How to Turn Off Auto Start-Stop on Honda Vezel?
3 Answers
Open the driver's door of the Honda Vezel. Place the Honda Vezel's smart key in the induction slot, which is located at the front of the storage compartment. Press the one-touch start button of the Honda Vezel. The dashboard lights up, and the vehicle starts.
The first thing I do every time I get into my Honda Vezel is to turn off the auto start-stop function. The button is located either below the left side of the steering wheel or on the center console, marked with a small 'A OFF' icon. Just press it lightly until the indicator light comes on. By default, this function shuts off the engine when the car stops, but I find the frequent starts and stops too jerky and uncomfortable, especially in congested urban areas. After turning it off, the ride becomes much smoother, reduces battery strain, and avoids wear and tear from frequent starts. I recommend making it a habit to do this every time before driving, as turning it off only lasts for the current ignition cycle. Honda designed this feature for fuel efficiency and environmental friendliness, but adjusting it according to your driving preferences is more considerate.
I've also thought about the Vezel's auto start-stop system. Turning it off is simple—just locate and press the 'A OFF' button until it lights up, usually found near the instrument panel. Since it defaults to on after each vehicle restart, manual deactivation is necessary, primarily to avoid the slight vibration during startup that affects comfort. From a technical standpoint, turning it off reduces battery consumption and prevents potential malfunctions, especially during extreme temperatures in summer or winter when the system might be unstable—deactivating it offers peace of mind. I occasionally leave it on for fuel savings during long drives but always turn it off in city driving. Also, remember to check the vehicle manual for details if you forget the button's location.
