ancillary system and does not replace the driver. Drivers are responsible for abiding by traffic rules and keeping vehicle control.
- Traffic flow and weather conditions - such as rain and fog - must be heeded when setting vehicle distance. After the ACC system is properly set, drivers must be able to decelerate until the vehicle stops at any time.
- The ACC system can be activated when driving on expressways and roads in good conditions rather than on complex urban or meandering roads.
- When the ACC system is active and the accelerator or brake pedal is pressed, vehicle control is transferred to the driver, and the ACC system vehicle distance control function will be deactivated.
- ACC can only respond to stationary or slow-moving objects, such as vehicles, the end of traffic, toll booths, bicycles or pedestrians, in very specific conditions.
- For safety reasons, ACC cannot be activated if ESC is not enabled.
- The ACC system cannot identify pedestrians or oncoming vehicles.
- The ACC system can only achieve limited braking instead of emergency braking.
- If the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly (able to respond, or its response may be slow. In such case, there will be no take over request.emergency stop), the ACC may not be
- In some cases, such as when the vehicle ahead is going too slow or too fast, or when the distance is too short, there is no adequate time for the system to decrease the relative speed. In this case, response has to come from the driver. The system does not give any sound or visual warning.
- When reaching or leaving a bend, target selection may be delayed or disturbed. In this case, the vehicle may not brake as expected or may brake late.
- On roads with sharp bends, such as winding roads, the vehicle ahead may be out of ACC sensor detection, which may cause ACC to accelerate.
- A short distance from a vehicle in an adjacent lane may trigger ACC to brake.
- If another vehicle comes behind the target vehicle within ACC detection range, it will immediately be identified as the new target, and prompt a response accordingly, and lead to sudden or late braking.
- In some environments, detection may be affected or delayed. If the target's radar reflection area is too small (to properly detect distance, resulting in late or no response. In such case, vehicle speed must be controlled by the driver. Detection may also be affected or delayed by noise or electromagnetic interference.motorcycle, etc...), the system may fail
- If the target vehicle contact ratio is too small, ACC will not be able to target it, so the driver must keep vehicle control.
- When the vehicle stops as it follows a vehicle ahead, the system will not recognize the end of the vehicle ahead but the lower end of the target (e.g. the axle of a truck with a high chassis or a vehicle bumper) in rare cases, and cannot guarantee proper stopping distance, so that the driver must stay alert and be ready to brake.
- If ACC is activated with the vehicle stationary, the system identifies any stationary obstacle ahead and keeps the vehicle still to ensure a safe startup and prevent collision. This function does not cover all obstacles, so drivers mus be alert.
- The radar sensor may be affected by vibration or collision. In this case, contact a BYD authorized dealer or service provider.
- The radar is installed at the front area of the vehicle. If its detection area is blocked, specially by snow, its function may be affected, and the system will exit. The system notifies the exit through HMI. System function recovers after blockage is removed and the vehicle is restarted or runs for a while.
- The radar may have a transient function failure from limited detection if the vehicle runs under special conditions, such as circular ramps or tunnels. The function may be recovered by restarting the vehicle or driving under normal conditions for a while.
- Changing the vehicle structure, such as lowering the chassis or changing the front license mounting plate, may affect the ACC system.
- Metal objects like rail or metal plates used in road construction may interfere with the medium range radar so that it cannot work under normal conditions.
- Do not use the ACC system when visibility is poor, or when driving on slopes, winding roads, or wet roads (covered in ice/snow or flooded).
- In the following cases, go to a BYD authorized dealer or service provider for a medium range radar professional calibration:
- Front medium range radar or bumper removal.
- After four-wheel alignment is carried out.
- Collision.
- The ACC system performance declines or a system error notification is displayed on the cluster.
Predictive Emergency Braking System
The predictive emergency braking system has two features: Predictive Collision Warning (PCW) and Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB). This system uses radar and multifunctional video controller to detect with vehicles ahead or pedestrians. When a risk of collision is detected, the system will give a sound alarm and light warning to alert the driver, and improve the potential braking pressure for better response timing. If the system detects increased risk of collision, it will automatically apply braking pressure to assist in collision avoidance or reduce impact.
To enable or disable the PCW function, tap on
→ DiPilot → Active Safety. When the vehicle is started, the system is switched on by default.
PCW
- Safety distance warning
- If the vehicle is too close to the vehicle ahead at speeds above 65 km/h for too long, the system will give a safety distance warning, and the indicator
on the cluster will light up.
- Pre-warning
- If the system identifies collision risk at speeds between 30 and 150 km/h, there will be a sound alarm and the
indicator will light up on the cluster.
- Emergency warning
- If the driver fails to respond to the pre-warning, the system will give an emergency alert. The
indicator will flash and there will be a short braking warning.
AEB
- If the driver fails to respond to the emergency warning and the risk level increases, the system will enable the AEB function. The system will engage braking force as much as possible to avoid collision or reduce crash impact.
