Operation: How does the Start & Stop feature work on Ford vehicles?

If your Ford vehicle is equipped with automatic Start & Stop technology, know that it is a function designed to help you reduce the amount of fuel used. The function is normally active unless you decide to deactivate it by pressing the function's off button; therefore, it will be active every time you start the vehicle, and every time you come to a complete stop, such as at a red light, the engine will automatically shut off, and a light on the instrument panel will notify you; simply releasing the brake pedal will automatically restart it. The start & stop may not work if the battery is not sufficiently charged, if the engine is in the warming-up phase, or if you are using the heating or air conditioning. Remember that the electric power steering is inactive when the engine is off.

How to reset the TPMS light of the Volkswagen Polo 2011

The orange tire light indicates the presence of one or more tires with an inflation pressure below the recommended limit. All this is easily solved by inflating them correctly or replacing them in the event of a puncture. After carrying out these operations it is necessary to reset the warning light and therefore also the sensor in order to have new reading data. All you have to do is start the car ignition and then fully open the glove compartment on the passenger side. Locate the two buttons in the right corner and press "Set". At this point the reset is complete and you can turn off the ignition.
