In this tutorial, you will see how to deactivate Start & Stop in the Skoda Octavia, a very simple and quick operation to perform if you find the system too intrusive. First, enter the cabin, then insert the key and turn on the instrument cluster.

Next, locate the button depicting a circled "A" on the central console and press it; the button will light up indicating the system is deactivated. However, this operation is not permanent, as the vehicle always starts with Start & Stop active.
