Abstract

In a motor vehicle having an internal combustion engine, an enabling condition is a function of at least one operating variable, of the motor vehicle and/or of the internal combustion engine. Starting and/or stopping of the internal combustion engine are enabled as a function of the enabling condition. It is provided that the presence of the enabling condition be checked redundantly within the scope of a 3-level monitoring concept.
