僅 Excessive operation of the heater and air conditioner can increase power consumption
and shorten the driving range. When setting the temperature to 22°C auto, optimal
energy consumption driving is possible. In particular, using a heated seat and reducing
air heating in winter is very helpful. Turn off the heater and air conditioner when heating
and cooling are not required.
僅 Selecting recirculation mode consumes less energy than selecting fresh mode. In the
fresh mode, energy consumption is large because the outdoor air must be reheated or
cooled. When driving with the window open, air resistance increases and heater and air
conditioner usage increases. So close the window completely whilst driving to reduce
energy consumption.
僅 When driving alone, use DRIVER ONLY mode when using the heater and air condition

僅 Do not use unnecessary electrical components whilst driving.
僅 Do not load unnecessary items in the vehicle.
僅 Do not mount parts that may increase air resistance.
