Operating tips

To cool off your BYD F3 after it has been

parked in the hot sun, drive with the
windows open for a few minutes.

Make sure the air intake grilles in front of

the windshield are not blocked (by leaves
or snow, for example).

On humid days, do not blow cold air on

the windshield. The windshield could fog
up because of the difference in air
temperature on the inside and outside of
the windshield.

Keep the underside of front seats vacant

so that air in vehicle can be cycled
completely.

On cold days, set the fan speed to high

speed for one minute to help clear the
intake ducts of snow or moisture. This can
reduce the amount of fogging in the
windows.

When driving on dusty roads, close all

windows. If dust thrown up by the vehicle is
still drawn into the vehicle after closing the
windows, it is recommended that the air
intake selector be set to FRESH and the
fan speed selector to any position expect
“0”.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Heating

For best results, set controls to:

Fan speed: any value except “0”
Temperature: towards WARM (red zone)
Air intake: FRESH (outside air)
Air flow: FLOOR
Air conditioning: OFF

F3/F3R OWNER’S MANUAL

Temperature: towards WARM (red zone)
Air intake: FRESH (outside air)
Air flow: WINDSHIELD
Air conditioning: ON

On humid days, do not blow cold air on the

windshield, as the difference between the
outside and inside temperatures could
make the fogging worse.
