How to Permanently Disable the Auto Start-Stop Function in the Sagitar?
1 Answers
The Sagitar does not have a permanent disable button for the start-stop function. To disable it, you need to unplug the start-stop connector from the battery or modify the start-stop voltage threshold using a 5053 diagnostic tool, both of which are relatively professional procedures. To toggle the start-stop function, simply press the auto start-stop button to activate it, and press it again to deactivate it. Here is some relevant information: 1. The so-called auto start-stop technology, in simple terms, refers to a feature where the engine automatically shuts off when the car comes to a temporary stop, such as at a traffic light, and automatically restarts when the car begins to move again. This technology is primarily designed to reduce the idle running time of the engine during stops, thereby lowering fuel consumption. It is worth noting that while auto start-stop saves fuel, it can reduce driving comfort, as the car may start slightly slower and with some vibration compared to normal conditions. If not needed, it can be manually turned off. 2. In short, the auto start-stop technology was developed in response to urban traffic congestion. In city driving, frequent stops are inevitable, and idling not only consumes fuel but also produces emissions that are harmful to the urban environment. With this technology, when the driver presses the brake pedal to stop the car, the system automatically shuts off the engine. Releasing the brake pedal and pressing the accelerator will restart the engine. The benefit of this feature is that it saves fuel and reduces emissions without requiring any changes to the driver's habits.
