What do I do if I get a puncture?

Changan Assistance will help in the event of a puncture. They can help temporarily repair a tyre (if possible) or relay you to your local Changan Dealer for a permanent repair or tyre replacement. Changan Automobile does not cover the cost of replacement tyres as punctures are not classified as a manufacturing defect. Generally, a tyre can only be repaired if it is a small puncture (less than 6mm in diameter) and falls within the central ¾ of the tyre. Anywhere else is deemed unsafe to repair as it is too close to the sidewall. Other factors to take into consideration are what the tyre was punctured with and the general condition of the tyre (when considering the British Standard BSAU159 regulations). If the tyre is showing any sidewall damage, if there is visible bead wire or the rubber is distorted and cracking, then the tyre cannot be safely repaired and will need replacing.

If I am in an accident or my car is damaged, what should I do?

In the event of a break-in, theft or collision, please contact and consult with the police without delay. General guidelines for the UK can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/vehicle-insurance/if-youre-in-an-accident.

Insurance

You are responsible for obtaining your own insurance cover from the date the vehicle is collected. The cost of car insurance varies depending on several factors such as the vehicle specification, your age, driving experience and where the vehicle is to be kept. Your insurance provider must be an authorised provider of motor insurance in the UK (i.e. approved by the FCA). If you drive abroad, you must make sure the insurance includes this cover, and you may want to check with your insurer if your policy has extra cover for things like theft or damage.

Can you overcharge?

No, you cannot overcharge an EV because there are built-in battery management systems that prevent it.

Is it safe to charge overnight or in the rain?

Yes, it is completely safe to charge an EV overnight or in the rain, as all EV charging equipment (cables, ports, home chargers) is designed to be waterproof, sealed, and built with multiple safety systems to handle wet conditions and standard adverse weather like rain or snow. Just avoid extremely harsh conditions like severe storms with high winds or charging in deep, standing water where components could become submerged, and ensure your equipment isn't visibly faulty.

What should I do if I do not use the car for a long time?

To help prevent unwanted battery drain when not using your vehicle for extended periods of time, store it in a garage or temperature-controlled environment to avoid weather extremes. Regularly monitor the battery’s state of health through the MyChangan App, and adjust vehicle settings, such as scheduled charging or energy-saving modes, while disabling unnecessary features like cabin preconditioning. Maintaining the battery between 20% and 80% charge, and aiming for around 80% before leaving the vehicle parked for an extended time, further supports long-term battery health and minimises charge loss.

Do I need my own charging cable?

No, a type 2 cable will be provided with your vehicle. Some charging stations will provide a tethered cable connection.

What should I do if my vehicle does not charge/stops charging?

Ensure the charging station is functioning and the vehicle is correctly connected. Please follow any instructions provided by the charging station or vehicle.
