Control of the vehicleNever coast with engine not
running (except during Autostop)
Many systems will not function in this
situation ( e.g. brake servo unit, power
steering). Driving in this manner is a
danger to yourself and others. All
systems function during an Autostop,
but there will be a controlled reduction
in power steering assist and vehicle
speed is reduced.
Stop-start system 3 125.
Pedals

uninhibited, there must be no mats in the area of the pedals.SteeringCaution

full lock when the vehicle is
stationary, as this may damage
the power steering pump.

because the engine stops or due to a system malfunction, the vehicle can
be steered but may require increased
effort.

the first few journeys.
During the first drive, smoke may
occur because of wax and oil
evaporating off the exhaust system.

while after the first drive and avoid
inhaling the fumes.
During the running-in period fuel and engine oil consumption may be
higher and the cleaning process of the diesel particle filter may take
place more often. Autostop may be
inhibited to allow for charging of the
battery.
