  1. My ECO is actually in 2 places. I have my left digital display on where you can see the avg MPG, and then on the odometer/trip meter, if you press the button to scroll through, you will go through the odometer, trip a, trip b, and then ECO will be displayed. i think you have to have it selected on from the left digital display and then the right display will tell you when you are driving "eco friendly" or not by just putting the word "on" after ECO. now the thing is that i have the V6 and just barely getting on the gas and the eco goes away when i dont think i could accelerate any slower but when i get up to speed, it comes on. i have not noticed any situation where this would come in handy because everyone should already know that you use the least amount of gas at speed when cruising. as for the windows rolling down, i dont remember if i had to program it or if it was programed by default but your car must be locked, then hit unlock twice and keep the unlock button held down when you hit it the second time and the windows will roll down (just the front windows). i remember that my user manual had many options that you could use to program your remote with from unlocking all doors with 1 press to silencing the horn so only lights flash when you lock/unlock the car. I honestly would not wory about the ECO feature. i test drove a honda fit years ago and to drive eco friendly in it, you would have everyone flipping you the bird and honking horns at you because you have to start braking very far back and getting on the gas so slowly that everyone will just get annoyed with you and may even end up causing an accident. Unless you have a Prius or other Eco friendly hybrid car using electric motors and regenerative braking, i would not even bother with it. after all you are driving a vehicle that weighs 5,000lbs or 2.5 tons. engines have to work hard to haul that much weight.
