Subaru Forester: Starting and operating / Auto Start Stop system

automatically stop and restart the engine
when the vehicle is stationary for a short

light or in a traffic jam) after the engine has
warmed up. The system operates in order
to reduce fuel consumption, exhaust emissions
and undesired idling noise.
