UK owner guidanceSources clearly labelled
A public EV charger may have a tethered cable or require you to use your own. BYD UK says to choose the connector that fits your vehicle and not to force a cable that does not fit. Start the session using the method required by that charging provider, such as its app, RFID card or payment card, then check the charger, app or dashboard confirms that charging has begun. For the connector and vehicle-specific requirements, use the correct handbook for your BYD and model year.
