Stop & Start - PEUGEOT 3008 2015 Handbook

Driving
With a manual gearbox, the arrow may be
accompanied by the gear recommended.
The system adapts its gear shift
recommendation according to the driving
conditions (slope, load, etc.) and the
driver's requirements (power, acceleration,
braking,...).
The system never suggests:
- engaging first gear,
- engaging a lower gear,
- to engage reverse.

Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during
stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams,...).
The engine restarts automatically - START
mode - as soon as you want to move off.
The restart takes place instantly, quickly and
silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions as well as the noise level when
stationary.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition with
the key or the "START/STOP" button.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
- with a manual gearbox, at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h) or vehicle stationary with
the PureTech 130 petrol and BlueHDi 115
and 120 Diesel versions, when you place
the gear lever in neutral and you release the
clutch pedal,
- with an automatic gearbox, vehicle
stationary, when you press the brake pedal
or put the gear selector in N mode.
The time counter aggregates the STOP mode
activation periods during a trip. It resets itself to
zero every time the ignition is switched on with
the key or the "START/STOP" button.
For your convenience during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available
for a few seconds after coming out of
reverse gear.
Stop & Start does not affect the operation
of vehicle systems such as braking, power
steering...
