Driving in Eco-Pro mode this morning. Started to accelerate on the upslope of the road. A blue colour "shoe-on-pedal" warning light lit up at the bottom right of the rev dial. It disappeared within a minute or so. First time...but what could it be, I wonder?

Nothing at all to do with rolling down hills!!

The blue shoe on pedal icon only appears in eco pro mode and is to tell you that you are accelerating too hard for economic driving.

It's ok. Driving on eco-pro most of the time for the last 4 months. Don't generally go for hard acceleration. Warning light caught my eyes only once with my driving style so I'll see how things go. Been getting around 10L/100Km versus 11.5L/100Km in normal mode. Not really much gain so may switch back to normal mode which is definitely more fun.
