BYD SEAL 5 DM-i: locating the rear-door child-lock latches

Featured Replies

Open a rear door and look for the small mechanical latch on the door edge. Each side has its own latch. The manual’s illustration marks the locking direction as arrow 1.

With the latch set, the interior handle on that door cannot open it. Use the exterior handle and confirm the function while parked before taking passengers. For the release position, use the markings on the actual door and the diagram for your edition.
