General information
READY is displayed in the instrument cluster. If
necessary, the combustion engine starts auto‐
matically.
The combustion engine is also stopped during
the trip when rolling without acceleration or
braking. This driving condition, in which the ve‐
hicle is traveling without power and energy re‐
covery is not active, is referred to as coasting,
refer to page 113.
The combustion engine is not switched off au‐
tomatically in the following situations:
▷ The combustion engine is not at operating
temperature.

voltage battery, maximum speed, the vehicle's
capacity to accelerate, and range can vary.
For electrical driving, certain conditions, refer
to page 112, must be satisfied.
