Driving
This section describes the use of the parking brake, the manual, electronic or automatic gearbox, the gear efficiency indicator and Stop & S
tart
to help reduce fuel consumption, hill start assist, the speed limiter
t
o avoid exceeding a programmed speed, cruise control to maintain a
p
rogrammed speed, the rear parking sensors to detect obstacles.
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.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
For your comfort, during parking manoeuvres, STOP mode is not
a
vailable for a few seconds after
c
oming out of reverse gear.
STOP
mode does not affect the
f
unctionality of the vehicle, such as for
example,
braking, power steering...
Never
refuel with the engine in STOP
m
ode; you must switch off the ignition
w
ith the key.
The "ECO"
