ECO INDICATOR CONTROL: System Description: Description
VCM calculates the instantaneous ECO operability based on the driver accelerator operation, brake operation, vehicle idle time, and air conditioner operation status and displays this in the instant ECO indicator.
Furthermore, VCM samples the instantaneous ECO operability every second and compares it to the map stored by VCM to calculate the cumulative ECO drivability, and if this value exceeds the set value, then the ECO tree segment is illuminates.
NOTE:
Once the ECO tree segment is illuminated, it does not turn OFF (dim) during the current trip.
NOTE:
The idle time is the status when not driving in the READY state.
