System having a unit for actuating a stop/start unit

A control system for a motor vehicle having a combustion engine, comprising:

• a stop/start unit for said internal-combustion engine;
• a control unit for actuating said start/stop unit;
• and
• at least one first sensor for detecting at least one first parameter which is dependent on a steering wheel position of the motor vehicle;
• wherein
• the control unit actuates the stop/start unit during the operation of the vehicle, as a function of said at least one first parameter;
• the control unit deactivates at least one function of the stop/start unit when the at least one first parameter exceeds at least one first threshold value;
• the control system further comprises a time measuring device;
• and
• the control unit actuates the stop/start unit as a function of at least one detected time during a vehicle operation.

A method of controlling operation of a combustion engine in a motor vehicle having a start/stop unit for automatically starting and stopping operation of said combustion engine during operation of said motor vehicle, said method comprising:

• detecting at least one first parameter that is indicative of steering wheel position of said motor vehicle;
• and
• deactivating and activating operation of the start/stop unit as a function of said at least one first parameter;
• wherein said deactivating and activating comprises deactivating at least one function of the start/stop unit when the time derivative of the at least one first parameter exceeds at least a second threshold value.

A method of controlling operation of a combustion engine in a motor vehicle having a start/stop unit for automatically starting and stopping operation of said combustion engine during operation of said motor vehicle, said method comprising:

• detecting at least one first parameter that is indicative of steering wheel position of said motor vehicle;
• and
• deactivating and activating operation of the start/stop unit as a function of said at least one first parameter;
• wherein said method further comprises measuring time during operation of the vehicle, and deactivating and activating the start/stop unit as a function of time.
