| Is it safe to shut off the engine? |
| Safety is provided by sophisticated electronics. |
 | If the vehicle starts to move, the engine is started to ensure that servo assistance for the steering and brakes is maintained. In all other cases the engine does not re-start until the clutch pedal is fully depressed. | | If the battery voltage is low or if an attempt by the system to start the engine has failed, the ECO-Start function is deactivated. | | In addition, the system’s safety logic checks whether the bonnet is closed to make sure that no one can be injured if the engine suddenly starts. | | To avoid cold starts and also overheating, the system only operates at coolant temperatures of between 40°C and 100°C. | | The comfort of the vehicle’s occupants is also taken into account: when the outside temperature is below freezing point, the engine is not switched off. |
