The engine does not shut down when the vehicle stops, if e.g. the following
applies.
▶
The engine temperature for the proper function of the system has not yet
been reached.
▶
The charge state of the vehicle battery is too low.
▶
The current consumption is too high.
▶
High air conditioning or heating output (high fan speed, big difference be-
tween the desired and actual interior temperature).
If the engine has shut down automatically but the system detects that the en-
gine is required to run (e.g. if the brake pedal is pressed repeatedly) then the
system automatically starts up the engine.
If there is a system fault, the following message will appear in the display of
the instrument cluster. Seek help from a specialist garage.
Note
If the driver's seat belt is removed for more than 30 seconds or the driver's
■
door is opened after the engine has switched off automatically, the engine will
have to be restarted manually.

■
transmission is moving at low speed (e.g. during a traffic jam) and remains sta-
tionary after pressing the brake pedal lightly. Automatic engine shutdown
takes place if you press the brake pedal down with more force.
For vehicles with automatic transmission there is no automatic engine shut-
■
down when the system detects a manoeuvring action due to a large steering
angle.
