NOTE: BMW uses the designation MSA for the Automatic Engine Start/Stop function.
NOTE: On vehicles with an indicator light on the MSA button: Light ON means the auto stop function is deactiated.

Some vehicles may be equipped with an MSA (Automatic Engine Start/Stop) button. The MSA button will deactivate the Automatic Engine Start/Stop function, preventing the engine from automatically shutting-down while the vehicle is not moving. See Fig 1
