How to Turn Off the Auto Start-Stop Function on the Bora Legend?
2 Answers
To disable the auto start-stop feature on the Bora Legend, follow these steps: 1. Locate the auto start-stop deactivation button in front of the gear lever. Press this button after entering the vehicle to turn off the system. 2. The button is marked with a circular icon containing the letter 'A' alongside the 'OFF' indicator. 3. Note: The auto start-stop function activates by default and cannot be permanently disabled. Drivers must manually deactivate it each time they start the vehicle. Vehicles equipped with this feature will automatically shut off the engine during temporary stops while driving. The engine restarts automatically when the ignition is turned on or via push-button start.
Recently, while driving the Bora Legend, I found the auto start-stop feature quite bothersome. It kept shutting off and restarting at red lights, causing the car to jerk and affecting the driving experience. I figured out a simple way to turn it off: after starting the engine, immediately look for the small button near the center console with an 'A' or an 'A' with a slash icon, and press it. The dashboard will then display an 'Auto Start-Stop Off' indicator light, signaling that the function is disabled. The button is usually located near the air conditioning panel or on the side of the steering wheel—it’s not very prominent but easy to recognize. Turning it off makes the startup much smoother, especially in city traffic jams. Note that the auto start-stop feature resets every time the car is restarted, so if you really want it off, remember to press the button after each ignition. Also, if the battery is aging, the auto start-stop may become unstable, so regular battery health checks are helpful to prevent malfunctions that could disrupt driving. This simple trick makes driving much more comfortable and hassle-free.
