INTELLIGENT STOP/START
The Intelligent stop/start system is designed to
improve fuel efficiency and is automatically
activated when the ignition is turned on. Unless
it is required to support other vehicle systems,
the engine will turn off if the vehicle is stopped,
for example at traffic lights. When the brake
pedal is released and a drive gear is selected,
the engine will restart automatically.
During operation of the Intelligent stop/start
system a warning lamp will illuminate. See 47,
INTELLIGENT STOP/START (GREEN).
To activate an automatic engine stop:
Stop the vehicle from a speed greater than
4 km/h (2.5 mph) and apply sufficient
brake pressure to make sure the vehicle is
stationary. For manual transmissions,
neutral must also be selected and the
clutch pedal fully released.
Alternatively, while stationary, select
neutral. Also fully release the clutch pedal
for manual transmissions.
To activate an automatic engine restart release
the brake pedal with Drive (D) or Sport (S)
selected. For manual transmissions, the engine
will restart when the clutch pedal is fully
pressed, prior to engaging a gear.
The engine will also restart if one of the
following occurs:
Intelligent stop/start is deactivated.
The accelerator pedal is pressed.
An automatic transmission shift paddle is
used to select a gear.
Reverse gear is selected.

The vehicle’s speed exceeds approximately
1 km/h (0.5 mph).

temperature.
The driver’s seat belt is not fastened.
The climate control system demand
requires the engine to be running (for
example, in Defrost mode).
