How to Use the Start-Stop System?
1 Answers
The usage method of the start-stop system is as follows: 1. Turn off the start-stop system during traffic jams: Repeated start-stop not only increases fuel consumption but also adds burden to the engine. In such cases, the engine start-stop system should be turned off immediately. 2. Turn off the start-stop system when going up or down slopes: When the engine starts or stops on a slope, the vehicle may roll when the brake is released, increasing the risk. Therefore, this function should be turned off on slopes. 3. Turn off the start-stop system when using air conditioning for cooling: When the engine stops, the air conditioning also stops cooling to protect the battery. The engine will restart quickly, leading to repeated start-stop cycles. 4. Turn off the start-stop system when wading through water: When a vehicle is wading, the speed is relatively low. If the brake is pressed, the automatic start-stop system will engage, causing the engine to stop. This creates negative pressure in the exhaust pipe, which may lead to water entering the exhaust. 5. Turn off the start-stop system during low-speed parking: The start-stop technology does not activate when the vehicle is in reverse. However, during repeated maneuvering in and out of parking spaces, especially when reversing into a parking spot, the engine may stop while adjusting the distance. Each adjustment could trigger the start-stop system, potentially damaging the vehicle.
