START&STOP
SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
IN BRIEF
The Start&Stop system automatically
stops the engine each time the car
is stationary and starts it again when
the driver wants to move off.
In this way, the efficiency of the car is
increased, by reducing consumption,
emissions of harmful gases and
noise pollution.
OPERATING MODES

With the car stopped, the engine stops
with gearbox in neutral and clutch

NOTE The engine can only be stopped
automatically after exceeding about
10 km/h, to prevent the engine from
being repeatedly stopped when driving
at walking pace.
The fig. 81 symbol appears on the
