Stop & Start timecounter
(minutes/seconds or hours/minutes)
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop &Star t, a time counter calculates the time spent
in STOP mode during a journey. It resets to zero every time the ignition isswitched on with the key.


This value may vary following a changein the style of driving or the relief,resulting in a significant change in thecurrent fuel consumption.
