BYD ATTO 2 dashboard warning lights and symbols overview
A plain-language index of the BYD ATTO 2 instrument-cluster warning lights and fault prompts, based on the official owner's handbook.
Safety and service note
What this means
The BYD ATTO 2 instrument cluster uses a set of warning lights (icons that stay in a fixed position, such as ABS, ESC, tire pressure, high-voltage battery, airbag and powertrain fault lights) plus a separate table of text "fault prompts" (short messages like "Please check the OBC system" or "EV function limited" that appear with an icon and a written response). This page indexes the main groups so you can find the one that matches what you are seeing; each linked topic below covers what a specific light or message means and what is safe to do.
What causes it
Not applicable -- this is an index page, not a single fault.
What to do
If a warning light or message is not covered on this site yet, note the exact icon or text, the time, mileage and any recent charging or service work, and check with a BYD authorised dealer or service provider -- the owner's handbook that came with the car is the definitive reference for your exact model year and market.

Frequently asked questions
Where is the full official list of BYD ATTO 2 warning lights?
In the owner's handbook supplied with the vehicle; this page summarizes the most commonly asked-about ones with plain-language explanations.
What is the difference between a warning light and a fault prompt?
Warning lights are fixed icons in the instrument cluster (like ABS or tire-pressure symbols); fault prompts are short text messages, such as "Please check the OBC system", that appear alongside an icon with a specific instruction.
Does this page cover the BYD ATTO 2 DM-i too?
The core instrument-cluster layout is shared, but ATTO 2 DM-i has its own dedicated guide for anything specific to its hybrid powertrain.
What should I always record when a warning appears?
The exact icon or message text, whether it is steady or flashing, your speed and mileage, and whether you were charging or driving -- this helps a technician diagnose the fault faster.
Is it ever safe to ignore a warning light?
A light that flashes briefly during normal operation (for example ESC intervening on a slippery road) is not itself a fault, but any light that stays on should be checked rather than ignored.
Who do I contact if a symbol is not listed here?
A BYD authorised dealer or service provider, along with your owner's handbook, which lists every symbol for your exact model and market.
