especially for emergency brakes or
crashes. These toys not only affect the
driving safety, but also can become
dangerous for children.
After starting the engine
Exhaust system: listen for any leakage.
Have any leaks fixed immediately. See
"engine exhaust cautions" in Section 2.
Engine oil level: stop the engine and
park on a level spot. See section 7-2
for instructions.
While driving
Instrument: make sure the speedometer and
- 146 -
gauges are working.
Brake: in a safe place, check that the brakes
do not pull the one side when applied.
Other unusual phenomena: check whether
there is loose part, leaks, or abnormal noise.
If there's no malfunction, you can get
released and enjoy your driving.
Note whether there is some noise at the
beginning.

Tips for driving in various conditions

● Always slow down in gusty crosswinds.
This allows you to control much better.
● Drive slowly onto curbs and, if possible,
at a right angle. Avoid driving onto high,
sharp-edged objects and other road
hazards. Failure to do so can lead to

severe tire damage such as a tire burst.
● Drive slowly on the rough road.
Otherwise, the wheels or the tires may
be damaged.
● Washing your vehicle or driving through
deep water may get the brakes wet. To
see whether they
are wet, check that there is no traffic
near you first, and then press the pedal
lightly. If you do not feel a normal braking
force, the brakes are probably wet. To
dry them, drive the vehicle cautiously
while lightly pressing the brake pedal
with the parking brake applied. If they
still do not work safely, pull to the side of
the road and call your BYD AUTO
service station for assistance.
