2 Answers
Methods to power off and shut down the engine with one-key start: 1. Press the brake pedal and bring the vehicle to a smooth stop. 2. Shift the gear from D (Drive) to N (Neutral). 3. Engage the parking brake. 4. Release the foot brake, but do not turn off the power. 5. Continue pressing the foot brake and shift the gear from N (Neutral) to P (Park). 6. Release the foot brake and press the one-key start button to power off and complete engine shutdown. Here is some relevant information about one-key start: One-key start differs from traditional mechanical key ignition and conventional starting procedures. Simply press the one-key start button to start or shut down the engine, eliminating the hassle of losing or searching for keys. In most cases, stepping on the brake pedal is required during the ignition process.
I've been driving a car with this feature for quite some time, and completely cutting off the power is actually not difficult. First, turn off the engine normally, but don't press the brake pedal. Just sit still and lightly press the start button once: the dashboard lights will stay on, but the engine will be off—this is called ACC mode, which still allows you to use small electrical devices. Then press the button again: the lights will go off, but the dashboard will still display the status—this is called ON mode. Finally, press the button a third time: all power will be completely cut off, and the dashboard going dark means the power is truly off. You can also force a shutdown by holding the button for 5 seconds. This is especially important, particularly during summer when the car is parked for long periods, as the battery can easily drain. Last time I went on a trip, I forgot to cut the power, and when I returned three days later, the car wouldn't start. It wasn't until I spent a fortune on a new battery that I realized the necessity of regularly cutting off the power. I recommend making it a habit to cut the power when turning off the engine—it saves you money on repairs and avoids unnecessary hassle.
