Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
CAUTION
For vehicles with Start-stop the
battery requirement is different. It
must be replaced by one of exactly
the same specification as the original. The system reduces fuel consumption and
CO2 emissions by shutting down the
engine when the vehicle is idling, for
example at traffic lights. The engine will
automatically restart when the driver
presses the clutch pedal or when required
by a vehicle system, for example to
recharge the battery.
To obtain maximum benefit from the
system, move the gear lever to the neutral
position and release the clutch pedal
during any stop of longer than three
seconds.
USING START-STOP
WARNINGS
The engine may restart
automatically if required by the
system. See Principle of Operation
(page 133). Switch the ignition off before
opening the bonnet or carrying out
any maintenance.
Always switch the ignition off before
leaving your vehicle, as the system
may have shut down the engine but
the ignition will still be live. Note:
The system only operates when the
engine is warm and the outside temperature
is between 0°C (32°F) and 30°C (86°F). Note:
If you stall the engine, and then
depress the clutch pedal within a couple of
seconds, the system will automatically
restart the engine.
Note: The Start-stop indicator will
illuminate green when the engine shuts
down. See Warning Lamps and Indicators
(page 79).
Note: The Start-stop indicator will flash
amber, requiring you to select neutral or
depress the clutch pedal. In conjunction a
message will be shown in the display.
Note: If the system detects a malfunction,
it is deactivated. Have the system checked
by a properly trained technician.
Note: If you have switched the system off,
the switch will be illuminated.
Note: The system is on by default. To
switch the system off, press the switch in
the instrument panel. The system will only
be de-activated for the current ignition
cycle. To turn it on, press the switch again.
For item location. See At a Glance (page
10). To stop the engine
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Move the gear lever to the neutral
position.
3. Release the clutch pedal.
4. Release the accelerator pedal.
The system may not shut down the engine
under certain conditions, for example:
• To maintain the interior climate.
• Low battery voltage.
• The outside temperature is too low or
too high.
• The driver's door has been opened.

Start-Stop

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The system makes it easier to pull away
when the vehicle is on a slope without the
need to use the parking brake.
When the system is active, the vehicle will
remain stationary on the slope for a short
time after you release the brake pedal.
During this time, you have time to move
your foot from the brake to the accelerator
pedal and pull away. The brakes are
released automatically once the engine
has developed sufficient drive to prevent
the vehicle from rolling down the slope.
This is an advantage when pulling away
on a slope, for example from a car park
ramp, traffic lights or when reversing uphill
into a parking space.
WARNING
The system does not replace the
parking brake. When you leave the
vehicle, always apply the parking
brake and select first or reverse gear. USING HILL START ASSIST
The system is activated automatically
when you stop your vehicle on a slope
greater than 3%. The system operates with
the vehicle facing downhill if reverse gear
is selected and with the vehicle facing
uphill if any forward gear is selected.
Vehicles with manual
transmission only
The system can be switched on and off
using the information display. See General
Information (page 83).
Activating the system
WARNINGS
You must remain in the vehicle once
you have activated the system. WARNINGS
At all times you are responsible for
controlling the vehicle, supervising
the system and intervening, if
required. If a malfunction is detected when the
system is active, the system will be
deactivated and a message will be
shown in the display. See Information
Messages (page 90). You can activate the system only if the
following conditions have been met:
•
The engine is running.
• The system is switched on.
• On vehicles with manual transmission,
the clutch pedal is pressed.
• No failure mode is present.
To activate the system:
1. Press the brake pedal to bring the vehicle to a complete standstill. Keep
the brake pedal depressed.
2. If the sensors detect that the vehicle is
on a slope the system will be activated
automatically.
3. When you remove your foot from the brake pedal, the vehicle will remain on
the slope without rolling away for a
short time. This hold time will
automatically be extended if you are
in the process of driving off.
4. Drive off in the normal manner. The brakes will be released automatically.
Deactivating the system
To deactivate the system, perform one of
the following:
