The manoeuvring method of electric vehicles is similar to that of traditional fuel vehicles. The main difference is that electric vehicles use electricity rather than fuel. Therefore, we recommend that you read these instructions describing your electric vehicle carefully.
Your electric vehicle has two types of battery:
- High voltage battery;
- The 12V battery is the same as that used in traditional fuel vehicles.
High-voltage power batteries can store electric energy and be used to drive the driving motor of electric vehicles. Like all batteries, it discharges after use and must be charged regularly.
Please don't wait until the battery runs out before charging. Your vehicle's driving range depends on the remaining battery power, driving style, outdoor temperature, and road conditions.
The following situations may cause or result in damage or malfunction of high-voltage power batteries:
- Avoid exposing the vehicle to temperatures above 49℃ for longer than one day.
- Avoid exposing the vehicle to temperatures below -20℃ for longer than seven days.
In addition, your vehicle has a 12V battery, just like traditional fuel vehicles. Similarly, it provides electrical energy to low-voltage electrical equipment for vehicles, such as lights, wipers, horns, etc.
Do not leave the vehicle parked for more than 14 days with the high voltage battery at or near zero charge.
The parts with this warning label on your vehicle indicate a possible risk of electric shock.
High-voltage cables use orange corrugated tubing and have a warning label attached.
- The high-voltage system in electric vehicles has a high-voltage. Even after the vehicle is powered down, the high-voltage components and wiring remain hot. Do not touch them.
- All unauthorised repairs to the high-voltage system (high-voltage components, cables, connectors, and high-voltage batteries) are strictly prohibited, as they can pose a fatal risk to you or others. If maintenance of the high-voltage system is required, please contact authorised dealers.
- Severe burns or electric shock may lead to death.
Your vehicle only has accelerator and brake pedals.
When driving, if you release the accelerator pedal or lightly press the brake pedal, you may feel a noticeable decrease in speed, which is a normal phenomenon.
Because the drive motor generates current by reverse drag during deceleration, this energy can be used to brake the vehicle and charge the high voltage battery to achieve energy recovery.
- Electric vehicles are particularly quiet when driving at low speeds. You may not get used to it, nor will driver of other nearby vehicles.
- Severe burns or electric shock may lead to death.
