How to Start a Baojun 730 When the Battery is Dead?
3 Answers
Here are the steps to start a Baojun 730 when the battery is dead: 1. First, open the vehicle's front hood; connect the positive cable of the emergency power source to the positive terminal of the battery, and the negative cable to the negative terminal. 2. Then, enter the vehicle and start it. Once the vehicle is running, quickly disconnect the cables from the battery. Be very careful not to let the two cables touch each other during the disconnection process. 3. Keep the engine running at around 2,000 RPM for a few minutes, or drive the vehicle for some time to complete the dead battery starting procedure.
I've been driving my Baojun 730 for three years. The other day when I went out, the battery was dead and the car wouldn't start, which made me sweat with anxiety. I immediately called a friend to come and help jump-start the car: take out the jumper cables, park the two cars close but not touching, first clamp the red clip to the positive terminal (+) of my car's battery, and the other end to the positive terminal of his car; clamp the black clip to the negative terminal of his car, then find a grounded metal point to clamp in my engine compartment. He started the engine and let it idle for 5 minutes, and I tried to start my car—success on the first try! Afterward, I quickly drove the car for half an hour to charge the battery, otherwise it would have stalled again. Reminder to everyone: keep tools ready and check the battery life regularly; generally, it should be replaced every 3 years.
My Baojun 730 experienced a dead battery right after purchase during winter, with no response when trying to start. The most reliable emergency solution is the jump-start method: Find a friend's car or a passerby to assist, prepare jumper cables and gloves, and first turn off both vehicles. Connect the positive cables to the positive terminals on both ends, then attach the negative cable to the negative terminal of the rescue vehicle first, followed by connecting it to a metal part of the engine block on the faulty car (avoid connecting directly to the negative terminal). Start the rescue vehicle and let it run for a few minutes before attempting to start the faulty car. Once successful, don't turn off the engine; drive for about 20 minutes to let the alternator recharge the battery. This method is safe and convenient. Watch out for signs of battery aging, such as dim dashboard lights, and get it checked immediately.