- If the driver applies insufficient braking force in an emergency, the braking system will provide additional braking force to reach the optimal level required to avoid collision or reduce crash impact.
System Limitations
- In some environments, detection may be affected or delayed. If the target's radar reflection area is too small (e.g. bicycle), the system may not be able to establish its distance, which results in either late response or no response.
- In the following cases, the predictive emergency braking system may be affected or give no response:
- In rainy, snowy or foggy days, large water splashes, or exposure to direct sunlight or glaring lights.
- The sensor is dirty, hazy, damaged or blocked.
- The radar fails under interference from other radar sources, such as strong radar reflection in multi-layered parking areas.
- In complex traffic, the system may not be able to properly respond to the following circumstances:
- Pedestrians or vehicles moving too quickly within the sensor's detection range.
- Pedestrians obscured by other objects.
- Pedestrian outlines are indistinguishable from the background.
- Pedestrian detection fails due to special clothing or other objects.
- Bends with small turning radius.
Precautions
- The predictive emergency braking system cannot ensure zero collision. In complex traffic, the system cannot always clearly identify all the vehicles or pedestrians. It may trigger unnecessary warning or braking action for well covers, iron plates or road signs.
- Make sure to observe surrounding traffic conditions, AEB is not a substitute for normal braking operations.
- Do not overly rely on the predictive emergency braking system as this may result in serious accidents. The system is only an auxiliary safety tool. Drivers must always keep a safe distance from the vehicle ahead, control speed, and be ready to brake or steer away when necessary.
- The AEB system is activated when speed reaches 4 km/h, but it can only reduce vehicle speed when it does not exceed 45required, because the system may not be triggered correctly. km/h. Careful driving is always
- When the ESC function is disabled or the trouble light is on, the AEB system cannot work normally.
- If the PCW function gives an alarm, the driver must brake based on traffic conditions to decrease vehicle speed or steer away from obstacles.
- If the vehicle travels too close to the vehicle ahead for too long, a safety distance warning will be given. If the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly there is a high risk of collision.
- The system will not trigger AEB when the driver is aware of an emergency warning, but turns the steering wheel, accelerates or brakes.
- The radar sensor may have a transient function failure from limited detection if the vehicle runs under special conditions, such as circular ramps or tunnels. The function may be recovered by restarting the vehicle or driving under normal conditions for a while.
- Sometimes the sensor or multi-functional video controller detect dirt or foreign matter on its surface. In this case, a message will be displayed on the instrument cluster and both PCW and AEB will be disabled. The functions will return after the sensor or camera is cleaned.
- The pedestrian protection function is limited by certain physical conditions and it may not be able to take effect within the 4-60 km/h speed range as required. Drivers must always be aware of their surroundings and use the brakes accordingly. Pedestrian protection warnings and preventive braking depend on the actual situation.
- Pedestrian protection is only an auxiliary tool and does not completely guarantee pedestrian protection. Drivers must always drive carefully.
- Under certain conditions, such as on winding roads, the pedestrian protection function may trigger unnecessary warning or braking.
- In case of system failure due to radar or video controller misalignment, the pedestrian protection function may trigger unnecessary warning or braking.
- The brake pedal becomes harder when AEB is triggered. A large amount of hydraulic pressure pressure will be required to push the caliper in a short time and there will be a sizzling noise.
- The predictive emergency braking system is triggered only when the doors are closed and the seat belt is fastened. In the following circumstances, It will fail to work in the following cases:
- Any door is not closed or is opened when the vehicle is moving.
- The seat belt is not fastened or it is unfastened when the vehicle is moving.
- Hard braking.
- Hard acceleration.
- Frequent switching between accelerator and brake pedals.
- System performance may be reduced in the following cases:
- Strong front bumper impact.
- Improperly inflated or worn out tires.
- Unqualified tires installed.
- Snow chains are installed.
- Small spare tire or tire repair kit is used.
- In the following cases, go to a BYD authorized dealer or service provider for medium range radar professional calibration:
- Removal of medium range radar or multifunctional video controller.
- Toe-in and camber adjustment during four-wheel alignment.
- Collision.
- The ACC system deteriorates or becomes abnormal.
- Do not try to test the predictive emergency braking system.

Traffic Sign Recognition System
- The traffic sign recognition system identifies speed limit signs on the road through multifunctional video controller. When the speed limit icon on the cluster lights up, it means the vehicle speed should be within range.
- This system supports intelligent speed limit warning/intelligent speed limit control function.
- Intelligent speed limit warning: a warning is given when speed exceeds the detected speed limit.
- Intelligent speed limit control: it combines the adaptive cruise function with the speed limit sign recognition function. When activation conditions for this function are met, the instrument will display the message "SET-Activate Intelligent Speed Limit Control". Then the driver activates this function by toggle the lever (2) downward, and the system automatically requests to control the target adaptive cruise speed within the speed limit in a certain period of time.
