The engine automatically restarts - START mode - as soon as the driver indicates the intention of moving off again.Primarily designed for urban use, the function is intended to reduce fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.The function does not affect the functionalities of the vehicle, in particular the braking.Deactivation/ReactivationThe function is activated by default when the ignition is switched on.The settings are changed via the Driving/Vehicle touch screen menu.A message on the instrument panel confirms the change of status.When the function is deactivated, if the engine was in standby, it restarts immediately.Associated indicator lampsFunction activated.
