Fuel economy is dependent largely on your

style of driving.

How you drive, where you drive and when you

drive affect how many miles (kilometres) you

can get from a gallon (litres) of fuel.

To obtain maximum fuel economy:

• Accelerate slowly

• Avoid unnecessary idling.

• Keep the engine properly tuned.

• Do not race the engine.

• Use the air conditioning only when neces-

sary.

• Slow down when driving on rough roads.

• Keep the tyres inflated to the recom-

mended pressure.

• Maintain a safe distance from other ve-

hicles to avoid a collision in case of sud-

den stops. This will also reduce wear on

the brake pads and linings.

• Do not carry unnecessary weight.
