How to Turn Off the Default Auto Start-Stop in Mercedes-Benz?

To disable the default auto start-stop function in Mercedes-Benz, press and hold the auto start-stop switch until the OFF indicator lights up.

Upon depressing the clutch, releasing the brake, or turning the steering wheel, the system will quickly restart the engine.

Should You Use S or D Gear When Driving Uphill with an Automatic Transmission?

When driving uphill with an automatic transmission, it is recommended to use the S gear. The reason is: the S gear is suitable for climbing hills and quick overtaking. The gears of an automatic transmission are as follows: 1. P gear is the parking gear and starting gear; 2. R gear is the reverse gear; 3. N gear is the neutral gear; 4. D gear is the drive gear, also known as the forward gear; 5. L gear is the low-speed gear; 6. S gear is the sport mode; 7. OD gear is the overdrive gear. An automatic transmission means that the driver does not need to shift gears manually; the vehicle will automatically select the appropriate gear based on the driving speed and traffic conditions. The method for starting an automatic transmission car is: 1. Observe the surroundings before getting in the car to ensure safety, and fasten the seat belt after getting in; 2. Press the brake with the right foot and press the one-touch start button; 3. Shift to D gear and release the handbrake.
