Remember how older cars would come with an "AC" button to enable the AC?

Well, our cars are the opposite. AC defaults on (depending on desired interior temperature), and you have to manually disable it with the "ECON" button. Whereas in older cars, leaving the AC button disabled, you'd run just the fan, in our cars, you have to enable the ECON button to run just the fan.
