Turbo engine warm-up
Upon start-up, engine available
torque may be limited for a short time,
especially when the engine
temperature is cold. The limitation is
to allow the lubrication system to fully
protect the engine.

Vehicle shutdown

Fuel cut-off system
In the event of a collision of a certain
severity, the fuel system is cut-off and
the engine is switched off
automatically, for safety reasons. A
corresponding warning message may
also appear in the Driver Information
Centre 3 79.
Note
In addition, the vehicle is
automatically unlocked and the
interior lights are illuminated.
Turn the ignition key to position
STOP to prevent battery discharge
and seek the assistance of a
workshop immediately. Have the
vehicle checked for fuel leaks in the
engine compartment, beneath the
vehicle and near the fuel tank.
To reset the fuel cut-off system and
enable the vehicle to be driven:
1. Turn the ignition key to position
MAR 3 102
2. Fully actuate the right turn signal

9 Danger
If you can smell fuel in the vehicle,
or a fuel leak is present, have the
cause of this remedied
immediately by a workshop. Do
not reset the fuel cut-off system, to
avoid the risk of fire.
Driving and operating
Fuel system messages 3 85.

Overrun cut-off

The fuel supply is automatically cut-
off during overrun, i.e. when the
vehicle is driven with a gear engaged
but accelerator is released.
Stop-start system
The stop-start system helps to save
fuel and to reduce exhaust emissions.
When conditions allow, it switches off
the engine as soon as the vehicle is
at a low speed or at a standstill, e.g.
at a traffic light or in a traffic jam. It
starts the engine automatically as
soon as the clutch is depressed.
A battery sensor ensures that an
Autostop is only performed if the
battery is sufficiently charged for a
restart.
