Hi, nice car keepinitsimple!

Can someone please explain to me how the lean burn works on the HX?

I have a lean burn EK Civic (EK3), and the ECONO (i.e. lean burn) light comes on from barely above idle to 2500 rpm in 3rd and 4th and 3000 rpm in 5th. In 1st and 2nd, lean burn is not available.

I am interested to learn about the differences between my car and this HX you got in the US.
