Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO"warninglamp
comesonintheinstrument
panel and the engine goes
intostandby:
- with a manual gearbox, at speeds
below12mph(20km/h),whenyou
put the gear lever into neutral and
release the clutch pedal,
- with a 6-speed electronic
gearbox,atspeedsbelow5mph
(8km/h),whenyoupressthebrake
pedal or put the gear lever into
position N.
Ifyourvehicleisttedwiththesystem,
atimecountercalculatesthesumof
theperiodsinSTOPmodeduringa
journey.Itrestsitselftozeroeverytime
theignitionisswitchedonwiththekey.
With a 6-speed electronic
gearbox,foryourcomfortduring
parkingmanoeuvres,STOPmode
is not available for a few seconds after
comingoutofreversegear.
STOPmodedoesnotaffectthe
functionality of the vehicle, such as
braking,powersteering,forexample.
Never refuel with the engine in
STOPmode;youmustswitchoff
theignitionwiththekey.

- somespecialconditions(battery
charge,enginetemperature,
brakingassistance,ambient
temperature...)wheretheengine
is needed to assure control of a
