vehicle has stopped, e.g. at a traffic light or in heavy traffic, and then starts
it again automatically when needed.
The Start/Stop function reduces fuel consumption, which helps to reduce exhaust
emissions.
The system makes it possible to drive more economically and climate-smart by
letting the engine auto-stop when appropriate.
There is a function button for Eco drive mode in the center display's Function

may damage it...
