Automatic Engine Start/Stop

Function

The principle

The automatic engine start-stop function helps

save fuel. For this purpose, the system switches

off the combustion engine during a stop, e. g. in

a traffic jam or at traffic lights. The ignition re‐

mains switched on. As soon as the brake pedal

is released or when accelerating while Auto Hold

is activated, the combustion engine starts auto‐

matically.

Automatic operation

The automatic engine start-stop function is op‐

erational after each engine start.

It is activated:

▷ Starting at approx. 5 mph/approx. 8 km/h af‐

ter an engine start using the Start/Stop but‐

ton.

▷ Starting at approx. 1 mph/approx. 2 km/h af‐

ter an automatic engine start.
