3. Release the clutch pedal.
4. Release the accelerator pedal.
The system may not shut down the engine
under certain conditions, for example:
• Low battery charge.
• The outside temperature is too low or
too high.
• The driver door has been opened.
• Low engine operating temperature.
• The heated windshield or heated rear
window is switched on.
• During regeneration of the Diesel
Particulate Filter.
To Restart the Engine
Depress the clutch pedal.
Note: The transmission selector lever must
be in neutral. If the transmission selector
lever is not in neutral, the Start-Stop
indicator will flash and a message will be
shown in the display.
The system may request an engine restart
under certain conditions, for example:
• Low battery charge.
• The heated windshield or heated rear
window is switched on.
• Your vehicle has started moving (for
example, rolling downhill).
AUTO-START-STOP
Note: For vehicles with Start-Stop the
battery requirement is different. You must
replace the vehicle battery with one of
exactly the same specification.
The system reduces fuel consumption and
CO2 emissions by shutting down the
engine when your vehicle is idling, for
example at traffic lights. The engine will
restart when you press the clutch pedal
and when required by a vehicle system, for
example to recharge the battery.
To obtain maximum benefit from the
system, move the transmission selector
lever to neutral and release the clutch
pedal during any stop of longer than three
seconds.
Using Start-Stop
WARNINGS
The engine may restart
automatically if required by the
system. It will only automatically
restart when one of the pedals is pressed.
If no pedal is pressed, the Start-Stop
indicator will flash and a message will be
shown in the display.
Switch the ignition off before
opening the hood or carrying out any
maintenance.
Always switch the ignition off before
leaving your vehicle, as the system
may have shut down the engine but
the ignition will still be live.
The system may not function if you
leave extra loads connected with the
ignition off.
Note: The system only operates when the
engine is warm and the outside temperature
is less than 104°F (40°C).
Note: If you stall the engine and then
depress the clutch pedal within five
seconds, the system will automatically
restart the engine.
Note: The Start-Stop indicator will
illuminate green when the engine shuts
down. See Warning Lamps and Indicators
(page 52).
Note: If the system detects a malfunction,
it will switch off. The OFF lamp on the
switch will illuminate continuously. If this
remains on after an ignition cycle, have your
vehicle checked by an authorized dealer.
