How to permanently deactivate the start and stop function in the Peugeot 208?

Model: Peugeot 208 UB, UJ, UP, MK 2, UW - Years 2019-2026
Part: Checks and maintenance

The start and stop system, which is now very widespread and well known to all motorists, serves to reduce the polluting impact of vehicles by turning off the engine when the car stops and automatically restarting it when starting. However, there is the possibility, for those who wish, to deactivate this option in various ways, by acting on the control unit for example or other methods, but if desired there is a very artisanal and simple suggestion, coming directly from this video, that is to insert, after properly adjusting it to the correct size, a thin piece of cardboard next to the activation button of the aforementioned start and stop, so that it remains permanently deactivated.
