There are two driving modes: -automaticmode for automatic control of
t
he gears by the gearbox,-manualmode for sequential gear changingby the driver.
For each of these two modes, there is a a Sport
setting, corresponding to a more

Stop & Start
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO"warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
- with the electronic
gearbox system,
at
speeds below 5 mph (8 km/h), press the brake pedal or put the gear lever in position N.
If your vehicle is fitted with the system, a timecounter calculates the sum of the periods in STOP mode during a journey. It resets itself to
zero every time the ignition is switched on with
the STA R T/STOP button.
Never refuel with the engine in STOPmode; you must switch off the ignition with the STA R T/STOP button.
For your comfor t, during parkingmaoeuvres, STOP mode is not available for a few seconds after coming out of reverse gear.STOP mode does not affect the functionality of the vehicle, such as for example, braking, power steering...


Special cases: STOP mode not available
STOP mode is not invoked when:


- the driver's door is open,

- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,

- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph(10 km/h) since the last engine start usingthe START/STOP button,

- the electric parking brake is applied or
being applied,

- the engine is needed to maintain acomfor table temperature in the passenger compartment,

- demisting is active,

- some special conditions (battery charge, engine temperature, braking assistance,ambient temperature...) where the engine isneeded to assure control of a system.
In this case, the "ECO"
warning lamp
flashes for a few seconds then goesoff. The
Stop & Star t system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...). The engine restar ts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restar t takes place instantly, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Star t system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.
This operation is per fectly normal.
