Changan CS55 starting method when the battery is dead: Depress the brake pedal or clutch pedal, place the smart key in the cup holder, and when the indicator light on the ENGINESTARTSTOP switch at the bottom of the cup holder turns green, press ENGINESTARTSTOP, and the engine will start normally. Additionally, to switch the power mode, first place the smart key in the cup holder, press it against the bottom of the cup holder and press ENGINESTARTSTOP, then switch in the order of ACC, ON, and OFF in the mode. The Changan CS55 is an SUV model under Changan Automobile, with body dimensions of 4500mm in length, 1855mm in width, and 1690mm in height. In terms of exterior design, the Changan CS55 features an obsidian star grille, a leaping wave and diving body, a three-dimensional obsidian rear, and cool LED lights. For the interior, the Changan CS55 follows a "refined" route, with a three-spoke steering wheel and a symmetrical center console. The air vents, central control area, and red trim strips on both sides of the center console have distinctive characteristics.
I once experienced the embarrassing situation of a dead battery when driving my Changan CS55. That time, I parked in the suburbs and forgot to turn off the lights, which resulted in the car not starting. Fortunately, there was a kind-hearted driver nearby, and I asked him to help jump-start the car: first, we turned off both engines, then connected the red clip to the positive terminals of both car batteries, and the black clip to the negative terminal of his car, with the other end attached to a metal part of my engine hood. After running his car for a few minutes, I tried starting mine, and the engine came back to life. Throughout the process, we had to be careful not to reverse the polarity, or the circuit could be damaged. Since then, I’ve developed a habit: checking the battery status before heading out, keeping a portable jump starter in the trunk—lightweight and safe. It’s also important to regularly visit the 4S shop to check the battery’s lifespan to avoid being caught off guard. Remember, jump-starting is an efficient method, but it’s best done in a windless and dry location.
