The engine will restart without releasing the brake pedal (Xtronic transmission models) or without depressing the clutch pedal (MT models) while the Stop/Start System is activated under the following conditions:

  • When the brake pedal is released on sloping roads and the vehicle is moved.

  • When the parking brake is released when the transmission is in the N (Neutral) position and the brake pedal is not depressed.

  • When the transmission is placed in the R (Reverse) position. (Xtronic transmission models)

  • When D (Drive) is selected from P (Park) or N (Neutral) during a Stop/Start system stop in an Xtronic transmission vehicle.

  • When the steering wheel is operated (Xtronic transmission vehicle vehicles without Mild Hybrid Technology).

The engine will restart without releasing the brake pedal while the Coasting Stop/Start system (available with Mild Hybrid Technology (where fitted) together with Xtronic transmission only) is activated under the following conditions

  • When the vehicle speed is more than 18 km/h (12 MPH).

  • When the transmission is not in the D (Drive) position.

  • When the engine bonnet is open.

The following conditions will prevent the Stop/Start System from automatically restarting the engine. Starting the engine with the ignition switch is then necessary

  • When the engine bonnet is open.

  • When the driver's seat belt is unfastened and the driver's door is opened (MT models).

Use this system while waiting at traffic lights, etc. When the vehicle is stopped for long periods of time, turn off the engine.

When the engine is stopped by the Stop/Start System, heating, cooling and dehumidifying functions can become less effective. To avoid this, turn the Stop/Start System off by pressing the Stop/Start System OFF switch.

The Stop/Start System is always engaged at the start of a journey (once the engine has been started). The engine is automatically stopped and restarted during the journey if conditions are suitable.
