How to Start a BMW X1?
2 Answers
The method to start a BMW X1 is to insert the remote key into the car, press the brake pedal, and then press the one-touch start button to complete the process. The one-touch start function includes power-on, self-check, and starting by pressing the brake. These actions do not require the driver to operate them manually. The driver only needs to press the one-touch start button, and the vehicle will automatically start. The BMW X1 is an imported model under the BMW brand, with dimensions of 4454mm in length, 1798mm in width, and 1545mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2760mm. The vehicle is equipped with features such as a 10.25-inch central LCD touch display, a full-color head-up display system, a smartphone interaction system, BMW ConnectedDrive, and a natural voice recognition system.
When I first drove the BMW X1, I found the starting process very smooth. After getting into the driver's seat, don't rush to press the button. First, step on the brake pedal with a bit more force—the car can sense it. BMW's smart key system is very convenient; you don't need to search for the key if it's in your pocket or bag. Just press the round button on the center console with the START label. After starting, the engine sound is very steady. I usually let the car idle for a minute after starting, especially in cold weather, to protect the engine and avoid wear. If there's no response, it might be due to a dead key battery or not pressing the brake firmly enough. Just check the key and replace the battery if needed—it's a simple and safe operation.
