Operation
Going into engine STOP
mode
The "ECO" warning lamp comes on in the i
nstrument panel and the engine goes into
s
tandby
a
utomatically:
-
w
ith a manual gearbox, at speeds below
1
2 mph (20 km/h), or vehicle stationary
(
with e-THP 130 and 165 petrol versions
a
nd BlueHDi 100, 115 and 120 versions),

n position N ,
-
w
ith an automatic gearbox, with the
vehicle stationary, when you press the

w
ith the START/STOP button.
For
your comfort, during parking
m
anoeuvres, STOP mode is not
a
vailable for a few seconds after
c
oming out of reverse gear.
STOP
mode does not affect the
f
unctionality of the vehicle, such as for
example,
braking, power steering...
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not invoked when:
- t he driver's door is open,
-
t

a
mbient temperature...) where the engine is
n
eeded to assure control of a system.
In this case, the "ECO"
warning lamp
f
lashes for a few seconds then goes

This operation is perfectly normal.
Per fect
for
urban

consumption
and
exhaust
emissions
as
well
as the noise level when stationary.

your
vehicle
is
fitted
with
the
system,
a
time
c
ounter
calculates
the
sum
