The Eco mode is an automatic setting of the car, which aims to save energy and preserve the charge of the power battery of the car. It activates automatically and does not allow the use of some non-primary utilities, one of which is the car radio. Many drivers do not consider it important and prefer to deactivate it, as the protagonist of the tutorial here does: Disconnect the negative pole of the aforementioned battery and reconnect it after a few seconds, or locate the dedicated fuse in the fuse box and remove it. These are the two proposed solutions.
