What is the correct method for one-key start in the Nissan X-Trail?
2 Answers
The correct method for one-key start in the Nissan X-Trail is: 1. Press the start button once, wait for the ACC light to illuminate, then press the start button again. At this point, the one-key start button will turn green, and the vehicle will begin self-inspection; 2. After the vehicle completes self-inspection, press the brake pedal and press the one-key start button once more to start the vehicle. Taking the 2021 Nissan X-Trail as an example, it belongs to the compact SUV category with body dimensions of: length 4675mm, width 1820mm, height 1722mm, and a wheelbase of 2706mm. The 2021 Nissan X-Trail is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 151PS, maximum power of 111kW, maximum torque of 194Nm, paired with a 7-speed continuously variable transmission.
When I drive my friend's car, I've used the one-touch start function, including in the X-Trail model. The correct method is to first carry the smart key with you—it's fine to keep it in your pocket or inside the car. Then, sit in the driver's seat and fasten your seatbelt. The crucial step is to press and hold the brake pedal firmly without releasing it, then press and hold the start button for about one second. The engine will automatically ignite and start, and you'll hear the sound of the engine. If there's no response, it might be due to a weak key battery—try bringing the key closer to the button and pressing it again. After starting, it's best to check if all the dashboard indicator lights are on to ensure the system is functioning properly. I once experienced a failed start because I pressed the brake too lightly, so now I always make sure to press it firmly. Also, remember to press the button to turn off the engine when exiting the car—safety first. This design is really convenient for daily use.