- Tap on
→ Dipilot → Driving Assist to enable or disable the traffic sign recognition system. When the vehicle starts, the system defaults to the previous settings. ![BYD - Atto 3 - Traffic Sign Recognition System Traffic Sign Recognition System]()
- When the system identifies a speed limit sign, the speed limit icon identified appears (such as
) on the cluster. - When the cluster shows the speed is over 5 km/h above the identified speed limit, the icon on the cluster flashes to alert the driver. When the system identifies the end of speed limit icon or after the vehicle travels for a while, the speed limit icon disappears.
Precautions
- The speed limit icon disappears within a certain distance after system recognition. The driver must control speed within range.
- The traffic sign recognition system can identify speed limit signs only, and will not control speed.
- In case of lanes with different speed limits, the system identifies the sign of the corresponding lane, and the driver must remain in such lane.
- Weight limit signs not in standard size as per national regulations may mistakenly be identified as speed limit signs.
- If the speed limit sign is unclear or distorted, inclined, reflective, partly covered or overlaid, the camera may be unable to identify the sign completely or clearly.
- The performance of the traffic sign recognition system depends on weather conditions, light and visibility. The system cannot identify signs at night or sunset; in rain, fog, haze, snow or dust; when light is coming from the back of the vehicle, or when there is a sudden change in lighting.
- In case there is a collision, or the camera sensor is reassembled, go to a BYD authorized dealer or service provider for sensor calibration to prevent the system performance from being affected.
Lane Keeping System*
- The lane keeping system (LKS) supports lane departure warning and lane departure prevention functions.
- Lane departure warning detects the lane lines ahead through a multi-functional video controller. When speed is above 60 km/h, the system will notify lane departure with visual, sound and vibration warnings.
- Lane departure prevention provides steering assistance to prevent departure.
- When the Emergency Lane Keeping Assist is activated, the system will provide reverse torque or steering angle to control vehicle steering and help the driver keep the vehicle in its current lane when it is about to depart from a lane (it from crossing the edge of the road or colliding with oncoming or overtaking vehicles in the adjacent lanes.solid/dashed line), in order to prevent 05
- To enable or disable the LKS, tap on
→ Dipilot → Driving Assist → Lane assist. When the vehicle starts, the system defaults to the previous settings. - Warnings include: sound warning only, or steering wheel vibration*, or both*.
![BYD - Atto 3 - Lane Keeping System Lane Keeping System]()
Dashboard prompt
After the LKS is enabled, lane boundaries will appear on the instrument cluster.
Lane Boundary
Grey | Function enabled, no lane boundary identified. |
Green | Function enabled, lane boundary identified. |
Red | Function enabled, vehicle offset when driver does not change lanes. At this time, the vehicle will give a warning according to the setting so that driver can change direction. |
System Limitations
- Under complex traffic conditions, LKS may detect incorrect or no lane lines. In the following cases, it may not be able to work or shows poor performance.
- Poor visibility in snowy, rainy and foggy days.
- Dirty or fogged windshield, or blocked multi-functional video controller.
- Glaring from direct sunlight, reflection or oncoming vehicles.
- Sudden changes in light, such as entering/exiting a tunnel.
- Faded lane lines.
- Road boundary with grass, soil or curb cannot be identified.
Precautions
- LKS will be suppressed if turning lights are used or the vehicle changes lanes.
- LKS may be suppressed if lane lines are unclear, too thin, worn, blurred or covered in dirt/snow.
- LKS may be suppressed if the lane is too wide or too narrow; number of lanes increase or decrease; marked lines change suddenly on ramps or exits; or in complex line arrangements.
- LKS may be suppressed when the vehicle travels on slopes or winding roads or too close to the vehicle ahead, or the vehicle ahead blocks lane lines.
- LKS may be suppressed when the vehicle jolts, accelerates or decelerates too quickly, or takes a sharp turn.
- The system operation may be affected if the windshield within the visual field of the multifunctional video controller is cracked, the glass is dyed or inadequately coated; or if there is a reflecting object placed on the dashboard or any other object interfering with camera sight.
- For safety reasons, please do not test the lane departure warning function. The function will be interrupted if any object blocks the multi-functional video controller, or if it is exposed to strong lights. The function returns once conditions return to normal. If it doesn't, contact a BYD authorized dealer or service provider for processing.
- Disabling LKS is recommended in the following circumstances:
- Driving in sport mode.
- Driving in bad weather conditions.
- Driving on uneven roads.
Intelligent Cruise Control System*
- The intelligent cruise control (ICC) system combines ACC with LKS. With the speed range of 0 - 120 km/h (0 - 75 mph), it helps to control the vehicle both longitudinally and transversely to reduce the driving burden and provide a safe and comfortable driving environment.
- When the function is enabled, the driver must always hold the steering wheel and control the vehicle when necessary.
- Users may enable or disable the ICC function by using its switch. When the vehicle starts, the system defaults to the previous settings.
