Start & Stop Evo - Alfa Romeo STELVIO 949 Owner's Handbook Manual

It is not possible to go directly from
"Dynamic" mode to "Advanced
Efficiency" mode and vice versa. You
must always activate the "Normal" mode
first and then select the other mode.
START & STOP EVO
The Stop/Start Evo automatically stops
the engine each time the vehicle is
stationary and starts it again when the
driver wants to move off.
In this way, the vehicle efficiency is
increased, by reducing consumption,
dangerous gas emissions and sound
pollution.
OPERATING MODE
Stopping the engine
With vehicle at a standstill and brake
pedal pressed, the engine switches off if
the gear lever is in a position other than
R.
The system does not operate when the
gear lever is in R, for making parking
manoeuvres easier.
In the event of stops uphill, engine
switching off is disabled to make the "Hill
Start Assist" function available (works
only with running engine).
NOTE The engine can only be
automatically stopped after having run at
about 6 mph (10 km/h). After an
automatic restart, to stop the engine you
only need to move the vehicle (exceed a
speed of 0.3 mph (0.5 km/h)).

Engine stopping is signalled by the
symbol lighting up on the instrument
panel display.
Restarting the engine
To restart the engine, release the brake
pedal.
With brake pressed, if the gear lever is in
automatic mode - D (Drive) - the engine
can be restarted by moving the lever to R
(Reverse) or N (Neutral) or "AutoStick".
With brake pressed, if the gear lever is in
"AutoStick" mode, the engine can be
restarted by moving the lever to "+" or
"–", or R (Reverse) or N (Neutral).
When the engine has been stopped
automatically, keeping the brake pedal
pressed, the brake can be released
keeping the engine off by quickly shifting
the gear lever to P (Park).
To restart the engine, just move the lever
out of a position other than P.
