START&STOP SYSTEM(for versions/markets, where provided)
FOREWORD
The Start&Stop device automatically stops
the engine each time the vehicle is sta-
tionary and starts it again when the driver
wants to move off.
This improves the efficiency of the vehicle
by reducing fuel consumption, the emis-
sion of harmful gases and noise pollution.
The system is activated each time the car
is started.

cuts out with the gearbox in neutral and
the clutch pedal released.With Dualogic gearbox
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The engine cuts out if the car stops with
the brake pedal pressed.

the brake pedal is not pressed, if the gear
lever is in position N.
NBThe engine can be stopped automat-
ically only after a speed of about 10 Km/h
is reached, to prevent the engine from be-
ing repeatedly stopped when driving at
walking pace.
The engine being stopped is signalled by
the warning light fig. 99on the instrument
panel, depending on the configuration.Engine restarting mode
