The stop/start function works on a fly wheel type arrangement in conjuction with the starter. If you have not made suficient movement it will stop, you will see a little guage that looks lika a fuel guage with off and ready on it. The neddle has to be at the ready for the S/S to work properly. if not, it will show that symbol you have and you then have to restart the engine. Just turn the A off, it is a gimmick. You can have your dealer turn it off perminently. If you read the manual it states continuous use of this function can cause premiture failure of some components.
