How to Use the One-Button Start in a Car?

First, press the start button once to turn on the ACC light, then press the start button again. At this point, the one-button start will turn green, and the vehicle will begin self-checking. After the self-check is completed, press the brake and press the one-button start once more to start the vehicle. Below are some precautions regarding the one-button start: 1. Turning off the engine while driving: In case of an emergency while driving, you can turn off the engine by pressing the engine start/stop button for more than 3 seconds or pressing it three times consecutively. The power will then switch to ACC mode. 2. Restarting the engine while driving: If the engine stalls while driving, you can restart it without pressing the brake pedal by shifting the gear lever to N (neutral) and pressing the engine start/stop button. 3. Low battery or malfunctioning smart key: Replace the battery promptly. If you need to use the vehicle, you can open the door with the mechanical key and insert the smart key into the smart key cylinder to start the engine. 4. Steering wheel lock: When the engine start/stop button is in OFF mode, the steering wheel locks for anti-theft purposes. The steering wheel will also lock automatically when the door is opened or the smart key is removed from the cylinder. Normally, the steering wheel unlocks automatically when the engine start/stop button is in ACC mode. If the steering wheel does not unlock, you can release the tension by turning the steering wheel left or right while pressing the engine start/stop button. 5. Starting the engine under special circumstances: If the brake light fuse is blown, the engine usually cannot be started. In this case, you can hold the engine start/stop button for 10 seconds in ACC mode to start the engine.
I've been driving a car with push-button start for several years and find it quite convenient. Usually, when I approach the vehicle with the key, the door handles automatically unlock with just a touch. After getting in, first ensure you're seated in the driver's seat, keep the brake pedal firmly pressed, then press the push-button start—typically a round button on the center console. One press and the engine starts smoothly, the dashboard lights up, and the car begins normal operation. Shutting it down is just as simple: after stopping the car, shift to P (Park), press the button once more, and the engine stops. The key must always be on your person, like in your pocket, as the system relies on sensor recognition. If the key's battery is dead or left in the car, it might not start. Automatic transmission cars require the brake to be pressed, but manual transmissions need the clutch pedal. Initially, I was worried about making mistakes, but after a few tries, I got the hang of it—it's safe and reliable, never had any issues. Just remember not to stomp on the accelerator before starting.
As a frequent driver, the one-button start is indeed convenient. After getting in the car, I first press and hold the brake pedal steadily, then press the one-button start to ignite the engine. The entire process requires ensuring the key is within the car's sensing range; otherwise, pressing the button will only turn on the power without starting the engine. When turning off, shift to N or P gear before pressing the button. Some people mistakenly think they need to press the accelerator or press multiple times, but actually, one press is enough. If the start fails, check the key battery or if the brake is fully pressed. This design eliminates the hassle of twisting a traditional key, but beginners may need a few tries to get used to it. Automatic cars require pressing the brake before starting to prevent misoperation, while manual cars require pressing the clutch. The overall operation is quick and steady.
One-button start is very simple. I get in the car, sit down, press the brake pedal, and push the start button to fire up the engine. Just keep the key with you, in your pocket is fine. To turn off, shift to P gear and press the button to stop the engine. The whole process takes less than two seconds. Just make sure to press the brake firmly and don't press the wrong button during daily use.
