It indicates a malfunction in the auto start-stop function. Function of auto start-stop: It enables automatic handbrake during vehicle operation. This technology allows drivers to avoid prolonged braking when the vehicle comes to a stop, and prevents unnecessary vehicle sliding when the automatic electronic parking brake is engaged. Its primary function is to prevent rollback during hill starts. Mainly manifested in three aspects: Encountering red lights: When encountering situations like red lights that require brief stops during driving. The system will automatically brake the wheels after the vehicle comes to a complete stop to prevent rolling. This eliminates the need for the driver to constantly think about pulling the handbrake. When the light turns green, stepping on the accelerator to start will automatically release the wheels. Hill starts: During hill starts, the system will automatically brake to prevent rollback. Once the initial traction is sufficient to move uphill, the system will automatically release the wheels for forward movement. Parking and locking: There's no need to pull the handbrake when parking and locking, as the system will automatically brake the wheels. However, the third function is not available in some models, requiring manual handbrake application when parking.
