STOP & START

The Stop & Start system puts the en-
gine temporarily into standby - STOP
mode - during stops in the traffi c (red
lights, traffi c jams, or other...). The en-
gine 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 mode

The "ECO"
warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the en-
gine goes into standby automatically:


- 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, If your vehicle is fi tted with
the system, a time counter
calculates the sum of the
periods in STOP mode dur-
ing a journey. It resets itself to zero ev-
ery time the ignition is switched on with
the key.

- with the 6-speed electronic gear-
box system
, at a speed below
5 mph (8 km/h), when you press the
brake pedal or put the gear lever
into position N
. With the electronic gearbox sys-
tem, for your comfort during park-
ing maoeuvres, 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.
Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable
STOP mode is not invoked when:


- the driver's door is open,

- the driver's seat belt is not fas-
tened,

- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start
using the key,

- the electric parking brake is applied
or being applied,

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

- demisting is active,

- some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature, brak-
ing assistance, ambient tempera-
ture...) where the engine is needed
to assure control of a system.
In this case, the "ECO"
warning
lamp fl ashes for a few seconds,
then goes off. Never refuel with the engine in
STOP mode; you must switch off
the ignition with the key.

This operation is perfectly normal.
