To take effect, this deactivation must be carried
out after each time the ignition is switched off.
Reactivating the interior volumetric
and anti-tilt monitoring
► Deactivate the exterior perimeter monitoring by unlocking the vehicle using the remote control
or the Keyless Entry and Starting system.

Opening the bonnet
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to avoid
any risk of injury caused by the engine
restarting automatically.
Driving on flooded roads
Before entering into a flooded area, it is
strongly recommended that you deactivate
the Stop & Start system.
For more information on Driving
recommendations, particularly on flooded
roads, refer to the corresponding section.
Operation
Main conditions for operation
– The driver ’s door must be closed.– The driver's seat belt must be fastened.– The state of charge of the battery must be sufficient.– The temperature of the engine must be within its nominal operating range.– The outside temperature must be between 0°C and 35°C.
Putting the engine into standby
(STOP mode)
The engine automatically enters standby mode
as soon as the driver indicates their intention to
stop.
– With a manual gearbox: with the gear lever in
neutral and the clutch pedal released.
– With an automatic gearbox: with the gear
selector in position D or M, the brake pedal
depressed until the vehicle stops or the gear
selector in position N, with the vehicle stationary.
Time counter
A time counter adds up the time spent in standby
during the journey. It is reset to zero every time
the ignition is switched on.
Special cases:
The engine will not go into standby if all of the
conditions for operation are not met and in the
following cases.
– Steep slope (ascending or descending).– Vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph (10 km/h) since the last engine start (with the key or the
“START/STOP” button).
– Needed to maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment.– Demisting active.– Braking assistance being used.In these cases, this indicator lamp flashes for a few seconds, then goes off.
After the engine has restarted, STOP
mode is not available until the vehicle
has reached a speed of 5 mph (8 km/h).
During parking manoeuvres, STOP mode
is not available for a few seconds after
coming out of reverse gear or turning the
steering wheel.
Engine restarting (START mode)
The engine automatically restarts as soon as the
driver indicates the intention of moving off again.
► With a manual gearbox : with the clutch
pedal fully depressed.
► With an automatic gearbox :• With the selector in position D or M: with the
brake pedal released.
• With the selector in position N and the brake
pedal released: with the selector at D or M.
• With the selector in position P and the brake
pedal depressed: with the selector at R, N,
D or M.
• Reverse gear engaged.
Special cases
The engine will restart automatically if all
conditions for operation are met again and in the
following cases.
– Vehicle speed exceeds 2 mph (3 km/h).– Some specific conditions (braking assistance, air conditioning setting, etc.).In these cases, this indicator lamp flashes for a few seconds, then goes off.
Malfunctions
In the event of a malfunction, the button’s
indicator lamp flashes briefly, then remains on.

Under-inflation detection
This system automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
It compares the information given by the wheel
speed sensors with reference values, which
must be reinitialised every time the tyre
pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one or
more tyres.
Under-inflation detection does not
replace the need for vigilance on the part
of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
regularly check the tyre pressures (including
the spare wheel) as well as before a long
journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres, particularly
in adverse conditions (heavy load, high
speed, long journey):
– worsens road-holding.– lengthens braking distances.
– causes premature wear of the tyres.– increases fuel consumption.
The inflation pressures defined for the vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on the Identification
markings, refer to the corresponding section.
Checking tyre pressures
This check should be done when the
tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or
after a journey of less than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate speeds).
Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures
shown on the label.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow
chains.
Under-inflation alert
This is signalled by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and, depending on equipment, the
display of a message.
► Reduce speed immediately , avoid excessive steering movements and avoid sudden braking.► Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not rely on just a visual check.
► Using a compressor , such as the one in the temporary puncture repair kit, check the
pressures of the four tyres when cold.
► If it is not possible to make this check immediately, drive carefully at reduced speed.
