Information on automatic restarting of engine
With the Stop&Start system activated in a stopped vehicle condition, the
driver can restart the engine by:
●
releasing the brake pedal
●
UP -shifting
●
engaging reverse gear
●
pressing the accelerator pedal
Warning
If the engine is switched off accidentally and not by the Stop&Start
system, it must be restarted manually by the driver by pressing the
ENGINE START button and reengaging the gear using the shift
paddles located behind the steering wheel. This condition is indicated
on the left TFT display by the message “Press ENGINE START
button to restart”, accompanied by an acoustic signal.
For safety reasons and to guarantee comfort when the vehicle is
stationary and correct operating of the entire vehicle, the Stop&Start
system also automatically restarts the engine when:
●
the ENGINE START button on the steering wheel has been pressed
●
the function has been deactivated by pressing the button located on
the roof panel
●
the driver’s seat belt has been unfastened
●
the driver-side door has been opened
●
the “LIFT” system has been activated (if present)
●
rear screen demisting has been requested or the air conditioning and
heating system set to “low” or “max defrost”
The system also constantly monitors some of the vehicle operating
parameters (battery charge level, engine coolant temperature, catalytic
converter temperature, clutch oil temperature, vacuum level in brake
servo, climate comfort in passenger compartment, vehicle speed) so that
the engine can be automatically started in certain conditions to guarantee
safety and vehicle operating and minimise the impact on on-board climate
comfort.

automatic restarting.

indicated on the TFT display by the message “Press ENGINE START
button to restart”, accompanied by an acoustic signal.
Warning
If automatic restarting is permanently disabled, the driver must
perform a manual start by pressing the ENGINE START button and
using the shift paddles located behind the steering wheel.
