Air conditioning on/off
●
Switch the air conditioning off when it is not needed. Doing so
can help control excessive electricity and power consumption.
In summer:
In high temperatures, use the recirculated air mode. Doing so will
help to reduce the burden on the air conditioning and reduce
power consumption as well.
In winter:
Excessive or unnecessary heating should be avoided. The use of
the seat heater (

P. 244) is effective to avoid excessive power
consumption.
●
For efficiency, use the Remote Climate Control before departing
while the charging cable is connected. (

Checking tire inflation pressure
Make sure to check the tire inflation pressure frequently. Improper
tire inflation pressure can cause poor power consumption.
Also, as snow tires can cause large amounts of friction, their use on
dry roads will lead to poor power consumption. Use tires that are
appropriate for the season.

Luggage
Carrying heavy luggage can require excessive energy. Avoid leav-
ing unnecessary luggage in the vehicle.