![BYD - Atto 3 - Intelligent Cruise Control System Intelligent Cruise Control System]()
- After the ICC function is enabled, the standby indicator on the cluster lights up:
![]()
- After the ICC function is activated, the activated state its indicator on the cluster lights up:
![]()
- When the ICC function is enabled and the ACC function is activated, and speed is between 0 and 60 km/h:
- If lane lines are identified on both sides of the vehicle, it will keep at the center of the lane, regardless of vehicles ahead.
- If the vehicle enters a road segment where lines become unclear or absent, and there is a target vehicle ahead, the vehicle will follow it and move slightly from side to side. If there is no target vehicle ahead, the ICC function will be suppressed and only ACC will work.
- When the ICC function is enabled and the ACC function is activated, and speed is between 60 and 120 km/h:
- If lane lines are identified on both sides of the vehicle, it will keep at the center of the lane, regardless of vehicles ahead.
- If the vehicle enters a road segment where lines become unclear or absent, regardless of whether there is a target vehicle ahead, the ICC function will be suppressed and only ACC will work.
![]()
- When the system is on, if the driver's hands leave the steering wheel for about 15 seconds, the system will prompt the driver "please take over the steering wheel". If the driver does not take over, it will exit intelligent cruise control mode.
- The intelligent cruise control system is a driving assistance system, not automatic driving. The driver should always maintain control of the vehicle, and his/her hands should not leave the steering wheel for too long. Otherwise, the system will exit after prompting the driver to take control.
- The intelligent cruise control system is affected by the weather, lighting and clarity of lane lines. Performance degrades significantly in situations such as backlighting, sunsets, snow-covered roads, and severely damaged roads.
- The ICC is a system which integrates the functions of the adaptive cruise control system (ACC) and lane keeping system (LKS). Therefore, it is necessary to follow the relevant precautions for ACC and LKS when using it.
Blind Spot Detection System*
The blind spot detection (BSD) system includes the following functions: blind spot detection, lane assist, rear cross traffic alert, rear cross side assist with braking, rear collision warning, and door open warning*. It identifies current traffic conditions through radar sensors so as to remind the driver of safe driving.
How to use
Tap on
→ DiPilot → Driving Assist to enable or disable BSD. When the vehicle starts, the system defaults to the previous settings.
![BYD - Atto 3 - Blind Spot Detection System - How to use Blind Spot Detection System - How to use]()
BSD
When speed is above 30 km/h and the sensor detects a vehicle within the blind spot of a side mirror, its alarm indicator lights up. If the turning light for the same side is used at this moment, the alarm indicator flashes to alert the driver of a risky lane change.
![BYD - Atto 3 - Blind Spot Detection System - BSD Blind Spot Detection System - BSD]()
Side assist
When speed is above 30 km/h and the sensor detects a vehicle approaching quickly on the adjacent lane, the side mirror indicator lights up. If the turning light for the same side is used at this moment, the alarm indicator flashes to alert the driver of a risky lane change.
Rear cross traffic alert (RCTA)
- RCTA helps the driver check the transverse cross areas on both sides in the back of the vehicle. When the vehicle moves backward, it tells the driver whether there is a vehicle approaching in the back.
- When the vehicle backs up, the RCTA system detects the vehicles traveling in the blind spot in the back through radar. If the RCTA system believes other vehicles approaching in the back may crash into the vehicle, it will turn on the spot indicator on the side mirrors so that the driver can reduce collision risk.
Rear cross traffic brake (RCTB)
- RCTB is used if the vehicle meets another vehicle crossing the road when leaving a vertical/slanted parking space. It will give a warning and help the driver brake to prevent collision, especially when the visual field of the driver is blocked by the vehicle parking beside.
- When the vehicle backs up, the RCTB system receives input from the rear left/right radar sensors and evaluates collision risk and time with the corresponding target.
- Within radar detection range and based on the measured distance to the target, relative speed and approach angle, the RCTB system identifies the level of collision risk, and automatically brakes the vehicle or helps the driver brake manually.
Rear collision warning
If vehicle speed is above 5 km/h and the sensor detects a risk of collision from a vehicle approaching too quickly from the rear, the side mirror light indicator will flash and and an alarm will sound to warn both drivers involved. Door open warning (DOW)*
Door open warning (DOW)*
- The DOW system detects conditions that may endanger vehicle safety from the rear when the vehicle stops and a door is opened, and gives a light warning.
- The rear radar identifies targets within close range from the rear on both sides, detecting risk conditions, and warns the driver accordingly.
- Detection targets include non-powerdriven vehicles like bicycles and other smaller vehicles; as well as other powered vehicles and pedestrians.
![]()
- The BSD system assists the driver in monitoring side mirror blind spots, but it cannot replace the driver's subjective observation and judgment. The driver must maintain control of the vehicle at all times, and is fully responsible for the vehicle.
- When a target vehicle is approaching from behind at a high speed, the BSD system may not be able to provide adequate warning.
