Stop & Start
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
the "ECO" warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
-

W

ith a manual gearbox , at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h) or vehicle stationary
(depending on the engine), when you place
the gear lever in neutral, and you release
the clutch pedal.
Never refuel with the engine in S
tO

P
mode; you must switch off the ignition
with the button. For your comfort, during parking
maoeuvres, S
tO

P mode is not
available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
S
tO

P mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering...
A slight delay between the vehicle
stopping and the engine cutting out may
be noticed.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
StOP mode is not invoked principally when:
- t he vehicle is on a steep slope (up or down),
-
t

he 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
driver,
-

t
he electric parking brake is applied or
being applied,
-

t
he engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment,
-
d

emisting is active,
-
s

ome special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system.
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start,
a time counter calculates the time spent
in S
tO

P mode during a journey.In this case, the "ECO" warning lamp
flashes for a few seconds then goes
of f.
This operation is perfectly normal.
th

e Stop & Start

system puts the engine temporarily into standby - S
tO

P mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...).
th

e engine restarts automatically - S
tA

R
t

mode - as soon as you want to move off.
t
h

e 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.

Park Assist
this system provides active assistance with
parking, detecting a parking space then
controlling the steering to park in the space.
It controls the steering while the driver
manages the accelerator, brakes, gears and
clutch (manual gearbox). During phases of
entry into and exit from a parking space, the
system provides visual and audible information
to the driver in order to make the manoeuvres
safe. It may be necessary to move for wards
and backwards more than once.During a manoeuvre the steering wheel
turns quickly: do not hold the steering
wheel, do not place your hand between
the spokes of the steering wheel and
take care with loose and bulky clothing,
scarves, handbags...
t
h
ere is a risk of
injury.
When Park Assist is activated, it
prevents a change to S
tO

P mode of
Stop & Start. In S
tO

P mode, activation
of Park Assist restarts the engine.
th

e Park Assist system cannot in any
circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
th

e driver must remain in control
of their vehicle ensuring that the
space remains clear throughout the
manoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors
may not detect small obstacles located
in their blind spots.
th

e driver can take control at any time by
gripping the steering wheel.th e Park Assist system provides
assistance for the following
manoeuvres:
-
e

ntry into a parallel parking space
-
e

xit from a parallel parking space
-
b

ay parking
th
e Park Assist system takes control
of the power steering for a maximum
of 4 manoeuvre cycles.
t
h
e function
is deactivated after these 4 cycles.
If you think that your vehicle is not
positioned correctly, you should then
take control of the steering to carry out
the manoeuvre.
th

e Park Assist system cannot work
with the engine off.

are no longer controlled by
the system: you must take
control of the steering.
th

manoeuvres are controlled
by the system: do not touch
the steering wheel.th e park sensors function is not
available during parking space
measurement. It intervenes later when
manoeuvring to warn you that your
vehicle is approaching an obstacle: the
audible signal becomes continuous
when the obstacle is less than thirty
centimetres away.
If you have deactivated the parking
sensors, they are automatically
reactivated during assisted parking
manoeuvres.
