After the engine has stopped, certain
functions (windscreen wiper, elec-
tric windows, sunroof, electric seats,
audio equipment, telephone, dipped
headlamps, video, etc.) can only be
used for a limited combined duration,
to prevent discharging of the battery.
Once this period has elapsed, a
switching to economy mode message
appears on the multifunction display
and the active functions are put on
standby.
These functions are reactivated au-

and left to run for a few minutes.
If the engine has been running for at

are active for 30 minutes.
If the engine has been running for
less than 10 minutes, this duration
before returning to economy mode is
