Volvo Car Corporation and the environment
• Always dispose of envi-
ronmentally hazardous
waste, such as batteries
and oils, in an environ-
mentally responsible
manner. If uncertain, con-
sult an authorised Volvo
workshop for advice.
• Service your car regularly.
• High speed increases consumption con-
siderably due to increased wind resist-
ance. A doubling of speed increases wind
resistance four times.
These hints will help you to reduce your fuel
consumption without increasing your travel
time or lessening the enjoyment of driving.
Apart from being kind to your car, you’ll be
saving money - and the Earth’s resources.
