Active ECO operation
Active ECO helps improve fuel efficiency
by controlling the engine, transaxle and
air conditioner. But fuel-efficiency can be
changed by the driver's driving habits
and road conditions.
• When the Active ECO button is
pressed the ECO indicator (green) will
illuminate to show that the Active ECO
is operating.
• When the Active ECO is activated, it
does not turn off even though the
engine is restarted again. To turn off
the system, press the active ECO but-
ton again.
• If Active ECO is turned off, it will return
to the ECO mode.
When Active ECO is activated:
• Vehicle noise may become loud.
• Vehicle speed may drop.
• The air conditioner performance may
decline.
Limitation of Active ECO opera-
tion :
If the following conditions occur whilst
Active ECO is operating, the system
operation is limited even though there is
no change in the ECO indicator.
• When the coolant temperature is low:
The system will be limited until engine
performance becomes normal.
• When driving up a hill:
The system will be limited to gain
power when driving uphill because the
engine torque is restricted.
• When using sports mode:
The system will be limited according to
the shift location.

OEL049221R
CAUTION
Vehicle speed is limited to 87 mph
(140 km/h) when Active ECO is

ited speed.
