Start/Stop* - function and operation
The Start/Stop function is activated automati-
cally when the engine is started with the key.
The Start/Stop function is acti-
vated automatically when the
engine is started with the key.

All of the car's normal systems
such as lighting, radio, etc. work as normal even
with an engine that has stopped automatically,
except that some equipment may have the func-

system's fan speed or extremely high volume on
the audio system.

whether the ECO function is activated.
When the engine is auto-stopped, the
combined instrument panel's symbol
for the Start/Stop function illuminates.
