❒
remember that the lower the load, the lower the
vehicle's centre of gravity, making for a safer drive:
therefore always position the heaviest goods
lower down;
❒
lastly, remember that the vehicle's dynamic
behaviour is affected by the weight transported: in
particular, the stopping distances are longer,
especially at high speed.
SAVING FUEL
Some useful tips are given below for fuel saving and
reducing harmful emissions of CO2 and other
pollutants (nitrogen oxides, unburnt hydrocarbons,
Particulate Matter (PM) etc.).
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
The general factors that affect fuel consumption are
listed below.
Vehicle maintenance
Have checks and adjustments on the vehicle carried
out in accordance with the “Scheduled Servicing
Plan”.
Tyres
Check the tyre pressure at least once every 4 weeks:
if the pressure is too low, consumption levels
increase as resistance to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot. The weight
of the vehicle (especially when driving in town)
and its geometry greatly affect fuel consumption and
stability.
