Start-Stop function interruption
In the following situations, the Start-Stop
function will be interrupted and the engine
will automatically start:
●
The vehicle starts moving.
●
The brake pedal is pressed several times in
a row.
●
The battery has been discharged excessive-
ly.
●
The Start-Stop System is manually deacti-
vated.
●
The windscreen de-mist function is turned
on.
●
The temperature of the interior exceeds the
comfort limits (
A/C
button).
●
If the airflow is increased by more than 3
presses.
●
Temperature setting HI or LO is selected.
●
The engine coolant temperature is insuffi-
cient.
●
The alternator is faulty, for example the V-
belt has ruptured.
●
If any of the conditions described in the
previous section are not fulfilled.
WARNING
Never allow the vehicle to move with the en-
gine off for any reason. You could lose control
of your vehicle. This could cause an accident
and serious injury.
●
The brake servo does not work with the en-
gine off. You need more force to stop the vehi-
cle.
●
Power steering does not work when the en-
gine is not running. That is why it is much
more difficult to turn the steering wheel.
●
Turn off the Start-Stop system when driving
through water (fording streams, etc.).
Note
●
For vehicles with the Start-Stop function
and a manual gearbox, when the engine is
started, the clutch must be pressed.
●
When the conditions for the Start-Stop
function are not fulfilled, the instrument pan-
el displays the Start-Stop indicator dimmed.
●
If the steering wheel is turned more than
270°, it will not be possible to start the vehi-
cle again. To start the vehicle, straighten the
steering wheel so that it is turned less than
270°.
