START&STOP SYSTEM

FOREWORD

The Start&Stop device automatically stops the engine each
time the vehicle is stationary and starts it again when the
driver wants to move off.

This improves the efficiency of the vehicle by reducing fu-
el consumption, the emission of harmful gases and noise
pollution.

The system is activated each time the vehicle is started.

OPERATING MODES

Engine cut-out mode

WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION

With the vehicle stationary, the engine cuts out with the
gearbox in neutral and the clutch pedal released.

GENERAL WARNINGS
❒ When parking, pay special attention to obstacles that

may be set above or below the sensors.

❒ Sometimes, objects located very near the rear of the

vehicle are not detected and could therefore damage
the vehicle or be damaged themselves.

❒ The signals sent out by the sensors can be altered by

dirt, snow or ice deposited on the sensors or by ul-
trasound systems (e.g. truck pneumatic brakes or pneu-
matic drills) near the vehicle.

❒ The parking sensors work properly with the swing

doors closed. If they are open, they can cause the sys-
tem to send false signals: always close the rear doors.

The ultimate responsibility when parking
and carrying out other dangerous ma-

noeuvres still rests with the driver. When park-
ing, make sure that no-one is standing in the area,
especially children or animals. Parking sensors are
designed to assist drivers; however, you must al-
ways concentrate fully during potentially danger-
ous manoeuvres, even if carried out at low speeds.
