ECO drive mode
The Eco drive mode is a function designed to
give the driver the opportunity to drive more eco-
nomically and to help reduce fuel consumption.
When this mode is activated, the following cha-
racteristics are modified:
•
The automatic transmission's shifting points
•
The engine management system and accel-
erator pedal response
•
Climate system settings: certain functions
will be temporarily reduced or deactivated
•
The suspension's self-leveling function
*
low-
ers ground clearance to help reduce wind
resistance
•
Information is shown in an ECO gauge in the
instrument panel to help promote more eco-
nomical driving
NOTE
When Eco is activated, several climate system
parameters are changed and the function of
certain current-consuming systems will be
reduced.
Some of these functions can be restarted
manually but full functionality will not be
restored until Eco is deactivated.
