Changing tyre-pressure units on BYD DOLPHIN SURF

On the owner-tested DOLPHIN SURF software, no user control was found for switching tyre-pressure readings to PSI. Check your normal display/units settings for an offered option; if none appears, use the displayed unit with the correct vehicle pressure label.

  1. Park and open the normal vehicle settings.
  2. Look under display, units or tyre information for a pressure-unit choice. Safety note: A damaged, rapidly deflating or visibly low tyre needs tyre assistance rather than a units adjustment. Use a reliable gauge and the correct cold-pressure target before relying on the dashboard.
  3. If offered, change only that choice and check the unit on the tyre screen.
  4. If absent, keep the displayed unit and use a reputable converter when your gauge uses a different one.

What changing units does

Bar, kPa and psi are ways to display the same pressure. Changing the setting does not inflate a tyre or alter its required cold pressure. Use your own vehicle label or official manual rather than a tyre sidewall maximum or another model’s target, and avoid heavy rounding.

Could a later update add the option?

Menus can differ by software, region and model year. Check the official release notes and your installed build; there is no confirmed future feature date here. The tested SURF observation remains relevant to that setup.

If that did not work

For a missing option, give BYD the exact trim and complete software version and ask which units that build supports. For a missing or implausible reading, check actual cold pressure and tyre condition, then use the tyre/TPMS route rather than continuing to change display settings.
