1ECON Mode
While in the ECON mode, the climate control system
has greater temperature fluctuations.
When the ECON mode is active, the driver’s side seat
heater functions according to the status of the
climate control system. If you want to use only the
climate control system, press the seat heater button
to OFF.
If you select ECON mode, the threshold for the
engine to provide additional power is higher than it is
when the vehicle is in either of the other two drive
modes. Note that if the accelerator pedal is depressed
past the point at which you feel a click, the engine
will start in the ECON mode.
Due to emergency brakes operation or driving
conditions, you may not be able to change the mode.