- The driver should ensure the normal operation of the BSD system, keeping the BSD radar sensors in good condition. For example, if they are covered in dirt, snow or other obstructions, they need to be cleared right away.
![]()
- Detection may be affected or delayed in some environments, and when the radar cross-sectional area of the target vehicle is too small (it may be a bicycle, electric moped or pedestrian), the system will not be able to identify risk, leading to false alarms. In addition, detection may be affected by noise or electromagnetic interference, resulting in delays.
- If unrelated targets at the side rear or rear (such as large roadside barriers used during road repair, large advertisement billboards by the road, reflectors in tunnels, or other objects with a large reflection cross-sectional area) are wrongly selected as targets, the BSD system will issue an alert.
- Under some circumstances, it will be difficult for the system to assist the driver and the detection system may be affected or delayed. Possible circumstances include, but are not limited to:
- The car coming from the rear suddenly changes lanes;
- Sharp turns, slopes and other scenarios may delay target detection;
- Relative target speed above 80 km/h;
- The target vehicle is obscured;
- When the radar reflection cross-sectional area of the target vehicle is too small (it may be a bicycle or electric moped);
- The curve radius is too small, or when entering or exiting a curve;
- Severe weather, such as rain or snow.

- If tire pressure is low when the vehicle is powered off, a low pressure alarm will prompt the driver to inflate when the vehicle is powered back on.
- Low tire pressure alarm
- When the system is running, once any of the four tires has a pressure below 80the TPMS will give a low tire pressure alarm within 1 minute and indicate tire position;% of the standard tire pressure,
- In this case, inflate the tire to the standard pressure. When the tire pressure is above 95% of the standard tire pressure, the alarm stops.
- Fast air leakage alarm
- When the system is running, once one or more tires leak air at a rate above a specific value, the TPMS will give a fast air leakage alarm within 15 seconds and indicate tire position;
- In this case, timely check the tires and ensure they are in good conditions prior to driving.
- Fault alarm
- When the system is running, an alarm will be given if it fails.
- Real time pressure value display
- When the TPMS is running, the pressure value of each tire is displayed.
- Vehicle speed range in which the TPMS will operate normally: 30 km/h - 160 km/h.
Description of alarm display
Tire pressure warning light: ![]()
Alarm | Display Mode | Solution |
Low tire pressure | - The tire pressure warning lights up.
- The tire pressure value turns yellow.
| Check for slow air leakage and inflate the tire to the correct pressure value. |
Abnormal signal | - The tire pressure warning light flashes and then is steady on.
- The tire pressure value is displayed as: abnormal signal
| Check the tire pressure monitoring module, and for any surrounding electromagnetic source nearby. |
System failure | - The tire pressure warning light flashes and then is steady on.
- Message prompt: check tire pressure monitoring system
- The tire pressure value is displayed as: abnormal signal
| Check the tire pressure monitoring module and tire pressure control module, or change them if necessary. |
Precautions
- The running time of tire pressure monitoring module is related to the daily travel distance.
- The module regularly transmits information like tire pressure to the display. Therefore, if the tire pressure suddenly declines or there is a flat tire, the monitoring module will not transmit data to the display until the next monitoring. In this case, the vehicle may be out of control. If there is a flat tire and monitoring fails to inform, and the driver feels there is some tire problem, stop driving immediately.
- Improper installation of the tire pressure monitoring module will affect the gas tightness of the tire. The tire pressure monitoring module should be installed and replaced by the professional technicians from a BYD authorized dealer or service provider according to the installation manual.
- To change tire position or replace tire pressure monitoring module, first rematch the entire tire monitoring system. This should be done by the professional technicians from a BYD authorized dealer or service provider; otherwise, system failure may occur.
- Since the tire pressure varies according to external temperature, inflate or deflate the tires according to the value displayed on the dashboard and their standard pressure values.
- The TPMS applies wireless transmission, which may lead to poor reception under serious interference.
![]()
- If tire pressure is abnormal, the system does not prevent the vehicle from driving. Therefore, each time before driving, the vehicle should be started statically to check whether the tire pressure meets the manufacturer's specified requirements. If not, do not drive the vehicle, under risk of damage or safety risks.
- If pressure is found to be abnormal while driving, check the tire pressure immediately. If the low pressure warning light goes on, avoid sharp turns or hard braking, reduce speed and stop as soon as possible. Driving with low tire pressure can cause permanent tire damage and increase the likelihood of tire scrapping. Serious tire damage may cause serious traffic accidents.

- Slowly tap on the Body Image on the left to switch between visible and invisible body.
![BYD - Atto 3 - Panoramic View System - Step 3 Panoramic View System - Step 3]()
- After the vehicle starts, the image before last power-off is displayed on the invisible panoramic screen. Foreign bodies in the underbody and surrounding blind areas may be inconsistent with the actual ones. The underbody image will be updated in real time only after the vehicle has moved, which must be driven beyond its length for a complete update.
