Stop & StartGoing into engine
STOP mode
If your vehicle has a manual gearbox, its
speed must be below 12 mph (20 km/h) or
stationary (depending on engine); the "
eCo"
i
ndicator lamp comes on in the instrument
panel and the engine goes into standby
automatically when you place the gear lever in
neutral and you release the clutch pedal.
For your comfort, during parking
manoeuvres, ST
oP m
ode is not
available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear.
Stop & Start 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. If your vehicle is fitted with
Stop & Start, a time counter
calculates the time spent in
ST
oP m
ode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition is
switched on.
Stop & Start time counter
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
t emporarily into standby - SToP m ode - 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.
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox
and the vehicle is stationary, the "
eCo"
i
ndicator lamp comes on and the engine goes
into standby automatically when you press
the brake pedal or place the gear selector in
position N .
If your vehicle has an electronic gearbox and
the vehicle's speed is below 5 mph (8 km/h),
the "
eCo" i
ndicator lamp comes on and the
engine goes into standby automatically when
you press the brake pedal or place the gear
selector in position N . (minutes / seconds or hours / minutes)
Never refuel with the engine in ST
oP
m
ode; you must switch off the ignition
with the button.

Going into engine
START mode
START mode is invoked automatically in
certain temporary conditions (examples:
battery charge, engine temperature, braking
assistance, air conditioning setting) to assure
correct operation of the system and mainly
when:
-
y
ou open the driver's door,
-
y
ou open a sliding side door,
-
y
ou unfasten the driver's seat belt,
-
t
he speed of the vehicle exceeds 15 mph
(25 km/h) or 2 mph (3 km/h) (depending on
the engine) with a manual gearbox,
-
t
he speed of the vehicle exceeds 2 mph
(3
km/h) with an automatic gearbox,
Special cases: START invoked
automatically
In this case the "ECO" warning
lamp flashes for a few seconds, then
goes
off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
If your vehicle has a manual gearbox, the
"
ECO " indicator lamp goes off in the instrument
panel and the engine restarts automatically
when you fully depress the clutch pedal.
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox, the
" ECO " lamp goes off in the instrument panel
and the engine restarts automatically when:
-
y
ou release the brake pedal with the gear
selector in position D or M ,
-
y
ou are in position N with the brake pedal
released and you move the gear selector to
position D or M ,
-
y
ou engage reverse.
If your vehicle has an electronic gearbox, the
" ECO " lamp goes off in the instrument panel
and the engine restarts automatically when:
-
y
ou release the brake pedal with the gear
selector in position A ou M ,
-
y
ou are in position N with the brake pedal
released and you move the gear selector to
position A or M ,
-
y
ou enegage reverse.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
SToP mode is not invoked in certain temporary
conditions (examples: battery charge, engine
temperature, braking assistance, ambient
temperature) to assure correct operation of the
system and mainly when:
-
t
he vehicle is on a steep slope (rising or
falling),
-
t
he driver's door is open,
-
a s
liding side 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.In this case, the "ECO" warning

This memorisation is in addition to the display
of Speed limit recognition .
The driver can choose to adapt the speed
setting to the speed limit suggested, by
pressing the memorisation button at the speed
limiter controls, with the standard cruise control
or the dynamic cruise control.
This speed setting then replaces the previous
speed setting for the speed limiter and/or
dynamic cruise control. For more information on the
