How to Turn Off Peugeot Economy Mode?
What is Economy Mode? In Peugeot vehicles, "Economy Mode" activates when battery voltage drops below a threshold. It limits non-essential consumers to prevent a full battery drain. How to turn it off? There is no menu switch. Start the engine or recharge the battery with an external charger. It is normal for the mode to appear roughly 30 minutes after switching the ignition off. Why does it appear often? - Short trips and stop-and-go driving (insufficient alternator charging time)
- Loose/corroded battery terminals
- Weak battery or low alternator output
Quick fixes and maintenance - Have a charging/voltage test done (battery and alternator health)
- Use a maintenance charger if the car sits for long periods
- Clean and tighten battery terminals
Bottom line: Economy Mode is not a fault but a smart protection feature. If it shows up frequently, address battery health and the charging system for a lasting solution. |
