Nissan X-Trail 2024 Owners Manual
7.9.1.8. Stop/Start System
The Stop/Start System is designed to prevent unnecessary fuel consumption, exhaust emissions, and noise during a journey.
There are two functions for the Stop/Start System, the regular Stop/Start System and the Stop/Start System before the vehicle halt.
When you stop the vehicle with the brake pedal depressed the engine is turned off automatically. (Stop/Start System)
When the vehicle slows to approximately 18 km/h (11 MPH) with the brake pedal depressed, the engine is turned off automatically. (Stop/Start System before the vehicle halt)
When you release the brake pedal, the engine is automatically turned on.
The engine may restart automatically if required by the Stop/Start System.
Place the ignition switch in the OFF position before opening the bonnet or performing any maintenance. Failure to do so may result in serious injuries due to automatic engine restart.
Always place the ignition switch in the OFF position before leaving your vehicle, as the system may have turned the engine off, but the ignition will still be on and automatic restart may occur.
Failure to do this may result in a flat battery.
For model with Stop/Start System, use the special battery that is enhanced in regard to the charge-discharge capacity and life performance. Avoid using a non-special battery for the Stop/Start System, as this may cause early deterioration of the battery or a malfunction of the Stop/Start System. For the battery, it is recommended to use Genuine NISSAN parts. For more information, contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified worksho
The Stop/Start System or the Stop/Start System before the vehicle halt will not activate under the following conditions:

when the front defogger switch is on.
when the temperature inside the vehicle is too hot. (When the air conditioner is off, the Stop/Start System will operate.)
when the temperature inside the vehicle is too low. (When the fan speed control is OFF, the Stop/Start System will operate.)
when the Stop/Start OFF switch is turned on.

when stopping the vehicle on steep sloping roads.
The Stop/Start System before the vehicle halt will not activate under the following conditions:
when the vehicle speed is above 18 km/h (11 MPH).
when the shift lever is placed in other than D (Drive) position.

after the 12-volt battery (main) is replaced or after the terminal of 12-volt battery (main) is disconnected for extended period of time.
While the Stop/Start or the Stop/Start System before the vehicle halt activates, the engine restarts running automatically under at least one of the following conditions:
the driver's seat belt is unfastened, or the driver's door is open.
the battery voltage becomes low (due to electrical load from other vehicle systems like headlights, heaters, etc., or auxiliary devices connected to the 12–volt socket inside the vehicle).
the vehicle speed is above about 2 km/h (1 MPH).
when the front defogger is operated.
when the temperature inside the vehicle is too hot. (When the air conditioner is off, the Stop/Start System will operate.)
when the temperature inside the vehicle is too low. (When the fan speed control is OFF, the Stop/Start System will operate.)
when the front defogger is turned on.
when more than 3 minutes have elapsed since engine was stopped.
when the accelerator pedal is depressed.
when the battery capacity is low.
when the power consumption is high.
when the Stop/Start OFF switch is turned on.
when the ProPILOT Assist system is set to operate (the engine may not start depending on the amount of brake pedal depression) (where fitted).
when the ProPILOT Assist system is activated and the driver operates the system to start the vehicle (where fitted).
when the ProPILOT Assist system is activated and the vehicle ahead is started (where fitted).
when the negative pressure of the brake system is not sufficiently applied by depressing the brake pedal several times.
While the Stop/Start or the Stop/Start System before the vehicle halt activate, the engine may restart when the Intelligent Key is not in the vehicle and open/close any door.
The engine will restart while the Stop/Start System activates under the following conditions:
when the vehicle starts moving on the slope as the braking force is released.
when the shift lever is placed in the R (Reverse) position.
when the brake pedal is released with the shift lever in Ds (Drive Sport), D (Drive) or N (Neutral) position.
when the shift lever is placed in Ds (Drive Sport) or D (Drive) position from N (Neutral) or P (Park) position.
the brake pedal is released when the shift lever is in the D (Drive) or N (Neutral) position and the parking brake is not applied.
the parking brake is released when the shift lever is in the N (Neutral) position and the brake pedal is not depressed.
when the paddle shifter is operated with the shift lever in D (Drive) or Ds (Drive Sport) position.
The following condition will prevent the Stop/Start System from automatically restarting the engine. Starting the engine with the ignition switch operation is then necessary:
the bonnet is open.
The engine will restart while the Stop/Start System before the vehicle halt activates under the following conditions:
when the vehicle speed becomes approximately 18 km/h (11 MPH).
when the shift lever is placed in other than D (Drive) position.
when the bonnet opening is detected.
when the paddle shifter is operated with the shift lever in D (Drive) position.
If the Intelligent Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection system activates while the Stop/Start System before the vehicle halt is activating, the engine will not restart while travelling. The engine will restart after the vehicle is stopped.
when the steering wheel is operated while the Stop/Start system activates, the steering wheel operation may become heavy. But this is not a malfunction.
Use this system while waiting at stoplight, 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 will be deactivated. To avoid the air conditioning functions from being deactivated, turn off the Stop/Start mode by pressing the Stop/Start OFF switch.