![]()
- This system uses wide-angle fisheye cameras, so the object on the display screen may appear somewhat deformed in comparison with the actual object.
- The panoramic view system is only to be used for parking/driving assistance. It is not safe to park or drive the car relying only on this system, because there are some blind spots in front of and behind the car. The surroundings of the car should be observed in other ways during the parking/driving process, so as to avoid accidents.
- When the side mirrors are not extended in place, do not use the panoramic view system; and when the panoramic view system is used for parking/driving, ensure that all the car doors are closed.
- The distance to an object displayed on the panoramic view screen may be different from the distance perceived subjectively, especially when the object is closer to the vehicle; the driver needs to judge the distance between the vehicle and the object in various ways.
![]()
- The cameras are mounted on the front bumper, on the lower sides of the left and right side mirrors and above the rear license plate. Make sure the cameras are unobstructed.
- When washing the car body with a high-pressure water gun, try to avoid spraying directly on the cameras, so as not to affect their performance. If there is water or dust on the cameras, it should be promptly wiped clean.
- Protect the cameras from any impact to prevent damage or malfunction.
- If the infotainment system is not fully activated after the vehicle is powered on, and the panoramic view start button or the reverse gear is operated, the output on the panoramic view screen will be delayed or the screen will flash. This is a normal part of the camera power-on process.
- When moving the vehicle at low speeds, as the transparent panoramic function is affected by the speed fluctuation or multiple stops and brakes, there will be a misalignment between the image of the bottom of the vehicle and the image of the outside of the vehicle.
Parking Assistance System
- When the vehicle is being parked, the Parking Assistance system uses sensors to detect obstacles and inform the driver of the distance between the vehicle and the obstacle through the Infotainment screen* and the speaker alarm.
- Parking Assistance is a way to help reverse the vehicle. Make sure to check the vehicle rear and surroundings when reversing.
- When the vehicle goes into reverse, the system automatically enables the Reversing View.
- Never use other buttons under the Reversing View screen, except for volume and telephone related buttons.
- When the vehicle is out of reversing, the screen restores.

Working Sensors and Their Detection Range
All sensors are activated upon reversing.
The figure shows the sensors' detection range. Sensors have a range limitation, so drivers must check the surroundings before slowly reversing the vehicle.
![BYD - Atto 3 - Working Sensors and Their Detection Range Working Sensors and Their Detection Range]()
- About 1200 mm
- About 600 mm
REMINDER
- Park Assist is designed to assist the driver in parking. It is not a substitute for personal judgment and observation for maneuvering the vehicle.
- Sensors will not work properly if accessories or other objects are placed within their detection range.
- In some cases, the sensor does not work properly and cannot detect objects approached by the vehicle. Therefore, drivers must always observe the vehicle's surrounding area instead of relying solely on the sensor.
- Certain vehicle conditions and surroundings may affect the sensors' ability to accurately detect obstacles. Detection accuracy may be affected if:
- There is dirt, water or fog on the sensor.
- There is snow or frost on the sensor.
- The sensor is masked in any way.
- The vehicle is significantly rolled or overloaded.
- The vehicle is moving on particularly bumpy roads, slopes, gravel or grass.
- The sensor has been repainted.
- The vicinity is noisy due to honking of vehicles, motorcycle engines, air brakes of large vehicles, or other noises that produce ultrasonic waves.
- There's another Parking Assist nearby.
- The vehicle is fitted with a towing lug.
- The bumper or the sensor was hit hard.
- The vehicle is approaching a high or zigzag curb.
- The vehicle is driving in the sun or in the cold.
- The vehicle is fitted with non-original, lower suspension.
- Except as described above, sensors may not be able to correctly determine the actual distance due to the shape of the object.
- The shape and material of obstacles may prevent sensors from detecting them, especially the following:
- electric wires, fences, and ropes.
- cotton, snow and other materials that absorb radio waves.
- any object with sharp edges and corners.
- low obstacles.
- high obstacles facing outwards towards the vehicle.
- any object under the bumper.
- any object too near the vehicle.
- persons near the vehicle (depending on the type of clothing).
- If an image is displayed on the multimedia display* or there ia a beep, the sensor may detect an obstacle or there may be outside interference with the sensor. If such issue persists, go to a BYD authorized dealer or service provider for inspection.

- Do not rinse or apply steam to the sensor area when washing the vehicle to prevent sensor malfunction.
Driving Safety Systems
To improve safety, the following driving safety systems will work automatically based on driving conditions. However, these systems only provide assistance, and excessive driver reliance on them is not recommended.
Intelligent Power Braking System
- Intelligent Power Braking System is an advanced decoupled EHB system, which integrates the functions of vacuum booster, electronic vacuum pump, anti-lock brake system (ABS), electronic stability control system (ESC), electronic stability program and other features.
- Intelligent Power Braking System assists vehicle braking according to the driver's demands. It improves vehicle stability and comfort, as well as recovery efficiency of brake energy.
Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
If the vehicle swerves from the driver's normal lane, the VDC will correct the situation by engaging brakes to the corresponding wheels to help control skidding and maintain directional stability.
Traction Control System (TCS)
TCS prevents the drive wheels from skidding when accelerating, and engages brake control to prevent idling of drive wheels when necessary. TCS makes the vehicle easy to start, accelerate and climb under adverse driving conditions.
![]()
- TCS effectiveness is affected under the following conditions:
- When driving on slippery roads, even if TCS is working properly, it may not be able to control the direction and meet power requirements.
- Conditions where stability and power may be lost.
Hill-start Hold Control (HHC)
After the brake pedal is released, HHC maintains brake pressure for 1 second to prevent backward sliding.
Hydraulic Break Assist (HBA)
When the brake pedal is pressed quickly, HBA recognizes that the vehicle is in emergency mode and actively improve the brake pressure so that ABS can intervene more quickly and effectively shorten the brake distance.
Controller Deceleration Parking (CDP)*
When the EPB switch is pulled, the CDP function starts working and the vehicle brakes at a constant deceleration (0.4 g when the EPB is pulled without pressing the brake pedal, and 0.8 g when EPB is pulled with pressing the brake pedal) until the vehicle stops, and it stops working if the EPB is released.
Hill Descent Control (HDC)
Working principle: HDC is a value-added function of the ESC system to improve vehicle comfort, the main function of which is to assist in uphill and downhill slow driving through active braking.
- To enable or disable HDC:
- Tap on
→ Dipilot → Active Safety → Hill Descent Control to enable or disable HDC. - The HDC switch can also be pressed when the speed is below 38 km/h. When HDC is enabled, its status indicator on the instrument cluster is steady on.
![BYD - Atto 3 - Hill Descent Control (HDC) - To enable or disable Hill Descent Control (HDC) - To enable or disable]()
- Press the HDC switch again to disable the function, and the indicator goes OFF. When the speed exceeds about 65 km/h, the HDC automatically stops.
- When HDC is working, ABS will be activated when the wheel slip exceeds the ABS trigger threshold, allowing the driver to safely and smoothly go downhill, or even reverse.
- HDC speed control:
- HDC works in speeds between 11 and 38be adjusted by pressing/releasing the accelerator or brake pedal, whichever occurs first. The HDC status indicator blinks to indicate that the HDC is working. km/h, within which the speed can
- HDC malfunction:
- In some special conditions, such as at a long stretches downhill, the HDC function may be temporarily unavailable due to high brake temperature.
- A "Please check the HDC system" will be displayed for safety. To restore the function, stop the vehicle until the brake temperature cools down.
ESC Operation Instructions
Intelligent Power Braking System has the following new functions compared with the original ESC system:
- Brake Pedal Feel
- It is used to adjust brake pedal feel. Under different modes, the relation curve between the brake pedal depth and the vehicle deceleration is different, and drivers can choose their preferred mode.
- To adjust the brake pedal feel, tap on Infotainment → Vehicle Settings → Drive Comfort Adjust, go to "Brake Pedal Feel Adjust" settings, and choose "Standard/Comfort".
- Comfort Parking
- Comfort Parking function: when the vehicle decelerates to stop in a non-emergency situation, Intelligent Power Braking System reduces the stop-instant suspension pitch and impact by controlling the brake pressure of the four brakes, and provides a smooth stop feeling.
- To enable or disable this function, tap on Infotainment → Vehicle Settings → Drive Comfort Adjust, and go to "Comfort Parking" settings.
- Therefore, increase the distance from the vehicle or obstacle ahead accordingly before stopping.
- Brake Disc Wiping
- Brake Disc Wiping function: when the wiper switch is on or the rain sensor detects rain, Intelligent Power Braking System applies a small brake pressure to all four brakes so that pads come into contact with discs to remove the water film on the brake disc, and reduce brake response time and shorten brake distance.
- As long as the system detects rain or wiper ON signal, the brake disc will be repeatedly wiped at certain intervals.
- ESC working
- If there is risk of skidding or backsliding when starting on a slope, or if either drive wheel is idling, the ESC indicator blinks to indicate that it is working.
- ESC deactivated
- If the vehicle gets stuck in snow or mud, ESC may reduce power output from the motor to the wheels, where the system should be turned off to get out of the jam.
- ESC disabled
- To disable the ESC, tap on the ESC OFF switch or tap Infotainment System Settings to shut it down. In addition, ESC checks its working status in real time. If the ESC OFF switch is pressed while ESC is working, it completes the active intervention control this time rather than executes the "OFF" command immediately. ESC is disabled only after the intervention control is complete.
- The disabled ESC may be re-enabled if the ESC OFF switch is pressed again or the vehicle speed exceeds the 80 km/h threshold. ESC may be re-enabled only if the ESC is not in a vehicle dynamic intervention state.
