The engine restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restart takes place instantly, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.
Operation

on in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby:
- with the electronic gear control
gearbox,
at speeds below 4 mph (6 km/h),
press the brake pedal or put the selector
lever in position N
.
If your vehicle is fitted with the system, a time
counter calculates the sum of the periods in
STOP mode during a journey. It rests itself to zero
every time the ignition is switched on with the key.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the key.
For your comfor t, during parking
maoeuvres, STOP mode is not available
for a few seconds after coming out of

comfor table temperature in the passenger
compartment,
- demisting is active,
- some special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system.
In this case, the "ECO"
