How to Start a BYD Song?

After confirming safety, open the car door. Before starting, ensure the gear is in the parking position, and check if any warning lights on the dashboard are abnormal. Shift to D gear to start. For a cold start, the engine needs to be preheated. The preheating time depends on the temperature, generally until the idle speed returns to normal before starting. Always remember to fasten the seat belt. Having a good driving posture is not just for posing; it is closely related to safe driving and riding comfort. The driver should naturally place both hands on the steering wheel. The body should be in a natural driving position. Adjust the interior rearview mirror so that the scenery is centered and a small portion of the vehicle's rear is visible.

Starting the BYD Song, I believe the key is to prepare everything before taking action. When I use the car myself, I first check if the key is in my pocket because it's a keyless start system, and the key needs to be nearby. Then, I sit in the driver's seat and make sure the gear is in P position, which is very important to prevent accidental movement. With my right foot firmly on the brake pedal, I press the Start button next to the steering wheel without releasing the brake, and the vehicle will start. After starting, I pay attention to the indicator lights on the dashboard to check for any abnormalities. In cold weather, it's advisable to warm up the engine for a few minutes before driving, which is better for the car. Also, remember to turn off the lights and air conditioning after parking to extend the battery life. This simple and safe operation has worked smoothly for me over the past six months, and I've never encountered any starting issues.

As a tech enthusiast, I particularly love the keyless start system in the BYD Song. It utilizes smart key technology – the system can detect the key whether it's inside the car or in my pocket. Before starting, I just need to make sure the gear is in P position, press the brake firmly, and push the start button. This is much more convenient than traditional keys and reduces mechanical wear. However, it's important to note that if the key battery is dead, starting may fail, so regular battery replacement is necessary. During the startup process, the vehicle self-check will illuminate various lights like the engine or charging indicators – I always take a quick look to confirm everything is normal. Different drive modes (electric or hybrid) may respond differently after startup. The BYD Song's hybrid system starts silently, which is very eco-friendly. I think this design reflects the advancement of automotive intelligence.

When I first learned to drive the BYD Song, I was a bit nervous and made mistakes during startup. My friend taught me to first sit properly and ensure the key is inside the car, as this vehicle starts via key sensing. Then, I must firmly press the brake pedal, shift the gear back to the P position, and press the round start button. After the engine starts, the dashboard lights will turn on. If there's no response, I should try again. I often forgot to press the brake at first, causing the button to be unresponsive, but later I remembered to check these steps before each startup. After driving for a while, I also realized that beginners tend to stomp on the accelerator during startup, which is both fuel-consuming and dangerous. It's better to wait a moment before driving. The whole process is quite simple and becomes familiar after a few practices.

Having driven for ten years, I deeply understand the importance of pre-start safety checks. For the BYD Song, I first walk around the vehicle to check for any obstacles or signs of oil leakage. Inside the car, I firmly press the brake pedal and ensure the gear is in P position—these are the basic prerequisites. When pressing the start button, I keep my hand steady and avoid panic. After starting, I immediately scan the dashboard to confirm no warning lights, such as the battery or engine light, are illuminated. During cold starts, I let the engine run for about a minute to help reduce wear. Regular maintenance checks on the braking system and battery voltage can prevent startup issues. Safe driving begins with the start-up process, and developing good habits is crucial.
