Stop And Start Function - Renault Captur User Manual

STOP AND START FUNCTION

This system enables a reduced fuel
consumption and lower greenhouse
gas emissions. The system is acti-
vated automatically when the vehicle
is started. During driving, the system
stops the engine (standby) when the
vehicle comes to a stop or is moving
at a slow speed (depending on the ve-

hicle). The warning light is dis-
played on the instrument panel.
Conditions of standby at low
speed

was parked;
For vehicles equipped with auto-
matic gearboxes:
– the gearbox is in position D, M or N;
and
– the brake pedal is depressed (suffi-
ciently hard);

If the warning light flashes,
this means that the brake pedal is
not sufficiently pressed;
and
– the accelerator pedal is not de-
pressed;

and
– the speed is zero or, depending on
the vehicle, as soon as the speed is
lower than a threshold specific to the

The engine remains on standby if posi-
tion P is selected, or if position N is se-
lected with the handbrake engaged and
the brake pedal released.
For vehicles equipped with manual
gearboxes:
– the gearbox is in neutral;
and
– the clutch pedal is released. If the


For all vehicles:

Warning light on the instru-
ment panel is lit when the engine is on
standby.
The vehicle equipment remain opera-
tional while the engine is stopped.
When the engine switches to standby,
the steering assistance may no longer
be operational.
In this case it becomes operational
again when the engine is no longer on
standby or the speed exceeds approxi-
mately 1 mph (1 km/h) (downhill, slope
etc.).
If the engine is put in
standby, the electronic
parking brake (depending
on the vehicle) is not ap-
plied automatically.
Keep your vehicle station-
ary when the engine is
on standby (shown by the

warning light
instrument panel).
The engine MUST be
stopped (not put in standby)
before leaving the vehicle.
