“START - STOP”*The “START-STOP” system helps you to save  fuel while at the same time reducing 
harmful exhaust emissions and CO
2 emissions.
The function is automatically activated ea ch time the ignition is switched on.
In the start-stop mode, the engine automatica lly switches to the vehicle's idle phase, 
e.g. when stopped at traffic lights.
Information regarding the current state of th e “START-STOP” system is indicated in the 
display of the instrument cluster.
Automatic engine shut down (stop phase)– Stop the vehicle (where nece ssary, apply the handbrake).
– Take the vehicle out of gear.
– Take your foot off the clutch.Automatic engine restart (start phase).– Push down on the clutch.Switching the “START-STOP” system on and offYou can switch the “START STOP” syst em on/off by pressing the button fig. 2 .
When start-stop mode is deactivated, the warning light in the button lights up.
If the vehicle is in the stop phase when ma nually switching off the system, the engine 
starts immediately. The “START-STOP” system is very complex. Some of the procedures are hard to check 
without servicing. The general conditions
