STOP AND START FUNCTION (1/4)
This system enables a reduced fuel 
consumption and lower greenhouse 
gas emissions. The system is acti-
vated automatically when the vehicle is 
started. While driving, the system stops 
the engine (standby) when the vehicle 
is at a standstill (traffic jam, traffic lights, 
etc).
Conditions for engine 
standby
The vehicle has set off from where it 
was parked;
For vehicles equipped with auto-
matic gearboxes:
–  the gearbox is in position D  or N;
and
–  the brake pedal is depressed (suffi-ciently hard);
and
– the accelerator pedal is not de- pressed;
and
– the speed is zero for around  1 second.
The engine remains on standby if posi-
tion P is selected, or if position N is se-
lected with the handbrake engaged and 
the brake pedal released. For vehicles equipped with manual 
gearboxes:
–  the gearbox is in neutral;
and
–  The clutch pedal is released. 
  If the warning light 
 flashes, 
this means that the clutch pedal is 
not sufficiently released;
and
–  the vehicle speed is less than ap- proximately 7 mph (3 km/h).
In all vehicles, the warning light 
  
on the instrument panel is lit when the 
engine is on standby.
The vehicle equipment remain opera-
tional while the engine is stopped.
If the engine stalls while the system 
is in operation, pressing the clutch 
pedal right down will start it again.
Before getting out of the 
vehicle, you must switch 
off the ignition by pressing 
the engine stop (please see 
“Starting, stopping the engine”).
Keep your vehicle station-
ary when the engine is 
on standby (shown by the 
warning light 
 on the 
instrument panel).
Engine on standby - braking 
assistance is no longer op-
erational.

standing by
In certain situations, such as negotiat-
ing a crossroads for instance, it is pos-
sible to keep the engine running so as 
to be ready to move off quickly.
For vehicles equipped with auto-
matic gearboxes:
Keep the vehicle stationary without 
pressing too hard on the brake pedal
For vehicles equipped with manual 
gearboxes:
Keep the clutch pedal pressed right 
down
Conditions for coming out of 
engine standby

When stationary, and de-
pending on the slope and/or 
vehicle load, it may be ne-
cessary to pull up the hand-
brake at least two extra notches and 
engage a gear (1
st or reverse gear) 
for vehicles with a manual gearbox 
or position  P for vehicles with an au-
tomatic gearbox.
Make sure that the hand-
brake is fully released when 
driving (red indicator light 
off), otherwise overheating, 
or even damage, may occur.
An impact to the under-
side of the vehicle while 
manoeuvring (e.g.: stri-
king a post, raised kerb or 
other street furniture) may result in 
damage to the vehicle (e.g.: defor-
mation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have 
your vehicle checked by an appro-
ved Dealer.
