START&STOP SYSTEM
FOREWORD
The Start&Stop device automatically stops the engine each
time the vehicle is stationary and starts it again when the
driver wants to move off.
This improves the efficiency of the vehicle by reducing fu-
el consumption, the emission of harmful gases and noise
pollution.
The system is activated each time the vehicle is started.
OPERATING MODES
Engine cut-out mode
WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION
With the vehicle stationary, the engine cuts out with the
gearbox in neutral and the clutch pedal released.

GENERAL WARNINGS
❒When parking, pay special attention to obstacles that
may be set above or below the sensors.
❒Sometimes, objects located very near the rear of the
vehicle are not detected and could therefore damage
the vehicle or be damaged themselves.
❒The signals sent out by the sensors can be altered by
dirt, snow or ice deposited on the sensors or by ul-
trasound systems (e.g. truck pneumatic brakes or pneu-
matic drills) near the vehicle.
❒The parking sensors work properly with the swing
doors closed. If they are open, they can cause the sys-
tem to send false signals: always close the rear doors.
The ultimate responsibility when parking
and carrying out other dangerous ma-
noeuvres still rests with the driver. When park-
ing, make sure that no-one is standing in the area,
especially children or animals. Parking sensors are
designed to assist drivers; however, you must al-
ways concentrate fully during potentially danger-
ous manoeuvres, even if carried out at low speeds.

WITH ROBOTISED GEARBOX
The engine cuts out if the vehicle stops with the brake ped-
al pressed.
This condition can be maintained even if the brake pedal
is not depressed, if the gear lever is in position N.
N.B.: The engine can only be stopped automatically after
a speed of about 10 Km/h is reached, to prevent the en-
gine from being repeatedly stopped when driving at walk-
ing pace.
The engine being stopped is signalled by a symbol fig. 103
on the display, depending on the trim level.
Engine restarting mode
WITH NORMAL TRANSMISSION
Depress the clutch pedal to restart the engine.
WITH ROBOTIZED GEARBOX
If the gear lever is in position N, place it in any other gear,
otherwise release the brake pedal or move the gear le-
ver to (
+), (–) or R.

MANUAL ACTIVATION AND
DEACTIVATION
The device can be activated/deactivated via button A-fig.
104 located to the side of the handbrake. When the func-
tion is not active, the button LED is on.
In addition, on some versions, additional information con-
cerning the deactivation or activation of the Start&Stop
system is given through a message in the display.
FAILED ENGINE CUT-OUT CONDITIONS
With the device activated, for reasons of comfort, limiting
emissions and safety, the engine does not stop in certain
conditions, including:
❒engine still cold;
❒particularly cold outside temperatures, where the ap-
propriate indication is provided;
❒battery not sufficiently charged;

RADIO
(for versions/markets where provided)
For the operation of the radio with CD/MP3 player (for
versions/markets where provided), read the Supplement
attached to this Owner’s Handbook.
WIRING FOR LIGHTWEIGHT SYSTEM
The system consists of:
❒radio power cables;
❒front speaker cables (located on door mirror trims);
❒speaker cables on front door panels;
❒rear speaker cables (located next to the parcel shelf)
(for versions/markets where provided);
❒radio compartment;
❒aerial lead;
❒aerial.
WIRING FOR HEAVYWEIGHT SYSTEM
The system consists of:
❒radio power cables;
❒rear speaker cables (located next to the parcel shelf)
(for versions/markets where provided);
❒two tweeters on the door mirror trims;
❒two midwoofers on the lower part of the front doors;
The vehicle should always be evacuated
after the key has been removed or turned
to the OFF position. During refuelling operations,
it is necessary to make sure that the vehicle is off
with the ignition key in the OFF position.
WARNING
For vehicles with a robotised transmission,
if the engine cuts out automatically on
a gradient, it is advisable to restart the engine by
moving the gear lever towards (+) or (-) without
releasing the brake pedal. For vehicles with ro-
botised transmission, where the Hill Holder func-
tion is present, if the engine cuts out automati-
cally whilst on a hill, it is advisable to restart it
by moving the gear lever to (+) or (-) without re-
leasing the brake pedal to make the Hill Holder
function – which is only active when the engine
is running – available.
WARNING
If you want to prioritise climate comfort,
the Start&Stop system can be disabled to
allow continuous operation of the climate control
system.
