When the climate control system is working in cooling mode,
engine performance is reduced and fuel consumption is
affected. To keep the time the climate control system is on as
short as possible, you should do the following :
- To save fuel, turn off cooling mode by pressing the [AC]
button (indicator light goes out).
- In addition, if you open the window while driving, turn off cooling mode by pressing the
[AC] button (indicator light
