STARTING & DRIVING
- Fuel Economy
INSTRUCTIONS TO IMPROVE FUEL ECONOMY :
Your car's fuel economy is mainly dependent on your style of
driving.
To operate your car as economically as possible, use the
following driving suggestions.
Avoid Excessive Idling :
Switch OFF the engine if you have to stop for more than a
minute.
Avoid fast starts & unnecessary stops :
Start off slowly from traffic lights or stop signs to prevent
excessive fuel consumption and reduced engine life. Avoid
unnecessary deceleration (stopping or slowing down) and then
acceleration which uses more fuel.
Always maintain clean air-cleaner :
The amount of air supplied will reduce due to clogged air-
cleaner, resulting in waste of fuel due to incomplete
combustion.
Avoid incorrect tyre pressures :
Under-inflated tyres result in increased running resistance of
the tyres, leading to wastage of fuel.
Always have the engine tuned correctly through
recommended maintenance at an Authorised Service
outlet.
Proper Driving Practices :
Keep a safe distance from other vehicles to avoid braking
suddenly.
Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal. It does not allow full
engine power to be transmitted to the vehicle and reduces
clutch life.
