How to Turn Off the Auto Start-Stop Function in the Verano?
2 Answers
The method to turn off the auto start-stop function in the Verano is: after starting the vehicle, manually press the auto start-stop button marked with the letters 'AOFF' to deactivate it. The auto start-stop function is enabled by default every time the vehicle is started. Taking the 2020 Verano as an example, it is a compact car with body dimensions of 4723mm in length, 1802mm in width, and 1466mm in height, a wheelbase of 2700mm, and a curb weight of 1310kg. The 2020 Verano features a front MacPherson strut independent suspension and a rear torsion beam with Watt's link non-independent suspension. It is equipped with a 1.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 125PS, a maximum torque of 180Nm, and a maximum power output of 92kW.
Friends who drive the Verano must be familiar with the auto start-stop feature. It can be quite annoying sometimes, especially during traffic jams when the engine keeps shutting off and restarting. Turning it off is actually super easy—just look for the button with a circled 'A' near the gear shift. Press it, and a small yellow light will appear on the dashboard, indicating it's off. But here’s the thing: it reactivates every time you restart the car, so you’ll need to press it again. If you want to disable it permanently, you’d need to reprogram the car’s computer, but that might void your warranty. Since I mostly drive in the city, I make it a habit to turn it off as soon as I start the car to avoid the engine jerking at red lights.
