Stop & Start
Principle
The "ECO" lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the engine goes
into standby.
The 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.
