Operation Manual

58
Your vehicle may be equipped with a "Stop & Start" system, in association with an Electronic Gearbox System; this
shuts down the engine during stopping phases (red lights, traffi c jams, temporary halts, etc.).
During these phases, your vehicle uses no fuel, emits no pollutants and is completely silent.
The engine restarts instantly when you want to move forward again.
Functioning of the "Stop & Start" system:
If you brake to stop your vehicle, the engine shuts down just before the vehicle comes to a complete halt; the green
"ECO" warning lamp lights up in the instrument panel. The engine remains shut down for as long as you keep your
foot, even lightly, on the brake pedal.
As you release the brake pedal, the engine restarts automatically and instantly. The green "ECO" warning lamp goes
out. You can then accelerate to move forward again.
