Starting and Driving
120
•
Do not tow the tail of the vehicle within
the first 800km
Parking on Flammable Materials
If there are some flammable materi-
als under the vehicle body, once
these materials contact the high tempera-
ture parts, the materials may catch fire. So
never park your vehicle on paper, leaves,
hay or other flammable materials.
Economical Driving
In different driving modes, the fuel con-
sumption difference can reach 10%-15%.
For energy conservation and environmental
protection, please drive in an economical
manner.
To a safety premise, please obey the
traffic rules, and don't interfere with
others and the public traffic order.
1.
Smooth starting and accelerating
When starting and accelerating, the fuel
consumption is quite high. When driving,
you should avoid flooring the accelerator to
start or speeding up the vehicle as much
possible. A smooth starting or accelerating
contributes to the fuel saving.
2.
Keep the economical travel speed.
The economical speed refers to the speed
of 40 to 60 km/h on the general roads and
that of 80-100 km/h on the highway. To a
safety premise, please drive at the constant
economical speed to save more fuel.
3.
Avoid unnecessary braking.
Keep a safe following distance with the front
vehicle and avoid the frequent braking;slow
down at the red lights and let the vehicle
coast with the general press the accelera-
tor, please avoid slamming on the brakes.
4.
For a long time parking, please turn off
the engine
Driving at the idle speed can also consume
the fuel. In traffic jams or a long red light sit-
uations, if it takes more than 1 minute for
parking, turn off the engine: The fuel saved
in just 30 to 40 seconds is much more than
the fuel required for restarting the engine.
5.
Keep the vehicle with the low wind
resistance.
Opening the window when driving at a high
speed will increase significantly the vehicle
wind resistance, leading the higher fuel
consumption. So when the speed is higher
than 80 kilometers per hour, please close
the windows.
6.
Keep a proper tire pressure.
Make a regular check to the tire pressure,
for the too low tire pressure will increase the
tire rolling resistance, which will lead to
higher fuel consumption.
7.
Turn on the air conditioner as little as
possible; the air conditioning operation
will increase significantly the engine
load. Please turn on the air conditioner
when necessary. When driving at a low
speed, you can open windows for venti-
lation. Running the air conditioner in the
internal circulation mode will be more
energy efficient.
8.
Reduce vehicle loads.
The addition of one kilogram extra load will
increase the fuel consumption, so please
regularly clear off the unnecessary lug-
gages on the vehicle.
9.
Take a regular maintenance.
A regular maintenance in accordance with
the relevant provisions can make your vehi-
cle in good condition. The good engine run-
ning state is beneficial not only to improve
the safety of driving, but also to reduce the
fuel consumption.
