Overrun cut-off
The fuel supply is automatically cut off

accelerator is released.
Stop-start system
The stop-start system helps to save
fuel and to reduce the exhaust
emission. When conditions allow, it
switches off the engine as soon as the
vehicle is at low speed or standstill,
e.g. at a traffic light or in a traffic jam.
It starts the engine automatically as
soon as the clutch is depressed. A
battery sensor ensures that an
Autostop is only performed if the
battery is sufficiently charged for a
restart.

soon as the engine is started, the

standstill, activate an Autostop as
