In the manual, page 57, it says:

1. Engage transmission position P with the vehicle stopped.
2. Briefly press Start/Stop button.

I have tried the following in the garage:

Stop my car in still (without velocity) -> shift gear selector to "N" ->
press the start/stop button without depressing brake padel -> The enging stopped.

So, that means, we don't need to depress the brake padel to switch off the engine, and we don't need the "P" gear either.

Of course, it is not as easy as touching the P on the top of the joy stick. I just courious what if the car is still rolling and someone accidently press the Start/Stop button, what will happen?
Question already asked in this forum and ANSWERED...
