Recommendations
The vehicle is designed principally
to drive on tarmac roads, but it may
occasionally drive on other less
passable terrain. However, it does not
permit off-road driving:
Driving on terrain that can damage
the underbody or tear off elements (e.g.
fuel pipe, fuel cooler) by obstacles or
stones in particular
Driving on terrain with steep
gradients and poor grip
Crossing a waterway
IMPORTANT
173)
Your driving style must always be
suited to the road conditions, visibility
and traffic. The driver is, in any case,
responsible for safe driving.
COASTING
(Hybrid versions)
With the PRND command in mode D,
except in Sport mode, fully releasing
the accelerator pedal allows free-
wheeling which can save fuel. A drop in
engine speed is normal (rev counter at
idle, drop in engine noise).
STOP-START
SYSTEM
(where provided)
The Stop-Start system helps to
save fuel and to reduce the exhaust
emissions. When conditions allow, it
switches off the engine as soon as
the vehicle is at a low speed or at a
standstill, e.g. at a traffic light or in a
traffic jam.
Activation/deactivation
The Stop-Start system is available
as soon as the engine is started, the
vehicle starts-off and the conditions as
stated below in this section are fulfilled.
The deactivation and reactivation
of the Stop-Start system can be
done through the Uconnect™
10.25"/10.25" NAV settings.
Autostop
If the vehicle is at a standstill with
depressed brake pedal, Autostop is
activated automatically.
