except during gear change or AUTO/
MANUAL mode requests.

START&STOP
SYSTEM
102) 103)46)
The Start&Stop system automatically
stops the engine whenever the car
is stationary and all the conditions for
automatic switch-off are met. The
engine is restarted when the driver
wants to move off.
In this way, the car efficiency is
increased, by reducing consumption,
dangerous gas emissions and sound
pollution.
OPERATING MODE
Stopping the engine
Versions with manual transmission
: with the car stationary, the engine
stops with the gears in neutral and the
clutch pedal released.
Versions with Dualogic
transmission: the engine stops if the
vehicle is at a standstill and the brake
pedal is pressed. This condition can be
maintained even if the brake pedal is
not depressed, if the gear lever is
in position N (Neutral).
NOTE The engine can only be stopped
automatically after exceeding about
10 km/h, to prevent the engine from
being repeatedly stopped when driving
at walking pace.The
warning light on the instrument
panel switches on to signal that the
engine has stopped.
Restarting the engine
Versions with manual transmission:
press the clutch pedal.
Versions with Dualogic
transmission: if the gear lever is in
position N (Neutral), place it in any other
gear, otherwise release the brake pedal
or move the gear lever to +, – or R.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
WARNING
INTERIOR FITTINGS
Do not travel with the storage compartments open: they may injure the front seat occupants in the event of an accident.
The cigar lighter gets extremely hot. Handle it carefully and make sure that children don’t use it: risk of fire and/or burns.
ROOF RACK/SKI RACK
After travelling for a few kilometres, check to ensure that the fixing screws for the attachments are well tightened.
Never exceed the maximum permitted loads (see chapter "Technical specifications").
Evenly distribute the load and take into account, when driving, the increased responsiveness of the vehicle to side wind.
INTERIOR
Ever use flammable products, such as petrol ether or rectified petrol to clean the inside of the car. The electrostatic charges which are
generated by rubbing during the cleaning operation may cause a fire.
Do not keep aerosol cans in the car: they might explode. Aerosol cans must not be exposed to a temperature exceeding 50°C. When the
vehicle is exposed to sunlight, the internal temperature can greatly exceed this value.
It is essential that there is nothing under the pedals: make sure the mats are lying flat and do not get in the way of the pedals.
POWER SUPPLY
Modifications or repairs to the fuel system that are not carried out correctly or do not take the system technical specifications into account
can cause malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
WARNING
ROOF RACK/SKI RACK
Fully comply with the regulations in force concerning maximum clearance.
INTERIOR
Never use alcohol, petrols and derivatives to clean the dashboard and instrument panel lens.
