Remark: obviously it works if battery good charged and tem-re of engine is ok(may be some other limits to deactivate this function).

Thanks, that's what I thought, I figured it would be linked to clutch instead of others, but with auto hold + auto start, does it start the engine when you touch the clutch and then release the auto hold when you touch the gas pedal? Otherwise it would start rolling back, no? This is great so you don't actually have to keep the brake pressed like you said when starting as well as coming to a stop.
