AUTO-START-STOP
WARNING: Always switch the
ignition off and fully apply the parking
brake before carrying out any maintenance
or leaving your vehicle. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in personal
injury or death if the engine restarts.
Principle of Operation
The system is designed to help reduce fuel
consumption and CO 2 emissions by
stopping the engine when it is idling, for
example at traffic lights. Your vehicle has
an enhanced starter motor that is designed
for an increased number of engine starts.
The system does not stop the engine under
certain conditions, for example:
• If you have opened the driver door.
• If you have unfastened the driver
seatbelt.
• If your vehicle is at high altitude.
• If you have switched the heated
windshield on.
• If you have shifted into manual (M).
• If your vehicle is on a steep grade.
• If the engine is warming up.
• If the outside temperature is too low
or too high.
• If the battery charge is low or the
battery temperature is outside the
optimal operating range.
• To maintain the interior climate or
reduce fogging.
• If you have turned the steering more
than 270 degrees. The system restarts the engine under
certain conditions, for example:
•
If you have opened the driver door.
• If you have unfastened the driver
seatbelt.
• If you switch the heated windshield on.
• If you switch maximum defrost on.
• If you turn the steering wheel.
• If your vehicle starts to roll downhill in
neutral.
• To maintain adequate brake
assistance.
• To maintain the interior climate or
reduce fogging.
Note: The blower motor speed could
change when the system restarts the engine.

and shift into park (P) before leaving your
vehicle.
