ENGINE STOPPING
FAILURE CONDITIONS
With the device activated, for
reasons of comfort, limiting
emissions and safety, the engine
does not stop in certain conditions,
including:
❒ engine still cold;
❒ particularly cold external
temperatures, if the corresponding
indication is provided;
❒ battery not sufficiently charged;
❒ particulate filter regeneration in
progress (diesel engines only);
❒ driver's door not shut;
❒ driver's seat belt not fastened;
❒ reverse gear engaged (for example,
for parking manoeuvres);
❒ automatic climate control, if a
suitable thermal comfort level has not
yet been reached or MAX-DEF
function activation;
❒ during the first period of use, to
initialise the system.
In the above cases, the warning light
flashes fig. 103 and, where
available, there is a message in the
display.
RESTARTING
CONDITIONS
For reasons of comfort, limiting
harmful emissions and safety
purposes, the power unit can restart
automatically without any action by
the driver if certain conditions are
met, including:
❒ battery not sufficiently charged;
❒ reduced braking system vacuum
(e.g. if the brake pedal is pressed
repeatedly);
❒ vehicle in motion (e.g. when driving
on roads with a gradient);
❒ stopping the engine through the
Start&Stop system for more than
about three minutes.
❒ automatic climate control system for
adjusting the thermal comfort level or
to enable MAX-DEF function.
With a gear engaged, the engine
can be automatically restarted only
by fully depressing the clutch pedal.
The driver is asked to perform this
operation through the warning
light flashing in the instrument panel
fig. 103 and, where provided, the
message in the display.
N.B.: If you stall the engine, for
example by releasing off the clutch
pedal quickly when in gear, if the
Start&Stop system is activated, the
engine can be restarted by fully
depressing the clutch pedal or by
putting the gear lever into neutral.
N.B.: If the clutch is not depressed
when the three minutes have
elapsed since the engine was
stopped, the engine can only be
restarted using the key.
