The START-STOPsystem (hereinafter referred to only as system) saves fuel

and reduces harmful emissions and CO

discharge.

If the system determine that the engine is not needed when the vehicle stops

(e.g. at the traffic lights), it turns off the engine and starts it again when mov-

ing off.

Operation

Fig. 80

Display

For the system-dependent automatic engine shut-down when stopping to op-

erate, the following conditions must be met.

For vehicles with manual transmission, the shift lever is in the neutral po-

sition and the clutch pedal is not depressed.

For vehicles with automatic transmission the brake pedal is to be de-

pressed.

The driver's door is closed.

The driver has fastened the seat belt.

The bonnet is closed.

The driving speed was higher than 4 km/h after the last stop.

Some additional conditions for the system to function correctly cannot be in-

fluenced or recognised by the driver. Therefore, the system can react differ-

ently in situations which are identical from the driver's perspective.

The information as to whether the conditions are met for the automatic en-

gine shut-off, are shown in the display » Fig. 80.

The motor is automatically switched off.

The engine is not turned off when you stop (the conditions for the auto-

matic motor shut-down are not met).

Reasons for the engine running

Running the engine can be essential, for the following reasons.

›

The engine temperature for the proper function of the system has not yet

been reached.

›

The charge state of the vehicle battery is too low.

›

The current consumption is too high.

›

High air-conditioning or heating capacity (high fan speed, big difference be-

tween the desired and actual interior temperature).

When the engine is shut-down automatically and the system detects that the

engine is required such as when the brake pedal is pressed repeatedly then

the system automatically starts the engine.

Note

■

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.

■

If the driver's seat belt is removed for more than approx. 30 seconds or the

driver's door is opened during stop mode, the engine will have to be started

manually.

■

No automatic engine shut-down takes place when a vehicle with automatic

transmission is moving at low speed (e.g. during a traffic jam) and remains sta-

tionary after pressing the brake pedal lightly. Automatic engine shutdown

takes place if you press the brake pedal down with more force.

■

For vehicles with automatic transmission there is no automatic engine shut-

down when the system detects a manoeuvring action due to a large steering

angle.

I bought my 2016 Skoda Citigo two months ago and can't find out why it will suddenly ping for no obvious reason, some times pining three or four time in a row. My partner noticed the numbers 1-5 with an arrow coming up on the right hand side of the odometer but we can't find out what they or the mysterious pinging is. Please can you help. Thank you Submitted on 15-9-2022 at 10:11
