Operation of the air conditioning system in Eco drive mode
In Eco drive mode, the air conditioning system is controlled as follows to pri-
oritize fuel efficiency:
●

system may switch to recirculated air mode automatically. This may also
reduce fuel consumption.
●
It is possible to switch to outside air mode at any time by pressing
.
■
Using automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically according to the temperature setting and
the ambient conditions.
Therefore, the fan may stop for a while until warm or cool air is ready to flow
immediately after
is touched.

shield effectively.
