Here are the correct methods for using the car's ECO mode: 1. In a car's ECO mode, it can generally be divided into active ECO driving mode and non-active ECO driving mode. The main difference lies in the intelligent control of energy usage distribution (including electricity, fuel, etc.) and reminder guidance. 2. For non-active ECO driving mode, it primarily serves as a reminder and guidance function, teaching how to save fuel, rather than having a dedicated button to turn on or off like the active ECO mode. 3. Most cars adopt the active driving mode. Under this mode, driving at the economical speed (usually between 60 to 90 km/h) can help save fuel, and some cars can even control the air conditioning to save electricity, commonly seen in Japanese and Korean cars. 4. For active ECO mode, there is usually a dedicated control button that the driver can turn on when needed. Generally, the ECO mode can be turned off when the speed exceeds 120 km/h, during idle parking, in N or P gear, or in manual mode. It is especially important to note that there is no need to turn on this mode during uphill climbs.
