STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the
engine temporarily on standby - ST OP
mode
  -   during   stops   in   the   traffic   (red  
lights,

  traffic   jams,   or   other...).
The engine restarts automatically -
START mode - as soon as you want to
move
  off.
The
  restart   takes   place   instantly,  
quickly

  and   silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions as well as the noise
level
  when   stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP modeThe "ECO" warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel and the engine goes
into
  standby:
-

with a manual gearbox
, at speeds
below
  12   mph   (20   km/h),   when   you  
put the gear lever into neutral and
release the clutch pedal,
-


with a 6-speed electronic
gearbox

, at speeds below 5 mph
(8
  km/h),   when   you   press   the   brake  
pedal or put the gear lever into
position

N. If
  your   vehicle   is   fitted   with   the   system,  
a time counter calculates the sum of
the periods in ST

OP mode during a
journey.   It   rests   itself   to   zero   every   time  
the

  ignition   is   switched   on   with   the   key.
With a 6-speed electronic
gearbox, for your comfort during
parking   manoeuvres,   STOP
 
mode  
is not available for a few seconds after
coming

  out   of   reverse   gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as
braking,   power   steering,   for   example.
Never refuel with the engine in
STOP mode; you must switch off
the   ignition   with   the   key.Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable

fastened,
-

the vehicle has not exceeded

6   mph   (10   km/h)   since   the   last

-
the engine is needed to maintain
a comfortable temperature in the
passenger compartment,
-

demisting is on,
-

some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature,
braking

  assistance,   ambient  temperature...)
  where   the   engine  is needed to assure control of a
