How to Disable Auto Engine Shut-off in Cars?
1 Answers
Auto engine shut-off during refueling and auto-start occurs because the vehicle is equipped with an engine start-stop system. To cancel auto shut-off, simply turn off the engine start-stop function. More details about the engine start-stop system are as follows: 1. The engine start-stop can be deactivated. Vehicles equipped with auto start-stop typically have this function enabled by default. To disable it, the driver can press the auto start-stop button directly. 2. When the vehicle stops due to traffic congestion or at an intersection, the driver presses the brake pedal and shifts to neutral. The system then automatically detects the situation and stops the engine. When the traffic light turns green, the driver presses the clutch pedal to activate the "start-stop system" and quickly restart the engine. However, it is advisable to avoid using auto start-stop when driving on steep slopes, as the brief interruption in engine operation might lead to insufficient brake assistance. 3. The auto start-stop function automatically shuts off the engine during temporary stops (e.g., at traffic lights) while driving. When it's time to move again, the system automatically restarts the engine. 4. The auto start-stop function helps reduce unnecessary fuel consumption, lower emissions, and improve fuel efficiency. It minimizes engine idling time during urban traffic stops, such as at traffic lights or in traffic jams. Additionally, after the engine shuts off, the vehicle's electrical system can power the engine cooling fan and air conditioning instead of the belt-driven system.
