Vehicle battery discharge protection
To ensure reliable engine restarts,
several vehicle battery discharge
protection features are implemented
as part of the stop-start system.
Restart of the engine by the
driver
Depress the clutch pedal to restart the
engine.
If the selector lever has been shifted
out of neutral (manual transmission)
or N (manual transmission
automated) or other conditions are
not met, start using the ignition key.
The green control indicator Ï will
extinguish in the instrument cluster
when the engine is restarted.
If the selector lever is shifted out of
neutral (manual transmission) or N
(manual transmission automated) before depressing the clutch first, a
restart will not take place.Restart of the engine by the
stop-start system
The selector lever must be in neutral
(manual transmission) or N (manual
transmission automated) to enable an
automatic restart.
If one of the following conditions
occurs during an Autostop, the
engine will be restarted automatically by the stop-start system. Controlindicator Ï will flash green in the
instrument cluster during an
automatic engine restart.
■ The stop-start system is manually deactivated
■ the bonnet is opened
■ the driver's seat belt is unfastened and the driver's door is opened
■ the engine temperature is too low
■ the vehicle battery is discharged
■ the brake vacuum is not sufficient
■ the vehicle starts to move
■ the defrosting function is activated■ the climate control system requests
an engine start
■ the predetermined timing has been
exceeded
If an electrical accessory, e.g. a
portable CD player, is connected to
the power outlet, a brief power drop
during restart might be noticeable.
If the Infotainment system is active,
audio sound may briefly be reduced
or interrupted during the restart.

yellow, there is a fault in the stop-start
system 3 83. Seek the assistance of
a workshop.
