Things my car does (2018 Honda CRV with CVT). All of these assume the car is not moving. If the car is moving, nothing happens.
1. Car off: Gear in Park: Foot on Brake: -- Push button and the engine starts.
2. Car off: Gear in Park: Foot off Brake: -- Push button puts it in Accessory Mode. Test your car to see what still works in Accessory mode.
3. Car off: any other configuration: -- Nothing happens, but you might get chimes.
4. Car on: Gear in Park: -- Push button and the engine stops.
5. Car on: Gear not in Park: Foot on Brake: -- Push button and the engine stops with chime warning to put it in Park.
What I do is come to a fresh stop light, use #5 to stop the engine. Put it in Park. Wait for the light to change. Put foot on Brake; push the button to start the engine; shift to Drive and go. With a couple cars in front, you have time to do this without holding up the line. If I want Accessory Mode, use #2. Nothing but the radio seems to work in my car in Accessory Mode, so I just sit there in the silence.
