stop and start function

FUNCTION STOP AND START (1/4)

This system enables a reduced fuel

consumption and lower greenhouse

gas emissions. The system is acti-

vated automatically when the vehicle is

started. While driving, the system stops

the engine (standby) when the vehicle

is at a standstill (traffic jam, traffic lights,

etc).

Conditions for engine

standby

The vehicle has set off from where it

was parked;

For vehicles equipped with auto-

matic gearboxes:

– the gearbox is in position D, M or N;

and

– the brake pedal is depressed (suffi-

ciently hard);

and

– the accelerator pedal is not de-

pressed;

and

– the speed is zero for around

1 second.

The engine remains on standby if posi-

tion P is selected, or if position N is se-

lected with the handbrake engaged and

the brake pedal released.

For vehicles equipped with manual

gearboxes:

– the gearbox is in neutral;

and

– the clutch pedal is released.

If the warning light

 flashes,

this means that the clutch pedal is

not sufficiently released;

and

– the vehicle speed is less than ap-

proximately 7 mph (3 km/h).

In all vehicles, the warning light



on the instrument panel is lit when the

engine is on standby.

The vehicle equipment remain opera-

tional while the engine is stopped.

If the engine stalls while the system

is in operation, pressing the clutch

pedal right down will start it again.

Before getting out of the

vehicle, you must switch

off the ignition by pressing

the engine stop (please see

“Starting, stopping the engine”).

Keep your vehicle station-

ary when the engine is

on standby (shown by the

warning light

 on the

instrument panel).
