Start/Stop
With the Start/Stop function, the engine
switches off temporarily when the car has stop-
ped e.g. at traffic lights or in a traffic queue, and
then starts again automatically when the journey
is resumed.
Start/Stop is one of several energy-saving func-
tions intended to reduce fuel consumption, which
in turn helps to reduce exhaust emissions.
The system makes it possible to adopt an envi-
ronmentally-conscious driving style by allowing
the car to engine auto-stop when possible.

Using the Start/Stop function
The Start/Stop function temporarily switches off
the engine when stationary and then restarts it
automatically when the journey is resumed.
The Start/Stop function is available when the
engine is started and can be activated if certain
conditions have been met. The driver display indi-
cates whether the function is available, active or
unavailable, see heading "Symbols in driver dis-
play" below.
All of the car's normal systems such as lighting,
radio, etc. work normally, even when the engine is
auto-stopped. However, some equipment may
have its output temporarily reduced, e.g. the cli-
mate control system's fan speed or extremely
high volume on the audio system.
