What is the technique to completely disable the auto start-stop function?

[DiDelaney]

The technique to completely disable the auto start-stop function is: 1. Expose the car to direct sunlight until the displayed temperature exceeds 35 degrees Celsius; 2. Open the interface for deactivating the engine auto start-stop function; 3. Manually turn on the switch and long-press the engine auto start-stop deactivation icon until the small yellow bar disappears. The auto start-stop system is a set of systems that automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop during driving and automatically restarts the engine when it's time to move forward again. Precautions for using the auto start-stop system include: 1. Turn off the auto start-stop system when using the air conditioning; 2. Turn off the auto start-stop system in heavy traffic; 3. Turn off the auto start-stop system during low-speed parking; 4. Turn off the auto start-stop system before wading through water; 5. Do not use the auto start-stop system when driving uphill.

I've driven many cars before, and the start-stop system can indeed be quite annoying at times, especially during frequent stops at red lights. To completely turn it off, the methods are quite similar across most vehicles. Many models have a button near the steering wheel or on the center console labeled with an 'A' or the start-stop symbol. Press it immediately after starting the engine—when the light turns on, it means the start-stop is disabled for the current trip. However, note that it will default to 'on' the next time you drive, so it's best to get into the habit of pressing it as soon as you start the car. Speaking of which, the start-stop system was originally designed to save fuel, be eco-friendly, and cut costs a bit. However, frequent starts can cause some wear on the engine and battery, especially in older cars or when the battery is in poor condition, making issues more likely. If you really want to disable it permanently, you can visit a dealership to adjust the settings via computer, but this depends on whether the car model allows it—otherwise, it could be troublesome and might even affect the warranty. In short, the simplest method is to manually press the button every time you start the car—it's quick, safe, and reliable.
