What are the other advantages of this system?

• Since the engine is switched off during traffic signals/ jams, considerable amount of carbon dioxide release to the atmosphere is
avoided. This reduces global warming and thus provides us with a sustainable planet to live in.
• Ability to restart the engine by pressing the clutch pedal
• Reduces noise pollution at traffic signals
Is it possible to start the engine through the clutch pedal for the first time?

Whether the system will get activated as soon as the engine is started the first time with the ignition key?
4.
The system will get activated only after the completion of engine temperature dependent warm up period which may extend up to 15
minutes. This is to ensure better performance of the engine in terms of fuel economy and durability.

of such stops are long, it is recommended to keep the engine 'ON' and the ESS system in 'OFF' position.

6.
The system can be turned OFF by switching OFF the Stop/ Start selection switch.

7.
No, the A/C will not work. However the blower will be in operation when the ignition is ON.
What will happen if I keep the clutch continuously pressed at traffic signals/jams?

The system will not stop the engine if the clutch is continuously pressed since it indicates the driver's intention of moving the vehicle
immediately.
