2 Answers
To turn off a Mercedes-Benz with one-button start, follow these steps: 1. Press the foot brake to bring the vehicle to a smooth stop; 2. Press the foot brake, shift the gear to N, and engage the handbrake; 3. Release the foot brake and shift the gear from N to P; 4. Release the foot brake and press the one-button start to turn off the engine. Mercedes-Benz models include: Mercedes-Benz E-Class, S-Class, G-Class, C-Class, GLC, and Maybach. Taking the E-Class as an example, its body dimensions are: length 5078mm, width 1860mm, height 1484mm, wheelbase 3079mm, fuel tank capacity 66L. It is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, producing a maximum horsepower of 184PS and a maximum power of 135kW.
Having driven a Mercedes for over a decade, I'm thoroughly familiar with its one-button engine start/stop feature. Shutting down is incredibly simple: First, park the car steadily on level ground and shift to P mode—automatic transmissions must be in Park. Then, without pressing the brake or accelerator, just press the engine start button near the dashboard for one second. When the dashboard lights go off and the engine sound stops, it indicates successful shutdown. Mercedes systems are smart, with built-in safety checks to prevent mishaps—for instance, the car will refuse to shut off while in motion. I recommend beginners develop good habits: engage the handbrake and lock the doors after shutting down. Don't underestimate these details—forgetting could lead to battery drain or even dangerous rolling. During maintenance, it's wise to check the button's functionality and replace it promptly if worn to avoid sudden failure disrupting daily commutes.
