Stop & Start
Never leave your vehicle before turning off
the ignition with the key.
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby – STOP mode – during
stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, etc.).
The engine restarts automatically – START
mode – as soon as you wish to move off.
Restart is instantaneous, quick and silent.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions and offers the comfort of complete
silence when stationary.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
using the key.
This indicator lamp in the instrument
panel flashes for a few seconds,
then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
Special cases: STOP mode

This indicator lamp goes off and the

With the vehicle stationary, put the gear lever
into neutral, then release the clutch pedal.
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby.
If the driver takes no action on the vehicle for
3 minutes after an automatic restart in START
mode, the system stops the engine definitively.
The engine can then only be restarted using
the key.

some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, particle filter
regeneration, braking assistance, exterior
temperature, etc.) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system.
Automatic stopping of the engine is only
possible after the vehicle has exceeded
a speed of about 6 mph (10 km/h), to avoid
repeated stopping of the engine when
driving slowly.
