When restarting out after parking on a

slope:

1. With the transmission in “P” position,

start the engine. Be sure to keep the

brake pedal depressed.

2. Shift into gear.
3. Release the parking brake and brake

pedal and slowly pull or back away
from the wheel blocks. Stop and apply

your brakes.

4. Have someone retrieve the blocks.

CAUTION

Do not exceed 72 km/h (45 mph) or
the posted towing speed limit,

whichever is lower. Because insta-

bility (swaying) of a towing vehicle

−

trailer

combination

usually

in-

creases as the speed increases, ex-

ceeding 72 km/h (45 mph) may
cause loss of control.

Slow down and downshift before

descending steep or long downhill
grades. Do not make sudden down-

shifts.

Avoid holding the brake pedal down
too long or too frequently. This

could cause the brakes to overheat

and result in reduced braking effi-
ciency.

Getting more kilometers/mileage from a

liter/gallon of fuel is easy—just take it

easy. It will help make your vehicle last
longer, too. Here are some specific tips

on how to save money on both fuel and

repairs:

Keep your tires inflated at the cor-

rect pressure.

Underinflation causes

tire wear and wastes fuel. See page
289 in Section 7

−

2 for instructions.

Do not carry unneeded weight in
your vehicle.

Excess weight puts a

heavier load on the engine, causing

greater fuel consumption.

Avoid lengthy warm

−

up idling.

Once

the engine is running smoothly, begin

driving—but gently. Remember, howev-
er, that on cold winter days this may

take a little longer.

Keep the automatic transmission

overdrive turned on when engine

braking is not required.

Driving with

the overdrive off will reduce the fuel

economy. (For details, see “Automatic

transmission” on page 133 in Section
1

−

6.)

Accelerate slowly and smoothly.

Avoid jackrabbit starts. Get into high

gear as quickly as possible.

How to save fuel and make

your vehicle last longer, too
