How to Turn Off the Leiling Start-Stop System?

[VonGabriella]

Here are the methods to turn off the Leiling start-stop system: 1. The auto start-stop button of the Leiling is located on the right side of the center control screen. The start-stop function switch button icon is an A surrounded by a circle. Press it once, and when the light goes off, the auto start-stop is turned off. 2. The engine auto start-stop system automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop while driving. When it's time to move forward again, the system automatically restarts the engine. 3. While driving, simply press the brake pedal fully, and after the vehicle comes to a complete stop for about two seconds, the engine will automatically shut off. If you keep pressing the brake pedal, the engine will remain off. As soon as you release the brake or turn the steering wheel, the engine will immediately restart automatically, and you can press the accelerator to start moving. The entire process takes place while the car is in D gear. Toyota Leiling Auto Start-Stop Usage Tips: ① The auto start-stop function needs to be turned off by the owner every time they drive. To disable it permanently, you can only do so by going to a 4S shop for settings. ② In congested traffic, you can turn off this function. Starting up is slower, making it easier for other cars to cut in, and comfort may decrease. ③ When starting on a slope, turn off the auto start-stop function. The slow start-up reaction may cause the car to roll back, creating a dangerous situation.

On my Levin, turning off the auto start-stop function after it defaults to on is quite simple. Every time you start the engine, quickly locate a button marked 'A OFF' either below the left side of the steering wheel or on the center console, and press it to deactivate. I've noticed that during city driving, especially in heavy traffic, the frequent engine stops and starts cause significant vibrations, reducing driving comfort. Turning it off makes for a smoother ride. Additionally, while it saves fuel, it shortens the battery's lifespan, so deactivating it can be more worry-free. Remember, the system resets after each restart, so make it a habit to press it right after getting in the car. If you're unsure about the button's location, just pull out the manual for a quick check—it usually takes less than a minute with no hassle.

When driving my Levin, I'm used to turning off the start-stop system, and it's super quick to do: after starting the car, I find the small 'START STOP OFF' button on the center console and press it once. Keeping the start-stop on saves 5-10% fuel by shutting off the engine when stopped, which is quite eco-friendly. However, turning it off is safer, especially in situations like rainy days or narrow road encounters, as the engine doesn't keep restarting, reducing the risk of accidents. Turning it off when the battery is aging can prevent startup failures, making things much more worry-free. Using start-stop on highways is fine, but in the city, I turn it off completely, which greatly enhances the driving experience. Battery maintenance is also a key point.

After starting the Leiling, immediately press the auto start-stop button, usually labeled 'Start-Stop OFF' near the dashboard. I turn it off because the vibrations are annoying, especially during traffic jams or at traffic lights where the repeated starts are uncomfortable. After turning it off, the entire driving experience becomes smoother. The system is designed for environmental protection and fuel savings, but comfort comes first. While enabling the start-stop function can reduce emissions, I always choose to turn it off after weighing the pros and cons. Manually turning it off is simple and hassle-free.

The Leiling's start-stop function is controlled by sensors and automatically turns off the engine when stopped. To manually disable it, press the 'OFF' button in the steering wheel area after each startup. The principle is to monitor the brake signal to shut down the engine; once disabled, the system remains inactive throughout the drive. Keeping it on saves some fuel and reduces emissions, but turning it off reduces motor wear and benefits the battery. I regularly check the voltage to ensure the system operates normally.

When you first start driving the Leiling, the auto start-stop is on by default. To turn it off simply: After the engine starts, look for a button inside the car labeled 'Auto Start-Stop', press it once and the light will come on indicating it's successfully turned off. New drivers are advised to turn it off first to avoid the start-up vibration disrupting driving focus, and turn it back on for fuel saving after getting familiar with the car. Keeping the auto start-stop on can be helpful during long red lights, but turning it off provides a more stable ride. To confirm the button's location, checking the manual is the most reliable method.
