in the instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
-

w

ith a manual gearbox , when stationary,

stationary or at speeds below 5 mph
(8

(control on N ) or when you press the brake
pedal.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the button. For your comfort, during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not
available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
functionalities of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering...
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not invoked principally when:
- the driver's door is open,
-

t
he driver's seat belt is not fastened,
-

t
he vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start by the

This operation is perfectly normal.
The Stop & Start

system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...).
The
