▷ Reduction of the heating output and switch-
on duration for exterior mirrors, rear window,

Functions such as seat heating and the rear win‐
dow defroster require a lot of energy and reduce
the range, especially in city and stop-and-go traf‐
fic.
▷ Reduction of the cooling or heating output of
the air conditioner.
Switch off these functions if they are not needed.
The ECO PRO driving mode supports the en‐
ergy conserving use of comfort features. These