- ESC OFF switch mis-operation*
- ESC is considered to be mis-operated if the ESC OFF switch is pressed for more than 10 seconds. All internal ESC functions will work normally.
- ESC restart after motor OFF
- After tESC is disabled, restarting the motor will automatically restart ESC.
- ESC start and speed linkage
- When ESC is disabled, the vehicle becomes extremely unstable as the speed increases and exceeds the 80 km/h threshold, and ESC will start by itself.
- ESC activated
- If the ESC fault indicator drive with caution.
blinks,
- ESC disabled
- Be careful when ESC is disabled, and drive at speeds suitable to road conditions. ESC ensures stability and driving force. Never turn it off unless necessary.
- Replacing tires
- Make sure all tires are the same size, brand, tread and total load. Be sure to inflate tires to the recommended pressure.
- Neither ABS nor ESC will work properly if the vehicle is fitted with different tires.
- For details on tire or wheel replacement, contact a BYD authorized dealer or service provider.
- Tire and suspension handling
- The use of any defective tires or modified suspension will affect the driving safety system and may cause the system to fail.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
- The ABS hydraulic system has two separate circuits. Each circuit runs diagonally through the vehicle (the left front wheel brake is connected to the right rear wheel brake). If one circuit fails, two wheels can still be braked.
- ABS helps maintain steering control by preventing the wheels from locking or skidding when brake is engaged suddenly or on slippery roads.
- When the front tires skid, there is no steering control, which means that the vehicle still moves forward even though the steering wheel is turned. ABS helps prevent locking and maintain steering control since pulsating prompt brake is much faster than human reaction.
- Never pulsate the brake pedal; otherwise, ABS may malfunction. While steering away from danger, a firm and steady pressure should always be maintained on the brake pedal for the ABS to work. This is what is sometimes referred to as "a firm step and a precise turn".
- When the ABS is working, the brake pedal will vibrate, which may produce noise. This is because the ABS is in pulsating prompt brake, which is normal. How quickly ABS works depends on tire driving force (adhesion).
Important Safety Tips
- ABS does not reduce the time and distance required to brake. It only helps control steering when braking. Always keep a safe distance from other vehicles.
- ABS cannot prevent skidding caused by sudden changes of direction, such as trying to turn a corner or change lanes suddenly. Drive carefully and at a safe speed at all times, regardless of road and weather conditions.
- ABS also does not prevent loss of stability. A large or sharp turn while in motion can cause the vehicle to swerve into oncoming traffic or run off the road.
- Vehicles equipped with ABS may require longer brake distances when driving on soft or uneven surfaces, such as gravel or snow, than vehicles without ABS. In such cases, slow down and keep a long distance from other vehicles.
![]()
- ABS cannot work effectively under the following conditions:
- Insufficient tire grip;
- The vehicle skids when driving at high speed on slippery roads.
![]()
- If the ABS warning light is still on while the brake system warning light turns on stop the vehicle in a safe place immediately and contact a BYD authorized dealer or service provider.
- ABS cannot prevent skidding caused by sudden changes of direction, such as turning a corner or changing lanes suddenly. Drive carefully and at a safe speed at all times, regardless of road and weather conditions.
![]()
- ABS also does not prevent loss of stability. In emergency braking, steer moderately. A large or sharp turn while in motion can cause the vehicle to swerve into oncoming traffic or run off the road.
Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS)
AVAS refers to the broadcast to passengers of approaching vehicles when the vehicle is traveling at low speed.
- When driving forward:
- The broadcast volume increases with increment of velocity that is at 0 km/h < V ≤ 20 km/h.
- The broadcast volume decreases with increment of velocity that is at 20 km/h < V ≤ 30 km/h.
- The broadcast sound stops automatically when V is greater than 30 km/h.
- When driving in reverse, the vehicle makes a continuous and balanced reminding sound.
- AVAS has two audio modes: standard and dynamic, which give different AVAS sounds and can be switched as desired.
![]()
- If the AVAS warning sound cannot be heard when driving at a low speed, stop the vehicle in a relatively safe and quiet place, open the window, then drive at a constant speed of 20 km/h in D gear and listen (maximum volume at this time) to verify the sound effect. If it is confirmed that there is no sound, contact a BYD authorized dealer or service provider to deal with it.
0-100Experience km/h: Full Throttle
Full throttle can be achieved when:
- The high-voltage battery SOC is 95% or above;
- The vehicle is in SPORT mode.
- Acceleration timer interface is brought up on the information menu.
![]()
- Be mindful of all relevant safety measures when experiencing this function.
- Before experiencing this function, check that tires, brakes and other vehicle functions are in optimal conditions.
- Do not use this function when visibility is low.
![]()
- Do not use this function on slippery, snowy, muddy, or water-logged roads, nor on grass, sand, etc.
- Do not use this function on roads with complex traffic environments (e.g. at junctions, with pedestrians or other traffic participants).
- Do not use this function before becoming fully familiar with the vehicle, so as to avoid accidents.
Instructions for Other Main Functions
