“START - STOP”*
The “START-STOP” system helps you to save fuel while at the same time reducing
harmful exhaust emissions and CO2 emissions.
The function is automatically activated each time the ignition is switched on.
In the start-stop mode, the engine automatically switches to the vehicle's idle phase,
e.g. when stopped at traffic lights.
Information regarding the current state of the “START-STOP” system is indicated in the
display of the instrument cluster.
Automatic engine shut down (stop phase)
– Stop the vehicle (where necessary, apply the handbrake).
– Take the vehicle out of gear.
– Take your foot off the clutch.
Automatic engine restart (start phase).
– Push down on the clutch.
Switching the “START-STOP” system on and off
You can switch the “START STOP” system on/off by pressing the button fig. 3.
When start-stop mode is deactivated, the warning light in the button lights up.
If the vehicle is in the stop phase when manually switching off the system, the engine
starts automatically.
The “START-STOP” system is very complex. Some of the procedures are hard to check
without servicing. The general conditions for the proper functioning of the “STARTSTOP” system are listed in the following overview.

the START-STOP system
• Changes to the outdoor temperature can have an effect on the internal tempera-
ture of the vehicle battery even after several hours. If the vehicle remains outdoors for
a long time in minus temperatures or in direct sunlight, it can take several hours until
the internal temperature of the vehicle battery reaches a suitable temperature for
proper operation of the “START STOP” system.
• In some instances it may be necessary to start the engine manually with the igni-
tion key (e.g. when the seat belt is no t inserted or the driver 's door is opened for more
than 30 seconds). Follow the messages in the display of the instrument cluster.
