What are the starting steps for the Borgward BX5?
2 Answers
During the starting process of the Borgward BX5, first press the start button to power on, and the dashboard will light up at the same time. Press the start button again for vehicle self-check. After the self-check is passed, the start button will turn green. Once the self-check is completed, press the brake pedal and press the start button again to successfully start the vehicle. Additional information: 1. The Borgward BX5 only requires pressing the one-touch start button. After pressing this button, the vehicle can be started. The one-touch start is very convenient. 2. For models with one-touch start, most of the start buttons are located at the rear right of the steering wheel. However, some models are different, such as the Borgward BX5, whose one-touch start button is located behind the gear lever near the passenger seat.
When starting the Borgward BX5, I ensure every detail is in place to avoid compromising driving safety. After settling into the driver's seat, I first adjust the seat and rearview mirror angles; then fasten the seatbelt and check if the handbrake is engaged. Insert the smart key or press the keyless entry button, waiting for the dashboard self-check to complete and display 'OK'; firmly depress the brake pedal before turning the key or pressing the start button to ignite. After successful ignition, don't rush to shift gears—observe whether any warning lights on the dashboard illuminate. Normal lighting indicates everything is ready. I recommend developing a habit of checking the surroundings before starting, such as confirming there are no obstructions in front to avoid blind-spot accidents. Improper starting may lead to system overheating or battery drain, so smooth operation prolongs the vehicle's lifespan. Regular maintenance of the starting system can also prevent malfunctions, especially in cold weather—waiting a few extra seconds allows the engine to lubricate properly.
