SUGGESTIONS FOR MORE
Your car's fuel economy is mainly depen-
dent on your style of driving.
How you drive, where you drive, and when
you drive has an
eNect
on how many miles
you can get from a gallon of fuel.
To obtain maximum fuel economy from
your car:
Start gradually and accelerate gently.
Avoid excessive and unnecessary
idling,
Keep your engine properly tuned,
Do not race the engine.
Use the air conditioning (if equipped)
only when necessary.
Slow down when driving on rough
roads.
Always keep your tyres inflated to the
recommended pressure for longer
tyre life and optimum fuel economy.
Keep your distance from other vehicles
to avoid sudden stops. This will reduce
wear on brake linings and improve
economy as extra fuel is required to
accelerate back up to driving speed,
