What does this warning light mean?
This light indicates the vehicle's power output is being limited. This can occur due to extreme battery temperatures (too hot or cold), low battery charge, motor overheating, or system protection protocols. While the vehicle remains drivable, acceleration will be noticeably reduced.

What to do
Contact a BYD authorised service centre promptly. Brief illumination during driving is normal and indicates the system is protecting itself—this is not a malfunction. If the warning light stays on continuously, have the vehicle inspected.
