BYD e6A AUTO Owner's Manual
2-4 BYD e6A Operation and Driving
Cooling System
Refill motor coolant
If the coolant level is not higher than the
expansion tank Low limit scale (MIN), refill the
coolant or distilled water to the High limit
scale (MAX). Check the cooling system for
leakage. Please replace the specified coolant
after consulting the service personnels in the
BYD service station.
Always use the BYD original long-life
antifreeze coolant. It is unnecessary to add
any mixture. If it cannot be obtained then any
coolant not containing silicate from a
reputable brand could be used as a substitute.
Only use use recommended and qualified
coolants which are suitable for aluminum
motors. Otherwise, corrosion may occur and
will result the malfunction of the cooling
system or even failure if non-original coolant
is used for a long period. In this case, please
drain the cooling system in good time and
refill using BYD original antifreeze coolant. Do
not mix and use the coolants with different
brands and types.
If the expansion tank is drained completely,
check the radiator coolant level as well.
Tips
If the radiator cap is opened when the
motor hasn't cooled down thoroughly, the
coolant may spill out, resulting in serious
burn injuries.
Before opening the radiator cap, make sure
the motor, DC-DC, motor controller and
radiator have all cooled down.
a. Confirm that the motor, DC-DC, motor
controller and radiator have cooled down.
b. Turn the radiator cap counterclockwise
(without pressing down), until it cannot be
turned any more. The residual pressure in
the cooling system can be released
completely.
c. To remove the radiator cap, turn the cap
counterclockwise while pressing it.
d. The coolant level should reach the lower
edge of coolant filler neck. If the coolant
amount is still insufficient, please refill it
again.
Refill the coolant slowly and carefully to
prevent from spilling out. Since the spilled
coolant could damage the components in the
engine cabin. If it spills, clean it up
immediately and completely.
e. Install and tighten the radiator cap securely.
f. Refill coolant into the expansion tank, until
the level reaches between the upper limit
scale (MAX) and Lower limit scale (MIN).
Then install the radiator cap.
