and
 
is   locked   in   3rd   gear.   You   may   feel  
a

Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you can engage p osition P or N 
to   place   the   gearbox   in   neutral.

  both   cases,   apply   the   parking   brake   to
 i

mmobilise   the   vehicle.

operation
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the gear   selected   flashes   for   a   few   seconds,   then  
t

he   actual   gear   engaged   is   displayed.
It
  is   possible   to   change   from   position  d
(automatic)
  to   position   M   (manual)   at   any   time.
When
  the   vehicle   is   stationary   or   moving  
v

ery   slowly,   the   gearbox   selects   gear   M1
automatically.

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