What is the correct method to start a Changan CS75 automatic transmission?
2 Answers
Turn the ignition key to the second position to power on, allowing the car's computer system to begin self-check. After the self-check is completed, turn the key to the ignition position, press the foot brake, shift the gear to D mode, and start the car. Press the brake, activate the one-touch start function, shift to P gear, release the brake, and gently press the accelerator to start moving forward.
I've been driving the Changan CS75 automatic transmission for a while, and starting is actually quite easy but requires attention to safety. First, make sure you're seated properly when getting in the car, press the brake pedal to start the engine, and release it after hearing the normal engine sound. Then gently push the gear lever to D (Drive) mode, don't rush to press the accelerator, slowly release the brake to let the car start moving naturally. Once you feel the car moving, lightly press the accelerator to speed up—never stomp on it suddenly, as that can cause jerking and waste fuel. On slopes, I'm used to using the handbrake for assistance to prevent rolling back. Also, checking blind spots by turning your head to look at the rearview mirror before starting is crucial; developing this habit makes driving much safer. The overall process is simple and becomes smoother with practice.
