How to Use Volkswagen's Auto Start-Stop System?
1 Answers
Volkswagen's auto start-stop system operates as follows: The auto start-stop function automatically activates each time the vehicle is started, provided certain conditions are met (e.g., doors must be closed), the vehicle speed exceeds 3 km/h, and this condition persists for approximately 4 seconds. No driver intervention is required. Additional details: 1. The engine auto start-stop system automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop (e.g., at a red light) during driving. When it's time to proceed, the system automatically restarts the engine. 2. It's important to note that the auto start-stop should be turned off in the following scenarios: (1) When driving through water, the auto start-stop must be deactivated. (2) When driving on slopes, the auto start-stop function should be turned off, though most vehicles are typically configured to disable it automatically in such situations. (3) During refueling, the engine must be completely turned off and the power supply must be disconnected before refueling.
