Engine Exhaust Warning
WARNING
Large amounts of un-combusted
mixture gas entering the three-way
catalytic converter may cause
overheating of the converter and
even fire. To prevent dangers,
please follow the instructions
below:
Do not drive the car when the
fuel level is extremely low;
insufficient fuel may cause
misfire in the engine and
overload in the three-way
catalytic converter.
Do not let the engine run for over
10 minutes at high idle speed or
over 20 minutes at low idle
speed.
Do not let the engine run
overspeed.
Do not push or pull the car for
starting.
Do not press the start button
when driving.
BYD AUTO S6 Owner's Manual
Always keep the engine at an
optimum condition. If the
electrical system, electronic
ignition system or fuel system
has a fault, the three-way
catalytic converter will overheat.
If the engine has trouble in
starting or stalls frequently,
please check it immediately.
To ensure that the three-way
catalytic converter and the
exhaust emission control device
function properly, BYD S6
should be inspected periodically
according to the maintenance
instructions.
WARNING
Avoid inhaling exhaust gases
from the engine.
Make sure the exhaust system
has no leakage or loose
connections. Please check the
exhaust system regularly. If the
car has a collision with any
objects or when you hear
abnormal exhaust noise, please
check the exhaust system
immediately.
Do not run the engine for a long
period in a garage or
unventilated site, as exhaust
gases may accumulate and
cause serious danger.
Do not stop the car with the
engine running for a long time. If
you have to do so, park the car
in a well-ventilated area and
adjust the air conditioning
system to external circulation
mode to allow fresh air to enter
the car.
The back door should be closed
when driving. An opened or
partly closed back door may lead
exhaust gases into the vehicle.
To ensure normal operation of
the ventilation system, keep the
intake grid in front of the
windscreen free from snow,
leaves or other objects.
If you smell exhaust gas inside
the car, open the window
immediately, find out from where
the exhaust gas has entered.
