Start/Stop* - function and operation
The Start/Stop function is activated automati-
cally when the engine is started with the key.
The Start/Stop function is
activated automatically when
the engine is started with the
key. The driver is made
aware of this by the func-
tion's symbol illuminating in
the combined instrument
panel and the On/Off button

All of the car's normal sys-
tems such as lighting, radio, etc. work as nor-
mal even with an engine that has stopped
automatically, except that some equipment
may have the function temporarily reduced,
e.g. the climate control system's fan speed or
extremely high volume on the audio system.
