Driving for Better Fuel Economy
Driving habits can affect fuel mileage. Here
are some driving tips to get the best fuel
economy possible:
.
Set the climate controls to the desired
temperature after the engine is started,
or turn them off when not required.
.
Avoid fast starts and accelerate smoothly.
.
Brake gradually and avoid abrupt stops.
.
Avoid idling the engine for long periods
of time.
.
When road and weather conditions are
appropriate, use cruise control.
.
Always follow posted speed limits or
drive more slowly when conditions
require.
.
Keep vehicle tyres properly inflated.
.
Combine several trips into a single trip.
.
Replace the vehicle's tyres with the same
TPC Spec number moulded into the tyre's
sidewall near the size.

maintenance.

Steering
Caution
To avoid damage to the steering system,
do not drive over curbs, parking barriers,
or similar objects at speeds greater than
3 km/h (1 mph). Use care when driving
over other objects such as lane dividers
and speed bumps. Damage caused by
misuse of the vehicle is not covered by
the vehicle warranty.
Electric Power Steering
The vehicle has electric power steering.
It does not have power steering fluid.
Regular maintenance is not required.
If power steering assist is lost due to a
system malfunction, the vehicle can be
steered, but may require increased effort.
If the steering assist is used for an extended
period of time while the vehicle is not
moving, power assist may be reduced.
If the steering wheel is turned until it
reaches the maximum rotation and is held
at that position for an extended period of
time, power steering assist may be reduced.
