Fonction Stop and Start (XEF - Alpine)
STOP AND START FUNCTION (2/4)
The engine must be switched off for
refuelling (and not just on standby
for vehicles equipped with the Stop
and Start) function: you must switch
off the ignition (please refer to the
information on “Starting and stop-
ping the engine” in Section 2).
Preventing the engine from
standing by
In certain situations, such as negotiat-
ing a crossroads for instance, it is pos-
sible (with the system activated) to keep
the engine running so as to be ready to
move off quickly.
Keep the vehicle stationary without
pressing too hard on the brake pedal.

engine standby

or M engaged;

Special note: depending on the vehi-
cle, if you switch off the ignition when
the engine is on standby, the warning

onds on the instrument panel.
