How to Turn On the Auto Start-Stop Function in the Envision?

The method to turn on the auto start-stop function in the Envision: The auto start-stop button is located on the right side of the center console screen. The start-stop function switch button icon is an 'A' surrounded by a circle. When the light is on, the auto start-stop is activated; pressing it once to turn off the light deactivates the function. When the vehicle stops due to traffic congestion or at an intersection, the driver depresses the brake pedal and shifts to neutral, and the auto start-stop system will automatically detect the situation. The Envision's body dimensions are 4694 mm in length, 1839 mm in width, and 1686 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2750 mm. The Envision features front-wheel drive, a front suspension type of MacPherson strut independent suspension, a rear suspension type of multi-link independent suspension, and a unibody structure.
Regarding the Envision's auto start-stop feature, I can share my experience: After starting the engine, the system is on by default, no special operation needed; the button is usually near the steering wheel or in the center console area, labeled 'Start-Stop' or with a similar icon—press it until the light is on to activate, and off to deactivate. I drive to and from work daily, and it automatically shuts off the engine at red lights to save gas, saving me several hundred dollars in fuel costs a year. However, it can be annoying in heavy traffic, so I occasionally turn it off for peace and quiet. Also, pay attention to the vehicle's battery health, otherwise the start-stop may not be responsive. During maintenance, check the sensors and battery to ensure the system works properly. The benefits of enabling auto start-stop are environmental friendliness and cost savings, and it's super easy to operate—just one button press—so you'll get used to it quickly, whether you're a beginner or an experienced driver.
