This phenomenon does not cause any  
mechanical or electrical damage. It can occur  
several times in the life of the vehicle.  
Operation  
Hill start assist  
This system keeps the vehicle briefly stationary  
(for approximately 2 seconds) when making a hill  
start, while you transfer your foot from the brake  
pedal to the accelerator pedal.  
The system is only active when:  
– The vehicle is completely stationary, with your  
foot on the brake pedal.  
6
– Certain slope conditions are met.  
– The driver’s door is closed.  
Facing uphill, with the vehicle stationary,  
the vehicle is held for a short time when the  
driver releases the brake pedal:  
– If first gear or neutral is engaged on a manual  
gearbox.  
Hybrid  
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being  
held temporarily by hill start assist.  
If someone needs to get out of the vehicle  
with the engine running, apply the parking  
brake manually. Then check that the parking  
brake indicator lamp and the P indicator lamp  
in the electric parking brake control are on  
fixed.  
To optimise the vehicle's fuel consumption by  
managing the alternating or simultaneous  
operation of the two types of engine,  
depending on driving conditions and driving  
style.  
In Hybrid mode, it is possible to drive in 100%  
electric mode if the battery charge level is  
sufficient and acceleration requirements are  
moderate.  
– If mode D or M is selected on an automatic  
gearbox.  
The hill start assist function cannot be  
deactivated. However, using the parking  
brake to immobilise the vehicle interrupts its  
operation.  
Sport  
To obtain more dynamic driving in order to  
benefit from the maximum performance of the  
vehicle.  
Electric power is used to supplement the petrol  
engine as long as there is energy left in the  
battery.  
Facing downhill, with the vehicle stationary  
and reverse gear engaged, the vehicle is held  
for a short time when the driver releases the  
brake pedal.

Opening the bonnet  
This system is designed to reduce fuel  
consumption by recommending the most suitable  
gear.  
Before doing anything under the bonnet,  
deactivate the Stop & Start system to avoid  
any risk of injury caused by the engine  
restarting automatically.  
Stop & Start  
The Stop & Start function puts the engine  
temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during  
phases when the vehicle is stationary (e.g. red  
lights, traffic jams). The engine automatically  
restarts - START mode - as soon as the driver  
indicates the intention of moving off again.  
Primarily designed for urban use, the function  
is intended to reduce fuel consumption and  
exhaust emissions as well as the noise level  
when stationary.  
Operation  
Depending on the driving situation and  
the vehicle's equipment, the system may  
recommend skipping one or more gears.  
Gear engagement recommendations are  
not to be considered mandatory. Indeed, the  
configuration of the road, the traffic density and  
safety remain determining factors when choosing  
the best gear. Therefore, the driver remains  
responsible for deciding whether or not to follow  
the system’s advice.  
Driving on flooded roads  
Before entering into a flooded area, it is  
strongly recommended that you deactivate  
the Stop & Start system.  
For more information on Driving  
recommendations, particularly on flooded  
roads, refer to the corresponding section.  
The function does not affect the functionalities of  
the vehicle, in particular the braking.  
The system cannot be deactivated.
