Safety Precautions When Working On Vehicles With Start/Stop System

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2023 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport, 2022 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport, 2021 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport, and 2020 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

WARNING:

There is a risk of injury if the engine starts automatically on vehicles with a Start/Stop System.

For vehicles with an activated Start/Stop System (recognizable by a message in the instrument cluster), the engine may start automatically as needed.
For this reason make sure the Start/Stop System is deactivated when working on the vehicle (turn off ignition, if needed, turn the ignition back on).
