Stop/Start Technology works automatically, so you don’t have to make any effort or monitor battery power. Intelligent sensors can monitor vehicle and battery systems, restarting the engine when needed to meet passenger comfort requirements. This helps to maximize the frequency and duration the engine will remain in Auto Stop during normal driving conditions.
When you’re driving and your vehicle comes to a complete stop, Stop/Start Technology (if equipped) may turn off your vehicle’s engine. When this happens, the needle on the tachometer will move to the “Auto Stop” position. Under normal driving conditions, when you release the brake pedal, the engine will start automatically.
To maintain vehicle performance, conditions such as A/C, current battery charge or other reasons may cause the engine to automatically restart before you release the brake pedal.
Some vehicles have a button to turn Stop/Start off for one ignition cycle. If the vehicle is equipped with the Stop/Start deactivation switch, you can push the switch to turn off Stop/Start. Stop/Start is turned off when the LED indicator on the switch is not illuminated. To help maximize the fuel economy benefit, Stop/Start is enabled each time the vehicle is started.

No. As with the battery technology, the vehicle’s engine starting system and engine have been specifically designed to be robust to meet the extra demands of the increased Stop/Start activity.
No. When Stop/Start Technology is standard on a vehicle model, it cannot be ordered without Stop/Start. Some vehicle configurations may come without Stop/Start Technology based on specific engine choices.
Jump-starting a vehicle with Stop/Start Technology is no different than jump-starting any other vehicle that is not a hybrid or electric vehicle. See your vehicle’s Owner’s Manual for instructions on jump-starting the vehicle.
