ENERGY TIP:
Turn off any electrical items
or accessories (lights, fans, defoggers, etc.) when
not being used. This reduces fuel consumption by
cutting down electrical load on the automotive
alternator. The more electrical items being used,
the greater the electrical “pull” on the alterna-
tor, which causes the engine to work harder and
use more fuel.
