and
– the clutch pedal is released.

assistance is no longer op-
erational.

vehicle, you must switch
off the ignition (please see
section on “Starting, stop-
ping the engine”).
If you get out of the vehicle, a beep
notifies you that the engine is on
standby and has not been switched
off.
This system enables a reduced fuel
consumption and lower greenhouse
gas emissions.
The system is activated automatically
when the vehicle is started.
While driving, the system stops the
engine (standby) when the vehicle is
at a standstill (traffic jam, traffic lights,
etc).
