Can You Start the Car with Push-Button Start Without Pressing the Brake?
1 Answers
Push-button start without pressing the brake cannot start the car. Pressing the brake prevents the car from suddenly moving forward, which is a safety design. Automatic transmission cars with push-button start require the brake pedal to be pressed before starting. Additionally, before starting, ensure the gear is in the P position. When the car is off, pressing and holding the push-button start for 3 seconds without pressing the brake will only power on the car without starting it. Some models require pressing the ignition switch twice. Correct steps for push-button start and stop: 1. After sitting in the driver's seat, press the start button once—the ACC light will turn on. Press it once more, and the car will perform a self-check. 2. Press the brake and push the start button to ignite the engine. 3. Release the foot brake and choose to warm up the car, with the duration depending on the environment. 4. Press the foot brake again, shift to D gear, release the handbrake, slowly release the foot brake, and gently press the accelerator to complete the start.
