#1: Economy Mode Active Author: mdstone, Location: South WalesPosted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 9:19 am ---- Yes it's me again (I have lots of problems with my 206), I have this message appear occasionally on my dashboard randomly once I start the car, anyone know why this may be coming on?
#2: Re: Economy Mode Active Author: MrBSI, Location: What's it to you? ? ?Posted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 9:21 am ---- Because the BSI has gone to sleep & shut down the electrical systems.
It means you have turned the engine off & then used the electrics / not locked the car.
Its perfectly NORMAL

This system if very good actually,because sometimes the kids play with the radio with car is off,or you forget it on also with car is off(because all pugs radio go off when you turn off the switch,if the radio was on while driving),so by this it keep the battert strong and well charged for the next start :D,and you will never have a dead battery

Its a timer built in to the BSI unit

I thought on the 206, it's based on Voltage. On other Pug's, it's not?

Depends on what the setting is in the BSI configuration set up.
It can be changed with Peugeot Planet OR even turned OFF.
