Additional Auto Start/Stop
function
Depending on the vehicle equipment and
country-specific version, the vehicle fea-
tures a variety of sensors for assessing the
traffic situation. The Auto Start/Stop func-
tion uses this information to adapt to vari-
ous traffic situations in a proactive manner.
For instance, this applies to the following
situations:
– When a situation is detected in which
the stopping time is expected to be very
short, the engine is not switched off au-
tomatically. A message appears on the
Control Display, depending on the situa-
tion.
– When a situation is detected in which
the vehicle needs to drive off immedi-
ately, the engine is started automati-
cally.
The function may be restricted if the navi-
gation data is invalid, outdated or not avail-
able, for example.
