Convenient starting

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2016 MINI Cooper Countryman, 2015 MINI Cooper Countryman, 2014 MINI Cooper Countryman, 2013 MINI Cooper, and 2012 MINI Cooper. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Pressing the START-STOP button initiates the starting operation. The starter motor is only activated until the engine is running. If the engine does not start, the starting operation is aborted after approx. 60 seconds. The START-STOP button only picks up drivers requests. The starting operation is carried out by the CAS control unit. The CAS only performs the engine start when all the start conditions have been met. If a precondition is no longer met during the starting operation, the starting operation is aborted.
